I thought there wasn't a 7/5 build week because the Rouge was shutdown?

So I got home to my truck and ordered stuff from Amazon to meet me at home.

After extensive research, I have decided this design provided a significant CD improvement. The rounded sides and top allows it to shed air friction much easier. By my estimates, this should have added anywhere from 10-20 miles of range, and I think that’s being conservative.

After installing it, my wife goes. I don’t like it. I asked her why and she goes “Now I have a little little dick on my side too” We’ll played Mrs Yellow Buddy. We’ll played..

team 7/11..... I got an updated VVR today. What's been your experience (if you have used VVR) around the updates below? for example, I'm not sure what Launch Readiness is and has signoff been significantly after ETA dates or fairly close. I welcome all inputs if you've had history of VVR's through your production & delivery cycle.

Your order currently shows In Production
Produced-Rouge Electric Vehicle Center, MI-ETA Pending Final Launch Readiness
Sign Off Expected Summer 2022-Status Update ETA Aug-20-2022.

It means you’re stuck in Area 51. From there it depends on if you’re going by rail or convoy. It took me 3 weeks after I got out of Area 51 to delivery. But some recent folks seemed to have been able to get out and delivered within the week

I didn't check VVR until I was 'Shipped' but I imagine it's a generic status for some step after being built but not actually on a Ramp to leave REV-C. Perhaps like a final QC process. What step are you on the vehicle order tracking site? Built but with no date?

I'd get someone to paint that like a mini-fig Darth Helmet.
