4 seat speed UTV

Can’t wait for independent views

When the ready for consumer version emerge, I can't either.

 

[Dirty Air]

I was a little surprised how small it was. There was people sitting in it and they fit… but damn I don’t think my fat ass would want to be there.

Back seats are made for kids and small wives....Something I have neither of! ....I'm glad the old battle ax doesn't read this!

RD, Speaking of 2 seaters, did you hear anything from your buddy on wanting to unload the pre order that we spoke about last week?

I wasn't able to get the other two I was trying to acquire... So if I didn't get them, I can't give him one, which means he isn't gonna sell his.

Understood, Thank you for trying. If anybody else hears of one please let me know.

Live stream tonight-

Big surprise! RG said the show cars are preproduction and all the concerns folks have will be addressed by the time these go to final production. The team has a 200 item punch list of little items to address and have been addressing since getting the preproduction cars.

All the problems with the chassis welds will be tuned up and the door molds will be adjusted before production. They have fit and finish details to dial in still, and they are making the tailgate cup holder larger as well. They are very happy with all the suspension welds.

Car electronics are ready for many option accessories. Front and back cameras, tire pressures, tire temps, belt temps, etc. Some of these options were built into the preproduction cars. Every car will be wired for those accessory sensors, they will just plug in.

RG says bolt heard round the world fell out of the cage fixture, landed in that pocket and got welded in by the robot. The team thought about grinding it out before the cars got to the show, but just left it in.

I am going to call BS on that. There shouldn't have been a gap in the first place for the "headless bolt" to fall into. That was placed to fill that gap, no other way around it.

I don’t really believe him how it got there either, nor do I care. I’m just telling you what he said. I‘m sure there won’t be any bolts in any of the cages delivered to customers. To think otherwise you’d have to be an idiot.

They should have just ground it out when they saw it.

Oh and he said if you are #1500 and below they are not accepting any more order changes. He said #1500-3000 you are about 30 days behind that.

 

[Wizard29]

So being in a sales position, he said what he'd need to say in order to sell cars. Wow. That was crazy of him.

Robby said car's 0-1,500 cannot be reconfigured, but can still add factory installed accessories.

Get the wax out of your ears son!

I have a real hard time believing the last part.. LOL. As in I'm just gonna say I don't believe it at all.

the rest of it sounds good.


So now that we have a ton of little things we can add to the displays like belt temp and tire pressures.. How much do they cost? Will they be available in the configurator? Should I just call and say I want all of it? Do they offer a package deal like AMG? Shut up and take my money!!

Yea that was a dumb comment.

I may call them and ask about the plug n play accessories because at minimum I want the belt temp. I don’t need tire temp on a play car.
I think all this will be out after the cars come out though.

I thought I heard it was tire pressure sensors?

 

[LargeOrangeFont]

He said tire pressure and temp capabilities are built in. I’m assuming those would be 2 separate sets of sensors.

@LargeOrangeFont

It does look like just the top was welded in, so the fallen bolt theory is plausible.

A (good?) field repair would have welded both sides of the bolt.

Just an observation.

News ALERT…..

SPEED CAR PRODUCTION WILL TEMPORARILY BE PUT ON HOLD…

It is almost as if some of they delay is so they can acquire all the materials and parts before they start.

Every other prediction you’ve had on the assembly process hasn’t been accurate... why start now?

They are doing production runs

Agreed. Even if someone put it there for some reason, the fit of that gusset was fine on the car RG showed last night and there was no bolt. I think it is safe to say that is not going to be an issue long term.

Kibbetech has upped the off road community big time with the shit they’re building out of that shop. Seeing these arms built on a CNC machine is legit. I think LeDuc is running them also. Can’t fathom what they cost either lol

Kibbie making those?

Kibbie has been building a ton of them, but I believe these were built in house due to his last trailing arm failure... Caused his DNF.

Kibbie built these. He’s been posting the Speed vids on his Insta page.

I know they have been doing it on the front, didn't know their links were billet too. Robby's is certainly more bling

 

[Flying_Lavey]

LSK made a couple sets. I have no idea for who but they were badass!

 

[Bpracing1127]

They have been doing that for years. They are usually covered in carbon so dirt doesn’t pack in.

Wrong. There are a couple bolts in my bitcoin, and they seem to be made of pot metal.

So talked to my friend today who has an order in the second run according to him





Even if he starts production in 30 days



It takes a min of 5 weeks to get a conex shipped stateside right now and only if you paid extra for speedy 5 week shipping

It’s gonna sit on the coast with 70 other ships

It will take a min of a week to clear customs

It will take a week to get a transporter to get haul it to a dealer

It will take a week for a dealer to uncrate and PDI the unit before you can pick it up.


So a min of 8 weeks of the ship can get unloaded right away


More like 10-12 weeks.

Annnd magically that is exactly what they are saying, and what I have been saying for the last 4 months. 3 months after production starts we will have cars.

And the cars are being built in Texas

That's been clearly stated at least 100 times within the contents of this thread. Either somebody can't read, isn't reading, doesn't believe you, or know where Texas is geographically located.
I can't wait to learn which of those is true

Does Texas not have it's own ports? I would have thought they would ship directly to their instead of Long Beach?

RD

 

[RiverDave]

The container ships don't go to any of these ports?

[RiverDave]

BYW just got a call from speed because I have to configure both my lower numbered cars by Friday. (Already done).

I asked them if they would ship to Long Beach or Texas since he was on the phone.


I will give you three guesses as to where they are shipping to and the first two don’t count. Lol.

I’d imagine parts will be shipped to LA and driven by road or rail to the assembly plant.
