My biggest complaint about the speed is just that.. why not just tout your product features instead of shitting on everyone else’s. If you have to just say better than industry standard etc.
When you're dealing with a person with a huge ego, that's what happens. I've never understood that about RG.

I’ve never been angry, but pointing out the double standards and irony is great fodder.

Yet other guys here want to see me get hit by a bus, as recently as this afternoon, over a UTV they won’t buy 🤣.

But yea I’m the problem.


I believe you meant to say "A UTV they can't buy"

because it does not exist in the public realm

Well, you guys can still get your Cold Weather Bundle in time for Christmas! Speed just posted on Facebook that they are still available!

Disclaimer - they didn’t state Christmas of what decade

they don't need a excuse. They are giving real delivery dates. If its 6 months out it arrives in 6 months. Henry Ford III is also smart enough to NOT go on social media and shit on the competition or tell buyers it gonna be by 'XYZ' date.
Henry also doesn't ask a NON refundable deposit. He actually doesn't even take them.

Maybe stick to Tesla?
We've seen many peoples Fords arrive late due to supply chain issues. There are thousands sitting in storage facilities still.

You just tried to order one and can’t for seemingly any amount of money.

Seems the supply chain issues plaguing Speed are also affecting everyone else to varying degrees..

Tell that to the CyberTruck folk. 3 years in and the public can’t even see, touch, or sit in one of those.

Yes sir, what sucks is if they swap the pci or rugged for something else that you and others have already paid. So either something bigger is going on or they are going to change the product to something else

Well speaking to PCI today, it's not them, they said they have pallets of stuff for the Speed's and nothing was cancelled. Thats direct from PCI today.

I'd order the Bundle if a Hat was included. 😁

Ohh or wait is this a Cold Weather Bundle you speak of ?

That’s super interesting! I will laugh if this turns into another Hastings Building for lease rumor.

I don’t recall, can you get a PCI pumper with the car I know you could get Rugged.

Yep, my company isn’t buying that excuse anymore. We are cancelling orders (mega dollars) for companies who want to work and get shit done.

It’s amazing when people threaten to walk away from 500k+ single order how fast parts suddenly become available.
I was talking with my uncle this morning and pricing came up. He said yeh Covid raised a lot of stuff during shortages but we both agreed there’s some who figured out have the supply and material but are limiting what gets released and can now just keep pace for demand and get top dollar vs make alot of parts then sales slow and price reduction happens.

He’s in dump truck heavy equipment industry. He has trucks to maintain and also hydraulic stuff. He pays a good price for things now says he can get what he needs without big wait but it’s double now too.

“We need to see pictures of 42 full containers and the shipping manifest!!. And what are the boat captain’s qualifications?” - Speed unowners support group
Well if you can get the name of the ship I’ll track it for you it’s got to be one of these

Rumor has it. Speed/Robby burned PCI and Rugged. They are having Baofeng build the radios. There will be no credit given no matter which radio option you chose and there will be a price increase.

I have more inside information. I will let it drip drip drip.

All you idiots who bought a Speed car are in for a rude awakening.
