For the R2 viewing on November 20 in Venice, do I need a reservation? Also, can I sit in the vehicle?
You can just show up and check it out. Chances are you won’t be able to sit in it, they have been strict about that.
I need someone to take their EVs from the west coast to the east coast in one go and try convince me on buying one ;). Note: I normally drove 14+ hours per day to some snowboarding resort from TX or either driving straight to Orlando or LA in my ICE car.
Watch out of spec or gjeebs on YouTube. Both have done cross country.
