Is it me or does it seem like most of the late allocations on RL are ordered in UV? Looks like it from the recent deliveries here and on other threads.
I love the color, but surpised so many people picked that color in the last wave of allocations vs previously. I remember dealers saying it was/is the rarest of the 4 colors.

Oh just you wait...

But seriously... I think you're right. Seems like LO and UV are the most commonly seen on this board. Not sure if that's truly how it plays out or not though.

There was a poll earlier on this topic of color. Lava Orange was by far the most ordered. Least was Silver. White and UV were close second and third. I believe people had to see others get UV and like it before they had similar courage. I don't regret it now having seen mine in the flesh. Jon in Delaware

Yeah... though... I wonder how the production numbers look now between the 4 standard colors...?

Will you be available to pick it up or are you busy doing something else?

Fortunately, I do have availability tomorrow afternoon. So I'll definitely be able to get it tomorrow!
But...I'm trying to get there to see it come off the truck. If it comes in the AM I'll miss it as I have a meeting I need to attend.

However, I'm so glad it came a week early versus the original estimated delivery dates of 2/10 then 1/27. I leave for business for 5 days on 1/29. So if my plane goes down, I'll have driven my RS!!!!
