Hauled this one all the way from Edmonton. Still managed better highway fuel economy than what's on the window sticker.
I don't mind the range on it. I've got exactly one gas bike that can do better for range, everything else gets less than/equal to 200 km. I've also never had a cruiser, but...
The driving experience is...fine. It's on the good end for an economy vehicle. But what's magical is that I'm getting better fuel economy than the FJ or VFR that I'd normally be hauling in the bed, and that's the part that's worth waiting for.
Finally picked it up after nine agonizing months! I actually picked up yesterday, but I was too busy enjoying it to put up any pics. I also threw on a Truxport soft roll up cover as soon as I got home.
If anyone needs data points, my dealer just informed me that mine landed in Calgary today. Should be a week or so to hike it up to the dealer, depending on when they get a truck.

So almost a month on the nose...
If I can find an EV6/Ioniq 5, I can throw on a factory trailer hitch and it would basically tick all of my boxes between the Mach-E and the Mav. But at this rate, the earliest I can expect to get one is same time next year.
I tried getting my name down for some demo units that were kicking...
