Rough day for my R1S... source: house fire, not vehicle

How do we even know WhisperPickle is real? The name sounds totally made up. Probably AI again…?

True, though not the craziest name I’ve seen from a real poster on here.

Nothing against OP - but the internet sleuthing occurring in this thread has me:

I was being inappropriately facetious, but you are correct, as usual?

I'm just surprised the admins will allow the words " whisper pickle" to be used together without being banned.

I may be wrong but it seems odd, I suspect fake probably AI as AI makes minor errors. On the photo below see the wood in the corner is completely unmarked yet everything behind it is charred and the fire was hot enough to melt car parts but doesn’t even singe this wood. If it’s genuine I obviously hope everyone is okay and my bad.

Something clearly isn't adding up. Whole car burnt to a crisp, and the old wooden structure surrounding it is still standing??? The only way I could imagine such a thing, is if the fire department was on it quick and got the house put out while R1S batteries kept reigniting, maybe?

The fire department will usually drag a burning car out of a garage if it is the cause of a fire.

Maybe it's a new Got Milk ad? (Back left)

I think it's about time that the real WhisperPickel comes forward with the truth!!

Counterpoint:
If your house and vehicle caught fire updating a forum is pretty low priority

It’s comical how many of you expect a random person on internet to provide you with info during what would be a major crisis

That is a very valid point. So why take time to post it at all until after things are settled down?

I’m estimating ~$40K in damage. I don’t think PDR will fix those panels for you this time.

This photo, if real, causes me to be

• Amazed
• Impressed
• Encouraged

If the nickel/manganese/cobalt battery had caught on fire, it would not have been put out. There would be no house or Rivian left to photograph. This is evidence that the high-voltage battery did not ignite. If it can survive a fire like this--I'm amazed, impressed, and encouraged.

Doh!

Sorry that went flying over my head.

Then he shouldn’t have posted if so busy. But he did so comments are legitimate. He can’t even out where in the US he is.
