  1. Tapping out as well, goodbye Rivian...

    Just did the same. Ordered an F150 lighting it comes in this weekend. Went with pro power and standard range. It’s going. Be a down grade on creature comforts and handling. This is my version of going back to basics for an EV. Wanted to get out before the market gets just more and more...
  2. Whole House two way wall charger update?

    This is my main reason for saying goodbye to my rivian this weekend. Replacing it with lighting with the 9.6kw pro power - so I can power my house during power outages. I’m over either running extension cords or having to roll my 11,000 watt generator out and plugging in and getting gas. It’s...
  3. Conserve mode on 2025 Tri-motor?

    Never drive in conserve mode. Smoked my tires. All purpose with set ride height at middle. That’s the way to go. Also rotate my tires every 5k.
  4. New "Steelie" Wheels for Rivian R1T / R1S launched and in-stock at EV Sportline!

    So want to swap these out for my R800. I had steel wheels on my old tacoma and loved it. Steel wheels forever.
  5. NACS Adapter arrived

    I’m on the other side of spectrum. Got the 2nd email on July 19 filled it out the info same day. So far nothing. NorCal.
  6. Shout out to San Jose service center

    Love San Jose service center! I dropped off my car for a the new upgraded cover while I went on vacation and they fixed it in a timely manner and then charged my car up for my return trip. Parked it outside of the gate so I could pick it up after hours.
  7. NACS charge port ( SAE J3400 )

    If they refresh the same model year with the NAC they are going to have to bundle first round of cars with the adapter. No one will want them. If they ever offer V2H. I’m fearful that gen1 will get lost in the shuffle and the charging standard change. I just want 220 plug to power my light...
  8. RIP 21” wheel

    The 21” replacement wheels will only cost more to replace as fewer Rivian’s will be using them.
  9. EV use can be more expensive than gas

    California being the exception - gas is currently hovering at 7$ a gallon near me.
  10. Tri-Motor and Premium Trim added to R1 VIN database

    Mark my words…. Rivian will release a tri motor with more HP and faster rolling or whatever 0-60. Minds will meld.
