Define obstruction.
Yes it blocks some, but then again it’s a screen showing everything in front of you.
My dream would be to swap out the rivian cameras and use those natively as well as use center screen for interface.
Think rivian would have to open source gen 1 stack. Doubt that will...
initial thoughts:
Finally got it installed. Decided not to wait for new harness and mag holders. I usually park in my garage anyways.
Took over an hour to finally get the damn connector in. Damn these big hands and floppy harness.
98% awesome test drive. I’m gonna love this thing. Did trigger...
Don't you just have to make sure its locked via the UI screen to charge?
When I start hearing the annoying low charge sound, it seems like its unlocked.
Haven't bothered to see what the default state is after a update or soft reset or hard reset, but assuming one of those would be the culprit...
That 4-6 week lead time is going to seem like forever now.
Sounds like I'll be glad I have a '22
Started poking around in github and reading discord as a distraction :)
recent unofficial data point:
I did a San Diego to Mammoth ski trip last week and got 1.9 average for the whole trip according to trip A. Had a rack on top with skis, kids, fully loaded up with stuff for a week. I have rock sliders too. Drove all highway in low and all-purpose ~75+ mph. I used...
Literally this. I did feel a little dirty at Inyokern doing it. Then realized Tesla subscription price plus a combo meal while I waited was the same price as RAN charging.
honestly think its some version of alexa app / spotify account / rivian account potentially using different emails/users for each. I'm guessing they were using the wrong authorization token or a stale token in certain scenarios
The porpoising was greatly improved with a software update (was that summer? can't keep up)
Honestly would love to be able to roll back to the original 2022 software and show people how rough we had it.
Then again you could drive it like you stole it from any drive mode. Kind of miss that...
It's faster to drive faster.
let's say
80mph is 1.8
60 mph is 2.0
driving 80 miles
its 20 min difference in drive time
and around 4.44 kw difference in energy
Fast charger going 135 would only be 2 extra mins.
Also you'll be slightly deeper in the battery which equates to faster charging...

Hope to hit Lee Vining, CA this ski season to get to double digits.
Maybe Truckee if I get ambitious. Joshua Tree would be nice, though the Tesla chargers worked great on...
