I sent an email through the app last year and got a reply with my service records attached from this address ([email protected] ). You're welcome to try it to see if it's still working.
Drivers rear or passenger front makes the most sense. Lets hope they do a better job at integrating the port on the vehicle. Either behind a light bar or a door like the R3. The placement of the current R2 port, on the rear quarter-panel, on the demo vehicle is just ugly!
I just got my email today asking me to provide an address to ship my NACS adapter. Just to give you an idea of how far behind they are, I took possession of my R1T in June 2022. My serial is in the ......7400 range.
To be honest I like the addition of the SuperCharger network but I don't see...
I debated the same thing before taking delivery and I wish I had stuck with the 20". They are definitely more comfortable to ride on, they give a softer ride than 21s. I'm assuming most of the "first rides" are done with 20's because of this? I've got almost 30,000 miles on my 21" wheels and...
Get PPT. If not for the whole truck, protect the front at the very least. The front collects a lot of bugs and PPT protects all the paint from all that stuff.
Since PlugShare is owned by EVGo (as of last year), I don't find it as reliable anymore. Finding Electrify American and Electrify Canada stations was hit and miss for me.
I didn't try ABRP. Good suggestion.
The Rivian navigation pulled up some Flo and ChargePoint locations but I wasn't sure how fast they were. I was looking for 150kw or better chargers. Before arriving at a charger, I like to look at the app to see the speed rating and whether it's online. I've owned 6 different EVs over the...
As I understand it, the hotspot will be included in the first year, after that it will be a paid service. I'm not sure how long the rest of the connectivity will continue. They'll probably want your data for a while, so they can fine tune their Autonomous driving capability. Also.... I don't...
Took the R1T for a drive to Canada a few weeks after delivery. Some things to be aware of when driving your Rivian in Canada. Most, if not all, can be fixed with OtA software updates. Electrify American / Canada, get your act together!
Anyone who asks me how I like my Rivian, I always reply "I love it, it's 5 cars in one", meaning it's a Truck; Rock Crawler, Sports Car, Luxury Car, EV all in one. One might call it a multi-purpose vehicle that is a master of none but can do many things better than others. I love what Rivian...
FYI....... I found a video of Tom Moloughney reviewing the Wallbox 48a and he mentions chargers that are load sharing compatible at 16:40 in the video.
I'm not an electrician but upgrading to a 400a service in your house seems excessive. I've had my Model 3 for 4 years now and just got my Rivian. I've done a couple videos on my set-up if you want to check them out...
I did a quick video update. Eventually I went with a second Gen 2 Tesla charger with "Power Sharing".

Also, took delivery of my Rivian after 174 days! Got 1200 miles on it already and loving it!
