It's strange how some people have entire different experiences. With my Gen1 Rivian No AEB braking - This is extremely tense braking that I've only experienced once in my life with a Jeep Wrangler going into a parking garage. The Jeep thought it was going to hit the wall and slammed on the...

The Rivian Gen 1 use Mobileeye EyeQ4 Mid for for the AEB. As far as I can tell it cannot leverage the Cameras around the vehicle for AEB. This is also why the dashboard only renders things in front of the vehicle. Your accident is really only relevant to Gen 1 vehicles.

If it can't charge in 2-5min then 30min or more is perfectly fine by me. I'll just eat lunch if its 30+ minutes. So I don't really understand the obsession with slightly faster charging speeds.

EXCEPT the CyberTruck. That's why the sales of the Cybertruck are off the charts. :P

I'm not going to do EMDR therapy for my Tesla Delivery Experience. The checklist will be at the ready for my R2 with Lidar Delivery. My checklist: Check Charger Door Alignment Play Apple Music for 15 minutes and verify that it does not stop. :)

I'm pretty sure we're already in that sad future. If you look at dating, friendships, employment, etc. On social media we stopped having conversations despite using social media to socialize. It's not a substitute because its typically filled with hostility. The content of them is nothing...

That's part of it It's blissful not having to talk to anyone. You don't have to worry about the driver being sick. In an Uber I always crack open the window just in case. No tipping You don't have to check your rating as there is no rating. At least not yet. Would be amusing to get rated by a...

Yet, I'm still going to pick a Waymo over an Uber. Last time I was in the Uber we did the "Who farted Glances" as it suddenly stunk. I made a record of my Uber Score as I was curious if he would blame me.

I do plan on cross shopping the R2 with some BMW options so I'll make sure to test the software first. As much as I mock the Rivian Software I do recognize that in a way its saving Rivian as that's what VW is getting with their massive investment into Rivian.

Lots of people prefer Apple Maps over Google Maps. It ultimately depends on where you're at, what you're doing, and what kind of interface you like. There isn't a universally preferred choice.

if that was the case Rivian would definitely have car play. Haha. I do get your point. Manufactures rely on carplay to avoid having to fix their crap. I'm just irked that Apple Music keeps pausing. How many updates will it take to fix Apple Music?

I didn't have much issue with the post aside from the car play stuff. Why even reserve a Rivian if car play is on the top of your list of wants? Rivian leadership has always been crystal clear that CarPlay Support was out of the question. I could understand if the poster said they reserved it...

I'll be cross shopping the two. To be honest most of my off-roading desires are unfulfilled fantasies. I've barely taken my R1T off-road and nothing I've done would be difficult for either vehicle. Rivian's strengths are primarily with Software (EXCEPT apple music), and the entire ownership...

Not sure which part to be jealous of. The wife with a 4 hour bladder or 300 miles of open road that you can drive at 75mph. In any case that will require an EV with 400-500 miles of range if you want to do it every year of the month.

One thing that I would caution you about is not to get too caught up in the current L3/L4 requirements as these are subject to change. The assumption they seem to be making with L3 is that it would remain as a traffic assist. The current requirements make sense for a traffic assist system. For...
