  1. R2 Performance vs. Model Y Performance acceleration comparison: 0-60, 50-90, 1/8 mile, 1/4 mile, 75-0 braking

    Pretty irrelevant. Do you really notice the 0.# sec between any vehicle in the real world? Amazed if your purchase decison is based on these fractions of a second.
  2. Warning, this is a rant. I hate that they got rid of basic voice commands

    I don’t think the answer is regulation. Hard to regulate and reinforce, and some wise ass lawyer will find a way round it. The best way to get a company to not do this stuff is for the consumer to vote with their feet. Buy a car from a company that doesn’t do this. A savvy competitor will see...
  3. Ridiculous Spare Tire Policy

    Fun fact: in the UK, it is not a legal requirement to carry a spare tyre, but it IS against the law if your spare tyre is worn/bald.
  4. New California law regarding replacement tires [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS]

    They probably know all this. But what they have done is create a whole new, massive government department (so lots of new jobs). It’ll be one big inefficient waste of oxygen but it keeps the unemployment rate down. I’ll stop there ….
  5. R2 front side marker RIVIAN badge just tape?

    either way, looks rubbish.
  6. R2 semi-active Suspension on Performance Trim

    For round town steady driving, it won't make any difference and not worth paying the extra.
  7. R2 Delivery Day Thoughts

    I sometimes wonder whether car dealers (or sales people in general) ever reflect on their own experiences of purchasing something big, and then figure out what went well ( and do this) and what didn’t (and avoided it). FWIW, my purchase of a Tesla took me 40mins in and out. Granted, I kinda...
  8. North Carolina All weather floor mats ($50)

    Local pick up (Charlotte, NC)
  9. R2 Performance in One Lap Track Test (Out of Spec)

    lets be honest, pretty irrelevant test. I'm sure it was fun though.
  10. North Carolina Sold: 20" AT wheel & tyre for sale

    Has done no more than 7.5k until rotated out and place in the truck bed (where it remained until I sold the R1T)
  11. Switched from R1T (Gen 1 Quad) to a Ford Bronco

    I don't think many people in the US really care about emmisions or saving the environment. They like the idea of being green and if you ask them whether it's a good idea to 'save the planet' they'll always say yes... provided it doesn't inconvenience them. So they'll happily run a big gas...
  12. R2 Towed 24 hours In (after charging issues at Tesla Supercharger)

    Have you tested a Tesla (3 or Y)? Do that before you make a final decision on
  13. R2 Pet Mode Concerns From Owner's Test

    Is this not a bit concerning that R2s are being rolled out and something relatively basic is going wrong already??
  14. R2 Owners - what's the official treadlife/warranty on your tires?

    Got 30k miles in my R1T with the stock 20" ATs. Rotated them every 7-9k (including the spare in the bed)
