  1. Rivian Can’t Take your trade-in if they have to give you money back.

    Thanks for the info,Terry. Doesn’t change the fact they are not equipped to take a trade-in if there’s money going back to the customer.
  2. Rivian Can’t Take your trade-in if they have to give you money back.

    That was my plan, because they would not let me pre-pay the whole 36 month lease. Apparently they have a down payment maximum for leases. But even if I could pre-pay the whole lease out of my trade-in proceeds, they’re still not able to give me the difference back.
  3. Rivian Can’t Take your trade-in if they have to give you money back.

    Nope, they said they’re unable to cut a check for the difference. I assumed it would be two separate transactions, they pay me 68K, and I pay them very large down payment on a new lease, but nope. They can’t do it apparently. What you’re buying has to be more than your trade-in, which obviously...

  5. Question about range trailering a Jetski - R1S

    I tow my Sea-Doo all over California, Nevada, and Arizona. Without the ski I get about 2.3 - 2.5 miles per kilowatt hour on my ā€˜23 quad large, with the Sea-Doo I get about 1.8 to 2.1, depending how fast I drive. Long sections of freeway and even put it in conserve mode which also really helps...

  8. California 2022 R1T Launch Ed, LA Silver/Black, 23k miles, off-road pkg w/Dark 20”. $68k

    When I put on the off-season tires a few months ago, 5K miles ago at this point, I reset the mileage calculation, and as you can see in the picture below, the range numbers for the different drive modes are right around the same as the 21 inch road wheels/tires.
  9. California 2022 R1T Launch Ed, LA Silver/Black, 23k miles, off-road pkg w/Dark 20”. $68k

    5K. Miles on the new tires, I know this cause I just rotated them. I called service and they sent a mobile tech out to do the programming. No questions asked. The AT tires are 116 load rating, the ones I installed are a 115 load rating. I looked it up and it’s about 70 pounds per tire less.
