So, I've heard of hypermiling. One question - TX roads are horrible and there is so much windshield damage here because of a variety of things including these big trucks. How much windshield damage do you expect when doing that? For reference purposes, State Farm used to cover windshield...

As someone who has never owned an EV before, I realize that I had not considered my driving habits when thinking about the large v max pack. How much range would one lose if he/she averaged 75-80 on the Highway? I’m not as concerned about my daily commute as I’ll be plugging in every night...

For me, this is a big, “Who cares?”

The other thing too is that a lot of car manufacturers are on delay without much information. For instance, I put down a deposit on a Model X and I keep getting pushed with no information. Of course, it says delivery is expected in January now but I am not holding my breath. As a person who...

That puke green color probably reminds someone of their boat fabric.

So, I had a LR DIsco Sport and moved up to the Porsche Cayenne because I wanted something bigger. I am moving up to the R1S or the Model X because I want 3rd row seats. Plus, the images make it look very Land Rover-esque - more boxy than curvy. It should be significantly longer than a Velar...

I'm cool with Amazon as our house is a weird mix of the Alexa and Apple ecosystems. If the navigation system is good, then I am okay with no CarPlay. It is awfully convenient though.

There is some excellent sleuthing that goes on in this forum. Now, if only someone can tell me why there will be no CarPlay.

I know the following is theoretical because we don't know how many miles the XL pack will provide and how much the XL+ will provide. But, for those previous EV owners (and I know everyone is different), would you pay $5k more for 50 more miles, in general. Second, would you be willing to...

Model X and then Model Y. We won't offroad too much but I find the boxier shape more usable. I just put a deposit on a Model X. Since delivery is only November or beyond, I am hopeful that will give me enough time to decide if I will go forward with the Rivian or not. See if any R1S are...

Thanks @Trandall! I admire all of the early depositers. I am having trouble being patient for a year. Some of these folks have been waiting for three plus.

I am a recent newcomer to the Rivian world having made my deposit in mid-March. I have serious concerns about shelling out what will end up being $90k for an SUV that is made by a new manufacturer to the point that I am considering putting $100 on a Model X or buying a Model Y in the near...

While on balance, I like the R1S better than the Model X, I think if I have to wait 6 months v. 1 year and 8 months, I would lean towards the Model X or maybe even the Model Y as a placeholder.

So, I just placed my DP in mid-March of 21 for an R1S. Realistic chance I will see my vehicle in 2022?
