It has been that way now for at least a year. The added CarPlay is nice plus the most recent update puts Apple Maps with the speedo.

Totally agree with this one. In the Polestar 2 you can enable or disable heat and or cool modes.

Warranty of what specifically? Rivian has to prove the battery was an issue to deny warranty. But as per usual it seems most manufacturers are just bullies even the new ones.

I remember seeing a patent from Rivian that enabled the pack to switch between 400v and 800v.

This is not necessarily true as the ohmmu has a feature that protects itself from too low of battery discharge. This has helped me when my R1 decides to have a brain fart and not charge the 12v.

Or long enough downhill to have limited or no regen. Then you need brakes sadly.

What about using the app on the phone for XM? Thats what I do and the subscription isn't tied to the car. So when I have to rent a car I have it still.

My R1T has died 3 times and twice it was plugged into Level 2 charging. I would push back on that charge.

i recently installed this height. I like the height in theory. But in practice I have a few issues. First, the camera is partially blocked and only shows the bed. Second, I have a low rumble which seems like it’s new air turbulence coming off the spoiler because of the gap. Third, long lead...

Yes from shore power please not on board juice.

New Leases maybe?

I have had a ticket in for months and is being addressed along with numerous other items.

As is lithium. There are numerous articles now calling lithium the new oil. One way companies ares extracting this resource is through pumping brine into the earth to extract the lithium. This process has been directly compared to extracting oil from shale rock. So how is it different. Oil...

Right recyclable. But the strip mining has long lasting and so far permanent damage to the earth.

All I am saying is EV is not as clean as it’s made out to be. When they mine for batteries it leaves a wasteland. I also think that some of the way they are getting oil today is not great either.

This is exactly why they made this truck. We will be ordering one for our business.

is the inline 6 just for the gas only option. Also, show me how mining for limited minerals around the world is better for the environment than oil.

My guess is it will be similar to a backup generator. X hours change the air filter, oil filter, etc. not bad to do.

Great write up and information on your trip. It looks like the cost would have been more for “fuel“ if the RAN was not free. If you took the average cost of charging and carried to the free ones then electric fuel would be around $375.

Yep…which is why I moved on a quad large. In 4-6 years Rivian will most likely have what I put money on 4 years ago in Nov. 2018.
