  1. How warm does everyone’s heated seats get?

    For me level 3 is blazing hot, level 1 I could leave on pretty much indefinitely but it is very comfortable.
  2. New EA Chargers Are Failing in the Cold - Fixed!!?

    Not defending EA, but I did recently charge up at their station in Allentown PA. It was my first and only time so far charging somewhere other than home. Arrived at the station with 10% SOC and batteries warm and ready for charging (highway driving plus the charge was in the nav). It wasn't -6...
  3. Guess I need some snow tires... my R1T hood now has a nice dent (on factory 20" A/T)

    Exactly this! I'm actually shocked that the Rivian performs SO poorly in lower traction situations on DECEL. Acceleration is fantastic! But deceleration can be downright scary. Have experienced the tires locking up on slick road during a fresh drizzle. Obviously the regen should have known to...
  4. What max range calculations is everyone getting?

    I'm right there with you, I don't understand these really high mile/kwh ratings. I'm also 1.75 but only at 1000 miles so far. I chalk most of it up to colder temps and the batteries needing to condition themselves? The couple times that is has been over 55 degrees here I've seen the 15 min...
  5. Official: Rivian IPO priced at $78 per share (@ $77 billion valuation)!

    Ford would just be one example, at least they are profitable. Rivian admits it will be several years before they are profitable and that they have no intention of being profitable but instead intend to grow. The valuations for most auto companies make sense. Tesla, not so much, but they're at...
  6. Official: Rivian IPO priced at $78 per share (@ $77 billion valuation)!

    I guess I'm glad I'm not the only one who just doesn't see this much value in Rivian yet. I just can't see how they could have a valuation higher than a company like Ford and have barely started producing any vehicles. Sure the potential is there, but the risk is just too high (for me) right...
  7. Rivian R1T OWNERS MANUAL Guide is here! ?

    Yes of course, but considering Pike's Peak is surveyed to be 14,115ft tall, and one of the few mountains where you can actually drive up to that altitude; there is probably an outlet up there at 14,108ft. They're saying hey, you can use that in a Rivian! I found it to be a fun thing that Rivian...
  8. Rivian R1T OWNERS MANUAL Guide is here! ?

    Looking forward to using the charger near Mt Rainer's 14,411 summit! :CWL:
  9. Rivian R1T OWNERS MANUAL Guide is here! ?

    Yes, that's what I meant...didn't come out right
  10. Rivian R1T OWNERS MANUAL Guide is here! ?

    Maximum Operating Altitude for the portable charger of 14,108ft is probably an easter egg in a way and a bit humorous. Feel free to charge up at Pike's Peak...but you won't get much regen on the way down if you fill up ;) If any limitation due to altitude, I would guess it be related to thermal...
  11. Range visible in latest Rivian Story

    I doubt they changed the wheels from the Austin event. In that case they appear to be the light 20” ATs
  12. Rivian Guide Contacted Finally! (For Real) ?

    my sarcasm didn't come through. The lack luster communication from Rivian is pretty pathetic...it's sad that you as a Dec 18' order are left with so many questions. godfodder...how did you spend 1.5 hours on the phone with them with seemingly few answers? If there is a lot you are not allowed...
  13. Rivian Guide Contacted Finally! (For Real) ?

    Why not go through with the lease...by the time its up in 3 years your Riv might be ready?
  14. Anyone hear from their Rivian Guide?

    Turns out they were sticking with Gideon's height for now 5/27 is 5' (2+7)=9"
  15. Anyone hear from their Rivian Guide?

    Gideon is 5’ 9”…last info was released on 5/7…probably because the 9th was a Sunday. How tall again is RJ? 6’ 3”?
  16. Insurance cost, which companies will provide insurance?

    I feel like 220% over a typical vehicle is probably a good starting place. I might be pissing in a trough, but I’m in there.
  17. Insurance cost, which companies will provide insurance?

    I called my company months ago, explained I wanted a ballpark figure, got quite a bit of resistance at first as they had no idea what/who Rivian was. Explained some basics like "$90-100k electric truck with 800hp." The R1T is replacing two vehicles for me, it was about 10% more than both those...
  18. Who is Buying This Vehicle?

    I didn’t place my order until early Feb this year, I’m assuming a Summer 2022 delivery on the early end.
  19. Who is Buying This Vehicle?

    Another R1T pre-order here, though I have considered the S several times. Like several of the others here this is sort of a one size fits all vehicle for me. It checks 95% of what I want in a vehicle, and I'm pretty sure 100% is not possible! I wan't an efficient daily driver, that is also fun...
  20. Trail energy use

    Yes, something like that would be great. While it certainly would be quite variable for different drivers, weight in vehicle, trail conditions, etc. With shared data of energy use on different trails they could at least give you a range and as you start driving the trail be able to update it...
