“Floored”? Really?

The electric charging market is full of “markup to Markdown” Games. Certainly avoid paying retail. For example, with the Tesla superchargers, a ~$12 month membership will get you a nice discount. Most vendors have similar programs except for Rivian. And the pricing displayed in the Rivian...

There is an option to remove all charging stops. It will then show your arrival battery percentage as potentially hashmarks if you would be below zero then you can go back and manually add the stop of choice.

I tend to say just drive it. Or maybe let your wife drive it one or two days a week. A little overage at the end of the lease isn’t the end of the world, particularly if you can minimize it by sharing.

If the discount is the price of the item, then that’s not a discount. I’m not sure I really understand what they’re giving away.

I've had ting washer and splines replaced but not Arms. I've always wanted to whole subframe replaced, but never win that war. The spine replacement seemed to fix the tock sounds for a while, but now i'm starting to hear things again under certain conditions, not all the time. Better but...

Three years ago when I bought my Rivian R1S, I purchased the insurance directly from Rivian. Of course this is nationwide on the back end. At the time, I also added my other vehicle to the policy. Price seemed competitive. Last month I sold the other vehicle and as a result my Rivian policy...

I've got 40k miles on my Gen1 R1S with Ocean Coast interior and it's holding up perfectly. Easy to clean. I live in Coachella Valley, CA where it's extremely hot. 120deg is not unheard of in the summer, so the lighter color was very important. I had a dark R1S with black interior loaner for...

It’s on the Internet, so it must be true.

I recommend you go touch an R2. There are also differences in the tactile feel of the interior and the quality of some of the interior components. Frunk is smaller. No fold down gate on the rear of the R2. Once you’ve sat in & touched one, your opinion might change. Don’t get me wrong...

I looked in the spare tire space on the R2 in Venice. I don’t think it would fit a full-size spare.

Looks like wear and tear to me "Mr Lawyer".

Make a reservation, but it does not seem to be time slot oriented. We had a reservation, but the people behind us did not, and they let them in as well. So reservations don’t technically seem to be necessary.

There was no restriction on doing anything except driving. But I didn’t see anyone checking out the audio.

I sat in the R2 ( front & back) and didn’t notice any space difference compared to the R1.

The dashboard and door materials seemed not as nice as my R1. Although it seemed nicer than what Tesla was putting in their Y vehicles. In my opinion, there’s nothing wrong with the R2. It’s a very nice vehicle. I just feel like I’ve gotten spoiled with an R1 quality interior. My wife, who...

I had a chance to attend the Venice event today. Despite the fact that there was lots of people they seemed to do a good job of trying to get everyone a chance to sit in the car and touch it. I was impressed with the amount of legroom in the backseat. Reminded me of my R1. It seems funny to...

Ambient temp in the garage is about 80. The main long cable does not get warm enough to be concerning. The concern is only with the pigtail cable which I measured at 125deg F today. Too hot to touch is too hot for me, so I reduce the amperage a bit. All great feedback, thanks. But it doesn’t...

Hanging from the NEMA plug. I removed the pigtail and inspected but I don't see any overheating indications. The heat seems to come from the pigtail cable rather than the ends of the pigtail.

120f on my laser gun. That’s getting borderline where you can’t keep your hand on it constantly. No discernible smell.
