That's not a "fact" in my experience. In fact, in the official EA app, under Support > Learn How to Charge, the first step is Park and Plug In. Still waiting for a real report of circumventing plug and charge.

Never ever for me. NFC tap first never worked either, or credit card tap first (as a guest); station screens always say plug in first. I too have not yet tried since the update.

Sorry but EA has never worked app-first for me. I will be emailing EA (Rivian contact form from above page says I have to call, which has never helped me), but also eagerly await a real user report of it working...

Whenever I've used EA, its always been plugin first then tap phone or use app to get membership (or tap card). Sounds like this won't give us a chance for member rate or preferred credit card. ??

Not really a CT laugh but an Electrify America Laugh of the Day. EA apparently uses CTs as repair vehicles, at least in New Mexico. There was actually 2 of them there, had me scared for a minute. The tech guy was nice though. He asked me to switch stations and test it with a free charge because...

In my Gen1 I see warnings starting at 38, which may flip to 39 due to rounding or warming and still show a red warning. IRL that's 40-41 psi via reliable handheld gauges, which is what I often run on some rougher gravel roads.

I've been using my smaller handheld AOSP device (aka "phone") with downloaded openstreetmaps and gpx files. Too bad we can't see even a tenths-mile odometer in off-road modes.

I can't wait for the concomitant center screen delays to go from 5-10s to a minute. Strike that, it won't come to Gen1 so I won't notice. :angel:

The load rating on your website has dropped to 1170 kg. Why? I remember and first post here indicates 1400 kg. That makes it less interesting for off road.

Somewhere in Utah, getting out of camp: Later I reached my max lifetime roll coming down from a hiking trailhead: That is, until I got to Arches Nat Park: Both "honest" pics as I used camera app's level line. I highly recommend Arches 4wd trails. Soft sand with fun but not killer rock...

There's also a new Sparco All-Terrain Sterrato that could be interesting, but no specs and not even on the sparco website.

Then all the vehicle internet traffic goes through your hotspot, which can add up over a month. Many unlimited plans actually throttle (slow) your data downloads after a certain amount, which really screws up the newly frequent map rerouting right before a critical turn! Ask me how I know. B)

Roundtrip from Shoshone RAN used 86% of my max or 121 kwh. More in my DV post.

I'll add my recent experience. Charged to 99% at Shoshone, up 190, down Badwater, back to RAN at 13% of my max pack, or 121 kwh used. Some short side trips, biggest was Echo Canyon used 19.8 kwh up the 11 miles, 6.1 regen down of which 3.6 kwh went into the battery. There are now 8 or 10 Tesla...

Echo Canyon, Death Valley

Supposedly yes on both and traffic looks accurate enough but I don't know just how "live" (current) either is. Charger usage has never seemed updated for non-RAN sites for me even before C+.

Sounds like a great trip! Was there any actual off-road trail or all graded gravel? Still much better than the rim tourist stuff I just did. I'll keep this in mind for the future. I was jonesing to get down but didn't plan or have time this visit. Were the helicopters a bother?

Welcome! I'm interested in your R1S roof sunshade. Thanks!

Vehicle gives only low warnings at 38psi no matter the drive mode, even AT or Soft Sand, or tire selection, no high warnings. :(

Not the OP but I put 3986 miles on mine last winter, non-studded, getting 2.00 mi/kWh on the trip odometer, running at 55 psi cold (temp in the garage in the 40s F, colder air outside countered any driving heat) [edit: maybe moved up to 60psi], mostly highways in Colorado. IIRC the first 100 mi...
