@srkz Could you explain a bit more how you put it together? I looked at the four amazon links and not entirely clear how it goes together--is part of what's in the photo a part from the truck, or if I just order what you linked to it'll be clear when it arrives? Also, just checking, assuming...

I'm going to attempt the short harness solution and order the Amazon parts. That's amazing. I saw a few questions about the efficiency of 12 volt versus 120 for coolers. Lots of data on how bad 120V is, a few kWh per day overhead. I have a Travoca 45L, fits perfectly under the the tonneau, and...

Ceramic is **** for protection, it just makes cleaning easier, and it doesn't last half as long as they guarantee. I suspect they rely on a) you getting used to the reduced cleaning performance over time and not noticing and b) not able to deal with the hassle of making a claim and coming back...

Is your R1T CCS or NACS? How does it "work" i.e., how does it tell the vehicle to drain DC off the charger, is there anything Rivian does to support it or is it part of the spec for the chargers to be bidirectional at a hardware level?

Oh interesting, , someone says Franklin might be coming out with a bidi charger in the future. First party would be worth waiting for. Sigenergy is interesting. Compelling to have a 25kW charge rate, and they claim they've done it in the US with R1T CCS (I have NACS, wonder if the adapter would...

I can only tell you that my truck was delivered with PPF of some kind on the cargo doors, and it looks like when Rivian used to offer XPEL as an option they'd wrap it to within 1mm of the panel edges (which is fine for clear, and no bueno for stealth). It seems harder to clean than the stealth...

I feel what's tugging at me to go stealth is the glare reduction. I've never been attracted to shiny things, and the R1T has some strong glare at sunset. But I also worry about overly changing the character of the truck. I'm secondarily mostly interested in making the truck easier to wash...

Think about it differently: 20A at 80% is close to 15A at 100% duty cycle -- plenty of 15A devices in the world are better or safer running at a higher continuous current. What I'd like a roadmap on is V2L to home, specifically FranklinWH, which has a port for V2L...

If desperation in posting here to crowd source my thinking wasn't enough, I had ChatGPT estimate what it might look like using my demo patches. I wonder how realistic this is, but I think I like it?

Yeah, that product was the inspiration, but I wanted to try doing it myself for fun. Brain exploder sort of looks like it's not in business, a lot of things are out of date and out of stock, so I wasn't sure if I wanted to place an order. Don't worry, I'm not offended. I was using offcuts of...

2019 Tesla M3 owner with 40,000 miles on FSD. $2500 is a steal for a lifetime (read: at least five years) of improvements in driving automation, and you break even in four years, shorter than the loan you probably got. 2019 FSD was really Autopilot, and it had the same capabilities as Rivian...

I cannot believe that of the thousands of laws we need to be made aware of, one was chosen to be in English and French and in an aggressively conspicuous place on cars that cost over $100,000, or even inexpensive cars. I hate these things, and they're not even removable by owner like mattress...

I'm assuming the PPF that came on the cargo tunnel doors is XPEL? I intentionally scratched it to see how it would react, and I also scratched the stealth that I know for certain is XPEL. Stealth seemed extremely resistant, I couldn't scratch it despite a fairly aggressive effort, and a buffed...

Trying to decide to stealth or not to stealth. It tends to look stunning on other vehicles, but now that I am up against the decision to spend the money and potentially change the look of my truck, I'm feeling a little stuck. Borealis looks very bright and warm lighting and can look equally dark...

Not sure if this is your issue, but I found that I need to be holding the right half of the steering wheel with my right hand in order to trigger UHF, can't hold it with my left hand and use my right hand to trigger without it touching the wheel. I can do it with just my right hand alone, or...

It came, R1T Quad Max Borealis. The teal and bronze and yellow accents are stunning with this color.

Yep, R1T Quad Max Borealis will arrive this Saturday after ordering the last one (at least as of that date) a month ago with the 2% APR. I've never been more excited; every car I've had up to this point has been a compromise on the color. Admittedly, this one is costing me more than the last...
