  1. Accident caught on rear camera - hit by 16 yo on her phone!

    Same! In fact it’s how we got into our Rivian. Our XC90T8 was damaged in a second collision (this time a complete fluke/actual accident) that involved our own trailer. We were coming down a mountain and hit big undulations as the elevation leveled out. Our camping trailer came off the ball and...
  2. R1X ?

    Or perhaps Feb 19 is more mundane like NACS built in… I hope not. I’d still like to get a CCS1 one given how much more convenient it would be for home and even most road trips as Superchargers I’ve seen always seem to be PITA to pull into while towing. We’re still deciding between an EX90 and...
  3. Scamtastic! Be careful out there

    Yeah - reminds me of the trailer scams on CL when I was shopping for a cargo/utility trailer and came across some nice ones that well priced. Some like brand name hydraulic dump trailer for under $900 were too good to be true but others like this were perhaps 60% of going rate and were still...
  4. Key fob no longer standard?

    Oh yeah when I was using our oldest’s Apple Watch I always had access but being Gen1 couldn’t drive with Apple Watch.
  5. Accident caught on rear camera - hit by 16 yo on her phone!

    In a situation like that subrogation can be especially helpful. When we were in our XC90 T8 and were rear-ended by someone while we were stopping for a red light (they claimed it was green but it didn’t change their liability) it also took nearly 2 months to get it fixed. Their insurance was...
  6. Key fob no longer standard?

    We have HomePods and minis around the house so it’s convenient to address Siri and either through HP or other Apple device laying around so I just need to poke my head back in the house and ask it to ”unlock my car” or “open the hood”, etc without having to go find my iPhone.
  7. ABRP says Tri is better?

    ABRP does a good job at estimating based on your actual driving (like Rivian Navigation does and NOT like the “fuel gauge” tha’ts purely percentage based). I would expect they are aggregating based on actual experience. In a way it seems like ABRP is Rivian’s ElectriFi. I’ve signed up for their...
  8. Chromecast vs AirPlay

    Excellent, so CarPlay it is and you can still tread as you wish without having to use it.
  9. Screen mirror your iPhone to Rivian display - via Replica App

    I would also like Apple Maps, Gaia, PlugShare, ABRP, and… eh CarPlay would just be easier and grant all of those apps Including Waze AND works while driving.
  10. Chromecast vs AirPlay

    Ironic you are the only one allowed to tread where you please. You should let others tread where they please as well.
  11. Pilot EVgo chargers *do not* respect discount from EVgo membership

    I’ve heard good things about Bucee’s. It’s a good sign too that MB has partnered with them to deploy their own network. I’m also looking forward to seeing Ionna expand. Hopefully they start moving fast and that RAN gain more momentum.
  12. Pilot EVgo chargers *do not* respect discount from EVgo membership

    Most definitely! I expressly avoid EVgo and I even have deselected them from Rivian Navigation in our R1T and the Rivian App when mapping trips. It’s quite telling that on a few trips we’ve been when I’ve seen an EVgo they look abandoned and the EA around the corner from them or even other...
  13. Pilot EVgo chargers *do not* respect discount from EVgo membership

    And $0.69/kWhr is a bargain compared to what they did to me. Imagine being ripped off at the rate of $1.23/kWhr! And of course they ghost you after they take your money. My first and only experience (I’ve sworn them off and stories like this only reenforce my conviction to avoid EVgo like a...
  14. Possibly the dirtiest charger ever (Tesla). Princeton WV

    This is really bringing back memories from when we used to travel through WV for the holidays. I don’t miss it; it always seemed dreary and sketchy.
  15. Chromecast vs AirPlay

    No, I tried it and all that I see available is AirPlay. The GooCast option never appears as others claim It should. Running iOS 18.2 on 15Pro.
  16. Possibly the dirtiest charger ever (Tesla). Princeton WV

    Not surprising, and I bet they’ve done Leon a solid too and are using the dirtiest of dirty coal to power those Superchargers for extra good measure.
  17. Chromecast vs AirPlay

    The intro screen with QR Code also said Android Devices. Plus it seems I’m not the only one that can’t GooCast from iPhone. The only thing that works ok is YouTube but it’s easier to YouTube from iPhone or iPad; it’s a nice trick to use the main display but not the simplest way to get YouTube.
  18. Chromecast vs AirPlay

    AppleTV+, occasionally Peacock (pay for the month during Olympics), and some YouTube. We used to also have Prime but it was never great and only gotten worse under Jassy. We also have free subscriptions through our public library.
  19. Chromecast vs AirPlay

    Right, that’s what I thought too and looked around for what I might be doing wrong. Plus quite disingenuous for them to say support for over 3000 Apps in their press release for it when it’s only for those with roids. Plus they had pitched it as one of the reasons for signing up for Connect+...
