I watched a Project Farm episode and this was their top products:

I clay barred the car first and then applied the. Is way better than before I did this. The car stays cleaner longer.
Not that I am ready to do this yet...have only had the truck one year and 15K miles...but I will likely do it in a year or two.
Is this able to be easily done yourself with a pressure bleeder? I do this on all my cars/trucks every 2 to 3 years. Only issue I ever had was on my Hyundai SantaFe...
Thae max crrent that the AWG 6 Romex will support is 55A...as you stated. 80% of 55A is 44A.
With my Wallbox, I can set it from my app. Not that I am promoting wallbox, I hate it.
From the car's control panel, you can also limit it to 44A.
I just went on a 7 day trip and it wasn't until the last day that it showed that it had dropped 1%.
I have a Gen 2 if that matters.
As far as service, they opened a new service center near me. 3.8 miles away. I can put my bike in the car and ride back home
I would consider the GM truck if it wasn't so big. I already have a 3/4T GM truck for towing my trailer but I love the Rivian for its shorter length but I can still tow my two boats for the short distance I need to. I will always have an EV in my life from now on. I hope Rivian makes it. I love...
Don't get me wrong...I love LifePO4 batteries. I have two I made for my travel trailer. When Rivian designs in a lithium battery with the charging circuit that goes along with it, I will welcome it.
Here are the two batteries I made myself and 3D printed the enclosure.
If it gets above the voltage that the BMS start to balance at which is typically a little above 14V. Most battery tenders just float charge a battery which is a much lower voltage. You need to use a true LiFePO4 battery charger.
The way the wires are soldered onto the BMS. The crappy way they mount the battery cells in the case. The sealant they use to mount the BMS. A quality battery has a fixture inside the case that holds the cells and the BMS.
The car's charging is not setup for LiFePO4 batteries. After a while...
