  1. Offroading an EV

    That's kind of my thought too. It would make me nervous to rock crawl, not that we have much of that in Florida anyways.
  2. Offroading an EV

    Has Rivian stated that punctures through the battery pack will be covered under warranty? I have read several stories of this on Tesla forums and Tesla does not cover it under warranty. The owners have had to file insurance claims to cover the replacement.
  3. Roll Call for the App - Android versus iOS

    iOS currently has about 57% of the total U.S. market. Also, the share of iPhone users increases as you increase household income. Considering these are luxury vehicles, I would expect iOS to be more popular than Android.
  4. Rivian IPO?

    Do you guys think it would be a traditional IPO or one of these reverse merger SPAC's that we are seeing most of the EV startups use?
  5. Article: Tesla all but confirms Cybertruck production delay until 2022

    This quote from their VP of Engineering is not exactly reassuring that it's anywhere close. I may be in the minority because I think the Cybertruck is awesome, but for now it has a lot of "too good to be true" specs when you add them all up.
  6. Rivian raises another $2.65 billion of investments. Company valued at $27.6 billion!

    So now over $10 billion in funds raised before delivering a single consumer vehicle. RJ’s PowerPoint skills must be on point ;)
  7. 1st deliveries in November says my Rivian Guide. Communication from RJ expected today

    If true, something unexpectedly went wrong. The last delay was only 1 month. This delay is 3-4 months depending on how you look at it.
  8. Rivian Guide Contacted Finally! (For Real) ?

    My guess is this CS rep stated 300+ miles because that's what the website says. The chat reps will probably hear about the EPA number the same time we do.
  9. New competitor: EdisonFuture

    Looks like another company put together a nice rendering and will now hope to hit the investor lottery. I can't take any automotive startup seriously until they announce their first billion in funds raised. See the Atlis Truck frauds.
  10. Should Rivian have a big delivery event?

    Tesla just had a live streamed delivery event for the recent Model S refresh. It was quite underwhelming but it did generate a lot of hype. I'd love to see Rivian do the same. Unfortunately it just doesn't seem like their style. Do you think they will? Should they?
  11. Electric Ram Truck by 2024

    There's a bad joke in here somewhere about who will be first, Ram or Rivian?
  12. When is more detail on Driver+ going to come out?

    I stand corrected. Even still, 3 months is a far cry from 5 years.
  13. When is more detail on Driver+ going to come out?

    This is false. I just bought a 2021 Suburban for $75k in February and it came with a grand total of zero months of Onstar.
  14. When is more detail on Driver+ going to come out?

    I don’t consider supercruise an autopilot system yet. supercruise is limited to pre-approved interstates. And you need to subscribe to their onstar service for it to work on the 2021 Escalade. I really hope rivian doesn’t take this same approach.
  15. When is more detail on Driver+ going to come out?

    this is news to me. I recently bought a 2021 suburban and none of the American automakers had those functions on their flagship SUV’s. They have adapative cruise control and my buddies new Kia has very nice lane keep assist, but I haven’t seen something that I would trust for hundreds of miles...
  16. When is more detail on Driver+ going to come out?

    FSD might be a fraud but the highway autopilot stuff is amazing. 4 plus hour road trips are a breeze. My Tesla is AP1 which was launched pretty early in the Model S lifespan. If Rivian can just start by matching the Tesla AP1 capabilities then I think that will be a huge win. That would already...
  17. If the official EPA range is....

    I understand exactly what it’s telling me and how to interpret that data. That doesn’t change the fact that it is consistently wrong. If I start with 200 miles tomorrow morning on the estimator I will never reach 200 miles in normal driving conditions. I just went and checked my trip odometer...
  18. If the official EPA range is....

    Our experiences with the onboard estimator couldn’t be more different.
