  1. Rivian Wall Charger Installation

    Save (a little) wiring distance. Mount the main body of the unit on the ceiling about 6' forward of the garage doors and between Bay #1 and Bay #2 (I assume that you are numbering your bays left to right). You can buy a "socket" for the "nozzle" pretty cheap on Amazon, mount it where you "were...
  2. Will R1 automatically accept charge after a power outage to the EVSE?

    Yikes...that's an Eaton breaker (not known for being crap or generally starting fires). Please pay attention to what this man said ^^^^^^^^^
  3. What's this thing? Anyone order an aftermarket spare tire yet?

    I have, in another life, successfully used a high-lift jack several times as a "poor boy winch". Stuck, unable to do anything but spin tires (two wheel drive or four)...all you need is an anchor point and a strap, chain, or rope to pull it forward or backward...one "jack travel length" at a...
  4. Toll Tag Transponders / Rivian Windshields

    Not attaching it or peeling it off and putting it on a different car "ist verboten" in Texas. I have my TXTag mounted beside the windshield camera. Out of view of the driver (the mirror blocks it) and low enough to be out of the "shading" on the top of the windshield. Works fine there for me.
  5. Where to buy a Rivian license plate frame?

    Not a fan here of paying to advertise for someone. I bought a pair of black silicone no-logo frames that slip around the edges of the plates...about $7 on Amazon.
  6. Any Electric Running Boards for R1T coming to market soon?

    Wow...not a small company. International in fact. I doubt that the guy answering the phone is high up in the pecking order. It might be interesting to see what the response would be if you forwarded this thread to [email protected] As a California based company, it's not highly likely...
  7. Gear Guard missed collision while parked

    Give HIS info to YOUR insurance company. Years ago I was smacked badly by an uninsured motorist. My insurance company repaired my car (minus the deductible) and went after him. I never had to do anything else. He started paying them back. The "first money" that the insurance company recovers (in...
  8. What Max Amperage to Consider for Home Charging? (40, 48, 80)

    You can pay for a hell of a lot of non-off-peak kWh for the cost of even a smaller DC charger.
  9. Interesting questions or statements in parking lots about R1T or S

    Yeah...Bandera Electric was all braggy about "getting a grant" to install that 50kw charger (2 blocks from my house). I used it twice before I got my home charger hooked up (48 amps 240v). The economics of their (time based fast charger) billing are this...the same electricity from the same...
  10. Am I turning into a Wuss? Uncomfortable with transporting gasoline in R1T bed

    No, we keep the cows on bigger acreage...they get in the way of the operation of the oil wells on the smaller parcels of land. :CWL:
  11. Interesting questions or statements in parking lots about R1T or S

    I wouldn't blame that on Fox News...to be fair, this was widely reported just in time for Labor Day last year https://www.nytimes.com/2022/09/01/us/california-heat-wave-flex-alert-ac-ev-charging.html
  12. App 1.12.0 available

    It supposedly will if you're parked uphill. Mine does because I cut a Tractor Supply horse stall mat to fit and it's just long enough to press slightly on the two "outer ridges" in the tailgate...so releasing the tailgate kinda "springs" it open. Be forewarned...these things stink to high...
  13. Am I turning into a Wuss? Uncomfortable with transporting gasoline in R1T bed

    I'm leaning towards these...I have a Tractor Supply 17 miles in one direction, 20 miles in another direction & 15 miles in a third direction.
  14. App 1.12.0 available

    I guess y'all don't open the tonneau a whole lot with a couple of inches of snow & ice on it. I guess if the truck bed was empty, you could lay a blue tarp down inside before it snowed and "rake it off" on top of that when you open it...but as touchy as the tonneaus seem to be, I'm guessing that...
  15. Door Sill Protection for your Rivian now available from DCE!

    Logo or no...i was ready to order until I got to the shipping...minimum $40 for UPS Ground
  16. New Drone Video of Normal Plant Campus - Must be $25M - $35M worth of vehicles

    10k+ would be a 20% shortfall from the (low) prediction of 50k. I really, really hope it's more like 15K
  17. Am I turning into a Wuss? Uncomfortable with transporting gasoline in R1T bed

    No, this is buffel grass and coastal bermuda (think hay field). If I let it get long enough, I could bale it. I need something "tougher"
  18. Anyone in San Antonio?

    R1T or R1S? How long would they need?
  19. Am I turning into a Wuss? Uncomfortable with transporting gasoline in R1T bed

    I've been driving (legally) for about 57 years. It has never bothered me to carry cans of gasoline in the bed of a pickup truck (some of which were pretty sketchy and in danger of imminent immolation all by themselves). As mowing season approaches, I'm gonna need to haul 10 gallon jugs of gas...
  20. Seat (space under)

    THIS ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ Be realistic. Any "car fire" beyond a cigarette ash on a seat cover is going to end in a "total". Certainly one that's extensive enough to require an extinguisher. Just get out, protect adjacent property and be done with it. If your neighbor's close enough with his F-350...
