  1. Cancelled Order Restored

    I cancelled one of two orders, I'd kept my Max Pack, but not the R1S. The R1S hasn't come back, but the R1T Max Pack now has the correct price.
  2. A wakeup call on trade-in value

    This might depend on the state you're in but keep in mind if you trade in on purchase, it lowers your taxable price, least it does in NC. So if you trade in $45k on the $75k card, you're taxed on $30k. Maybe it's unique to NC, but trading in is subsidised by the state somewhat.
  3. Rivian Road Trip: Washington DC to Charleston SC

    aw bummer, if you were going to hit the Wake Forest NC charger at the Walmart it's 2 miles from my house I'd be like please please let me see :) Enjoy the trip, I really like EV road trips, you get to stop and smell the roses a bit on the charging stop. We've really liked that.
  4. Interesting EV cold weather range study showing Tesla performing well at freezing temps

    I call BS on those numbers, as I own the X and it definitely does not get 92% of the EPA number in the winter, the summer, or ...well ever. it consume 400 wh/mi or higher when cold and the car is full of people, summer is down to 340 wh/mi I have seen people get lower, but I most of the time...
  5. EA DC charge session data points

    Depends on the design of the battery thermal management system, really. Tesla Raven model (2019 refresh) has a heater in the pack that if you have fast charging spot in your nav it kicks on and warms the batteries up. The Model 3/Y the thermal is run through the motors cooling system and they...
  6. Advice please

    Oh and Uber won't pick up minors solo, they have to have an adult with them.
  7. Advice please

    Speaking as a father of four kids, two of which are 20/18 and two that are 12/10.... For the first two years from 16-18 driving I got them a used Fiat 500E. It was 80 miles of range on a good day, <$10k at the time (2019). That way when they whacked things with it inevitably (and did) it wasn't...
  8. Dual or Quad Motor?

    This thread has aged well. the posts on the 2nd complaining about lack of deliveries especially and all that frustration of the 1st announce :) If you do not already have a reservation, I think you'd be perfectly happy with the dual motor based on the descriptions you've provided, as delivery...
  9. My R1T Charging Session Data - From 25% SOC to 85%

    Audi Cheats a little, it's a 100 kWh battery, and you get 88 kWh of it. So 80% isn't 80% so to speak, so they can be more aggressive. They have a 9 or 10 year warranty on the battery I'd have to look. It's curve is why i got one until the R1T Max gets here.
  10. Customer Service Responses (or lack there of)

    As far as the Battery for the 12v I think if you watch the hour long video from Out of Spec Kyle pulled off the shroud and showed where BOTH of the 12v batteries are, and mentioned that there is a disconnect process and not to listen to him and only do what the manual says but basically...
  11. What would you do?

    if you can get a model y get rid of the worst gas mileage car you have for it. You'll easily be able to sell it if you want to when the R1 gets here.
  12. E for Electric: Rivian's Huge Error Points to CEO's Loss of Control

    Whomever told him that is an idiot, or didn't let them know that the prices are raised on NEW orders and not on old ones.
  13. E for Electric: Rivian's Huge Error Points to CEO's Loss of Control

    This was my last video I'll watch of E for Electric, his hyperbole/conflict desire is too high. Too much clickbait like headlines. He gets to talk to Sandy a lot which is what had me watching some of his stuff, but he's out of my rotation for a while.
  14. Hybrid R1S Interior; What's your favorite? [Poll]

    Compass Yellow/Forest Green seems like a good hybrid for me.
  15. What Would You Like To See From Our Rivian Test? - Out of Spec

    put four of those spare tires you put on the 3 and see how they do :D
  16. VW will reveal ID.Buzz - March 9th

    if the R1S makes it 2H 23 for me that would probably mean a no on the ID.Buzz unless they fix the time frame window. I was disappointed at the US only for the short wheel base and a 2024 or later date for AWD/300+ mile range models, and the vague 'make it more california' that that the VW AG...
  17. Ford Dealers Must Prepare For Big Changes

    I have had decent experiences the last uh...seven vehicles I bought at dealers. I have bought the Tesla way, and then the old dealer way. For me, the service has always been great, free car washes if I stopped buy and asked (Audi) service advisors that treated my wife like a human and...
  18. RIVIAN STOCK

    throw money at it now, be happy in five years. just look at Tesla, hit a low of $35 six years ago (2016). We had articles like this: https://investorplace.com/2016/01/tesla-motors-inc-tsla-stock-price-2016/ saying everyone is gonna be sad and it's end of the world. people who bought in...
  19. Who’s now uncancelling?

    Genesis CV60, Fisker Ocean, you name it, I was going over it
  20. Who’s now uncancelling?

    I cancelled one of two of the vehicles. The R1T has always been my next car, I've wanted to drive a truck again since I was young but the gas mileage kept me out because I'm not driving it as a daily driver just to have the utility every now and then. I was most likely going to cancel R1T if...
