They were fine. I'm used to the really nice LED headlights in my CX9. About the same with the Rivian. Good bright neutral white color, maybe 5000k or 4500k. Good sharp cutoff at the top with a small purple fringe from refraction at the edge. Did not notice the corner illumination but the...
Had my first mile drive today. Rivian blue with black mountain interior. 45 minutes goes FAST. I do NOT recommend the 4:30pm slot. It gets dark real quick and rain makes it way worse. It was hard to take everything in and get used to driving an electric car. This was my first EV and the...
I'm thinking a combo of location and random. I'm over on the Kitsap Peninsula in Poulsbo, and I'm an R1S from Feb 19. I'm scheduled for next week test drive. I'm kind of expecting a call to cancel or reschedule....but here's hoping it sticks.

keeping an eye on the careers page often has some hints:
Those are the three that jumped out. They have that theater place in the LA area already. Didn't see any other obvious job spots....
Further on the page I see Service Center Tech jobs for Chicago, Miami, Normal, San Francisco, Seattle...
I'm curious if anybody heard anything about 2 way charging. I know there were mumblings of Rivian to Rivian charging. I'm more interested in Rivian to house charging. I know you'd need the proper transfer switch, but you have about 5-7 days of household energy in case of a storm outage...
very underwhelmed. Hardly anything for the R1S, although I'm lucky in that the Launch Edition is exactly what I was wanting. Would like to see some additional options
I feel that we all want to hear about the truck and how it performed, but Rebelle is much more interested in the competitors. There is some mention of cars, but other than Harry/Henry (I forget) they didn't spend a ton of time on the car details for any of them if it wasn't a sponsor. Even the...
