@Discount Tire

Went up Corkscrew Gulch by Ouray, then Cinnamon Pass (first ascent of an R1S Dual Motor Max Pack there?), to avoid the US 50 bridge closure and I-70. Such a (comparatively) smooth ride in this vehicle vs my FJ. Roads are more like a creek during the snow melt right now. California and Hurricane...

And my case is the opposite of yours, in that I wanted my stock 20s to last as long as possible, so I've had Discount Tire rotate every 5k miles, including the full size spare, and result is that my tires have lasted at least 20k miles (granted, 5, vs. 4), with the vast majority of my miles...

75 to 85 where possible, but there's other traffic, of course.

Both vehicles were in Standard height, apples to apples. Conserve mode is intended for use at highway speeds, which is the only time I used it. The dual motor also switches to front wheel drive at such speeds. Apples to apples. The 64 mph average or whatnot on both legs of the trip is due to...

I always use Conserve on open highway, at highway speeds, dry road conditions. If it's just me in the car, I set the suspension height to Low, as long as I can stand it. The two 200 kw ChargePoint chargers are in downtown Montrose next to the Tesla SuperChargers. As to why, for one, the Crumbl...

Benefit of dual motors / max is largely to occur w/ City driving. I have ~5k miles on my 60 day old dual max, but due to a cold Spring in Denver, I don't feel I have enough data to say that matches my real world experience. It's been warmer over the last week, in the 70s, and I've been getting...

Yes, that is why I'm torn, as I do a lot of camping, long drives. I just wish Rivian had a model with range like the Chevy EV trucks / SUVs are delivering . . . around 450 actual driven miles.

All those factors were kept equal, of course. e.g. 73 degrees

Sorry, I don't understand. Would you please explain?

Yes, I paid to charge the other one via the Bluedot physical debit card, so saved 20%, in order to have 2 vehicles charging at the same time, but it took minutes for each to successfully start charging. In Rifle, one of the four ChargePoints (all labeled as 200 kw) was maxing out at a very low...

Last weekend, to perform an apples to apples comparison, my friend and I drove both of my R1S’s 300+ miles while staying within sight of each other (prohibiting drafting impact). Results are that the efficiency was exactly the same, at 2 miles/kwh. So, my Max pack should theoretically be able to...

I’d be interested in a R1S Silver, 20” AT standard staples look or the black wheels, forest edge interior (if applicable)

One thing I'll mention about Elephant Hill, is there's a tight squeeze, which I don't think had an alternative / bypass (?). My FJ barely fit, scraped the side mirrors even with them folded. Specs says 2007 Toyota FJ is 74.6" wide without side mirrors, though mine seems to be 76" wide from...

Yes, service said they paused the rollout, but expect me to receive it by end of week.

Rivian Service just called and advised me that they had issues with the 2024.11.02 update for vehicles with VINs near mine, 4xxx, so they paused that rollout. I had previously opened a service ticket inquiring why it hadn't received it yet, despite my newer VIN 38xxx receiving the update on...

I spoke with Shane at Wilco just now. He says a prototype is not yet in production. He and I agreed I'd call him again at the end of May.

Likewise … thanks to your original post https://a.co/d/9QIkOwT

Later this year I’ll be able to drive both of my R1S’s across Colorado at the same time and report the results. And those results are the only ones that truly matter to me. Maybe I’ll do a 6+ hour livestream of it on YouTube! But based on my March experience in the Max Pack, it doesn’t have...
