This would only encourage more confusion than there already is. People already think that you cant ever charge above 80% which just isn't true. Charging to 100% for a road trip every so often is not going to have a significant effect on the battery and the vast majority of people don't get...

Tire wear isn't a problem as long as you rotate your tires every 6k miles. Go for it. Conserve mode makes a big difference in range.

I'm on the 20" wheels with stock tires. In the summer on a road trip it is not difficult for me to get above 300 miles of range in conserve mode. Round trip from Hood River to Bend, OR I got up to 350 miles on a charge before they increased the usable capacity. Granted the speed limits on that...

Have you checked your tire pressures at low temperatures? On a road trip with a warm battery I consistently get at least 275 miles of range even at 20F.

I am sure it is just reduced steering weight at low speeds.

Meanwhile my dad gets 4¢ per kwhr with cheap Portland energy.

Agreed. They seem intent on chasing after an ever diminishing customer base.

Looks like an excellent trip! Where were you staying that had that excellent hammock situation?

Points for correct science. Negative points for a TLDR that is almost as long as the rest of the post. ?

I copied your setup. I like it a lot except it is nearly impossible for me to remove small magnetic piece of the type c adapter once plugged into the Rivian.

I was previously insured in Oregon through Rivian and when I moved to Colorado Nationwide (rivian insurance) refused to insure me! This is with a clean driving history.

That sounds pretty good factoring in colder temps and gear guard.

I just got back from a trip where ai left my truck sitting at a parking garage for 58 hours. Lost 10% over that time which shocked me. Granted it was cold out, but I am hoping that it was downloading the update during my time away which contributed to the high drain.

Let me clarify. I have basically disabled phone as key because it draws so much phone battery power. It is supposed to be disables when at home but it definitely still notices when I walk near the vehicle and flashes the taillights.

I wonder how proximity unlocking vs locking with the key fob will work? Will it be like the phone is currently is where it will automatically unlock when you get close or will it require you to touch a part of the vehicle like most other keyless entry systems? If it is the former (which is what...

Bellevue and Portland told me the same as well. Took it to the Denver SC when I moved there because you can't gaslight an engineer. Denver SC found the leak in less than an hour. Replaced the line that was leaky and now it never sags at all while sitting.

I don't think you want the people who wrote this article building your R1S.

All cars do this. The parking brake is only ever on the rear wheels. The difference is that with ICE vehicles typically you also have some gear train/engine resistance on the front wheels or a parking pawl on the driven wheels.

110V outlet will deliver 1.3 kw continuous power which is roughly 3 mi/hr assuming no accessory drain. Expect anywhere from 1-2 mi/hr depending on temperature and sleep state for the vehicle.

If I were you I would submit a ticket on this. You have a pump or fan that isn't working correctly as I have never experienced speeds that slow at that SOC. It is still well over 100 KW for me usually.
