By "third week of September," I assume they mean Presidents' Day. But thank you for the Earth, Wind & Fire earworm.

I'm in a similar boat. As an Explore order, in Dec. 2022 I had no window (and no contact at all). The email I got in December or January said, we're about to shuffle up the order, taking into account order date, config, and location--so make your choices and we'll let you know at the end of...

Mine even reminded me that if I cut down a couple trees to avoid throwing shadows on the roof, that qualified as part of the install cost for the credit.

+1 for the Enphase microinverters. That's what I got -- it's all that company installs.

I used https://www.energysage.com and found it to be a terrific resource. I located a local, family-owned business that only does residential solar installs, and was no-nonsense and true to every word it spoke. (For those in the D.C. area, https://novasolar.com/ -- they were outstanding.)...

One can hope and try. But that's not published by Rivian anywhere. That's what one Service Center guy told one of our fellow order-holders here on the board. If you're lucky enough to get delivery, ask at the Service Center. Otherwise, there's always after-market. Or wait until production...

I also see the squishy language that @JerseyGreens is still concerned about. It says the taxpayer may elect, at such time, and in such form and manner, as the Secretary (or the Secretary's delegate) may prescribe. (My best memory -- scrolling, copying and pasting was cumbersome.) A taxpayer...

Go @svet-am ! Good luck! I hope it's fabulous. Thank you, @ERguy , for the text of the Act and that FAQ sheet. That answers one of my concerns, which was the difference between purchase date and "put into service" date. I see that if the conditions are satisfied, it allows the taxpayer to...

@BigE said he got the 115 load number from Rivian. I quoted it but don't have independent knowledge. I'm curious about the front-end XL requirement. With the Rivian having both battery weight and motor weight distributed evenly, why a high load rating specifically in the front? It doesn't...

I still have vivid, cinematic recall of a certain picnic in 1980.

Congrats on your delivery, Beavis!

Good to know! I've always wanted the ease of a spare set of rims and snow tires, but didn't have the space to store them, or the overwhelming need to justify the purchase. I added a shed and some covered carport storage this year, and now have the room.

I spent a little while surfing around, and a lot of the 20" winter tires were not up to Rivian's load rating (115). Other than the Pirelli OEM AT tire, the options I saw were the Bridgestone Blizzak LT, the General Grabber Arctic LT, and the Firestone Winterforce LT. At 22", Michelin had the...

Staggering to me that these aren't already on there. At 6' I admit I hadn't given this a moment's thought. But this thread reminds me that Sweetie is going to want to ride in it too. She's 5' 1.5". We can put in a mini-tramp next to the driveway. But that's a little cumbersome to carry around.

Michelin makes one that's XL, 115H: https://www.michelinman.com/auto/browse-tires/by-dimension/275/50/22/115/H

I'm with @SANZC02 . The house is 60 years old, has been through modifications -- who knows what shape that old wiring is in or what flaws are buried somewhere you can't see between the box and your new location? Safety and peace of mind are paramount. Take Sanz's suggestion. If there's...

Have you not learned stealth?

I've never seen that.

Once I get it installed, I plan to offer and encourage it. It's a hello-welcome thing, just like offering beer, wine or soft drinks.

On Tire Rack, searching for Rivian by vehicle, the winter tires were 20's. @bkswede addressed this issue in a different thread, and said the Service Center guys told him he'd be able to buy extra 20" wheels through the Service Center. Eventually they'll be available through the gear shop...
