  1. Munro teardown comparison: Rivian dual motor vs quad motor

    I will correct that for you: The Count finds that he needs one on the display and that analog would be almost as sweet as blood.
  2. Received my manual tonneau cover and the slats already broke

    Still. Rivian does not have a good track record with tonneau covers so people are anxious with good reason. Also, the tonneau cover should be robust enough that pushing and pulling incorrectly during installation does not snap off plastic parts for goodness sake! I still have mine on order but...
  3. Top 5 Reasons Switching to a Tesla Dominated NACS Standard is a Colossal Mistake for the Consumer

    Nice. I haven’t thought about that side enough. On the other hand it will relieve pressure on CCS chargers so I can charge myRiviand and other EV.
  4. Top 5 Reasons Switching to a Tesla Dominated NACS Standard is a Colossal Mistake for the Consumer

    I don’t hate Musk. I don’t hate CCS or NACS. I do doubt other companies than Tesla are able to build a quality reliable NACS charging network. They haven’t so far anyway. Edit: (with CCS)
  5. Top 5 Reasons Switching to a Tesla Dominated NACS Standard is a Colossal Mistake for the Consumer

    Third party companies have done a terrible job with consistency and quality charging experiences. I hope RAN chargers continue to have good quality. When there are a few hundred out there we will se true reliability numbers. I do not hate CCS. I hate the typical CCS charging experience though...
  6. Top 5 Reasons Switching to a Tesla Dominated NACS Standard is a Colossal Mistake for the Consumer

    I would be far happier if Elon submitted NACS to a 3rd party for standardization as well I agree with that. I just want working chargers that are reliable and Tesla has by far the most reliable system. No one else comes close. That is sad.
  7. Top 5 Reasons Switching to a Tesla Dominated NACS Standard is a Colossal Mistake for the Consumer

    I think you make good points but I think most of these car makers will cave and go NACS because of the competitive advantage Ford and GM now enjoy. the Feds will support Tesla if they also have ccs connectors I believe. Anyhow I do most of my charging at home and will rarely travel. Almost...
  8. Top 5 Reasons Switching to a Tesla Dominated NACS Standard is a Colossal Mistake for the Consumer

    There will be competition though. Most small charger companies are onboard with NACS and I suspect strongly EA will all also join the herd. I also think that if Tesla becomes monopolistic it Will be broken up by the government as has been done in the past.
  9. Top 5 Reasons Switching to a Tesla Dominated NACS Standard is a Colossal Mistake for the Consumer

    I think you are a little overwrought about this. Things will naturally settle out eventually and it will be alright. Doom and gloom gets old.
  10. Top 5 Reasons Switching to a Tesla Dominated NACS Standard is a Colossal Mistake for the Consumer

    At this point I feel the momentum is so strong for NACS happening and taking over that it is pointless to argue about. The anti NACS people sound like the pro Apple CarPlay for Rivian In that they are not going to get their way no matter how much they talk about it here. Edit. And I get their...
  11. Stay classy Rivian drivers.

    skimmed videos. Another entitled dickhead with zero empathy or self awareness. Strange strange affect he has. Moving on
  12. Competition Leaked: 2024 Tacoma First Look Official Image!

    I like it. It will sell very well. I do think good sales will steer Toyota further into delaying meaningful change into bev vehicles and cost them hugely in market share down the line if they don’t get their butts into gear.
  13. Apple, Google, GM and the $1.5 Trillion Battle for the Car Dashboard - WSJ Video

    I just don’t think this topic deserves so much anger. I get it is annoying but that’s the baseline in forums. People come here to moan bitch and complain a lot and I think it is healthier to tune it out when you don’t like it. This topic will never go away I’m afraid… I don’t think we will ever...
  14. Apple, Google, GM and the $1.5 Trillion Battle for the Car Dashboard - WSJ Video

    Honestly you need to chill and just ignore these threads. They are unimportant really. Just enjoy your great vehicle.
  15. Unofficial R1T Max Pack Dual Motor Order Tracker

    Wonder how this dual motor will compare in quality to my friends early quad motor I drool and obsess over.

  17. When will Rivian admit that avoiding AA/Carplay is not about providing "better" UX?

    The whopper analogy is just not very good. It’s really just bad in fact. However, whether my R1T comes with AA or CarPlay or not I’m going to enjoy the heck out of it anyway. Not a deal breaker by any means. But I do like the option of having it. And maybe someday we will get it like Lucid...
