I think it depends on whether you need to use the friction brakes in conserve mode. If so, that means that there is extra energy that you could recover through regen, but are limited at a lower level. If you then drop into all purpose and don't need the friction brakes, you should be gaining...
Dang it!!! Got a guide a week ago and changed to BM to get my truck earlier, largely because I feared the "fall" delivery of OC combined with my Oct/Nov delivery window would mean I wouldn't get an OC interior until 2023.
7 days later they do this, which would be perfect and probably still...
It would be great if Rivian made me a competitive offer. Not only save that 8.8% but I could drive the car until the Rivian is actually delivered and fewer monetary transactions. I am hopeful but not very confident given what I've read recently.
Thanks @Andystroh, I'll checkout KBB's dealer tool.
Sorry for all the questions, I'll stop soon I promise!
Looking to trade in my Tesla MS. Waiting on Rivian for price. Got a decent quote from Driveway and have an appt at Carmax. Any local dealers you you of that might give me a good price for it? Not wanting to deal with a private sale.
Got my 8 steps about 10 minutes ago, with VIN! Any advice on how to get custom plates? I've never done that before and have been to the DMV's site, but I am a little uncertain about the process.
I assume that I get the usual temporary paper plates when I get the truck and then get the...
I can't guarantee it, but it sure sounds like your configuration is being built now. I received an email to confirm my delivery address on Thursday and got an invitation to the R1T shop late on Friday. But I've never got an email to confirm my configuration. So I doubt that you will get an...
Can owners clarify when the safety features of the R1T are enabled?
As I understand it, there are 3 levels of safety/drivers assist:
Always enabled – just the basic safety systems they are always on (but subject to the conditions listed in the Owner’s Guide)
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) – you...
Not to rub salt in a wound, but I actually got a guide assigned today and an invite to the R1T shop (although I only get 404 errors so far). I don't understand at all how people are chosen to get their trucks - it seems like you should already have thousands of miles on yours.
The only thing I...
I expect this same question has been answered many times, I just couldn't find it by searching.
I just got my email saying I will get access to the R1T shop soon! While I'm not particularly hopeful that I will find a truck I want (I am only interested in one exterior color), can I keep my...
OK, this one made me LOL.
Guess what I JUST got in my inbox??? YEP! An email asking me to confirm my shipping address so I get an invite to the Rivian shop! I swear, I'm not making this up.
Maybe I need to try visiting the CS. I switched from OC to BM about 6 weeks ago - but switched BACK to OC yesterday just before signing the "written binding contract". I also swapped from 20"AT to 21" about 4 weeks ago and dropped my spare about 3 weeks ago. I've considered dropping the...
I'm happy for you getting chosen, but even more confused about why I haven't been. Up until yesterday I had the same config as you except color. I reserved 8 months earlier and had my first drive in May. Since then, nothing except having my delivery window moved from Jul-Sep to Oct/Nov...
Jeez, I thought I felt ignored, but you reserved a full year ahead of me and look to have a pretty simple config too. I don't know how you handle it, my situation is making me a little nuts. I keep wondering if there is some setting buried somewhere that says "don't give this guy a truck."...
well, you don't HAVE TO stick your thumb up your ass... :)
But seriously, my Tesla had no spare or even a can of slime, I bought them myself, although they never did me any good.
I have been anxiously awaiting Munro's teardown of the R1T. I really want to see what I'm getting - assuming my number ever comes up. They posted 2 or 3 videos about a month ago and then... nothing. In one of his recent videos (on a different vehicle) the R1T unibody can be seen completely...
