How is it a different question, exactly? No one's suggesting a full-size spare that they're going to use as a replacement. They're asking if they can have a *mismatched* SPARE. SO...I'm verily uncertain what you're getting at. Spare's are also only rated to 50 mph because they're built for...

Yes. The R1S inflate-a-spare is a 30" diameter. If these vehicles couldn't accommodate a ~4" mismatch, Rivian wouldn't provide a spare that caused such a deviation. 195/70-20 does calculate to ~30.7" But 275/65R20 is a 34.1" OD. Still a 3.4" delta.

OK, this one I'm unfamiliar with. I google searched and found multi-thousand dollar replacement tire/wheel options FOR HMMWVs that are also 8-lug bolt patterns. So, I'm having a lot of trouble figuring out how this relates to a Rivian? Help this dumdum understand, please :)

Best color!

Look, I'm admittedly a fanboi of EE. I even own one of his t-shirts. If there's one thing I can vouch for of that guy: he doesn't do single source. And he absolutely addresses the Arizona study I cited (that you're still ignoring) in this video when he talks about longevity (which apparently...

I provided 3 sources. Check the Engineering Explained sources. Jason Fenske does a PHENOMENAL and extremely thorough job between all his YT series on BEV batteries. Engineers know things. #totallyunbiased

Maybe because you clearly ignored the entirety of the sources I provided you? You cherry picked the points you thought 'won' your argument...talking about DCFC or SOC only and ignoring the fact that every one of those sources address decades of data (as you put it "Calendar Aging") So, you can...

There are a lot of false claims in this. Haven't you watched the video about the cannonball run recently? Where they grabbed batteries from crash-tested Rivians that were sitting in a vehicle graveyard for months before being salvaged? They hooked them up and saw they were basically pristine...

Only if you want to join the 'cool kids club' (Shoutout to @twraps !!) FYI: we did this before Rivian announced their new color. I think someone owes us (and probably @LivingInKaos some royalties!!)

I don't know why you're calling me out, man...what'd I ever do to you?!?! :D

Can you stick a GoPro or something like that in the general area and demonstrate that walking? Because verily, there shouldn't be any force orthogonal to the end of the shaft making it 'bounce' in and out, which would be required for that noise to be born there. Further, all the conversations...

The force isn't acting along the axis of the halfshaft and causing that nut to work loose that's making that noise. It's the tolerance between the male splines and the female spline joint.

You said a lot of things. Some of which I sort of agree with, most of which I don't. But this one. This is silliness. There is no engineering oversight insofar as the 'retention' of these sees little-to-no force. They're doing exactly what they need to do. Your halfshaft (no one's half...

He'll get more than a letter. The legal team will file a claim with Etsy and they'll shut him down immediately and without recourse. Let's all hope they don't find it...! (Firsthand experience IYKYK)

I'd argue the contrary. Maybe all those around us who are watching tik toks on their smartphones will look up when they see something shiny out of the corner of their eye, through the vape smoke, and be looking at the road for a few more second than they typically do on their morning commute...

FYI: the next camping is the 12th thru 14th at Stokes State Forest :) https://www.heylo.com/invite/1640052d-2209-4f48-9ba9-dc08819bf0a7

Classes, classes, classes. Professional instruction beats decades of experience. Especially when you get that education from educators WITH decades of experience. Coincides with (and I verily agree) all the recommendations of being smart, making good decisions, and understanding our...

TO be fair, I only tried helping AFTER it was stuck on there. But yea, Poka-yoke :D

I'm pretty sure I witnessed the first one breaking, so it's an Engineering design project, for sure ;)

It didn't kill the lights in her house. It activated the opacity (frosted/disabled transparency) in the electrochromatic roof glass.
