I have a Specialized Turbo Levo, not the S-Works. Mine was only $6500 (one of the best purchases I have ever made). I can tell you that it is not in the same league mechanically or technologically as the ALSO, and I don’t think it pretends to be. That‘s a good thing. They are completely...

I’m a life-long dirt bike (m/c) rider that now spends most of my time trail riding my Class 1 E-MTB. I have never considered a Class-1 E-MTB to be any more destructive to trails or any more of a hazard or nuisance than a regular MTB. It’s swell that an E-Bike can be configured to meet various...

I had my Blizzaks, LT275/65-20, with a significantly lower speed rating than stock, mounted at a Discount Tire store. There was no issue, at all. If Costco won‘t mount them, try someplace else. It shouldn't be a problem. And, yes, the dedicated snow tires are way better than A/T’s. The last two...

I can envision scenarios where one would want to maximize range upon leaving home. To do this, you can precondition the HVB from inside the vehicle and not waste energy on the road. I think this option should also be available in the app.

Yeah, so many variables - tires, HVB temp, HVAC use, wind, speed, terrain, etc. All I know is, for me, 2025 has produced waaay better overall efficiency than previous years. Dunno why.

I came off the original Pirelli Scorpions. I’m including an attachment that details some of my 2025 efficiency data. Oddly, I had a huge spike in efficiency in September, that seemed to be carrying over into October, UNTIL I put the new Bridgestone Ascents LT’s on. I have no idea why there was...

In my experience, tire installers attention to details, like exact tire pressure, often leaves a bit to be desired. I, too, highly recommend that owners check their tire pressure with a good gauge. It’s funny, but, my in car display also always reads about 2 lbs less than my digital gauge. Don’t...

I just put a set of Bridgestone Ascents on my R1T - LT275/65-20. The first fews day, my efficiency was down about 20%. I was expecting a bit of a hit, but not that much. Why was this happening? Well, for one thing we had a bit of an early season cold snap that perfectly coincided with the...

So, for an R1T QM Adventure series, what would be the most likely length and drop one should look for in a hitch? This would not be for towing any huge trailer or mounting any sort of rack. Just occasionally towing a utility trailer.

I installed the Dueler A/T Ascents on my ‘23 R1T QM two days ago. I went with the LT275/65-20 version. I do some off roading and this is a 7000+ lbs. truck. The SL version seemed a little weak, to me, especially with the low max air pressure. I have religiously tracked my efficiency data since...

I took delivery of my ‘23 R1T QM Adventure series in September of 2023. I was fortunate enough to get the early pre-order pricing, about $76K. I now have 24K miles on it. I have owned many vehicles, from sports cars to pickups to vans to compacts to SUV’s to truly capable off-roaders. Traded in...

Yikes! This is my concern, as well. My tie rods look like I could bend them by hand. The DHD sleeves seem like the obvious solution and at a reasonable price. Would love to hear from those with more experience.

😂 Clearly, upset is not the emotion that I am experiencing. Curiosity, yes. Just wondering if any others were experiencing similar results. I‘m going to shut up now, as I don’t want to jinx my good fortune ✌️

Could be. That’s what I was thinking. Having said that, I have based all my calculations on the actual kWh consumed on each drive. The vehicle reports m/kWh to two decimal places. I assume that to be a pretty accurate figure. It then rounds off the total kWh consumed to a whole #. To me, that...

Oof 🏋🏻‍♀️. Just another ho-hum day - 40 miles, mostly freeway at 70 mph and 2.62 m/kWh.

Most of the comments regarding those items (tire wear, weather, driving habits, blah, blah, blah) that may impact efficiency, I agree with. I understand all that. I have over two years and 24K miles of experience with my R1T, so I know what the history has been and I have documented a lot of it...

In my situation, I’m driving the same way I always have, in basically the same situations. Some around town, some in the semi-rural area I live, often in the mountains, some on highways at 65-70 mph. I don’t use conserve mode. I’m normally in AP mode or sometimes Sport mode in the mountains...

I have a 2023 R1T QM Adventure series with the 20” A/T’s. I’ve had the truck for just over two years and almost 24K miles. During the first year+ of ownership, I would have been thrilled to see 2.24 m/kWh efficiency. Overall, it was probably less than that. Over the course of the last couple of...

Yesterday, I decided to do a tire rotation. The last time I did this was in mid-April, maybe 5000 miles ago. At that time, all tires seemed to be wearing about the same and pretty evenly across the tread. When I took the driver’s side rear wheel off, I was shocked to see the extreme wear on the...

You sure that’s the sun rising? The last time I was in DV I was remote camping above the south western part of the Valley. As it started to get dark, I saw the glow from what I thought was the moon peaking over the mountains to the east. As time went by, I kept waiting for the moon to make its...
