My reply in bold: 1. It's Bosch - True, it just feels better with more vowels. 2. Do you think they're moving to an in house hi-fi system because its superior or cheaper? - Probably both. I have the original system and love it but I've seen comments that the new one sounds even better. 3. Jobs...

Well, it doesn’t know why you started it. Maybe you are about to drive cross country. Maybe they could add a “storage” function that would keep it in a low energy state even if you move the truck.

Thank you for this great story! I’ve been there, just not towing. I think you illustrate a flaw in EV range calculation that Rivian and most other EV manufactures have not figured out. If your trip had been reversed (Vancouver to Whistler and back) you would not have run into trouble. When you...

I don’t get the hubris charge. Is it hubris that they think they can make a better motor than Bausch for their particular use case? Or a better hi-fi system than Meridian does for their particular cabin? (I do think they could have communicated that change better) They manufacture vehicles and...

You say you were wrong at $19 so what makes you think you’re right now? What is worse, fanboy comments or self-absorbed, uninformed bloviating?

It may be strong enough but it is only half as attractive.

My main advice is to have your roof checked by a roofer before you decide to go with solar. We bought this house in 2018 and the home inspector said the roof was in good condition so we went ahead with solar in June of that year. Now, the roof is leaking because it was installed incorrectly...

No. He obviously wanted to finish all the steps the same day. It took me an extra day to get a quote from my insurance agent and it was better so I went with them.

Yep, I can see how this can vary depending on how you use the vehicle, your climate, etc. This should be a setting we call set the way we like.

A lot of people seem to want to leave the AC on for a while when they get out. I am the opposite. I want it to shut off immediately when I close the door. I often leave my car unlocked for a while and I don't want to waste the energy to keep it cool for a few minutes when I am not coming back...

Ditto on the app updates. Since we can't use CarPlay, it would be really helpful to be able to copy the address from Google Maps/Apple Maps/whatever and paste it into the Rivian app which would send it to the car. Until the Rivian maps database gets a lot better, I usually look up businesses...

You have a week to return it for any reason.

Yep. And you didn’t even factor in the cost of oil changes, etc.

If you are comparing to Tesla’s proprietary network, the Rivian network will be free for some amount of time and then we don’t know the price after that. Tesla’s prices back in 2015 might have been artificially low too.

I am also getting mine tomorrow (May 11). April 2019 preorder. My window was May-June.

Yeah, me too...
