  1. Qmerit 12% fee???

    I don't know what is available to you; however, my power company (Duke) has a referral program....You fill out a form on-line (installation of a home charger was one of the options) and they provided several vetted contractors. I contacted all three. One of them was over 2.5x more than the one...
  2. ICE Dealers and their Lobbyist Will keep Rivian Sales & Service out of the Carolinas

    I'm hoping they pull a Tesla and team up with the Catawba Indian Nation in York county, SC (I think it was NM where Tesla did this). (For those that don't know, York County borders NC to the south and is part of the Charlotte metropolitan area.) Rivian would be able to handle the almost 3mm...
  3. My Q&A with Rivian reps at Venice Hub

    I think you may be spending too much time parsing words trying to interpret the deeper hidden meaning. ; - ) That being said, I can assure you that, as a kid, if I told my parents I would be home BY ten on a school night and I showed up at 10:59PM....well...that dog don't hunt and any attempt...
  4. My Q&A with Rivian reps at Venice Hub

    Phone coverage is terrible in my area. Calls dropped in my house all of the time....walking the dogs was a crapshoot. When looking for a new phone awhile ago, I tried to research antenna quality of phones. With my new phone, I've never had an issue. My guess is that the antenna in the Rivian...
  5. R1T Preorder Poll...do you need a truck?

    You'll wonder what you ever did without one...only downside is that now YOU will be the one people will be asking when they need to haul something
  6. R1T Preorder Poll...do you need a truck?

    Am I in the minority here in that I actually need to have a truck bed? On occasion I need to be able to haul sheet goods (plywood/drywall) and 8+ lumber. Fairly often it is mulch, soil amendments, pine straw, etc. A few times a year it is high bulk items. However, I've seen a number of posts...
  7. Has anyone Towed a trailer, boat, camper with their new R1T?

    Major props for using champing instead of chomping!
  8. Video: scrolling through Rivian windshield wiper options - sprinkle, drizzle, shower, downpour and storm

    But isn't the point to show you whence they come and whither they go? (If not, I don't really care, I just wanted to be able to use whence and whither ; - )
  9. Has anyone on this forum received a confirmed delivery date?

    In my experience (having spent my career in the software industry), documentation is always the red-headed stepchild. I can't ascertain the state of the software by looking at a user manual.
  10. Has anyone on this forum received a confirmed delivery date?

    I've certainly not read very thread but I am curious to know everything that needs to be cleaned up. I've read about the power cover, but even that seems a bit speculative. I've not seen anything about the drivetrain, suspension, bodywork, electronics, etc. Where can I find this information...
  11. Rivian Improvements Over Your Current Vehicle?

    Where were you three years ago!? ; - )
  12. Rivian Improvements Over Your Current Vehicle?

    The R1T will replace my Ridgeline. My wife and I both love it since it rides so much better (even with AT's on it) than any other truck; however... 1) They may have changed this, but ventilated seats were only available on Ridgelines sold in Canada...yes, you heard that right. No ventilated...
  13. ? Rivian IPO S1 Filing - reveals preorder numbers, R1S delivery date, Autonomous Subscription Fee & more...

    Final thought on startup time for a new facility...the current plant was a Mitsubishi plant, so while a great deal of buildout and some site modification was no doubt required, Rivian started with a building previously used for building cars. Therefore, bypassing all (or much) of the time for...
  14. Poll, # 1 reason why you want to see Rivians in the "general population"

    If you had to pick ony one reason why this is important, what would it be. While all are, of course, free to opine on his or her reasoning, if you went with other, what is the other?
  15. Rivian technical nuggets gleaned from EPA application docs

    Thanks...I obviously did not understand the context. I wonder what the graph would look like if temperature were the only variable.
  16. Rivian technical nuggets gleaned from EPA application docs

    Question for all you engineers. Earlier in this thread I saw the table showing the efficiency at various temperatures. Even wIthout it being graphed, it was easy to see that it is neither linear nor parabolic. It almost seems random. I would have assumed a much more predictable pattern. Is...
  17. Rivian technical nuggets gleaned from EPA application docs

    It will be interesting to see how the reality of EV's starts to set in and impact the euphoria of all the excitement of these recent reviews, especially for those that don't have expereince with EV's. I suspect some will decide it isn't for them. We have had our etron for a little over a year...
