  1. Can we appreciate Rivian a little more?

    Well, Rivian is twice the age of Fisker.
  2. Yikes! Overheating motors.

    FWIW exact same thing happens while preconditioning on the way to a DCFC. Observed multiple times this last weekend.
  3. Yikes! Overheating motors.

    I think “overheating” is an overUSED term. Did the vehicle go into turtle mode? If not, it likely did not OVERheat. It just got hot. Within operating range.
  4. If true, and with GM truck delay, Rivian stock should…

    The discussion is about why the stock price is down, not about hard data on EV demand. Stock market is fickle and has no issue trading on rumor or speculation. If many big manufacturers say EV demand is low, it makes sense that people would take that as a sell signal.
  5. If true, and with GM truck delay, Rivian stock should…

    Eh, it depends how you look at it: You could see GM delays EVs because of low GM demand, or GM delays EVs because of low EV demand. Most would read the situation as the latter, which indicates that the EV pie is smaller than expected in the near future, and this is much worse for EV-only...
  6. Tesla warns that a federal probe into whether it exaggerated the range of its cars may lead to a ‘material adverse impact on our business’

    They would call any investigation into alleged or perceived wrongdoing a potential material threat to their business; that is standard wording for such CYA disclaimers re: forward-looking statements and guidance in financial disclosures I hope they do get penalized somehow, but the fact they...
  7. Visited Atlanta Store Opening. Couldn't convince wife on R1S over Model X

    I’m fine with people who don’t need the size or capability of the R1 buying a smaller, more efficient vehicle. Especially if they also don’t like how the R1 looks.
  8. Rumor: Tri-motor Cybertruck $98,990 starting price ?

    “Well into 2024” isn’t far away at all. I maintain that they may very well undercut R1 DM pricing when they do launch their DM offering, even if Tri-motor is slightly higher than QM at launch. And, your statement isn’t really true. I got a LRRWD single-motor M3 at launch. And a LRAWD MY at...
  9. Rumor: Tri-motor Cybertruck $98,990 starting price ?

    Pricing doesn’t sound crazy high Potentially not market-leading either, but not that far off from a QM. Plus, Tesla messes with their pricing more than anyone else so I won’t be surprised if it _is_ market-leading in the not-too-distant future. Tesla also historically has a higher $ delta...
  10. PASSENGER AIRBAG TURNS OFF

    Doubt it would cost $10billion
  11. Minimum Charging Speed Requirements at RAN

    Billing only by the minute is a dumb idea The answer is to build more chargers, as others have stated
  12. Minimum Charging Speed Requirements at RAN

    Then they wouldn’t be motivated to provide the fastest charging possible
  13. Lapped the Olympic Peninsula today with R1S

    I loveeeeeeeeeee Kalaloch Campground
  14. R1S Not Waking When I Walk Up Since Updating

    Same, much less reliable now. 15 Pro Max
  15. At last! R1S Ocean Coast with VEGAN dash!

    I mean, the wood is tissue-paper-thin. And they don’t put it on the back of the front seats anymore
  16. For Those Who Have Already Completed The Purchase Process - Did You Sign EDR Consent?

    I didn’t sign. In practice I grant the least data possible in scenarios like this. Sure, it’s a connected vehicle and Rivian already has plenty of data about me. But I’ll opt out of all data collection I can. I also opted out of binding arbitration, twice (once after reservation, once after...
  17. Update: Rivian adding Gauge View feature to Dual Motor Rivians (per VP of Software)

    Of course they did. The software needs to be able to differentiate between different configurations of the vehicle. Not only motor configuration, but wheel/tire configuration, battery configuration, even exterior color. It would be crazy to imagine a world where the software is blind to the...
