lol yep we are MTNRIV. Agreed it was good skiing! Brutal drive. Not quite that long to golden but makes sense, it was worse in town than the mountains.
Nice, we were in the green R1T. That is earlier than usual but it was busier than usual so makes sense! I think I counted 7 rivians in the first two rows of parking on my way out
I am pretty sure they will let you in to the early riser lot as an EV even if you don't charge, but they may have always assumed I was charging anyway.
Doesn't help if you are an Ikon passholder, but Arapahoe Basin passholders get charging for free, you can set it up in the chargepoint app/a...
I believe this removes the occasional coasting that R1s could exhibit, e.g. they are not regen braking because they can't, so they coast. In my experience it was more of an intrusion in the behavior of the vehicle because you are so accustomed to it braking when you lift your foot.
I haven't...
Id go for the two above the bed + 4 on the hitch since you’ve already got the hitch. It’s not bad loading a gravel bike on the bed, a lot easier than above the cab. My wife sometimes has struggled with the full suspension on to the bed.
I think I got This one, plus some soft shackles. Similar use case to you. I know a lot of situations the kinetic is better, but I wanted something to gently rescue a vehicle when necessary. I used something similar on my old 4runner and never needed a running start. I don’t go on offroad trails...
I put my registration in the elastic holder in the center console. I agree it doesn’t seem extremely safe in there. Perfect for sunglasses so that’s how I use it.
Nice work. What kind of printer do you have? I use to work in commercial 3D printing for medical devices and we had some fun with the printers. I’ve still got a shelf of implants, models, tools, etc. that were printed here and there. I’ve been tempted to get one for tinkering at home.
I actually had to dig out my truck last winter on wolf creek pass. A Tacoma lost control and ended up in the oncoming lane that we were traveling in, super slick road. Fortunately I was next to a pull off and I drove off the highway into a plowed snow bank.
We couldn’t get the truck out with any...
Some EA stations stopped working in the negative double digits last winter, so that was a challenge.
Vehicle performance stayed fine while we were camping and skiing for a week with temps between -10F - 10F. More vampire drain, it will be interesting to see if that is improved this winter (this...
It doesn’t work in tunnels, if that’s where you experienced it. Also sometimes recent construction/active construction zones are a problem, so if there’s an area they just finished it may not work.
The R1S has absolutely flooded Colorado. I see more than R1Ts and they’ve been delivering for so much less time. Pretty impressive if it’s true considering how many model 3s are also sold
We lost 10% with GG on at airport over 8 days during thanksgiving. Left in Colorado, so not too warm, not super cold. Just posting to highlight the discrepancy… 3% is a lot more than ~1%. Something is causing a lot of variability in vampire drain.
!!
are you scheduled? Or how did you learn?
not that I don’t believe you but the number of times I’ve gotten my hopes up for tonneau repairs only to be let down…
I can’t believe anything anymore
we used the space heater for winter camping in our RTT last winter and it worked really well. A few times in an RV park it was great with unlimited power, but you’re right about leaving the outlets on; it seems like phantom drain has been reduced since then, but about an hour of heat in the...
