Daughter and wife own ā24 IONIQ 5ās, the ā19 Kona was relegated to me for grocery-getting while the R1T is used for work.
Once my R13 comes the Kona goes.
Wife doesnāt like the 5 any better than the Kona or her ā17 Bolt and misses the heated wheel , rear wiper,and 6ā shorter size.
The style is a...
Checking RIVN after hours quote the adjacent Apple finance news was the R&T article so obviously the press knew well ahead.
Iām currently GMT+1 so I really am going to sleep with a meh and a yawn, but in full honestly , appreciate that they kept it simple and clean, especially the wheels and...
After reading and hearing about high five figure fender bender repairs, weāve been afraid to address the many dents n dings.
Taking off our tailgate light could be four figures- it was painstakingly reconstructed by us from all the bite size pieces we could sweep up.
We will be watching replies - have accumulated several like that
in rear quarters, tailgate, and a tunnel door. Iād be happy with a pdr job like that !
Did they press from inside or glue on a pulling tab?
With my history of DWA ( driving while aged)flared fenders means even more things to dent (unless composite and replaceable at 4 figures?) then they might offer protection.
While still under warranty you may want to jam your tc to get the dual feed - but thatās not honest, it may not work as...
Thanks for that clarification.
because we have not had a lick of trouble with our LE ( save for the tonneau that went south first week) in 36k very abused and dentful miles, we havenāt considered the need for more power, range, nor additional bells and whistles, so such news has gone past us...
Please give one of the eldest ā22 T owners a small assist. Does quad mean 4 motors?
Thatās what we ordered in ā20 and started driving in ā22.
Thanks
āSo sue meā as dad used to say, but car okay for us would be a BFD.
Now, jump the R2, bring us a 3 under 2 years and weāre talkinā!
How is it an Asian co. like Kia can bring their HYPER-innovative PBV line of vehicles and peripherals from drawing pad to pavement in a year or less?
Weāre at a measley 6 mph no matter what outside though weāve only hit 10f this season - maybe our L2 is a low amp 240 once in awhile it goes to 7
At the Rivian SC and other places weāve had L2ās deliver 16 mph
For 7 BEVās including our ā22 āmodel Tā we use ( for road trips) the āgaining or losing on your manā gps miles-to-go v. āmiles of rangeā and monitor the trending comparison.
Itās been very real and allows us to know whether we need to slip into conserve or ease up on the speed.
We also try to...
Roger that. Since they add plug in range 3-4x as fast as our R1T large, We went for the $29k 250 miler - lighter and less battery real estate.
It was nixed.
One thing of interest was Henry Ford-Ing colors and model selections for their LE to focus on production.
Cancellations may have been on...
The ID made a lotta buzz zooming down the hi way leaving Canoo in the stream to sink.
Agree it woulda been a go to addition to the livery.
Any of you visionaries have a take on Aptera?
We bought into the accelerator leaderboard 2 years after our ā21 orders.
we had some rodents feasting on a plastic panel on then rear side of then frunk just under the windshield.
We thought that was the cause of moisture min the frunk but we now think it was likely condensation.
Comes and goes.
As far as SC scheduling goes, we will toot our horn that we deal with...
We went through two of these in one month running into a trailer tongue then piercing one running over a 8 mm allen wrench .
Bought them from local mobile tire guy $325 ( likely higher now) then been buying on eBay with3/4 tread remaining for $75 to $85 shipped (RIV stamped)
Boohoo on the 3 , but so relieved I didnāt book a flight just to see our next car- due on the 50 th anniversary of our ā77 Rabbit - one of the likely inspirations !
The singing mouth burned Edsal into our history. We have twins
Learning to live with it and all we get to see while in the cabin is the interesting reflections on tailgates, bumpers, and decks of the vehicle in front
Iām starting an album
