    haaaaah! You’re good but I get credit for the set up
  2. Ioniq 5 is a competitor to R3?

    Daughter and wife own ā€˜24 IONIQ 5’s, the ā€˜19 Kona was relegated to me for grocery-getting while the R1T is used for work. Once my R13 comes the Kona goes. Wife doesn’t like the 5 any better than the Kona or her ā€˜17 Bolt and misses the heated wheel , rear wiper,and 6ā€ shorter size. The style is a...
  3. California Dune Limited Edition R1S & R1T Unveiled!

    Checking RIVN after hours quote the adjacent Apple finance news was the R&T article so obviously the press knew well ahead. I’m 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...
  4. Concrete pillar wins. Need paint advice

    After reading and hearing about high five figure fender bender repairs, we’ve 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.
  5. Does anyone know what time today the big mirage taking shape news is supposed to be revealed?

    If it’s like most of todays teasers and public opinion polls, Ask 10 people get 20 answers.
  6. Concrete pillar wins. Need paint advice

    We will be watching replies - have accumulated several like that in rear quarters, tailgate, and a tunnel door. I’d be happy with a pdr job like that ! Did they press from inside or glue on a pulling tab?
  7. "A mirage take shape Feb 19" - Rivian teasers [for new California Dune color?]

    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 that’s not honest, it may not work as...
  8. "A mirage take shape Feb 19" - Rivian teasers [for new California Dune color?]

    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 haven’t considered the need for more power, range, nor additional bells and whistles, so such news has gone past us...
  9. "A mirage take shape Feb 19" - Rivian teasers [for new California Dune color?]

    Please give one of the eldest ā€˜22 T owners a small assist. Does quad mean 4 motors? That’s what we ordered in ā€˜20 and started driving in ā€˜22. Thanks
  10. "A mirage take shape Feb 19" - Rivian teasers [for new California Dune color?]

    ā€˜So sue me’ 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 we’re talkin’! 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?
  11. Is L2 charging normally this slow in cold?

    We’re at a measley 6 mph no matter what outside though we’ve 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 we’ve had L2’s deliver 16 mph
  12. Rivian, give me a SoC gauge option

    For 7 BEV’s including our ā€˜22 ā€˜model T’ we use ( for road trips) the ā€˜gaining or losing on your man’ gps miles-to-go v. ā€˜miles of range’ and monitor the trending comparison. It’s 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...
  13. "A mirage take shape Feb 19" - Rivian teasers [for new California Dune color?]

    We use the GT several times a day but have never used the bowels of the lower frunk, spare well, under rear seat storage voids.
  14. Pour one out for Canoo. It's official.

    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...
  15. Pour one out for Canoo. It's official.

    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 ā€˜21 orders.
  16. Really thought I would be one of the lucky ones.

    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...
  17. What are people paying for the OEM 20" Pierelli Scorpion AT plus RIV?

    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)
  18. R2 @ 2025 Detroit Auto Show

    All we saw were hints of surprise cameos at a show or two. Maybe Chicago?
  19. R2 @ 2025 Detroit Auto Show

    Boohoo on the 3 , but so relieved I didn’t book a flight just to see our next car- due on the 50 th anniversary of our ā€˜77 Rabbit - one of the likely inspirations !
  20. R3X Sneak Peek

    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 I’m starting an album
