If Rodney Dangerfield was still alive you could sell him your story.

As a veteran of the Imperial dunes here are some basic soft sand rules. Air down Don't stop in soft sand. Speed Is your friend. Never stop in soft sand on an uphill. If you do , reverse out. Don't depend on boards to get you out. They usually just kick out the back. The second you feel like you...

I'll try that. Thanks. Well that did stop the cruise control from seeking 85 mph. I included a picture of the 85 mph speed limit indicator in my OP. Later talked to another local Rivian owner and he has experienced the same thing at the same location. Is it just Rivian or os it extrinsic to...

Driving on hgy 1 at Morro Bay Ca. the speed limit is posted on signs as 65 mph. When I drive my R1t at 65 mph and hit cruise control it accelerates toward 85 mph. I looked at the Rivian speed limit and cruise control indicators on the screen and it shows the speed limit as 85 mph, which it...

Think of Rivian as a decathelete. Very good at many things but having limits in all. If you venture with a 7000 pound all terrain truck into deep sand or if you are not cautious in your driving technique even in moderate sand, you will get stuck. If you get stuck be sure and be somewhere where...

I went ahead and ordered these sun shades. A pair is around $25 with your personalized design.

Musk or RJ? It's like the old skit where the devil is sitting on one shoulder and an angel sitting on the other. Both offering advice and suggestions.

We are constantly exposed to the earth's gravity and our anatomy and physiology have evolved around it. It is not included in calculating acceleration forces by linear acceleration. If there was a vertical or lateral acceleration tangent then it would need to be factored in.

Sounds like the OP performed in line acceleration excluding lateral forces from turning or gravitational forces from climbing. The formula for in line acceleration g forces yields the result I listed. Also 0 to 60 in 5 rather than 3 seconds yields these results "If a car accelerates from 0 to...

Perhaps something about having to change undergarments?

0 to 60 in 3 seconds. The g-force experienced is approximately 0.91230 g Unlikely to require MAST (military anti shock trousers) Astronauts can experience 3 to 6 g's I suspect we've all floored it to see the reaction of our passengers though. A Rivian or any other vehicle going off a cliff will...

There are thermometers that sense temperature at a desired location and display it remotely. Some people clearly are not seeing the rivian screen pet mode display. The solution is to make the information more evident.

I bought their gear tunnel sled and was completely satisfied with product, price, and service. So asking people to avoid doing business with them based on one questionable transaction is a bit much. I can however sympathize with your ordeal.

Here are Az laws and Good Sam laws In Arizona, it is illegal to leave an animal confined in a motor vehicle where physical injury or death is likely to result. This is a class 6 felony, and a first-time offender could face up to two years in prison. Additionally, good Samaritan law allows...

I'll be staying 6 weeks in that area starting June 1st. I've been hoping it would be operating by then. I'll be using the rivian to power my motorhome for a week of that time while I'm in a no hookup site. There's already a Tesla dc charger nearby but I like most owners prefer Rivian whenever...

Very timely post. I've been thinking on this lately. Living in Tucson we're just heating up for the summer. I think the ideal solution would be sunscreens that have the dog mode pictured. I wonder if any company makes personalized sunscreens. If I find anything I'll report back. So yes. Many...

As retired emergency medicine I pretty much agree with your decision about emergency rooms. I assume you had a distal radius and distal ulnar fracture near the wrist joint. As long as it is not an open fracture or a displaced fracture and does not have neuro or vascular compromise. These would...

I fully understand your position and appreciate your intention of helping a start-up company with a worthwhile mission. It's impossible to know when you get in , what your individual experience will be. I have been lucky with zero problems approaching a year of ownership. If Rivian was my only...

RJ and his company get my highest respect and admiration. Love my R1t but I am not monogamous. Love my Volt and Equinox ev. I believe GM is making an honest effort to lead in the domestic ev market.
