Aren't those guardrails really just designed for glancing blows? I'm pretty sure a civic hitting that at 60 head on is going to go through, just with a far less healthy driver.
Absolutely agree, and honestly they probably should have known by reservation data. Nevermind the fact they've had two years to react and we still are seeing them adapt by opening a CT service center and basically no RANs? Last time I was in Chelsea most of the plates were New Hampshire and...
Hasn't happened to me again. Admittedly I don't use the Frunk all that often, which maybe is either why it stuck in the first place, or why it hasn't had a chance to do it again. Either way, I keep a multi-tool in the truck, just in case.
Also a manual driver, and suspect something similar may happen here. Give them the car, get to a safe distance, count how long it takes for them to look for the ignition button and figure out the gear stalk. I bet you'll have a good couple of minutes of entertainment, hopefully while waiting...
I think there are quite a few good threads on winter tires on these forums at large, personally I made it pretty fine through last winter on the stock 20s, but I'd definitely get something grippier if I were on the 22s.
@AdamEk Faster charging could use some improvement, that's for sure, but so far I haven't found myself high and dry with a little planning and the occasional conserve driving for that extra 10%
You would not be making a mistake, just about 11 months into my Rivian ownership experience and loving it! Great for tearing around the backroads of NH.
All this talk about wagons, but no one has mentioned how incredible a Rivian rally hot hatch would be? Something like the old bugeye WRX with ~665hp (performance dual motor would probably be enough) and a dead low center of gravity...I'll take two.
I had something similar happen the other day while at a trailhead a couple hours from home. I was panicking a little, to say the least, but after quite a lot of experimentation I was able to release a sticking part in the latch just pushing around with the pliers in my multi-tool. May want to...
I always have a nalgene (or more frequently a 40oz klean kanteen) on me too, but I guess I've never been in a car with a cupholder that could accommodate them, so I would not have guessed that was anyone's priority! The center floor area on the Riv does a good enough job keeping it from flying...
What's with that giant cupholder / water bottle? I mean, I know some people complain there are too few cupholders in the Rivian, but I don't imagine that's the solution they're looking for...
Seconded for Pam, she was extremely helpful, personable and proactive. She even sent me and my pup a little swag! I hope someone at Rivian reads these!
