It was in Az but no, not legal. It has Mad Max mode which is more like actual driving and less "robotic." He said when it drove him home on the interstate it would attempt to pass in either lane. In addition to selecting speeds as high as 13 over the posted limit. I'm sure you can tweak...
My CT buddy has always been a Tesla/Musk fan. I am, too, but I needed a truck so I never bought a tesla. I find the CT to be a visual betrayal to decency so I can't own one. I was very excited to reserve an R1T back in the day but I never felt a need for any amount of fsd. Now, I see that I do...
Yesterday, my buddy let me sit in the left front seat of his new CT. It drove us through a 1-lane, hilly subdivision and to a shopping center parking spot. It was incredible. It was pulling into a spot next to a Honda with the door open and just stopped, possibly waiting but I hit the brake not...
What I've found over the years of trading is the stock market is very predictable. Bad news for a company means its stock will decline, no news means its stock will decline but good news means its sock will decline.
What I gathered is my R2 reservation is more exciting than when I woke up but more importantly is that Alexa in my 23 T will be replaced with something with actual functionality. I can handle driving my 835hp toy myself like no Ai would dare.
I'd like my windows to automatically close when the wipers sense rain. Stupid hot summer days necessitate vented windows but afternoon monsoons can fill an interior in minutes.
There must be a great reason to deny AA/CP. It's a deal breaker for so many potential buyers. Almost seem self-destructive to not figure out how to integrate them. Almost everyone else has. Whatever. I still want seat options. Ever sat in a mid 2000s gm truck? Heaven.
Maybe one day the creators will release the required documents to allow the aftermarket to make modifications. There's got to be a mad scientist out there who needs to find the limits of the bosch motors.
What are the chances that sometime in the future there will be a replacement HVB available that is a real upgrade? Solid state, higher capacity, significantly lighter, less combustible, any/some/all of the above?
RTR rc cars come with cheap ass batteries that you can upgrade massively. My 1gr1t...
I bought some weird cup holder thing that hangs off the side of the floor center tray. Garbage.
The best thing I bought was the bed mat. Keeps the crap out of all the joints and spaces in the bed floor. Wish I had it from day 1!
It occurs to me that I would trade up to Gen 2 quad but I simply can't afford it. No one bought a Rivian because they needed it. Everyone wanted it. I still have the pos truck mine replaced because it isn't worth anything. It could still be my dd today but I wanted the best vehicle I could own...
A dude helping his mom get into his really rough Nissan chatted me up while she struggled to get down into the bucket of a seat with the door inches from my driver's door said "nice Rivian." I thanked him and he told me he thinks it'll have a better position than the CT in the used market since...
I just told the story about the kids in Puerto Peñasco, Mexico who would charge the gringos $40 to get their stuck trucks and suv's un-stuck. They'd collect the money, let all the air out of the tires, instruct the driver to drive to firmer sand then charge another $40 to pump the tires back up...
It kinda seems like they left room for improvements for future updates. Gotta dangle the carrot, no? Google maps on my phone works so much better than the version that was implemented in my rivian. When I can say "Hey Google, take me to..." I'll be impressed. Until then I'll continue to use the...
