Problem with all this is you can't use the Tesla App and discount pricing. If you do, both Tesla and Rivian will charge you for the same charging session. Happened to me. Have a ticket into Rivian on this..
I ran into a problem using the Tesla app to purchase charging time. Both Tesla and Rivian charged me for the same session. Not sure how you can get discount pricing from Tesla. If you plug in straight into the charging station without the Tesla app Rivian will be the only one charging you...
Couple of things about the Taycan 1. Depreciation drops like a stone. 2. New ones coming out are a lot better than old ones as far a range etc. 3. No one pedal driving, Porsche doesn't believe in it. So city driving and stop and go maybe a pain. 4. The older Taycan 2024 and older are great...
I have a Rivian charger with a direct connect to a 240 box. The approved wiring gets warm at 48amps, so I backed it down to 38 amps charging at night. Constant expansion and contraction of the wiring can loosing the wiring nuts. So good to check them every so often.
I think your dreaming..the refresh is about efficiency, saving monies in production. I doubt there will be features added. Less computers less wiring..etc.. but! There is always hope..
All the features I want like blinker mirrors can be done with software upgrades.
I think all EVs are moving in this direction. They build in all the features and if you buy the cheap car those features are not turned on. You can add them later if you pay. This is a big saver in monies for for they only have to build one wiring harness etc. Look to other makers and...
I find the whole info stack confusing. It looks like both Tunein and Spotify both stream off my phone and use the data plan on phone. If XM uses the Rivian connection I would save monies even with a subscription. I for some reason can't use the Rivian WIFI probably because I use the EVBase...
I got to agree Underwhelming.. Nav does not let you set destination charge for intermediate stops. In the past I have come to a intermediate stop with 4% left. So many other info features missing who cares about the rear screen. Where is Utube videos?
My experience with Rivian support has not been that great. I fully expect the Rivian adapter sometime later this year after I have taken a 3K road trip. Some of the road trip areas only have Tesla superchargers and that is why I purchased a third party adapter. It would be nice to save the...
A2Z has an adapter that have proven to work with the Ford and I'm sure you it will work with the Rivian. It's $200 bucks. I already order mine.. I got a road trip in June...
For the Eclipse look up the Hestia Telescope for the cell phone. Pretty cool.
I'm thinking of buying for a third party adapter. Got a long trip scheduled in June and don't think Rivian will come through in time. If we are on the network this month, than I assume a third party adapter will work with the Tesla APP. They are several third party adapters that seem to be...
A software update to maps is rolling out this week. It shows what Tesla chargers will be available. What I understand is only Tesla chargers on major interstates will be available. The software update, I guess is the start of the process..
Tried this site. www.findmyelectric.com Just had a friend sell his Tesla on the site. It's pretty seamless. They pickup the car and delivered it to the new owner. There is 159 Rivian for sale on it.
I have been setting the ride height to auto. When R1S goes into conserve mode it lowers the suspension to low. Problem I have is Texas highways are not the smoothest. Standard ride height is be better. So the question is how much milage do I lose going from low to standard ride height. Not...
