When we had the active subscription to FSD in my husband Model Y, though he used it to navigate to and from work without issue, the occasions when he would use it while I was in the vehicle, the system would go into, as I call it, "A$$hole Mode" - taking the speed up to 80mph and careening...
Not banking on it. Either Ford will "change course" again or it will only be offered where they can make a buck, like in the European markets where EV sales have surpassed gasoline and diesel. Doubt it will come out in the US.
We've been down that road; my husbands Nissan Rogue SL/AWD hit end of useful life after 10 years and over 160k miles just as the Federal tax credits were about to expire last September. We looked at everything, test drove everything (including the R1S) that was available and on dealer lots...
Exactly. We had several years with my Mother-in-law in an assisted living facility, and would visit her quarterly. I was about a 5 hour drive from RI to Ohio, and we would make the run over a weekend leaving when my husband got home from work at 3:30pm, getting into Youngstown by 9PM. We...
This exact thing happened to me a couple weeks ago following a heavy snow fall and a bitterly cold night. My 2nd Gen R1T is garage parked and plugged in when at home. Went to run to the local DPW yard to get a bucket of road salt for the driveway. The ONLY thing I did that morning was put the...
I am having a hard time placing any belief in a major manufacturer suddenly releasing a premium EV when they have nothing else in the segment. I would fear that whatever they came out with, much like the Ford F-150 Lightning, will only be flash in the pan, an optional power-train for a one or...
Well... I own my 2025 R1T outright. Net: I like the payments. If I were to get an trade-in offering that would give me a new vehicle AND give me some cash back, I might consider it.
I had an issue last month where all of my warning lights went on and I lost my power steering. Luckily I was not in a place where I was in danger. I did a hard reboot of the R1T (LEFT button and HAZZARD) and it generated an error log that I reported to Rivian. They scheduled a service call...
I generally keep my R1T charged to 80%; 85 if I anticipate a weekend of long-distance driving. When we had the winter storm hit in mid-January, I capped the battery off to 100% in case we lost power here at the house and I would have needed the juice. I guess I am still too new to EV's and...
Check the outlet you have your charger plugged into. I got that when my 15-40 plug came loose. The temps in the garage are the culprit; near freezing the copper connections tend to not be as tight. Similar error on the Tesla when the connection into the charger came just a little bit loose...
Yes, I got the Email this evening. There is a difference between what the Email states and what the website stated
Email: Just like all new R1S and R1T now come with a 60-day trial of Autonomy+, your vehicle will include all Autonomy+ features through April 4.
Account Website: Expires March...
Although I consider these programs the "Bed Bath & Beyond" coupon of the auto world, I think it's a good sign. Every manufacturer (Ford, GM, Stellantis, etc.) offers some form of incentive through wholesale club auto services. BJ's (we are a member) has one as well. The discount can vary from...
