  1. No tax credit for Rivian (effective April 18, 2023)

    why do you say that? They have the dual motor small pack you can technically get for $73K (yes I know it’s not technically available yet but neither is the new Silverado EV, Blazer or Equinox yet they are listed on the updated list of qualifying vehicles)
  2. Confirmed by Rivian: R1S w/ Ocean Coast Interior - Deliveries Not Until Early 2023

    Is adventure blue a new color or are we renaming Rivian Blue for some reason?
  3. Plasti Dipped 21" Wheels in Brass Monkey color by HyperDip

    Looks great. Reduces the flower look of the 21’s!
  4. Sandy Munro Reflects on 1 Year With the R1T

    So AM radio is not present in most EV’s for a simple Reason: there is electromagnetic interference from electric motors which generate frequencies comparable in wavelength to AM radio signals.
  5. OBD-II port is an easy option for dashcam power

    What’s wrong with the 12v outlet under the dash? Or is this for people with a “base” model R1? ;)
  6. IIHS Updated Crash Test Rating of Rivian R1T (w/ Video)

    I understood it. I'm afraid you are the one not getting the context, "Bud". This test was on a R1T. That isn't the same vehicle as a R1S and it's likely the airbag for the 2nd/3rd row on a R1S will not be the same as a R1T so to assume otherwise is presumptuous.
  7. Only 22 more miles of range to give up the quad motor for the dual motor?

    Correct I was going by the EPA estimate. I know some of us are seeing more than 328 estimated on a full charge but I felt this was the most apples to apples comparison.
  8. Only 22 more miles of range to give up the quad motor for the dual motor?

    I guess I shouldn't feel that's insignificant but I was expecting more than 22 miles. I can't see taking the dual motor as an early reservation holder unless they want to allow us to get a credit back for the difference to apply towards the Max pack battery.
  9. South Carolina, anyone?

    Nope. We were in Charleston/Kiawah all weekend. Must be someone trying to steal my thunder
  10. IIHS Updated Crash Test Rating of Rivian R1T (w/ Video)

    I watched the video a few times. Didn’t see an R1S anywhere in the video. I read the IIHS report too. Didn’t see R1S mentioned anywhere “bud”??
  11. IIHS Updated Crash Test Rating of Rivian R1T (w/ Video)

    We’ll the model X seat moves fore and aft (and tilts) so it needs to be larger.
  12. Max Pack no longer Available with Quad-Motors?!

    I think you mean you switched it Large Battery and Quad Motors and “’would have been great to have both Max battery and quad motors though.”
  13. Cracked Pano Glass... From The Inside

    The pano roof is not polycarbonate on any Rivians. It is glass.
  14. Cybertruck at max height suspension (video)

    It needs to come with a blindfold…
  15. Cybertruck didn't need to go ugly early - Autoevolution article

    So was $39900 and production in 2022. ? (it used to say 2021 but I don’t have that screenshot handy)
  16. Powered Tonneau Permanent Fix Coming in March?! "Rivian called - Permanent fix expected in March" -- per The Kilowatts

    Agreed but I wonder if a simple mechanical fix is cheaper/easier than 2 motors with the necessary sensors/controller to prevent the cause of failure of the current design
  17. Cybertruck didn't need to go ugly early - Autoevolution article

    I do think even though stainless is more expensive not having the time/expense of what corrosion/paint prep/paint/finishing/polishing involves likely make the stainless body cheaper than a conventional steel/aluminum body painted like most cars on the road today. The huge castings for the...
  18. Rivian Responds : Some Dual Motor Configuration News

    I read it Before. But there is another thread that doesnt support your narrative. https://www.rivianforums.com/forum/threads/fyi-new-order-favoritism-does-not-appear-to-be-a-reality-instead-the-shake-up-of-estimates-appears-to-purely-be-from-the-launch-of-dual-motor.12315/page-2#post-284682 The...
  19. FYI, New-Order favoritism does not appear to be a reality. Instead, the shake-up of estimates appears to purely be from the launch of Dual Motor.

    Possibly. We don’t know what range increase the dual motor will provide but we do know the perfomance (both on and off road) will suffer vs the quad motor. I could only be interested in the dual if it was cheaper and offered 50+ more miles of range. As a pre March 1 reservation I would have to...
  20. Rivian Responds : Some Dual Motor Configuration News

    I think you are being presumptuous here. There are people taking delivery every day of quad motors. How many dual motors have been delivered as of today?
