I doubt you would damage the system and quite a few people (including myself) were told to engage conserve while at constant velocity with little to no load.

Agree. Granted I have a gen 1 with FSW full time conserve mode which is terrible when accelerating and around town. But unless I'm on a road trip I keep mine in AP 100% of the time.

Thought it was suggested by Rivian to engage conserve at speed by not under load.

Is the Englewood SC open now?

I've never gotten 10 years out of a 12V battery, ICE or EV. 5 year tops and I don't have any accessories, everything is stock. My 4Runner used to eat batteries if it wasn't driven enough.

I enjoyed driving through Montana in my Rivian. Plenty of of chargers on I90 ams I saw a lot of other EVs. Now Wyoming on the other hand is very anti EV.

What severe limitations? EVs are doable by 90%+ of the population.

Yes you are correct that the first ice age happened a long time ago but not the 10000 year cycle mini ice ages we are in right now. And the earth has warmed 1.5 C in 150 years which is a rapid increase in temperature over that time. And the last time there was this much CO2 in the atmosphere...

No the earth hasn't had the same type of ice ages for billions of years. Earth was much warmer in the past due to a high concentration of CO2, which we are doing right now. So therefore the earth is going to start warming up quickly unless we do something about it. Humanity might be a blip...

I hate the drive feel of conserve in my gen 1. I hear its better in gen 2 since it will engage the rear motors but in gen 1 its strictly FWD. I only use it while cruising on the highway.

Well technically the sun won't explode, it will expand into a red giant and then a white dwarf, no supernova for our sun. I agree that ice ages happen for the last few million years but they didn't always. Humanity will be lucky to be around in 10000 years at the rate things are going. We...

I disagree that we have time. The rapid warming of the planet is unprecedented in human history and will have major impacts on civilization as a whole unless we do something about it. I think life on earth might have another 500 million or a billion years before the sun expands to large and it...

None of us but I would expect humanity will unless we continue on our stupid trajectory.

It is made by Tesla so the source is correct.

I'm sure they will have test drives available but it might not be until later this year or early next year.

Sure that fine. It sucks to steal intellectual property. It’s a whole other world to put spyware in electronics for your government. That’s the big difference between Japan and china.

Japan and China are totally different places. Japan is a democracy when they were importing cars into the US in the 70s. China has been well known to bug all their electronics to spy on the US. Big difference.

I wouldn't buy a CCP car either but so many people have zero issues with made in China stuff so I think they can have a very large presence here in the auto market. If they can sell an EV for $30k that gets 400+ miles I think people will overlook the made in China. Most people just want to...

Are you sure that it was someone hitting you? I have the EXACT same dent in the EXACT same spot and I think it was just mean leaving on it while getting stuff out of the gear tunnel. I still have it since I don't know what I can do about it. Hopefully you can get it fixed.....and not have it...

Not cold related at all. I've never had seen turtle mode on my truck and it's been in below zero temps. Something is wrong with yours.
