  1. Fix Wireless Charging in Your Rivian With This 3D Print Part!

    I'd buy one (or 2) from you in a second. I have a ZFold 3 & a S20 Ultra. I mainly use the S20 on road trips because it has all my music on a micro SD. Tell me what I need to do - Venmo ready!
  2. Ceramic Coating has been incredible and very worthwhile investment

    Notice: I'll probably be hitting you up on your exact application methods since you clearly have a longtime experience with the products.
  3. Could Rivian offer a retrofit battery upgrade in future?

    Meanwhile, companies like Nio and Xpeng are proceeding with the battery swap format. NIO claims it will have 4,000 swap stations by 2025 (1,000 outside of China). This will allow for customers to have an alternative to fast charging on long trips. The claimed time for a swap is about 5 mins...

  5. Well, I pulled the trigger on a shop R1T - Stoke Factor 8.5/10

    Not really sure. My guess is that they're from people who got cold feet.
  6. Well, I pulled the trigger on a shop R1T - Stoke Factor 8.5/10

    Oops, thanks for catching me on this. It's $550/6 mos. $2910/6 mos?!?! Do you have a couple DUIs or something? Joking, but wow. Nationwide ISN'T on your side.
  7. Ceramic Coating has been incredible and very worthwhile investment

    Sounds interesting. Would you feel the need to do all of those steps (like Iron decontamination) on a brand new vehicle?
  8. Well, I pulled the trigger on a shop R1T - Stoke Factor 8.5/10

    I have to do 4 significant tows (about 160 miles each way) per year with a 25ft boat. The first one will be in late Oct. of this year, so we shall see. There are charging stations along the route, but they won't be convenient with 30'+ feet of boat/trailer if I have to use them. I doubt I will...
  9. Ceramic Coating has been incredible and very worthwhile investment

    I wanted to wait for 6 weeks or so before I made a true assessment of getting ceramic coating on my Audi S6. All I can say is that it has been incredible and a very worthwhile investment (more on this in a bit). Audis are notoriously/infamously known for brake dust, especially the fronts (for...
  10. Well, I pulled the trigger on a shop R1T - Stoke Factor 8.5/10

    Ha ha, guilty as charged. Unless people are posting altered pics and videos, the FG does have a much more grayish look that the pics on Rivian's site. I'm surprised that Rivian hasn't changed their website pics to more accurately match their real look. I still haven't seen it in person, and...
  11. 22's vs. 20's - In depth discussion.

    to the OP: I assume you don't like the 21"s because of the look (flower)? I'm getting the 21"s because that was the shop option/config I could get now - they are all season tires and I expect to see many more options for 21"s in the not too distant future. I plan to have the rims powder...
  12. Rivian Q2 earnings - released with pre and post thoughts.

    ^^^ True. If one is an investor in RIVN, as I am, you have to be LONG. Like 10 years long.
  13. Rivian Q2 earnings - released with pre and post thoughts.

    Having not read the earnings transcript, was there anything significant mentioned about progress on the Georgia manufacturing plant?
  14. Rivian Q2 earnings - released with pre and post thoughts.

    There is no doubt that there is still a definite a bottleneck due to parts supply with all automakers. Chip production & availability is just now starting its uptick, along with metals for bodies, batteries, etc. - this has not markedly trickled down to automakers in a significant way just yet...
  15. Rivian Q2 earnings - released with pre and post thoughts.

    Inflation Reduction Act EV Tax Credit: “First, in order to qualify, there are price and income restrictions,” said Seth Goldstein, a senior equity analyst at Morningstar. For new vehicles, the manufacturer’s suggested retail price for sedans would need to be below $55,000 to be eligible for...
  16. Well, I pulled the trigger on a shop R1T - Stoke Factor 8.5/10

    Yes, I have a VIN. The VIN was also required for me to obtain insurance, which is one of the 8 step requirements when you finalize the purchase. I added the R1T to my Progressive Insurance bundle for about $550/6 months (edited) with payment in full, FWIW.
  17. Well, I pulled the trigger on a shop R1T - Stoke Factor 8.5/10

    Indeed they are and mine is one that has the AW floor mats.
  18. Well, I pulled the trigger on a shop R1T - Stoke Factor 8.5/10

    I also have a dedicated 50AMP box from an old hot tub, so I can just re-route the wiring/conduit to the front of my house and should be able to install the charger myself. Looks pretty basic from the instruction manual and some YouTubes I've watched. And, oh yeah, price was under $80k ($78,875...
