The Anti Elon clan would be best to not accept a Rivian provided adaptor…. Rivian has to pay Tesla for those adaptors and every “free” adaptor sent to Elon haters will be money stuffed into Elon’s pocket. Me personally would rather have Elon take Rivian’s money then some other half baked EV...

With like every refresh from any auto manufacturer you get a msrp price hike and some very minor incremental vehicle changes. Rivian will be the same

Was charging my Tesla at a supercharger I frequent with Magic docks. Not a busy one as the only chargers I typically use are in BFE as I have a level 2 at home and typically only stay at lodging accomdations that offer level 2 charging. But at this particular charger 3 stalls could charge a...

Having the charge port on the passenger side rear eliminates a lot of DCFC that you can use. Drivers side rear opens up a bunch of DCFC opportunities. It’s almost if Rivian intends to sell a lot of these they are intending and intentionally trying to create chaos in the US DCFC charge...

Own both a Tesla and a Rivian. Many that think they are going to screw over a Tesla owner by taking up 2 charging stall are likely in for some frustrations as well if not way more then a Tesla driver. When a Tesla is charging it is taking up 2 charging stalls for something like a Rivian...

Swapped the Nokian snows out today and got the factories on today. No issues on lifting the whole r1s and it was nice to be able to clean some stuff up. Notice one screw/bolt missing for a front fender well liner. So going to have to see about finding a replacement that matches up.

If some of the wild predictions of the forum comes through my chances are good with scoring a low mile used 2025/26 R1S max pack in 2026/27 for say less then a R2 performance when owners “upgrade”

Georgia was dumb from the beginning cause they hadn’t even produced a vehicle and were going to spend billions to not produce any vehicles for many years. They would be better to turn it into an offroad park until they run out of room for tents at Normal and can turn profits. If they lose out...

I think the cybertruck had that disclaimer as did the Lightning. Still doesn’t help solve the complaining that will ensue when a base model R2 will come in closer to $60k in 2 or 3 years when Georgia gets in production. My R1S wasn’t price locked until the outrage ensued that cost Rivian...

Not sure why manufacturers put a price on a vehicle so far out. They should put a price of TBD so as when they come into production at a lot more expensive price tag they don’t get a black eye for not delivering on price.

How would you terrorize them. Take up all the charging stalls so no one can charge?

Doubt Rivian has the capitol to get Georgia off the ground. Probably needs to look for partners, such as Maybe BYD. Rivian could offer BYD an easier route into the US. But before Georgia it would be nice to see Normal near capacity which I thought it was suppose to be able to build 150k...

The IRA really hurt Rivian. Rivian would be the only one selling a pickup currently with $7500 credit which is a good selling point. It’s going to be a tough storm to weather for Rivian with lots of options.

I was going to suggest Montana registration via a LLC. May come to that point for me but Idaho is still doing OK on ev fee…. It’s not outrageous yet

I was always under the assumption that the 12 volt battery in the Rivian is used to close some contacts in the electrical system to utilize the hv battery via a dc to dc 12 volt converter to charge the 12 volt. Rivian’s 12 volt battery is pretty tiny compare to a regular car battery on amp...

If you have a working car in the garage trapped could you pull that battery out of the car and take it to the back of your Rivian and do the jump procedure? Jump packs are just batteries. Maybe start the car in the garage for 15 minutes or so prior to removing battery to make sure it’s...

Amended mine through my tax person beginning of September. Check came from the IRS in December. Hopefully your CPA put in the correct date of purchase…. Check the irs website as you can check the status of the amended return. Also interest starts the day you file the amended return…. Mine...

What generation is your existing Wall Connector? I believe/think only Gen 3’s load share but may be wrong. Ditch the Rivian wall connector and get another Tesla. Do a load calc on your service and if you aren capable have an electrician do it. Do run each wall connector on their own 60 amp...
