Yep that's what I'd do. And as much as I don't like giving muskrat my $$$ I'd definitely get the universal wall charger if I was shopping for a 48v charger. The power sharing option could come in super handy in the future for a two EV household. Just put a Rivian sticker on it so you don't...
Have your electrician or installer verify the wire is 6ga copper. Depending on the length of the run might be able to change the breaker to 60a and charge at 48a.
I am very interested in the Evotrex. My wife is retiring in a year and we plan to roam North America looking for our retirement home. Really wish Evotrex would give us an idea of the tongue weight. We have no desire to get back into a 3/4 ton diesel.
Run a graph for me please. R1S Tri purchase price = 96k. .02 per kw L2 home charging for 9 months of the year. .03 per kw for three months of summer. Montana registration so no sales tax and roughly $900 to register and annual renewal steps down every year. After 10 years there are no...
If you want a Rivian the 0% is a no brainer. We'd be a two R1 family if they had that 9 months ago. Park the savings at one of the online banks that has real interest payments. Compare the cost of DP vs Tri. If you wait until 2027 you will then be thinking about the '28 '29 rumors. We could...
Yes. In the proximity locking disable "unlock at home". Then it will lock when you walk away and won't unlock until you press the indent on the driver's handle. If you don't need it to lock then disable both lock and unlock. We both wear Apple Watches and this setup works perfect for us. No...
We have a '25 Tri. I have driven a handful of G1 R1T service loaners. They were all '22 Launch Editions. IMHO the G2 is superior in almost every category. That being said the loaners get beat to shit and don't get problems fixed. Many had noisy half shafts, smelled like mildew, had original...
Yes it was a joke. Sport bike tolerance takes time to strengthen the muscles that don't get used on a upright bike. I can ride a GS or GSA Beemer (with risers and a Sargent seat) for an 800 mile day and not bee too trashed. Few years ago dealer sent me home on a loaner K1300S which is mild...
I'm guessing this update will be heavily focused on Autonomous +. Maybe even what was shown during AI day. They have to give people a reason to plunk down $2,500
We split time between homes that are over 1,100 miles apart. Been using Bluecruise, Rivian's system and Supercruise for the past 4 years. Using these systems for for a 14+ hour driving day makes a huge difference in driving fatigue not to mention safety. I have little to no interest in city...
Haven't had any phantom braking since we dumped our muskrat mobile. It was so bad I had to drive across KS with no cruise control. Ioniq 5, Lightning, Rivian and Sierra EV no phantom braking.
Who knows what's up with Ford. The bought my '22 Lightning back for what I paid for it after two years. I was over the lemon law mileage limited but they wanted it back. I'm guessing they wanted it so their engineers could dismantle the battery pack. Then they cancelled the Lightning.
I agree with everything you said. However we have over 3k in reward points and they don't have a hard sided roof top tent that we want. A good portion of these points will expire in a year.
We don't get any benefit from trading our vehicles other than convenience so I always sell them myself...
