  1. Any SoCal electricians want to make a buck? Pre-wired EV garage charger.

    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...
  2. Any SoCal electricians want to make a buck? Pre-wired EV garage charger.

    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.
  3. Evotrex-PG5 RV Trailer: Off-Grid Camping with AC On — V2V Charging, Home Energy Backup, and More

    Are you able to give us more info on how the battery can recharge at 75kw when towing? I assume this would be using full time regen to be possible.
  4. Evotrex-PG5 RV Trailer: Off-Grid Camping with AC On — V2V Charging, Home Energy Backup, and More

    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.
  5. What do you think of these 10-year real-world cost comparisons?

    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...
  6. Speculation - R1T cost after R2 launch…

    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...
  7. Launch Mode - Times

    My one and only launch in our Tri R1S was 2.9 seconds.
  8. From an EV9 to an R1S – My Experience & Opinions

    Yeah we thought it looked super cheap especially in the brown color. Our 2020 Telluride had a much nicer interior.
  9. Doug DeMuro Can't Stop Praising R2

    Don't dismiss the power of soccer moms demanding their three row SUVs even if they only have one brat.
  10. 2nd Gen R1S Apple Key behavior at home

    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...
  11. 2026 Rivian R2 Specs & Reviews!! 300+ Mile Range, 10-80% Charge in 30 Min, 656 hp / 609 lb-ft, 0-60 mph in 3.6s, dimensions

    No different than a '26 R1. If you want muskrat's member pricing still have to initiate the charge through the app. R2 will be the same.
  12. Tale of the Tape: Which do I go with Rivian R1T Owners?

    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...
  13. 2026.03 Update Pushed! Now Installing

    Is this a new feature? If so, how do you trigger it?
  14. Any thoughts on an e-scooter to complement an R1T?

    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...
  15. 2026.03 Update Pushed! Now Installing

    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
  16. $2500 Autonomy+ one time purchase now an option on Rivian configurator

    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...
  17. $2500 Autonomy+ one time purchase now an option on Rivian configurator

    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.
  18. $2500 Autonomy+ one time purchase now an option on Rivian configurator

    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.
  19. $2500 Autonomy+ one time purchase now an option on Rivian configurator

    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...
