Aside from being able to get from Desert Ridge (N Phoenix) to Rocky Point on a single charge, took the R1T to Competition Hill:
Competition Hill or San Juan Hill

Had my two teenage girls in the back, hit 57-58mph on the way up. Have some...
Wow, Competition Hill and just all the ATV trails in Rocky Point are worth the trip to bring your Rivian R1T south of the border. First time here and glad I packed the 6 of us in the R1T vs the VW Atlas LOL
Speed is the critical element to efficiency. 55-60 mph is able to hit 2.7 KWh/mi. 65-75 and that drops to around 2.03-2.1. (Not completely accurate - in general the extra 10-15mph is a 30% hit on efficiency.
Each building (or at least two of each three by phase) has 1 or 2 spaces that has 240v. It’s slow this time of year so the spot closest to my elevator was open. I plugged in upon arrival and charged like I was at home. Need to bring your portable charging cable.
Now the question is if I am...
Normally I would play golf each day, but looking for something different - figuring I may head over to Competition Hill in the R1T - any reason I should or shouldn’t?
First timer in Rocky Point….
Charged the R1T full night before. Got about 10mi away from home (2mi east of Phoenix Rivian Service Center) and had to turn around as the significant other forgot passports and BCs. Picked up my daughter in Arcadia area.
Took i10 stopped in Gila Bend (wishing my Lectron Tesla-J1772 adapter...
I shared this solution on my service visit and was told that they are intended to replace the corrupt item in the control module but the tool to do so was only in the mobile service truck which will be out for 2-3 weeks and when the tool is back at the service center they will reschedule to...
i was the same - I wore it without taking it off for 2 weeks and it stretched apparently. I can use second- sometimes third - hole now. I showered, golfed, went swimming, etc with it. Not sure it is designed to stretch but mine did.
personally the band is pointless with my phone key. the only...
having visited the plant for business reasons - they have new battery tech planned for 2024. I mentioned to two different senior managers “i assume the max pack is a dead option - when it takes 3 LRG packs to build 2 MAX packs - and the need to hit the volume numbers for Wall Street”
they(and...
Yes. Just took it back after 1 week (they clean it and check for issues). The standard XPEL/Rivian kit is $4500. For $5100 they will assure that all edges get wrapped.
The tint is same cost as anywhere else. I had 70% put on roof, back window, front windshield, back door windows, and 30%...
The Charging pad is useless - I have to hold the phone - trying to find a place I can use their 3-D printer as someone designed a "jig" to help hold the phone in place. Every corner or simple "regen" braking causes the phone to move.
