We were considering St Louis to Destin last summer with my wife and 3 young kids (5 and under) but took my parents minivan instead and glad we did. Nashville specifically had terrible reviews for CCS chargers. Also there are stretches where you’ll be able to drive 80+ mph and that will kill...

Yes, it’s a more comfortable ride than Pirelli 22” stock tires and range seems to be on par with the 20” all terrains. Got 2.0 mi/kwh at 70 mph on a 50 mile trip but at 40 degrees. Here’s a pic with tire shine.

These look good! I will track efficiency too. My guess is that it’s similar to Pirelli stock 20” AT.

$100 each - I have 3 stock 22” tires available with about 6,500 miles on them. 2 have 8/32 of tread left, and 1 has 6.5/32. They are in good shape and evenly worn across the tread. One was damaged beyond repair (sidewall bead is damaged) so I replaced all 4 with Continental Terraincontact A/T.

I agree, best update yet! It’s the perfect balance and not at all bouncy or unsettled like soft was before.

I have mine ordered! Should be installed this week. Tirebuyer code honey10 for 10% off. $1,355 all in with tax and install. I had damage on one of the stock tires so went with replacing all!

On the charge screen you can reset the calculation. It specifically says range based in driving history. Mine shows 292 miles on AP, 321 on conserve. What’s interesting is at 50% it will show 151 miles AP and 165 miles conserve so the math doesn’t work out. Really the only way to know capacity...

I’d be surprised if an LFP pack has the ability to put out the power needed for dual performance. It could be NMC with less modules. If the standard+ is LFP that is without a doubt the one to go for. Model Y dual motor is basically $40k after tax credit, so this is way more expensive.

Base price is $3k cheaper. The R1S standard was set for $78k, now it’s $75k. Standard plus is a great option now.

You should be ok with dual motor or quad motor (conserve) large pack on 21” or 22”. Max pack is only about 13 kWh more usable capacity so it’s very costly. Your other option is waiting for the Ram REV or Ramcharger.

We have a car seat and booster back there and the 3rd row vents turn on every time. It must be some combo of weight and seatbelt. I actually wish they wouldn’t turn on now since it blows cold air. In the summer it’s nice that they turn on.

Defender 110. Same length as Model Y at 187”.

Looks good! Will a Rivian center cap fit these wheels? Or any solution for a black cap with no logo?

At home after a wash, nothing special.

Has anyone powder coated the Rivian 22” wheels to be a bronze color? I’ve seen some aftermarket 20” wheels in bronze and like the look on launch green. I don’t really off-road so I like the 22” style and size better for R1S.

Limestone looks awesome on cloudy days. I’m not a fan of it on bright blue sky days, it gets a blueish tint for sure. Go see all of the colors. They look different in person. Red would’ve been last on my list but is my second favorite after launch green (which I got thankfully).

They are the worst charging teslas actually. Which is shocking.

Thanks for posting! Pretty poor charging curve for the CT. Tesla doesn’t seem to have confidence in the 4680 cells yet since the curve for CT and the 4680 model y are terrible (see Branden flasch testing).

Because they are…this isn’t a new point, it’s been widely discussed here and elsewhere.

I agree multiple tests would be nice but max vs. large is almost entirely a capacity discussion (perhaps max is more efficient in the city with both motors engaged). We know the capacity difference so we know the expected range impact if we know efficiency.
