  1. Electrical Efficiency (how many miles/kWh are you achieving)

    2.36 mi/kwh lifetime with 22ā€ wheels, R1S quad motor, rarely use conserve, maybe 500 miles at most. About 5,500 total miles from May 2023 to now, in the Midwest, no long road trips yet.
  2. Max Pack vs Large Pack range test (by Out of Spec)

    Some incorrect data above. Large pack driven: 308.3 miles Large pack max range with using buffer: 317.2 miles Max pack driven: 334.5 miles Max pack max range with using buffer: 339.5 miles So the theoretical difference is 22.3 miles.
  3. Max Pack vs Large Pack range test (by Out of Spec)

    Here it is. Max pack definitely not worth the cost. Large pack driven: 308.3 miles Large pack max range with using buffer: 317.2 miles Max pack driven: 334.5 miles Max pack max range with using buffer: 339.5 miles So the theoretical difference is 22.3 miles.
  4. Explanation of changes - amending 2022 taxes

    It’s probably fine but you’re supposed to reference the forms that changed. As an example ā€œThe return is being amended to include form 8936 and a $7,500 tax credit on form 1040 schedule 3 for a vehicle placed in service 8/15/22.ā€ Make sure line 3 uses 8/15/22 as the date in service.
  5. R1S compact spare now available for order.

    Mobile service brought mine today. I called last week and already had a separate mobile service appointment for today. The price with tax and install was $505 since they honored the prior pricing.
  6. Rivian Max Pack EPA Data (document shows 141-142 kWh usable battery)

    Mine is off too, and that is my expectation that preconditioning, gear guard, etc. add to the total energy number but don’t impact the miles per kWh. And anyone who thinks Rivian didn’t ā€œcook the booksā€ the best they could to get to 400 miles has drank way too much kool aid.
  7. Customizing Interior LED Colors? (Halloween)

    Yes they really need to make this customized all the time. We can in my wife’s telluride. I really dislike the standard white light in the Rivian.
  8. How accurate is the 15 min efficiency meter?

    Whatever they use to calculate it is way off on the last 15 min screen, especially for shorter drives. It’s not a true efficiency average and I don’t know exactly how it’s calculated. I’ve tested this many times (my drive to and from work is exactly 15 min) and it can be magnitudes off from...
  9. Received my $7,500 Tax Refund for Amended 2022 Return!

    Just the 8936 filled out properly with a in service date of 8/15/22. Nothing else needs to be attached.
  10. Are there any products you need for the Rivian and nobody made yet?

    Cupholders for the rear would be nice. A revised lower console organizer with this design where the cupholders are in the back would be nice. This one fits large bottles well but doesn’t work with smaller one since there are not any clips. YEE PIN Upgraded R1T Lower Console Organizer Cup...
  11. 22" recommendations?

    Maybe I copied the wrong link. 115. https://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires.jsp?tireMake=Continental&tireModel=TerrainContact+H%2FT&partnum=75HR2TCHTXL&vehicleSearch=false&fromCompare1=yes
  12. List your Rivian (Enterprise) provided loaner car during service

    Aren’t these the new turbo inline 6? Edit-looks like the 6.4 v8 is standard, which I’m sure sounds amazing. I got an Audi q7 with the turbo v6. The engine is good, but really unimpressed with everything else for a $75k vehicle. I’d take my wife’s telluride over it.
  13. 22" recommendations?

    I believe the Generals are the tires that come on the f150 lightning so should be decent. I’d lean towards the Continental if you can wait until they are back in stock. They are highly rated, and should last a little longer...
  14. What are your top 3 reasons for purchasing an R1S?

    1. Electric and all that comes with it, performance, charging at home, instant power, reliability, etc. 2. Styling outside and inside 3. Space for 3 (soon to be 4) kids and all of our things 4. Value with old pricing, there’s nothing that compares
  15. Can’t get to 100%

    Charging to 100% can take forever for the last 1% since it’s top balancing the pack. 30+ min isn’t unreasonable.
  16. 怐BestEvMod怑Let’s Do a Giveaway Raffle! End on 8/29

    STL arch and old cathedral
  17. R1S spare is available

    Same, they said not available yet.
  18. Ride quality R1S vs R1T? Should I be worried about reviews?

    I recently switched to stiff in all purpose mode for everyday with the R1S and the bouncing is gone. Ride is a bit harsher and the 22ā€ wheels don’t help but overall feels fine and the handling has improved. Something in between soft and stiff would be good.
  19. Validate my justification to convince wife

    If you like cars and can afford it and it’s not a stretch financially, go for it. There’s not a financial justification to spend $60k (assuming qx60 is worth $20k - $25k) the only justification is that you want it, which is fine. We had the exact same cars as you earlier this year. We hated our...
