  1. Regenerative Braking Too Strong: Dealbreaker for Me?

    I want to coast? If keeping your foot on the "gas" is tiring when you feel like coasting, say on a long, long downhill just tap cruise control and charge your battery instead. rather than save "fuel" by coasting, you can put a few W back in your battery.
  2. Battery Pack Sizes: How did the efficiency between the Gen 1 and Gen 2 change so much?

    Thanks, for the info, maybe i misread searched info below and need to change to an AI search instead of regular google So it is interesting that Rivian is considering switching, even among its R1 models. UPDATE: Some commenters have suggested that Rivian will probably not be changing the...
  3. Battery Pack Sizes: How did the efficiency between the Gen 1 and Gen 2 change so much?

    check the specs on the battery chemistry one may be LI-iON vs NiMH gen 1 are i think almost exclusively NiMH vs gen 2 which could be either depending on date of production. I think RJ has moved to Li-ion for all the newer Rivs - lighter cheaper, faster charging, less costly etc. but hey i may...
  4. New (used) R1T Owner - Delivery & Eval Recommendations

    most fun I've had driving a vehicle since my first one. Hope that yours has any of the early bugs worked out. mine is a 2023 so came with manual cover, which i heard was an issue for many if not serviced or replaced.
  5. (Former) Tesla Model 3 Owners' (or those more familiar with Teslas) input needed

    if you want them in an EV get whatever is inexpensive that is on the market. late model Nissan leaf is a nice cheap EV that they can bang up and while quick enough is not fast. if you go with ICE then i would look at an old toyota gorilla - those are nearly indestructible. let them put some...
  6. Discontinuation of 21” wheels

    in the long long ago say 80-90 ish mustangs had 390mm wheels one of the worst choices ever. hope the 21's dont end up in that pile
  7. Asphalt driveway problems

    fresh asphalt, and turning the wheels on a 7000# truck without moving.
  8. Update - 2022 R1T Adventure

    I am there with you. loving the R1T am approaching 1 year of ownership and when people ask how i like it, i reply, i would but it again. i travel from Vancouver to Nelson BC on a fairly regular basis some 650K or 400+ miles and stop for one charge each way. On my first trip I charged for free...
  9. In Search For the Original Pre-order artwork for the Rivian R1T

    Since June of 2023 i have been driving my R1T quad motor truck and have told people who asked; I would but it again. I have destroyed too many rice burners, cobras, hellcats, and TRXs to count, as well as the regular Rams and such that think they can compete, when they have pulled up at a stop...
  10. In Search For the Original Pre-order artwork for the Rivian R1T

    sorry going to keep this, but i am sure that there are some out there. sent when i preordered in 2020 - September
  11. Drilling hole in hood?

    ....speed holes! great reference but unnecessary for Rivians.
  12. Home charging question

    are driving it as an UBER? the vehicle will sit for 10 hours every day otherwise, so 240 miles added over night? what is the issue?
  13. Truck totaled in transit from factory

    charge them interest on their failure to deliver on the full cost of the truck on whatever prime is plus 3% or whatever Rivians own financing cost is. Seems fair as they have your cash and you still want the truck. They have insurance on their shipping, so this should be the least that they...
  14. Saw a Cybertruck on the road ...

    A poor effort to emulate a CT. they didn't even change the door handles and the tail lights from what looks to be an old F150 - check the rear lights straight up F150. Same with the tailgate. Sad job of customizing. nice fender flares as well, is that just some rubber baseboard they glued on?
  15. Saw a Cybertruck on the road ...

    lol, it was a good attempt (if you can call it good) is so not a CT, when did ELON put door handles on, and why would there be a front grille? some a%#hat did a chop of a ranger or F-150 to make it look like a CT. fun experiment, but why customize to makes something so damn ugly. tail lights...
