I suspect the Asheville area may has a lot more outdoor enthusiasts than Raleigh haha, maybe that’s why. I’ve seen probably 10+ on the road but still never just randomly run into someone and been able started up a convo

Hi everyone - Nate from Raleigh NC here. I've had my El Cap R1T since Nov 2022 and STILL have never actually spoken with another owner directly. Kind of surprised I haven't run into someone in a parking lot, kids' baseball game or anything like that. So if there's a meetup in the area, count...

No, not very well. I mean, it's a soft-sided bag so it could be stuffed down there, but going off of dimensions, as if the storage bag were mostly full, it is too long/wide) for the lower part of the frunk.

Thanks to the OP for the tip on frunk storage. For those R1T owners out there, I have this and love it for the gear tunnel. It lays pretty flat and has handles on both sides, so no matter which side of the vehicle you access the gear tunnel from, it's easy to reach in and slide the storage bag...

Reporting back here (again, sorry to the OP) as I just spent some time on the soft sand at Fort Fisher NC (Carolina Beach/Kure Beach) and over about 10-15 miles of beach driving I got a whopping 0.4 mi/kWh. Ooouucccchh I used All-Purpose half the time and soft sand mode the other half. I...

I thought of this originally but the “take a picture of your phone with your phone” thing was too much for my laziness at the time. But since you asked, here ya go ? So it’s not perfect and I definitely find myself lifting up to peek over the wheel and view directions from time to time. I...

in case anyone is curious, 16 (4x4) bails fit perfectly

oof - thanks fellas. I’m coming in from raleigh next weekend and the only fast charger on the way is in New Bern. At those mi/kWh rates I won’t get to do much beach driving over my Fri-Sun Cape Lookout visit. Well, that’s if I want to make it to New Bern on Sunday with a little range to spare...

Same here, totally got my hopes up. You or @Ghostrider9667 been out to Cape Lookout (NC of course) with your Rivians yet? I'm wondering what the realistic range expectations are on the soft sand. 1mi/kwh? worse?

just set this up, so far I’m a big fan.

I didn't read through all 20 pages (so far) of this thread, but did a keyword search and it seems no one has mentioned the EveryAmp product. I don't have this (placing order now) but it looks like the most elegant solution I've seen so far. Doesn't use adhesive and is made specifically for the...

@EV Sportline thanks for the speed to market on this one, I've got it in my cart ready to check out but wanted to double check one thing real quick. Can easily you roll up the cover while the bed rails are on? My actual situation will be even tougher (I will have a RTT mounted, so can't...

Good stuff, thanks for reporting back @Thedude. It seems like the simpler setup of a single generator may be the way to go. Unless I can figure out how to get past the 32A limit of the Rivian charger (i.e. looking for an aftermarket J1772 charger that supports more) or the 120V limit of the...

I'm definitely curious about these results from other owners as well. My R1T was delivered in Nov and I'm pretty sure I've never broken 2 mi/kwh even driving conservatively (I hear fast acceleration is a big drain). Do you guys do anything intentional outside of simply using conserve mode to...

Great news, the AC WORKS brand adapter that @rivianguy suggested works! Much thanks to you and @Thedude for helping to get this figured out. So my next bottleneck the natural limit of both the charger itself (32A) and the fact that I’ll never get more than 3600kW out of a 30A outlet pushing...

Awesome - simple and it works, good to see. If my pipe dream of getting more kW out of the parallel set up fails, it’s good to know I’m a couple adapters away from this. I talked to an electrician today who specializes in the RV and EV worlds, very helpful and sent him as much info as I had...

thanks - I didn’t catch that you went through multiple adapters, so that’s promising. I have it ordered and should be here today. Hopefully that specific adapter/plug has something special going on past just connecting the right wires. The blue one I got at Lowes was half the price so...

Welp - still a no go :crying: I got the neutral-ground bonding plug and that seemed to work for the single generator it was plugged in to (i.e. charger came on when plugged in to standard 120V outlet). But the parallel kit did not work. So I created another neutral-ground bonding plug for the...

I have a bonding plug arriving in the morning, so I’ll try that tomorrow, it sounds promising. With only the generator and parallel, the charger didn’t react at all, no white or any other color. I was expecting something like you describe (red error flashing or something), but nothing. Maybe I...

Welp - no go, so far. First attempt at both generators running with parallel set up….and R1T portable charger (using 50A plug and truck set to pull 20A) didn’t even recognize the power source. I suspect the truck is going to require the generators to A) be connected to an actual grounding...
