Need some more detailed in instructions on how to make this work for the $39,000 Cybertruck I reserved at the announcement. Thanks in advance!

I'm right there with you. The adapters give you full compatibility, even if not native. The way I see it is that the current generation of chargers are all basically on two standards (NACS vs. J1772/CCS). Every Tesla owner that I personally know carries an adapter to use J1772/CCS, and every...

They're still advertising features coming to Driver+ on the current (live) website, even though what they said today seems to conflict with that, and I think the deactivation & removal of the driver attention monitoring camera a while back made it pretty clear that hands free was never going to...

Should be pretty solid savings to Rivian, particularly given the amount of copper that is likely in the wiring that was removed.

Yes. Here's the link to what's included in Driver+ (standard on Gen 1): https://rivian.com/support/article/what-features-are-included-in-rivian-driver Note that page still says that highway lane-change assist & trailer assist are coming via future software updates, although there are mixed...

Can't speak for everyone on here, but I have enjoyed driving my 14 month old R1 just as much today as I did yesterday. Nothing in the announcements made anything in my truck work differently or less effectively than it did before the announcements. Sure, there's always something newer, better...

Only on the weekends.

Don't believe I've seen it posted in here yet, but it looks like Rivian Connect+ Pricing is going to be set at $14.99/month or $149.99/year if you pay annually (per TechCrunch). Pricing in Canada will be $19.99 monthly or $199.99 annually (official source on Rivian's website). Interestingly...

Camp Speaker is also +$450 (granted, you'd have to be absolutely insane to actually pay that for it).

Doesn't really impact me that much, but still disappointing that they appear to be walking back lane change assist & trailer assist (both listed as coming on the current D+ page that's still live on the website). I think they left the "may be introduced" in there to give themselves an out like...

Good find. I also think this is new, unless I'm mistaken:

D+ was advertised as including future upgrades at no cost/no subscription, if I recall / understand correctly. There will probably be technological limitations at some point, but suspect that the rebranding is intended to differentiate the free upgrade pathway (or move new features into that...

Clever of Rivian to push out the tri-max 3-6 months (with quad max being 2025). All but negates any concerns they'll have to sell any meaningful volume of those on the "pre-hike" reservation coupons that expire in September. All-in-all I think this is a good & smart upgrade path by Rivian. I...

Just another thought for those on the fence who are content with gen 1 version, there should be a flood of gen 1 demo vehicles coming to the demo shop in the near future, as I would have to imagine they're going to almost immediately cycle out of all of the existing demo units in favor of gen 2...

I was discussing this with a buddy the other day. I love my quad motor, but I can't think of a single situation where I've ever felt like I needed more than 835hp, nor can I think of a time where 500+ hp wouldn't have done the job either. Cool / fun to have, but extremely limited usage in...

As someone who lost a house to fire in the past, I'm glad everyone was ok (most important) and feel for you as the process of starting over is very, very difficult. It may make sense to hire someone to represent you against the insurance company as total losses are very hard for everyone (owner...

Agree the R3X aero wheels look great, but probably not fair to compare what's seen on a pre-production prototype to what's actually hitting the road since many things on any prototype vehicle are subject to (and, in almost all cases, will certainly) change once the vehicle hits production. That...

I strongly recommend AAA personally. It's pretty cheap piece of mind to me for what works out to be about ~$10/month. Yeah, it's an "old person" thing to have / pay for, but the towing alone is the reason I keep it (and, again, at the "Premier" membership level for the longer range tows)...

I'm not negating or downplaying your bad experience, but it still blows my mind that anyone driving a 1st gen vehicle from a "startup" EV manufacturer wouldn't spring the ~$150/year for AAA Premier (which includes up to 4 tows per year, one of which can be up to 200 miles and the remainder of...

That "eject" button by the charge point is an interesting addition. Can't wrap my head around what the benefit of adding that would be (given that it would presumably add cost & complications that could go wrong, unless they removed something else for it).
