Most panels have a wind or hurricane rating. Usually more than the top speed of most Rivian’s. I would appreciate it for the shade too. I was using two similar panels hooked to an EcoFlow to charge a car when I read this post. I charge the Hyundai instead of a Rivian due to the amount of energy...

Our Ioniq 6 has a dongle with a single outlet, $99 from Lecteon. Unfortunately the lower level trim like ours doesn’t have an interior 120v plug. It is 15amp, so better than our Rivian’s.

I run in low 90% of the time. I aligned it in low. Excellent, even tire wear for me. I’ll probably get 36-40k miles with 5 way rotation on AT OEM tires. I replace tires at 4/32”. I would ignore the suspension and tire wear comments. People that run in auto and drive mostly freeway run in low...

Since someone mentioned the Hyundai adapter… it is only rated at 350 amps. So, there is another layer for potential confusion.

I choose the 150kW chargers when I pull up to an EA station. The 350’s seem to be broken, super slow (limited because of issues with the 350kW chargers) or have charging failures that require unplug & plug back in more often. My R1T seems to get from 15% to 70% just as fast on the 150kW as the...

Received my first mailed renewal for March (3rd year is a charm). Maybe California DMV finally fixed it.

Turn off the circuit breaker before removing any covers and/or touching any wires.

Storing a bottle jack contrary to the instructions is a failure of the operator, not of the jack.

October ‘23 delivery. Received the adapter two weeks ago after calling Rivian three weeks ago.

We have an R1T with the welded front subframe and a gen 1 R1S with the updated subframe. The R1S was delivered steering perfectly straight. The R1T pulled to the right. I used my alignment setup and the toe was set to factory specs on the R1T. So I turned both toe links the same amount to line...

How to set up a Rivian R1T to lose: don’t use soft sand mode in a low traction situation when going up a hill with loose rocks and putting suspension on highest for an articulation contest.

I have 2 Rivian’s and can only vote no once :shrug.

Thank you for everyone’s input. I ended up buying a driver set from Lowe’s for about $30. I used non residue duct tape to tape the 10mm socket and adapter to the handle and to secure the Torx bit (plus protect the wires from the sharp point). I used more non residue duct tape to secure...

My first electric car had 76 miles of range and my commute was 55 miles round trip. These stories are funny. Other than road trips, put me anywhere I normally am with 10 miles of range and I wouldn’t even break a sweat.

Thank you for beta testing. It helps avoid problems for us non beta testers.

@RivAW I have plug and charged at Tesla Superchargers. It billed to the credit card on my Rivian account. I am under the impression that if you have a discount plan with Tesla one needs to authorize it on their Tesla app before plugging in to get the discount billed through Tesla.

@ron40 Do you have a gen 2? This is in the manual for newer Rivian’s:

I was just reading that gen 2 drivers need to pull the stalk towards them instead of down. Maybe you have a gen 1 with a gen 2 stalk.

About 20 years ago I started getting so many flats. It was right after I moved to a housing development that was in the middle of build out. After it was finished I didn’t get any more flats. Did you move or are you driving by/to a location with lots of construction? Edit: Also a new windshield...

Were you in trailer mode?
