LOL, was yelling at myself for making the mistake of allowing myself to be routed to that charger THREE MORE TIMES. First time, shame on you. Second time, shame on me. Third and fourth time, I'm just an idiot for not paying attention. Yes, was mad at EA for such a horrible location, but more mad...
That will be GREAT!
So far, 100% positive experiences at RAN chargers. Having access to Tesla chargers, despite likely being slower charge rates, will still be a great alternative.
The NEW Electrify America chargers seem to be reliable, as noted with Kettleman City, unfortunately, know way to...
They desperately need to move the Trip meters to the driver gauge cluster, like Tesla has it. Accessing it just hideous since they buried it a few updates ago. Should be one of the optional screens with Tire pressures, nav instructions and efficiency meter. Keep hoping they'll fix this in the...
I posted in June about a trip to northern California where I used the Electrify America Charger at 46331 W Panoche Road, Firebaugh, CA (Shell Gas Station off of the 5 Freeway). I had previously tried it and was horrible. In June, I wasn't paying attention and got routed there again. Same...
Read the title and my first reaction was "Sold".
But, does look like it sucks up quite a bit of the already limited space?
Looks like a quality product, but will have to see some detailed videos before deciding if it's for me
I really wish Rivian would do like Tesla and allow us to display trip meters on the left side of the driver gauge cluster. Such a pain in the rear to get to that page as of a couple of update ago. I use it all the time and really wish it was something I could just leave up all the time.
I haven't had my 21's on in a while, so don't remember the exact miles remaining at a full charge. I do however, remember on my 21's, I get very close to the actual rated range at 75-80 MPH on the freeways. I love that part!
Never knew riders were rated! Live and learn. Just checked mine as now I just had to know. I guess I haven't pissed off any Uber drivers yet. Still at 5.0
Not a bad looking vehicle. LOVE the vertical screen. So much easier to see and use based on my prior Model S experience. Don't understand these horizontal layouts. Ford also gets it right with the Lightning.
I'll go against the grain on this one. Seen many Ford's, Dodge's & Chevy's lifted in a similar manner with big tires. In my opinion, this one fits right in with those. If that's the look you want for YOUR OWN truck, then have at it. There's a gazillion of the other manufactured trucks lifted in...
Thanks for the write up. You're a brave soul. No way i would take on such a trip in any EV, just because of the extra charging time. My limit is about two stops. Any trip that requires more than that and I'll rent a car or fly. You mentioned 100 charges. Assuming at least 20 minutes extra at...

Definitely means no chance of leaving a trailer connected while charging. For those traveling late at night with empty chargers, there's no concern with blocking traffic. This having to be backed in, means you have to disconnect at most superchargers. Big turn off. I assume Tesla will start...
I don't think it's even glass to begin with. I often change in the back seat of my truck and bump into the ceiling and it sounds more like a plastic than it does glass. I guess could just be because its a very thin glass compared to door or windshield glass and why it sounds different when you...
We're all considered "early adopters" of something new. With that, comes some growing pains that the customer will have to suffer along with the company itself. But, we do also get a vehicle that is unlike any other and will continue to be unique for years to come. Anyone purchasing a Rivian...
