dangit there are too many el cap R1S's in Charlotte now... I also just took delivery of one this past Saturday

I am considering getting my wheels powder coated black, but I didn't realize until i pulled the inserts today that underneath it is a gunmetal color that matches the el cap pretty well, and I was curious if anyone had painted the machined faces black but left the gray? Or simply used the twraps...

were you actually able to get that rate? when I got quotes from USAA they were all pretty comparable to the Rivian interest rates around 6.5%. This is with an above 800 credit rating as well.

wtf. if you don't think the Rivian is special, then you're not a car guy. sincerely, a car guy also, I can't take you as a serious off roader sitting on BFG ATs. nothing wrong with those tires for all around use but not great if you're doing a lot of offroading. kinda sounds like you're...

and you can't take the doors and top off the Rivian. another strike, don't know if it fits the bill to replace my Jeep.

towing capacity is still infinite* *in the vacuum of space

you can disable android auto

if you do this, please post updates here... I don't have the R1S yet but I typically like a little bit more than most stock systems have

You would really only pay the registration fees twice, which to me is worth it. Although it might be worth researching the fees for the state you would be using the address from. I do think NC is an outlier in the collection of property taxes/highway use tax at the time of registration but I...

Had you all considered a more gradual transition like this? I think this might look better, but cool idea regardless. Really the best option would be if you could take a straight line all the way back but then you'd have to add vinyl to the rear as well I imagine.

So is it actually a thing that the secondary "driver" profile cannot adjust climate? That seems odd to me if true.

yeah I think if these were super rare, its uniqueness might be cool, but when you start seeing them everywhere, they're gonna be way less cool. And when they're not cool anymore, they're gonna start looking ugly.

weird, we've been charging our 2020 Y with a chargepoint charger and J1772 Tesla adapter for over 2 years now with no issues.

why would you need to keep buying new vehicles... there are really only two different versions for compatibility, wired or wireless. Regardless, the app will continue to update and you shouldn't need to change your car. For reference I have one of the earliest pioneer head units that supported...

wow, so they are prioritizing orders that were placed after the price increase

just rechecked the website and it finally has a delivery window and it matches what I found in graphql earlier (July-September) so pumped after seeing processing estimate for months. edit: just changed back to processing estimate, wtf haha

that sucks, I changed my delivery address to a friend's in DC for that reason... when I look in the graphql data, I now have an estimated delivery window of July-September.

hmm seems like you're confusing one-off projects with consumer products

To add to this point, and something I forgot to mention, but might've been mentioned elsewhere in this thread is there is no comparison between Tesla's navigation and Google's navigation, and this is simply due to the amount of resources Google allocates to maps. I would imagine Rivian is behind...

ok that's fair, I also have a background in systems engineering, work as a systems integrator, done a decent amount of electrical work, and built/repaired my own cars and computers for the last 20 years. I'm probably decently capable of taking it apart and trying to figure it out. The point...
