  1. Rivian buy back: what should my next vehicle be?

    The Audi Q6 is based on the same platform. I've driven both multiple times and - as much as I want the Porsche because "Porsche" - the Q6 is much more practical, though more storage space comes at a range hit. I also like the Q6's infotainment stuff more, too. But, the Gravity also looks...
  2. [Debunked by ABRP] Rivian R2 / R3 / R3X Range Figures & Powertrains

    Oh no, really? I think the Ioniq 5 looks slick. 20 year old me would be wanting that one. Throw a couple of Fosgate 10”s in the back. The Ioniq 6, on the other hand, looks like a car that’s very sad at its lot in life.
  3. The Ultimate Rivian RTT Showdown: Air Cruiser vs. iKamper Skycamp Mini

    I don’t know if you received it, but I just got an email this morning with an update. Look for “Your Air Cruiser has arrived in Los Angeles” as the subject line.
  4. The 2025 Rivian R1S Large pack is...uh...not so Large (or efficient)

    My anecdotal experiences on my Gen 2 Dual Performance Large+ with 21k miles. Lifetime is pushing 2.6 miles/kwh, and I expect (hope) that to go up a few ticks over the summer since I took delivery in September as temperatures started ticking downwards. I have many stretches under 50mph when I’m...
  5. Picked up the DUNE & HVAC already broke!

    "Limited" to the number of issues they can introduce, apparently. But seriously, that color is growing on me and I hope the issues get resolved quickly for you. Lisan al-Gaib! He's everywhere!
  6. New Rivian dispensers and non competitive pricing

    You might want to check your calculator. It appears to be broken. $0.28 compared to $0.20 *is* “a little extra.” …as is brake fluid flushing, regular oil and filter changes, and everything else that helps you achieve that massive $0.08 per mile savings. A savings which is variable, since that...
  7. New Rivian dispensers and non competitive pricing

    Aah yes, the continued FUD of false equivalencies. Cents per mile. That’s it. That’s the metric.
  8. Rivian is more tech company than car company [article]

    "Rivian's more tech now, than car. Twisted and evil." - Obi-Wan, maybe.
  9. Rivian RAN Charging Network ranks tops in reliability, equaling Tesla Superchargers

    "[It is] Folly to expect DCFC to be cheap. [It] Was always going to be more costly than home charging." He didn't say he wanted RAN to be "cheap." He said "so expensive." You focused only on his home rate. Tesla Superchargers are also DCFC, are also more costly than home charging, yet are...
  10. 70 mph Range Test - Tri / Max / Defenders / Conserve = 335 miles

    I hear ya. I went from Utah to CA on Monday and it was the single worst drive I've had yet on my Gen 2 R1S, and I've done over a half-dozen 1200 to 3000 mile road trips since getting it, averaging anywhere from 2.5 to 2.8 mi/kwh per trip. I think the final round trip average this past weekend...
  11. Undocumented Changes in 2025.06

    I just finished a 1200 mile trip. During the drive up to my destination the Enhanced assist worked very well, when it worked. It very clearly needs a database update as soon as possible. As soon as I hit the CA/NV border, into NV, it shut off right away. It didn't announce its availability...
  12. Update 2025.06 is out!

    Maybe related to you or not, but an interesting thing I’ve noticed for two separate updates now, is that, like you, when I get into the car and it wakes up it needs to re-establish communication with my wifi. However, when software updates start to roll out, if I leave my house and go run an...
  13. RJ Demonstrates Autonomous Hands-Free Driving Aids

    My Gen 2 just got the latest update yesterday, and honestly, if that's as far as Enhanced Driver+ gets, I will be more than satisfied. I'm just hoping they add more highways to their database since the "RED ALERT! TAKE OVER DRIVING NOW!" warnings can be a bit abrupt. ? I hate to say it, but...
  14. Update 2025.06 is out!

    And conversely, just because YOU are satisfied doesn't mean everyone has to be. Remember, it's partially because people have come to *expect*, demand, or complain about updates that we get them at all. If not one single consumer agitated or complained about x, y or z feature not being...
  15. 2025.06 Update Release Notes

    Yeah there's never really an exact date. If you use Electrafi.com you can see when software starts pushing out fleetwide, but usually once release notes are made public it's anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks, unless there's an issue found and they have to pull back the release.
  16. Review: R1 Gen 2 wireless charging pad vs. TWRAPS dual-magsafe charger

    Oh, I absolutely think this is the issue I've been having. With the Opensourceev insert and 2 independent USB-C chargers, I'm guessing it won't have that issue because it's using both ports (not ideal). How does your charger split the power for 2 chargers coming from one USB port, if it's only...
  17. Review: R1 Gen 2 wireless charging pad vs. TWRAPS dual-magsafe charger

    Question 1: It happens when charging 1 phone, but most often while charging 2. Ask: Ooh that's a good idea. I'll do that.
