Thanks for saving me some money.

I have been considering this, but haven’t had time to pick one up...

My guide called me a couple of days after I picked up my truck and said he was being reassigned to the West coast. He told me he would try to help me, but best bet was to call the generic numbers if I needed help.

I guess I was 2 weeks too early, but man has the truck been fun this week!

Thanks for the tips.

Where I live we have a monthly $24 customer charge and off-peak we pay $.08+. On-peak is closer to $.12, but I won’t charge then.

I have 2 200 amp panels and will have a 60 amp breaker and wire installed. I might have to have a serious discussion with the electrician about loading, but I know it is one I can win.

So far I have had an online quote and an in person quote and they have been the same. It will be interesting what the next one is.

Have an electrician coming next week to tell me how much for an outlet here at the house. It is the long term goal.

I got my truck less than a week ago and don't have a way to charge at home yet except a 120 outlet. We have a DCFC associated with our local utility and CharePoint that is close that I charged at today. I set the charger as a destination and saw the message of pre-conditioning. When I got to the...

Doing real truck stuff ;). Don't know if you know, but Honda trucks have a nickname, NART(Not A Real Truck).

It may be more enjoyable, but after driving Honda/Acura products for 36 years, it is going to be a steep learning curve on control locations. Our last two Acura had the touchpad, so it was getting me ready for something new. :)

Our ‘19 had walk away lock, but touching the door handle was nice for unlock. i didn’t use CarPlay much, but it was handy. Missed most will be the two-way tailgate.

I guess I found a color and stuck with it.

After many starts and stops, I picked up my 2023 R1T on Thursday. I was able to secure a 3 year lease of a quad motor. I can safely say leading up to the actually pick up was pretty intense and those that waited years I applaud you, I don’t think I could have stuck it out. The Franklin SC was...

Not to be a Debbie Downer, just a different viewpoint. What folks must understand about autonomous driving is the lesson from the movie “I Robot”. The computer will use logic and take the path of least loss. For simple situations like stopping to avoid collision, simple, but to avoid a crowd of...

I would still like to own a Rivian, but after this experience it will take a bit before i jump into the pool again. i really think we need to move away from ICE vehicles, just not sure what is next.

My guide asked if I wanted to use my original truck for the trade in to offset, but my truck was valued at $26,000+ and I didn’t wanted to do that. At the payment screen there is an informational “i” next to the amount to pay. Even that showed the lower amount. i wish i had taken screen shots...

Everything I have read about leasing is to put down as little as possible, in many threads I read on this site. Since the $10k was a total surprise and changing everything I had read about my terms, that was my biggest problem. If Rivian and put it back into the monthly fee, I would have been fine.

Not so. I had a $26+ trade when buying. I would have been happy ok with $800 a month lease payments. What I didn’t like was being told I had a $2825.50 payment due at signing in one place and then a $12825.50 payment when I was supposed to make the payment.
