  1. Hey there’s a new RAN station in Olancha, CA

    When I took delivery last week (yay) the fella showing me all the features plotted my usual trip to Mammoth and Olancha came up. It looks to be near the gas station (Exxon?) but I didn’t really inspect it close enough to be sure. I am planning to head up there soon and will check it out.
  2. How would home solar panels with powerwall batteries works with charging the Rivian?

    good to know. I am basically net zero (NEM 2.0) and was figuring I’d be looking at around $100/mo when I get the R1S so good to get some validation on that. Obviously it may change based on driving and charging habits.
  3. How would home solar panels with powerwall batteries works with charging the Rivian?

    I believe with NEM 3.0 you’ll be best off charging your powerwall batteries during the day while generating energy and then using the batteries in the peak rate times of 4pm-9pm to power your house (that is SDG&E peak, PG&E may be different). If powerwall is slick enough to divert excess after...
  4. *New Product Alert* Front Runner Slimline II Roof Rack Installed.

    I have had a slimline II on my current rig (GX460) for a few years and some of their accessories are well thought out and others not so much. The water cube has come in handy on remote camping trips and the camp table is nice (had to re-glue the table tops into the frame on mine with suitable...
  5. Charging in Mammoth Lakes, CA

    As long as they don’t put a RAN site at Eagle and ban us all to there ?
  6. How Many Charging Apps Do You Have?

    you got me at least curious here. We rented from Hertz this summer on a family vacation and got a Model 3 and it was a great experience. There was a supercharger location super close to where we were staying and it was just plug and charge. I could imagine with one of their other EVs...
  7. Is the Model X now a better buy over R1S? (WARNING: NO ELON MUSK DISCUSSIONS)

    Over the past 18 months while waiting to hear my R1S was coming I scoped out the model X a couple times but just couldn’t pull the trigger due to the price, the inability to run AT tires and the general minivan-ness of it. Now that my R1S is on its way I am sooooo glad I waited. Had the X...
  8. Latest VIN check R1S. What is the real production rate...

    Got assigned a vehicle today. 190xx.
  9. August delivery updates are in! What is your new estimated delivery window?

    My Jan ā€˜22 quad R1S (white on black) just moved from Q2 ā€˜24 to Sept-Oct ā€˜23 so excited to hopefully take delivery soon. FWIW I did the test drive a few weeks ago and indicated I was ready to go.
  10. Price locked customers will soon be able to

    I think some folks may switch if cost-neutral to them if range and delivery date are more important than 4 motors. If I could get an R1S sooner and the range is indeed higher as they claim, that might convince me to change. The four motors was the sole option when I placed my order and I...
  11. Price locked customers will soon be able to

    I have a res prior to price change, R1S with large pack and quad motor which was the only option when I ordered. It will be interesting to see if I am able to change configuration to different drive and/or battery setups and what the cost impacts are.
  12. Snow Mode and 20" A/T killed it in Mammoth + RAN chargers worked flawlessly

    Hey for those of you who've been up to Mammoth what is the approximate amount of range consumed going up the hill from Bishop (R1T or S)? I am just curious - we make several trips to Mammoth annually and it will likely be my first trip when I get an R1S someday. Also I saw a R1S in front of...
  13. Glacier White R1S delivery at San Jose

    Looks great. Congrats on the glacier white!
  14. ? Estimated Delivery Date Window is LIVE! What’s Yours?! ?

    Has anyone else seen the delivery estimate disappear from their account? I got the email end of October and looked at my account and the delivery window was "2024" for my R1S. Not thrilling but I only placed my order in January of 2022 so I didn't expect a miracle. Now my account shows...
  15. R1S ONLY: October 2022 Delivery Estimate Updates

    I had a 1/2022 preorder date (white ext, black int) and delivery window is now "2024".
  16. Introductions! Drop in and say hello new and old members...

    Just joined up here, based in San Diego with a white R1S on preorder. I was originally going for blue, then saw a red R1S in town and changed to that as it was looking sharp. That lasted a couple weeks until I saw a white R1T near my office and was instantly sold on the white and I am thinking...
  17. Don't Use USAA insurance for your Rivian

    I have an ongoing USAA experience that is not with a Rivian (still waiting for an R1S) but with our Audi e-tron. It seems like USAA does everything electronically now and does not send an adjuster to physically see the car. For us, this has resulted in back and forth between USAA and the body...
