  1. Volvo EX90 could be worthy competitor to R1S

    Looks incredibly comfortable and well thought out. Not as “adventure” focused as the Rivian but for 99% of people who spend 100% of their time on pavement, this looks like a well developed BEV. I’ll be hard pressed to go with Rivian if both are available to order at the same time. The Rivian is...
  2. Dual Motors and pre price increase

    You can buy 20/22’s for about $2-2500. Sell the 21’s for even half of that, you’ll be quite ahead comparatively. That’s my plan. Quad, forest green interior or whatever it is, and reinforced underbody.
  3. Took a road trip in my ICE vehicle. My thoughts...

    In large part it’s dovetailing off Polestar platform which means it has gone through several iterations of improvement. It’s not trying hard in the sense you can get single or dual motor, coil over suspension, etc. it’s also a robust brand and while it has historical issues (heater, sunroof...
  4. Took a road trip in my ICE vehicle. My thoughts...

    Volvo EX90. I’ll likely have mine before Rivian is ready to deliver the R1S. I want the Rivian size and capability but I want the comfort and simplicity of the Volvo.
  5. With Rivian's Wall St. Wreck in Rear View, I'd Take a Test Drive -- [RealMoney]

    And shares are down 5% today. The whole sector is but still notable.
  6. Shifting to Model 3...

    This is the most sensible option. I support this!
  7. 2023.02.05 update caused bandwidth issues with our household internet

    Insane amount of energy and data waste these trucks bring. 25mbps is slower than starlink. Sounds like you live in the woods. We have a 800mbps connection and never feel lag. I’d disable wifi in truck or use forget network and it should resolve the issue for you.
  8. Model X vs R1S

    I’ve had a first mile test drive in a R1T. Overall, it was a good experience. Only issue was the wind noise which sound like is a common issue and could be remedied. The display and ability will always pale in comparison to Tesla but this is focused more on drive experience. I test drove a...
  9. R1S Towing - Experience or Advice?

    I wouldn’t sweat it over 20 miles. 200 is a different story.
  10. [Poll] How did your R1S delivery estimate change w/ latest update?

    Switched to 21” from 22” so I qualify for the fed credit. I’d prefer to get underbody shield vs wheels and buy wheels later
  11. 0°F 110V charging test

    Is .8-1.2kwh really require battery conditioning? Over 7000 cells, seems unnecessary.
  12. CA Air already improving from EV Use - Article

    Cyber Semi will be a game changer. Industrial operations have greater impact on emissions than personal car usage.
  13. Washington GC Washer Fluid Group Buy - IT'S ON

    Not concentrate. Snip from the drum barrel pictured in another thread.
  14. Rivian should focus on features that set them apart from the rest of the industry, not AA/CP.

    My take is improve to UI. The first 100k sales will be due to new or cool factor or the off road idealizations. For the remaining 900k sales, the soccer moms, physicians, and white collars are going to want a functional UI that plain works. If they can’t get this to work or implement a highly...
