On my knees for West Yellowstone.

Fantastic shots! This was mine in Denali several years ago with ICE. Maybe when Rivian expands RAN?

Professional production. They should be acknowledged at a higher level.

My disappointment is with the dozens of Tesla V2 Superchargers that are not available through Nevada, Idaho, Wyoming.... A couple V3 in Burney, ID. You are still stuck with L2 scheduling for a Yellowstone trip.

It would be an interesting addition. I've had a winch on a 1996 Discovery and a 2016 Overland diesel. Not absolutely necessary but it was good insurance a few occasions. My concern with the Rivian is that it would need a robust auxiliary 12 volt battery.

These folks have a direct DC to L2 charger but it is not inexpensive.... https://enteligent.com/products/enteligent%E2%84%A2-tlcev-t1-trusted-charging-presale

I'm a photographer and I am impressed by his control of the dynamic range. He knows what he is doing. The golden/blue hour shots are the most challenging.

It looks like the early R1S had two 12 volt batteries and the newer ones have one 12 volt and some sort of super capacitor. The Rivian batteries look smaller - I don’t think Costco has an equivalent replacement. My Kia EV6 GT-L had a defective OEM 12 volt battery. (It seems to be an an issue...

Technically, the plug side is "indoors". If it doesn't get wet, I wouldn't worry about the socket side.

I’m looking forward to more charging options while traveling hither and yon. I was very excited when Elon opened the Tesla V3 network but was disappointed when I found that older V2 Superchargers were not accessible as of yet - such as in West Yellowstone which is a DC desert for non-Tesla. I...

I owned a Mach-E GTPE. My dealer “broke it” after 8,000 miles so Ford stepped up and gave me a full buy-back without question. (My check paid for the Rivian R1S a couple weeks later!) The Rally version has less than 6.5 inches of ground clearance. The Magnaride suspension gives you the...

Blue Ox for a personalised plate was already taken. :(

My Kia EV6 GT-L has a heat pump which works just fine. Even thawing out my car in West Yellowstone. My Rivian R1S has a four-slice toaster with a fan for a heater - it also works just fine. Both vehicles have butt warmers and heated steering wheels so I shall survive in the first world.

Passenger rear in the Kia...

Twice the fun! Wrong side for Tesla SC. No CarPlay, 12 volt ports, AM radio, etc., etc. Plus all the stuff the R1S does have.

Prime real estate! Brings back fond memories. Twenty two years ago, I used to maintain the Echo Summit monitoring station for the California Air Resources Board. My particulate monitor used to get "drowned/buried" by the CalTrans snow blower when they cleared the parking lot.

I have 18K miles on my Kia EV6 GT-L with the Michelin Defenders. Best tires I have ever purchased. Wear, range, performance, noise, etc. #1 rated on Tire Rack. These are the next shoes for the R1S.

I was a camera/video/scientific optical technician in the "last century". Consumer Reports gave a #1 rating to the worst camera ever produced. It was 20% of our repairs for all cameras. It had stamped aluminum parts instead of steel - guaranteed to fail but "CR" liked the light feel of the...

How about dirty and stepped on? How about dirty and stepped on?

Maps are not omniscient and my Rivian satellite maps are seven years out of date. I often find milage instructions useful. Just because you do not, is there a reason you want the rest of the owners to be denied the option? You should be be offered the option to turn it off. This local...
