  1. Why I can't recommend this dumb truck as of 4/7/2023

    It’s ok, you just aren’t an early adopter. Sell it to someone who will absolutely love it, and move on.
  2. Confirmed by Rivian: No more frunk 12v outlet going forward

    I took delivery today of my R1S and it has the frunk and under dash 12v plugs.
  3. I don't feel valued as a customer

    Vast majority of R1S deliveries are still pre-2021 orders, you aren’t being robbed. I ordered 2/1/2020 and still don’t have it. 20 mins from SC and not OC interior.
  4. R1S cabin noise/compressor, etc.

    DO you have the 12v under the dash? My Vin is 33xx, but still don't have the vehicle yet.
  5. My First and Likely Last Post

    Yea good call, you don’t sound like you are ready to be an early adopter
  6. Michelin Defender tires installed on 20" wheels

    The lack of a recommended winter tire is a big miss and a safety issue. To say using one like a Nokian LT3 that meets all of the vehicle specs will void the warranty is ludicrous.
  7. latest VIN for R1S

    Thanks!
  8. latest VIN for R1S

    Yup really. I got a new guide 2 weeks ago, but she went on vacation evidently as I’m getting an auto reply. The only vehicle update I’ve gotten in “In transit” since early Feb. in general both guides have not been very responsive so it’s probably at the SC.
  9. latest VIN for R1S

    Supposedly 33xx, been “in transit” for like 6 weeks, can’t get update from guide. ?‍♀️
  10. No tax credit for customers with binding contracts.

    That’s true, but aren’t they telling people who bought in 2022 but took delivery in 2023 that they don’t qualify for the old rules (the no income cap rules)? And if so, how could someone who bought in 2023 possibly qualify?
  11. Some Quick Math on Electrical Grid CO2 Emissions and Vampire Drain

    Interesting, however this is just post-production, and does not factor in the CO2 emissions from manufacturing and battery mining.
  12. Michelin Defender tires installed on 20" wheels

    I think these are 53lb tires, while the ATs are 48lb.... I think a lighter road tire on 20s should outperform the 21s in range. With Teslas, smaller wheels alway get better range.
  13. Dual Motor range estimate

    Unless Unless it’s significantly lighter I’m not sure how it could be much better than where conserve is now.
  14. Snow tires for 21" wheels?

    Yes you can put winter tires on the 21s and several owners have done it. Nokian even recommends one on their site. The catch is it’s a slightly different size at 275/50 R21 https://www.nokiantires.com/rivian/
  15. Dual Motor range estimate

    In the end it electric motors moving a very heavy vehicle. There is only marginal improvement using conserve which in effect is cutting down to 2 motors that are smaller than the dual motors. So dual will likely have similar range to conserve on the 4 motor.
  16. Why doesn't Rivian badge the Quad?

    I prefer the minimalist design of the Rivians, too many badges would take away from that.
  17. Keeping my Rivian outside?

    It’s fine, I always thought bringing vehicles inside the house was quite excessive anyways.
  18. Cold weather Kills the battery!

    Do you run heat inside your garage?
  19. Cold weather Kills the battery!

    Most R1T owners are seeing more like 20% range loss at 20 F
