  1. Can we stop asking for CarPlay now? "The next generation of Apple CarPlay will take over all of the screens, sensors and gauges in a car..."

    Hold on - the purpose of this thread was to debate anti-trust law? I assumed it was to discuss the merits of Rivian offering CarPlay and how now they shouldn’t. I was merely pointing out that even if Apple requires ALL screens to be controlled (which I doubt and claims made in legal filings are...
  2. Can we stop asking for CarPlay now? "The next generation of Apple CarPlay will take over all of the screens, sensors and gauges in a car..."

    I don’t follow why any of this matters - Apple doesn’t break down your door and force CarPlay on you or any iphone owning consumer (including Rivian drivers). Further, it is a near certainty that taking over all screens would not be required to use CarPlay (as that would render countless cars...
  3. PSA: Don't leave seatbelts connected

    What you are describing only works if it were the REAR seat belt. No child has ever been left in the front seat and died (well I guess I can't say its never happened, but it certainly isn't the scenario that predominantly occurs). Further, the seat belt being buckled/unbuckled would imply it is...
  4. PSA: Don't leave seatbelts connected

    I loooooove people like this (meaning the person you are responding to). It is so insanely frustrating. And I agree with you that this needs a fix. In fact sleep or deep sleep should be an app feature generally.
  5. Will Rivian NACS adapter allow charging with just V3 and V4 Tesla superchargers?

    We really need a charging sticky that explains Supercharger availability; adapter availability, etc. Its super confusing and a popular grou question.
  6. First Rivian Charger in New England?

    The double whammy of my (formerly) go-to superchargers being currently incompatible and the Lebanon RAN not being done yet is killing me for ski season . . . why won't these people think about my ski season!!
  7. Tesla engineer urges Rivian to move charge port location on R2, R3, R3X for Supercharger access

    People routinely back into their garage/driveway? That's not possible for me (Practically). I am just struggling to see any argument this is "better for" or "saving" current owners. It is in the worst spot for home charging if you set it up for a current R1. Edit: folks I understand if you...
  8. Tesla engineer urges Rivian to move charge port location on R2, R3, R3X for Supercharger access

    What am I missing on the first point? The charge port is now located at the furthest corner from the current location. My charger is right next to the front/driver’s side. Now I need to have a cable long enough to reach the far back/passenger side. Isn’t it in the worst location (note: doesn’t...
  9. Ski Resort L2 Charger etiquette

    Yea, um . . . okay. [responded to the wrong post . . . this one I agree with]
  10. Ski Resort L2 Charger etiquette

    Huh, well if this is true for a Rivian, its different than any other EV I've had (in terms of unlocking), but point remains, certainly not going to get towed in this scenario (or even remotely worried about that - I've owned an EV for 7 years and have never ever seen or heard of any car getting...
  11. Ski Resort L2 Charger etiquette

    Agree to disagree. If I am a dick for using spaces in this manner, I will live with that. If you are arguing that you need 4-5 hours of charging but decide not to charge because you are skiing all day, well then sir, thank you for the charging space! NO ONE and I mean NO ONE leaves a ski area to...
  12. Ski Resort L2 Charger etiquette

    I do it all of the time. I can get up to VT with 30-40%. I drive to the lift early, plug-in and charge all day, then I don’t need to charge on the way back.
  13. Ski Resort L2 Charger etiquette

    Unsure what or who this is directed at but thinking someone is going to depart a ski area, move their car to a lot that is likely far away, wait for a shuttle bus and then return to the mountain, I don’t know what to say. These are all day spots with chargers at them. That’s the general...
  14. FYI: Tesla Supercharges will not work with Rivians until officially announced as compatible.

    Yea, but I will say if you are desperate and don't want to wait for the free adapter when released, buying an adapter now for future use isn't a crazy idea. But they certainly don't work now as you say (and has been confirmed dozens of times).
  15. ⚡️ Rivian announces: March Tesla Supercharger access & free NACS adapters!

    Unsure exactly what you are asking (perhaps we're talking past each other or I am not understanding), but there are 3 types of Supercharger right now (and you can go to Tesla's very detailed map to see them). NACS compatible (these work with only Fords, but to include Rivian, etc.), Magic Dock...
  16. ⚡️ Rivian announces: March Tesla Supercharger access & free NACS adapters!

    You mean them periodically limiting access? Because there are many v3 superchargers that are not available to non-Teslas per the Tesla website. They certainly seem to have kept out many high-use superchargers. I know because both superchargers that I was excited about on my route to skiing are...
  17. Ski Resort L2 Charger etiquette

    There is zero.zero chance I am going to trudge back to my car, unplug it, drive to some far off parking space and then go back to ski because my car is charged. Pretty sure that's the universally held view. But I will say that I only plug in when I need a crap load of charge and given how...
  18. Are Rivians being built with NACS plugs yet? Any NACS adapter plug recommendations?

    No; free adapter coming when the superchargers are open to Rivian. if you want a AC adapter for tesla destination chargers, several choices, with TeslaTap being most popular.
  19. First Rivian Charger in New England?

    Thanks - I need this thing to open!
