I totally agree. The most interesting point is the defenders of NOT having Carplay. I dont see how you defend not having the option that can only be considered “better”. As an also Tesla owner its one of my biggest complaints there. At least Tesla’s nav is workable (and yes I know the real...
I dont get the interest (I also own a Tesla Model 3 which I do love) in the cyber truck but the more EVs on the road the better. I wish them all the success in this truck but I wouldnt buy it in a million years.
If there is an option to select use RAN only and you select that then that would be the reason. I think the routing software should perform as the options allow. In my particular case the RAN charger is on the way and more efficient (faster charging) but its trying to send me to a slower...
I have noticed over several trips recently that even though I have selected to only use RAN network I am still getting routed to non RAN chargers even when there is a RAN charger in fairly close proximity to the non RAN charger the nav is trying to send me to.
Example - On a recent drive from...
Seems like a wise decision to me actually. The cost to install is probably low, they will need these charges for floor room models anyways so they have to be built and adding them and all the locations is probably a good selling point to potential customers. Seems like low hanging fruit from a...
I have noticed this very early preconditioning as well now that I have stared taking road trips. Some times it kicks in 90 minutes before arrival at my charging location. Sure I am not an expert and dont know the variables that go into this but my comp is a Tesla Model 3 which usually starts...
I have had same issue as I am on a trip from Mammoth Lakes to Lake Tahoe. For a few reasons I had to keep my journey within the state of California but the nav will try to push you the way it sees as ideal. There is no way (that I know of) to pick waypoints or alternate routes. It would be...
OK thanks. Yeah I am in Mammoth Lakes and now rethinking my comment from moments ago about using an extension. Ill ask my electrician about moving the charger next to the garage door - this wont be a pretty estimate I am sure given my configuration…
Thanks this is where I am currently leaning and will probably go (Lectron 20 foot coupled with Rivian mobile charger or Lectron 40 foot). I dont think I have any other reasonable options. I see the comment about not being UL rated. Ugh and coincidentally a house just down the street burned...
I don’t think so and this is my current plan which is why I’m looking for an all weather extension cord recommendation (unless someone has a better idea).
I have a place up in the California Sierras where we get A LOT of snow. I have a NEMA 14-50 setup for my Tesla in the garage but just found out a fear I have came true - my R1T does not fit in my garage. This is an issue in the winter where I cant leave the Rivian hanging out the garage door...
