We were in Tofino in July! Very cool.

22” sport bright. Look great!

After putting 55,000 trouble free and wonderful miles on my R1T Quad Motor I took the recent Rivian trade-in incentive to replace it with a Dual Motor Max Pack R1T. Why, you might ask given the deep discount the early reservation holders got? A few reasons; * I have never wished for more...

Gen 2 R1T dual max pack delivered October 15th with powered tonneau. Working great.

Mine Looks normal. On .35 based in Minnesota.

seems like the part of the continent I call home is missing out on that big Tesla expsnsion? map show superchargers that are under construction, permitted, planned. Once again the upper Midwest gets left out.

Yes, 2 motors instead of 4. But, I have never wished for more horsepower but I have wished for more range. Driving around Minnesota, Wisconsin, Canada, -20F, sparse DC charging options...... More range is high on my list of wants. A small LFP battery is a not an option for my use case.

If you can get into the “ride” menu within the service menu U think the instantaneous 12v voltage is there. I never found that too useful, it’s always changing as it discharges and charges. Cool they cashed you preemptively though.

Sadly, or actually it’s happily, I won’t be able to repeat at 66k. I’m trading in this Gen 1 R1T for a Gen 2 R1T max pack in a few days. Why? My Gen 1 has been awesome. It was inevitable I would replace it with another someday. With the recent trade in offer I figured this was as good a time...

I mostly charge at home to 70% and typically it does not get below 40%. seldom has it dropped under 15%. DC fast charged maybe 40 times on road trips. Very little exposure to hot weather (live in Minnesota, truck in a garage during the heat of the day most often)

Perspective. I have 27 large panels on my roof. The most power I can generate in during the longest day of the year is 40 kWH. That is about 1/3 of the Rivian battery capacity. A tonneau cover would be about 1 panel in size so the daily power output would be about 1/27 th that of my house...

ABRP shows a battery capacity of over 130 kWH. Pretty sure the capacity estimate is too high.

This is a follow-up to a post I did in May of 2024 when my R1T had 42,000 miles on it. https://www.rivianforums.com/forum/threads/test-result-battery-degradation-at-42-000-miles-just-3-degradation-2022-r1t-quad-motor.27821/#post-538633 I now have 54,000 miles on the R1T and I repeated the test...

The 50,000 mile degradation numbers make no sense at all. I carefully tested my at 42,000 miles and found about 2% to 3% degradation. I'm about to do another test at 54,000 miles and will post the results soon. That will be the last chance I get to do it on my current R1T. I'm trading it in...

Nice eye for detail! Thanks for the fresh perspective of the little things. This increased my opinion of the vehicle even more.

The trade in tool quoted ~$49,000 for my 53,000 mile R1T. caravana offer is $2000 less than Rivian’s.

55,000 miles on my R1T. Thinking……. Thinking hard.

I don’t know what ABRP says but I’ve tested the battery capacity myself. I did it at 42,000 miles and I’m about to do it again at 53,000 miles. I posted the findings here...

Yes. Depending on temperature and speed. On my rural road trip to my cabin I can get 350 miles of range at 54 mph average.

I never noticed that either. Thanks for pointing it out. My point with this post remains though, the supercharger networks is still expanding.
