You’re really that easily offended?

You have found NACS charging cables difficult to maneuver?

CCS will gradually completely disappear. In the meantime you can get a NACS to CCS adapter when Rivian goes to NACS if you want, but putting a dying tech in a new car would only alienate potential customers.

Of course they’re not adding CarPlay - Rivian wants to monetize their infotainment system not allow you to use the free one on your phone

Not a fan of a bunch of nuclear plants in a place projected to be in economic decline that may look to cutting costs on upkeep down the road.

I had a vehicle with monochromatic roof. I never used it. The other would be just if you value HP or Range more.

not everyone, but the majority agree it’s a subpar sound system. Perhaps the R1T is better since it’s has much less room to fill with sound? (I have no experience with it); the R1S isn’t great though.

Anyone blow the horn yet?

If you give him a doll, he’ll show you where the Tesla touched him. That’s the only explanation for the obsession.

I’m confident they reduced costs. I’m not confident demand is going to be there for the vehicles at the numbers Rivian needs.

If you have a gen 1 it shouldn’t be enough to make you want to change. If you don’t have a gen 1, it’s enough to steer the purchase choice clearly to gen 2.

Any word on bidirectional charging?

your analysis looks pretty spot on. Some will argue they want the extra HP, but that’s pretty unnecessary. Quad might do a bit better if you are off roading or driving in snow a lot.

it’s moderately cold in many parts of the country a significant amount of the year

Both look great. Here’s hoping the unseen changes are a nice step up

Problem is they have yet to have one of those good ones

I’d say this changes proportionally to how expensive the vehicle is

Refresh isn’t months away; they don’t have enough inventory to wait that long. I bet we see them for sale in June. I’d also be very surprised if it got the R2 wheel as part of this refresh.

I’d be more disappointed if he told you he would choose the pre-refresh. We need the company to succeed & that doesn’t happen if they are not improving/selling more vehicles

Some of these choices are not boding well to do anything to increase demand which is desperately needed at the moment. Really hope some of the unseen changes are more attractive.
