  1. How to charge at home without a charger

    Yeah, pick up a nice 10 or 12 gauge cord to reduce the voltage drop. I keep a 75ft 10awg marine grade in my frunk for whenever I need it. https://amzn.to/3RmGih0
  2. RAN Rivian Charging Stations Locations Map via Google Maps

    Thrilled to see one in Mass! But we desperately need charging in northern new england where there are no CCS fast chargers in most of maine and northern NH where all the great dirt roads and camp sites are
  3. How to charge at home without a charger

    You have a charger. It's built in to your truck. All you're debating is what connects AC to your truck so it can charge. Sure, bigger plugs and circuits are faster, but if you really don't drive much, plenty are just fine just using a normal 120v plug. Just realize if you were to go on a long...
  4. R1T / R1S Factory XPEL PPF Option to be offered at $4500 starting late 2022

    I probably would go with factory PPF for convenience if it was offered. But as we all know paint from the factory is far from perfect, and and aftermarket PPF install will usually do full paint correction before covering in PPF, so that might still be preferred.
  5. RED CANYON Rivian Photos

    You guys need to stop making me regret not getting red canyon! :D
  6. R1 Teardown

    Remember the bed compressor was to be an add-on option. And you can hear the little thing run when you use it. It has absolutely nothing to do with the suspension compression. And from the label you can see the suspension system is also 10x the pressure.
  7. Mounting a cell phone. Has anyone done it?

    Just to update, I am still super thrilled with my Peak mount and the perfect location right in view. The top dash loosened up a bit which caused it to sag, and that was solved by adding a piece of VHB to the top of the mount in addition to the VHB on the bottom, so that everything stays stuck...
  8. Will I be the only Rivian in New England?

    My parents are becoming excellent Rivian spotters, in addition to the silver R1T in Guilford a few days ago, they just spotted a white one parked on green hill in Madison. I guess CT is doing well with deliveries!
  9. Will I be the only Rivian in New England?

    Rivian DOES qualify as it is a truck with over 8000lbs GVWR. Several of us have now been approved for a $7500 check https://mor-ev.org/mor-ev-trucks
  10. Will I be the only Rivian in New England?

    I got approved for MORE-EV yesterday too, I get the feeling with their lack of responses someone finally decided to clear out their inbox and approve us all at once. Anyone here with a silver R1T in CT? My parents excitedly told me they spotted one in Guilford today.
  11. Will I be the only Rivian in New England?

    Super helpful, thanks. For reference, their valuation is $71500. It's supposed to be on the base price of the vehicle. When I got my Model 3, I was taxed for nearly the full price, even though things like primium and autopilot were add ons at the time. I was able to submit the moroney sticker...
  12. Will I be the only Rivian in New England?

    Rivian handled all the RMV registering for me, in two days from finishing the 8 steps, I was impressed. But I just got my excise bill from the city, $1100. Ouch. They wasted no time. And I just paid them for the tesla I traded. Shouldn't it be prorated?
  13. Will I be the only Rivian in New England?

    Yeah after getting the VT house and needing to drive up a steep curvy icy road every week and then down unplowed rutty dirt road, I rushed to get chains for my Model 3, because I was worried my brand new Hakkapellitas were still not enough. The Nokians definitely saved me many times but I never...
  14. Will I be the only Rivian in New England?

    Nope, neither were me! Yesterday I drove back from CT 84 to 90 to 93. Today usual commute into boston on 93. I'm absolutely slammed with work and moving house and stuff, but hopefully we can all get together later this summer.
  15. MA - $7,500 MOR-EV Truck Incentive

    I've been working on it for over a month now. They seem to email back every two weeks asking for another document. Seems very manual unlike the more typical MORE-EV program. I still haven't seen actual confirmation that it is approved, and I won't believe it till I have a check in my hands...
  16. PPF Affordable DIY from TWRAPS

    I just ordered TVwraps from amazon for headlights and front bumper (sorry didn't see this thread till now) Can't beat the price. I've done this for previous cars where I worry the headlights will get pitted and lose clarity. I report back when I install, which might be a while before I have a...
  17. R1 Teardown

    So there is just a bunch of unused space where the glovebox could be. The ICE computer is much deeper on the frunk side of the beam.
  18. Mounting a cell phone. Has anyone done it?

    Yes, I'm sure it would slip out without it
  19. Petition to move the Chelsea service center to Vermont

    By the response I get, I am impressed Vermonters already know so much about the truck, perhaps it can displace Subaru as the official vehicle.
  20. Will I be the only Rivian in New England?

    All evidence I see continues to solidify the theory that if you reach out to rivian and ask them to note on your account that you are flexible in configuration and delivery location, you get a solid extra chance of getting a truck early. And I think the standard 21" wheels are a good bump as...
