  1. ⚡️ Rivian announces: March Tesla Supercharger access & free NACS adapters!

    Kind of an overstatment. GM only leased (the limited number they produced) the EV1, and then refused to sell them at the end of the lease. And then GM killed the program.
  2. ⚡️ Rivian announces: March Tesla Supercharger access & free NACS adapters!

    Sedona (Village of Oak Creek) and Phoenix (Biltmore Fashion Park) - no pull-through chargers.
  3. Traded in my R1T for an F150 Lightning

    Yeah, once you've committed to a specific vehicle, I think it becomes entirely non-refundable at that point. In my case, I was given a second chance to back out, because the power tonneau cover quit working after it got to the local SC, but before I picked it up. I did complete the purchase...
  4. Traded in my R1T for an F150 Lightning

    Ah, I see. Once you have confirmed and they have (presumably) started building it, the deposit converts to nonrefundable.
  5. Traded in my R1T for an F150 Lightning

    I think that $900 of that $1000 *is* refundable.
  6. Now Available: 2024.07.02 Software Update: Tesla Supercharger Access Coming Soon, Navigation Improvements, Room Entry And Exit Enhancements & More

    Rivian should have hired you to write all the code; although they might not have been able to afford someone of your caliber.

    State 48 Rivians

    No, it came with a free portable charger, but not a free Level 2 {home) charger. The Level 2 charger is an extra cost accessory you can buy from Rivian (or many other companies). If someone actually received a free Level 2 charger, it might have been a special circumstance where it was comped in...
  8. Now they tell us!

    Even 300 series can be somewhat magnetic where it has been worked. "By using a thermal process or work hardening (e.g. bending, drilling, etc) austenitic stainless steels can be partially magnetic, forming ferrite in some areas. As a result, austenitic grades exhibit a slight magnetism at...
  9. Are Rivians being built with NACS plugs yet? Any NACS adapter plug recommendations?

    I'm pretty sure that Rivian won't be building autos with NACS preinstalled until after the the arrangement with Tesla becomes fully implemented. My recollection is that preinstalled NACS (in Rivians) is supposed to happen in 2025 (or with the 2025 model year). Some time this year, current...
  10. Credit card with cashback bonus for EV charging?

    I'll look into that, and use your referral code if I do.
  11. Am I missing something... are people uneducated about EVs and won over by free charging?

    Well, there are some reasons, beyond the "mentality." Costco gas lines do move fairly quickly. Costco pumps usually work. Costco checks all of their pumps hourly to be sure no one has slipped a credit card skimmer on it. And Costco gas is also Top Tier gasoline, so it's probably better than...
  12. Credit card with cashback bonus for EV charging?

    I, too, wouldn't choose to open an account with Wells Fargo. Wells Fargo has been caught multiple times, over the last few years, doing some pretty shady things. Opening fraudulent accounts for customers who didn't request it, for one. Here's a link (but you can search for "wells fargo illegal...
  13. Range Loss in Extreme cold temperatures … Great Job, Rivian!

    Except that your original post said, "...my truck’s been parked out in the heavy snow for the past 2 days getting absolutely dumped on. I haven’t seen 1% even of range loss." To my understanding, that is describing minimal "phantom drain." Perhaps I am misunderstanding the point you are trying...
  14. Consumer Reports 10 Most Satisfying Cars and SUVs for 2023 -- R1T & R1S Both Make List

    My guess is that it relates to the delayed or inconsistent "auto-presenting handles" - which is a lot better now, with recent OTAs.
  15. Consumer Reports 10 Most Satisfying Cars and SUVs for 2023 -- R1T & R1S Both Make List

    I don't know what you mean, here. Heated seat control is always on the screen, so it only takes one press to turn it on high.
  16. Rivian now selling wiper blades

    No, you're right - there haven't been 10 rainy days in the ten plus months I've owned it. But the sun can be hard on wiper blades. And they still work as well, I'd say, as they did initially... I think better than whatever wiper blades I've purchased from Costco or other stores for my previous...
