Doing better than Lucid: https://eletric-vehicles.com/lucid/lucids-hiring-plunges-76-amid-operational-streamlining-under-new-ceo/ Who also just lost the mastermind behind their designs.

Took another test drive this morning for about thirty minutes. Last time was on the 20's, this time on the 21's. Drove over some of the same stretches of rough pavement and tried the various ride settings. As expected, the 21's do ride a little stiffer and transfer more of the bumps and ruts...

Yes- correct. Dunno what I was thinking when I typed that.

Not necessarily. Metallic coatings on the surface often reduce reflectivity or aid in passthrough reduction. In some auto glass with true IR reduction, it's in one of the laminated interlayers. Dunno what the reality is with the R2 roof, but I haven't seen it it explicitly claimed to reduce IR.

Not true - I rode in the back while the wife drove and they didn't bother me (6'2").

If you can find that I'd like to know. The reps at the Rivian Space couldn't figure it out. @RivianTrackr- Jose, any ideas? I know you fiddled with the HVAC some.

Interesting. FWIW I’m 6’2” and found the seats very comfy.

Different bolt pattern.
