Below is another source that seems legit with some interesting stats. I do agree with only one thing the former Ford CEO said, and that is getting used to instant torque. I think it's pretty easy to master for most people, but maybe an even less aggressive initial throttle mapping wouldn't be a...

I guess Ohio has some perks (if you drive ICE), but electricity is less than 10c. I also have solar panels, but don't have excess, at least not in the winter.

I don't disagree with most anything you said, other than $5 gas - it think it has been closer to $3 in most of the country. And, 75' is beyond luxury here - it just would not feel right when with wind chills way into the negative. Totally agree that in the grand scheme of things, a quarter to...

You set the departure time, not a preheat time period. If find that I can set a fictious departure time that is at least 15 minutes later than my actual departure time and the cabin is already at 68 (parked in a 33' garage) and the battery warm enough to return 2m/kWh near zero outside temp...

Sorry if I rain on the parade, but consider that when taking the energy for pre-conditioning into account, things don't look so good anymore. In my case, with outside temp near zero, my garage is near freezing (33' right now). I have a 5 mile drive to work, and while I also get about 2 m/kWh...

I had cabin precondition scheduled for the exact same 1/2 hr time slot as charging this morning. The result was that the cabin was warm and no charging session had been recorded.

I have never noticed any motor overheating with DM-P (Max) setup. (I am not sure Max battery chemistry requires a different temperature window). I usually also use 1/2 hr scheduled charging before I leave, because I believe it puts some temp in the battery (but have no good data to back that...

Funny you see it. Instead of a surprised face with jaw dropped, I was going for a satisfied smirk.

Thanks - I guess low ride means rubbing? I trying to find some wheel/tire combo that maintains low ride height.

Thanks for putting that picture in my head - that helps! From here on out I shall think of it as Daffy Duck with a mustache.

I think they both look good. With the decal I think it looks a bit more rugged, without it's a more understated. Maybe that'll help you decide. BTW, what wheels are you running - looks a bit more offset than OEM.

I am no expert but reading the IRS text, I think if even if delivery was after April 17, and it is a company vehicle, you should be able to get the full 7500 credit for your business taxes. I am in that situation and would appreciate any qualified input.

Here is another, less radical idea. I couldn't look at my front for more than two seconds without getting croos-eyed. It now takes 10 seconds, enough to get around the truck and enjoy the rest of the exterior.

I like it. Here's another, less radical idea. I couldn't look at my front end without getting cross-eyed within 2 seconds. It now takes 10 seconds - enough to get around the truck and enjoy the rest of the exterior.

Good news, QS stock jumped almost 50% today. This means I'm only down 90% from when I bought it!

You are making my point. Does anybody care if my A/C pressure line is AOK at 2am? Or that the Lidar sensor is heated? An option to turn all this off on a schedule would be useful. Call it night or weekend mode. I am sure there would be a way to wake the vehicle remotely/temporarily with the...

Here is another data point: R1T in garage for 10 days, temperature varied between 55 and 45. But, that didn't seem to matter much. I put it in shipping and service mode for the entire time. I first figured I wouldn't be able to see any stats on the phone app, but I was wrong! I was still able to...

https://www.motortrend.com/news/rivian-loss-per-vehicle/ I think these losses should be a lot less after their plant upgrade in 2024 but they need to start turning a profit within a year or so, or they'll go kaputt. I think most PDM shoppers will go for DM, thinking they will upgrade later. It...
