  1. 50 Miles of Extra Range For $10,000?

    This is our southern utah/northern AZ playground and why I still have a maxpack reservation. This is showing CCS chargers available above 70kw (there are a few 50 kw chargers on the east but given the distances, those aren’t ideal). It gets a bit better if Tesla opens their superchargers...
  2. Efficiency secrets?

    I am not sure how big a difference this makes but I do pretty well relative to estimated efficiency (on our Tesla model S, i3, and R1T) by easing into regen and throttle. I almost never use the brake pedal and rarely use max regen assuming that there is more loss @ higher inputs. I am probably...
  3. Wind Noise

    the funny thing is I didn’t hear it at first but then they replaced some window/door seals that weren’t seated well and the noise started. I will go back but want to try to pin point the noise so they can deal with it vs pass the buck.
  4. Wind Noise

    I brought our truck into service and they said it is normal and all trucks have it (above 60mph driverā€˜s side). I’ve experimented with covering with electrical tape some of the gaps on the Triangle window (upper and lower) and the seams on the mirror and it seems to reduce but not completely...
  5. Has anyone in St. George area gotten a R1T?

    yep = we have had our truck for a few months. Congrats. we love ours
  6. Cybertruck reveals new triangle mirrors (removable) in Palo Alto sighting ?? (video)

    To each his own but boy that vehicle is gag inducing for me. I am sure we will see a bunch on the road over the next few years - sigh.
  7. Two small, low priority sw requests

    Lots of bigger needs but two minor annoyances 1) the floating Spotify now playing panel ison far right of screen so makes it hard to heart fav songs 2) don’t remove overheadcamera view when you close the garage door. We have a tight path out of garage and use the overhead view when backing. If...
  8. Share Your Vehicle Name Here

    Starchaser. Love camping under the stars in Utah and the truck will get us to new spots.
  9. 0°F Commute Efficiency

    ouch. I found this blog post interesting about the multiple ways that cold temperatures impact car efficiency including non EVs. http://alohonyai.blogspot.com/2014/11/effects-of-winter-on-fuel-economy.html
  10. Rivian Adventure Network Charging Stations Map Updated - Coming Soon Locations

    Bummer - looks like our Southern Utah adventures are going to continue to be a challenge for a while.
  11. The state of the CCS charging network in USA is disappointing

    I can’t believe how bad the St. George/Washington EA chargers are. Broken, slow and hard to park to reach the cables. Fortunately I live here so can charge @ home but for others that are travelling to Zion or through UT - avoid if you can!
  12. The cold weather camping experiement.

    thank you for passing along your experience. Looking forward to our first outing in a couple of weeks.
  13. Moab Trip in Two Weeks, Charging Options Look…Dismal

    I just got a message back from Rocky mountain power and here is what they said. ā€œWe do know that the equipment has been ordered but there is no timeline place as of right now. We are dedicated to making sure all of your concerns are heard and addressed. Please know your feedback regarding the...
  14. Moab Trip in Two Weeks, Charging Options Look…Dismal

    I just tweeted to RJ to see if he can help with RAN priorities. Also sent a note to Rocky Mountain power since I am a customer.
  15. Oct-Dec 2022 Delivery Windows

    we are at the same stage and was told that our truck is complete in Normal and would be a few weeks due to them transporting the truck by rail and pickup in Las Vegas. Not sure if rail transport will be used for AZ as well. Timing works for us as we are heading for a 16 day grand canyon rafting...
  16. LA SILVER Rivian Photos

    I love the shine of paint - particularly LA silver. I guess I am once again ā€œnot fashionableā€ since everyone seems to like these flat paints or stealth wraps. I like the reward to sparkling clean after a hand wash.
  17. First 7 Days: a Lot of Good & Not So Good + Questions on potential issues

    I am also a Tesla model S owner and soon to be first time truck owner so I appreciate your perspective. We just picked one of the trucks from the Rivian shop so hopefully will get it in a few weeks. Enjoy your new ride.
