  1. Cybertruck. The beauty isn’t even skin deep.

    The parts that are heated red hot are actually from boron steel. This is a hardenable steel and gets its final strength in a water cooled stamping die. That's how the door ring is made. The inner of the door is cold stamped light gauge SS. If SS gets heated to a glow in air it would turn black...
  2. Automatic Reverse Mirror Tilt workaround using driver profiles

    My BMW has a small slider switch on the door armrest near the mirror controls where you cane disable/enable the mirror tilt function.
  3. Software Update 2023.50 -- Scheduled battery preconditioning & other useful improvements!

    I also thought that during fall weather, it was blowing cold air at my feet even with the heat on and I believe I also had the 72' cliff. Maybe that was mostly on sunny days and sun was hitting a temperature sensor? It seems that ever since the weather turned cold, I can leave everything in auto...
  4. Aftermarket wheels efficiency

    FWIW, we had the first decent snow and I was SHOCKED by the traction in what I call soapy snow. I floored the thing and I swear, I could barely tell a difference compared to wet conditions we had earlier in the day. I am on 21 original street tires and only have about 2,000miles on them, but...
  5. R1T phantom drain and possible work around

    I trying camping mode for first time tonight to see if that minimizes phantom drain. Camping mode seems to power the truck down immediately.
  6. Can you get steel rims for winter tires?

    Cardiac, what size tire is it and can you run these at low height?
  7. Winter Tires: Nokian Hakkapeliitta LT 275/65 R 20 126/123Q ordered. Experience / reviews?

    Has anybody found 20" rims? I spent hours looking online, the combination of 5x5.5" bolt pattern and ET >25mm is impossible to find. Seems like Tire rack is the only game in town, but they are out of stock.
  8. Winter Tires: Nokian Hakkapeliitta LT 275/65 R 20 126/123Q ordered. Experience / reviews?

    Thanks, that's exactly what I needed to know. Was getting ready to order +18 from tire rack, where they list this combination for the R1T. Would have loved to improve stance a bit with +18...
  9. Winter Tires: Nokian Hakkapeliitta LT 275/65 R 20 126/123Q ordered. Experience / reviews?

    @sly177: Did you install these yet? I am thinking of getting the same set, but am concerned about any clearance issues (calipers, low ride height, etc)
  10. Rivian Max Pack EPA Data (document shows 141-142 kWh usable battery)

    FWIW, I recently got 359 + 2 remaining miles on a real road trip, mostly highway, mostly well over the speed limit. At the speed limit I think I would have come close to 410 miles. I don't know how they do it but it's real. I don't really care how large or small the battery is as long as the...
  11. Painted / Colored Key Fob Buttons... so simple, HUGE difference. RJ take notes pls.

    Love the truck, but some items are plainly annoying and this is one of them. With the "only lock at home" feature (which I totally appreciate), the fob is back in play. Rivian should have just copied evolved designs instead "Ri-invant". A BMW fob has a learning curve of one minute instead of a...
  12. Real world dual-motor and max-pack reviews missing?

    Only one way to find out. I might just load up my portable generator and drive around the neighborhood when I'm down to fumes next time around. Not sure what this would prove - it's not applicable in the real world...
  13. Real world dual-motor and max-pack reviews missing?

    I was very impressed with the range on a trip to the Pittsburgh area. It was roughly 70% highway, the rest mostly overland with very little city and I was practically always aiming for 5 to 10mph over the speed limit, except for the last 100 miles of highway where I stuck to the speed limit...
  14. 90 mile Max Pack test drive - efficiency results at 69 mph

    edited original post, had a math error and trip was "only" 359 miles. Still pretty good
