Sounds fun :)

It is an Alpicool C20. The target temp is 37 in "max mode", but even under normal conditions it doesn't hold tight to that and spends most of its time between 33 and 35. The spike is interesting as it did it again this morning coinciding to when I drove it. I plan on putting an energy monitor on...

Mine was pretty much spot on for my avg. efficiency and miles ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

We've had some high temperatures the past few days and I wanted to see how my powered cooler performed in an enclosed space in hot weather. I plugged the cooler into the 110 AC outlet in the gear tunnel to ensure it was constantly powered. Below are 2 graphs. The top one is the temperature...

ODOT had a webinar this morning about the NEVI program. A lot of the Q&A answers were somewhat vague, but a couple things I learned: Faulty charging units are expected to be addressed within 48 hours of the reported problem. Pull through stations for towing vehicles are part of the plan for...

That is the exact unit that I have been using camping with the R1T along with a Duxtop induction stove. Only complaint so far is that it emits a loud warning tone when opening it when the interior is hot.

Our PUD NW of Portland is $0.0719 per kWh 24/7.

It's been kind of rough. They said that they got the fees squared away the day after I contacted them about the letter and said they were waiting on an estimate on when the plates would arrive. Crickets for 6 days so I reached out again and they said the plates had already been mailed. I let...

Mine expired yesterday :(

My guide said they got the rest of the fees submitted the end of last week. The DMV portal still doesn't show the R1T yet for me. Pretty sure I won't have the plates when my permit expires in 2 days.

Speaking of auto high beams, it is odd that there are 2 places to configure it: Driver+ and the exterior lights vehicle sub-menus.

I have VIN 13xx at ~4,500 miles and it has been rock solid.

In retrospect I should have done more comparative testing (didn't even use general All-Terrain mode). Just driving straight over sand didn't really feel different between sand and all-purpose mode. Sand mode will happily let you dig your wheels down into a hole if given enough acceleration. It...

I also compared the new R1S manual to the previous one and didn't see anything R1S specific updated. I did miss a change: There are now 3 places in the document that indicate to "Only use Rivian-supplied paint protective film (PPF)." These are in the context of keeping sensors clear though I'm...

New version of the R1T manual: May 23, 2022 (software version: 2022.19.X) https://assets.rivian.com/2md5qhoeajym/530xs9hu11xOKefT2JrvA5/feb81551d04b8c9517dc722f5d4da00e/r1t-owners-guide-en-us-20220523.pdf Updates: Added text indicating that using the key card/band to unlock the door when the...

I finally got a communication from the DMV yesterday regarding the registration and title of my R1T. Unfortunately it was to let me know that they underpaid the fees by around $600. I assume Rivian got the same letter as I was indicated as a CC recipient. I sent a picture of it to my guide who...

The best efficiency that I remember seeing was 1 mi/kWh just driving on wet sand along the beach. One interesting thing I noticed was how much this trip affected my range estimate. After the trip, my estimated miles at 70% SOC in all purpose dropped by 11 miles. I'm not sure why they leverage...

Yeah, I just went with a simple solution of mounting a quick release holder to a hitch for a 5/16 " pole: I have a folding aerial bracket on order, but is taking a while for it to arrive. I can share that setup when I get it in place. I agree that mounting it towards the front is ideal for...

After only 2.5 months of ownership, my key fob battery required replacement. Maybe I just started with a poor battery and hopefully won't have to replace it every 2-3 months. Has anybody else needed to replace their factory fob battery?

I didn't use the general off road mode. I did use all purpose a bit which handled pretty well as far as traction control goes though with the stability on and higher regen it isn't a good fit for "spirited" use. I also played with drift mode which was fun and a very different dynamic from sand mode.
