I honestly can't even tell. Do you have a tread depth gauge? That would be the tool to tell you exactly what your tire wear is.
Also, would the SC do an alignment under warranty if you asked? If not, you could just go to any tire shop and get an alignment done? Might be cheaper than way...
I don't believe Lectron products are UL listed because they are Chinese? I was doing research on them at one point, learned that, and will stay away from all their products for your exact issue. Crazy how they are so popular though even though they are kinda unsafe because of the sans UL...
No reason to go specifically with the Rivian wall charger. It's just a wall charger that's hooked up to wifi. Any charger will do. I'm not up to tune on if the app can control charging, but if it can, then it doubly doesn't matter which one since you could tell the car to charge from the app...
One thing that never gets mentioned with melting outlets, is most of the time, that happens from electricians who put in a cheap $10 dryer outlets. They aren't rated to really be able to handle 40a of constant draw for hours. Someone else mentioned keeping it plugged in and not...
You may want to look into that Lectron charger more. I've seen reviews and things mentioning they aren't UL listed products since they are Chinese. I specifically didn't get this brand because of this and it seemed like safety could be an issue.
14-50 for sure. There's no neutral in the 6-50. If you're putting in a brand new circuit, I'd get the "proper" one and do the 14-50 with all the wires. Home charger like the Grizzly would work awesome with the car. My parents have this charger for their Ioniq 5 and it works great. Super...
You may want to try looking in your account. Also have an R1S on order and have a first mile drive scheduled for the end of April at the SJ hub (closer than SSF to me). There's an icon you can click on the left side and you can schedule your own test drive. I'm under the impression mine will...
Man that is some serious space. This is going to be perfect for us with our 2 dogs when we go on camping trips and whatnot. Now if Rivian would just let me have mine already lol
Eh, it's fine. Nobody is offering an actual SUV sized vehicle like the R1S. EV9/Ioniq 7 coming, but not here yet. The crossover market is kinda already getting saturated, so when Rivian is ready, they can jump into that one. I would rather them focus on the untapped market the R1S is taking...
Had the same question. My only guess is because he signed the BPA, that that date is when you "took" delivery of the car, not physically when you get the car since you're using the old fed credit. I suppose you should probably take delivery first, but maybe they didn't want to do an amended...
It honestly depends how you drive. Everyone will give you different mileage ranges, but these are all general. It even depends what kind of tires you have. Sport tires, definitely going to want to rotate those more often. Maybe 3k miles. The more often you rotate, the longer the tires will...
This is one of those things I learned very early on with our first Tesla. Yes, phone keys are great. But technology is great when it works, super crappy when it doesn't. So I've always carried the key card in my wallet as well, just in case something like this happens.
Could be? All depends on how far the charger is from your panel. If it's really close, around $500. And it can go up from there. Honestly, any licensed electrician can do this for you. Going with whoever Rivian recommends is just a money grab for those companies TBH.
Here's how I do our Model 3/Y, and will be doing the same if our R1S ever comes. I'm not into having a million different products, so very minimal on that front. But it works for me and keeps the cars looking nice.
More than likely, someone with your config cancelled their order and you were next in line and probably in the same area. Nice to know you're in the Bay, maybe I'll get mine sooner too lol. We actually live super close, so I'll be on the lookout for your white R1S :D.
This same thing happened...
Sounds like you have to departure charge manually? I don't have our R1S yet, so I don't know everything about the app. I'm sure they will add this like Tesla in the future. That as well as the feature that brakes for you when you have regen limited to smooth it out. Pretty nice feature and I...
I'm assuming you have level 2 charging at the cabin to refill? If that's the case, charge it to 100% so you can make it and don't worry about it. Best strategy though is to departure charge to 100% right before you're ready to leave. That way the car doesn't sit at 100% for very long. This...
