Spent 2+hours on a response on an iPad and the forum puked. ?
The short answer is nuclearā¦itās the only option. Do a deep dive down the rabbit hole about nuclear and non-nuclear power generation.

This dialogue is dishearteningā¦and most people need one of these:
So much animosity & bigheadedness towards people without knowing their story or history. ?

This forum has significantly more drama than any forum Iāve joined over the past 25 years... and it negatively impacts the quality of the forum.
RIVN is nowhere near a pivotal point, other than theyāre hemorrhaging money at a slower rate than other EV companies...and they are likely years away...
i appreciate the insight despite the naysayers. Rivian appears to be a decent company and i wonāt comment on the c suite as Iām not knowledgeable.
sounds like the company failed on a significant level and nobody said anything until it started to affect production, which affected deliveries...
Excellent packaging and shipping - belts & suspenders & safety pins!! Other manufacturers would do well to copy their technique. ?
Straightforward install - the YouTube video is excellent.
Here are before and after pictures:
and one design change that will make install easier - the flange...
Bought a set in black for the r1t. The main reason was the stainless material. It would be nice if there was an aluminum version to further reduce weight. Hint-hint! ?
After watching this video from TyreReviews showing the Michelin defender ltx m/s performing better than 3-peak tires, Iāve changed my outlook about the importance of 3 peak -
Based upon TireRack testing of the Michelin defender ltx m/s (the m/s2 performs similarly to the m/s) and continental...
- more options (didnāt check to see if these are available in 275-60r20)
$316 each - https://www.discounttire.com/buy-tires/michelin-x-ice-snow/p/127460
Wouldnāt buy unless someone wants to hold for a few years, or can buy low/sell high throughout the year. There are stocks to make +25% far more quicklyā¦rinse and repeat to make more to ultimately invest in RIVN in 2026??? Unless you follow the stock closely enough to predict the +70% rise in...
Itās really disheartening to read this thread (and others) and see the caustic language and mentality of members who use disparaging names, belittle the beliefs of others, or question the experiences of people who survive a hurricane.
I thought this was a forum about Rivians?!?
Seems some...
The local SC stopped for a remote visit yesterday to drop off a fob +key card +trim pieces and the service tech also said heās performing a service on the hub bolts for each wheel.

2024 R1S dual motor with max battery on 275/50R22 ltx m/s2 tires & sport brights with running boards & cargo bars, three adults & one toddler, no cargo (front or rear)⦠on the CAT scale:
Front two wheels = 3640 lbs
Rear two wheels = 4120 lbs

where did you find the pressure (psi) vs. weight (lb)? Iāve tried finding 116/116xl inflation charts and they all stop at 36psi or 42psi - https://www.civicx.com/forum/attachments/tire-load-index-table-pdf.235774/ or https://www.toyotires.com/tires-101/tire-load-and-inflation-tables

Two questions:

For those considering the defender ltx m/s2 for snow country, TyreReviews shows that the original ltx m/s does better in snow than quite a few 3peak AT tires -
The updated ltx m/s2 should perform better.
