  1. IIHS Updated Crash Test Rating of Rivian R1T (w/ Video)

    Your comment makes my point for me perfectly. btw: "a little bit short" is like being "kinda pregnant". A little bit short means that your head has hit the C Pillar. The Model X is an example of a side curtain where your head does not hit the C Pillar. I find the comparison on that basic...
  2. 2 Big Requests to Rivian for future Update (that should be easy)

    Well, I can't speak for anyone else. But, just shy of 40 years ago, I was pulling and backing an intermediate range nuclear weapon through the tight streets and forests of Germany and never had to do any of that to pull and back a nuke safely through some really tight spaces.
  3. IIHS Updated Crash Test Rating of Rivian R1T (w/ Video)

    Contrast that picture with the Model X Side Curtain. The Model X Curtain extends well past the seat.
  4. IIHS Updated Crash Test Rating of Rivian R1T (w/ Video)

    It is really surprising how large the gap is between the headrest in the rear seat and the start of the side curtain air bag. Looking at the photo, it is not surprising that the rear passenger's head would impact the C pillar. I must say that I am disappointed.
  5. Best Floor Jack?

    Thanks. I have that document. The question came from the suggestion to use one jack and a jack stand. If the jack is using the puck, what is the approved location for the jack stand. Unfortunately, the tire service guide does not provide the answer.

    Credits for New Clean Vehicles Purchased in 2023 or After | Internal Revenue Service (irs.gov) It is not a good sign that the rules for 2023 and beyond make no mention of a binding contract entered into prior to Aug 2022.
  10. No tax credit for customers with binding contracts.

    I did not receive anything that I believe would be a document matching this requirement. Did anyone else. Do we know if Rivian is sending the information to the IRS? I don't recall giving my SSN to Rivian. I picked up at the factory in January. "The sale qualifies only if: The seller...

    If I understand correctly, you want the car to keep driving if you are not in the seat, seat belt is off and the door is open. Nothing could go wrong there.

    Is that an R1S version on the pallet? Are you close to shipping these as well?
  15. 30A 125V twist lock charging experience

    His question was whether 240V would harm the truck. I don't believe the wiring to the outlet is the problem in any case. The wiring the outlet are likely just fine. The problem is when you use a 3rd party adapter, the truck does not know the correct amperage and wants to set a value that will...

    The truck is made to handle 240V at up to 48 amps. So, no damage from this power level.
