  1. First problem with my R1S, and it's a big one. Bolt backed out

    Guessing this is on the Driver side of the R1. As wheel rolls forward, the interferance wiht the CV boot is causing the screw to back out further. I would not drive it further without tightening the bolt, and if possible getting service.
  2. Charging Habits and Battery Health

    This explanation makes the most sense and is engineering/science based. What a group of people generally do, should have no weight. Lots of crowds have destructive practices. My big takeaway from this video is that charging to 100% or depleting to zero (even for a minute) does a little bit of...
  3. Difficulty charging with the 120 portable charger

    If the GFCI is tripping, you are not on a non-GFCI outlet. Outlets without the buttons are still GFCI protected if they are on the same circuit. You may see this in bathrooms, as an example. There is GFCI protection in the charger and, as some have said, 2 GFCI systems sometimes don't play well...
  4. RJ's confidence the past few days

    I see that you created your new profile here on this forum yesterday. Most members sit back and read and learn for a bit. Then, the posts are related to the vehicle performance... how much they love it or what issues they have... or what concerns them about buying one. This implies to me that...
  5. BMW: EV’s are Dead, buy Hydrogen Fuel Cells Vehicles

    I guess that makes sense. Gas is already cracked down and re-assembled to other chemicals.
  6. BMW: EV’s are Dead, buy Hydrogen Fuel Cells Vehicles

    I don’t believe you drill for hydrogen. Rather, made via electrolysis.
  7. 20" Michelin Defender LTX Platinum Tires review -- For all of you thinking about a 20" tire! Your wait is over!

    So, based on that equation and a new tire load index of 126, the pressure at which the tire can take the same maxload as the 116 rated tire would be 59 psi. New psi=80*2756/3748 what is your reference for this formula? Do we know that there is a linear relationship between tire pressure and...
  8. 20" Michelin Defender LTX Platinum Tires review -- For all of you thinking about a 20" tire! Your wait is over!

    What pressure are folks running on these Platinum tires? I got mine put on and Discount tire inflated to 50psi. I wonder if we can go higher to get even lower rolling resistance...
  9. DIY mod - Adding hidden tailgate step ladder on R1T

    I was a long-time Ridgeline owner too (17 yrs), loved the trunk and now use my R1T spare space as a trunk too. Lots of tools stored there and an electric chainsaw in the gear tunnel. A swing-out tailgate would be wonderful.
  10. DIY mod - Adding hidden tailgate step ladder on R1T

    cool idea. you might want to add a reinforcement up under the corner, in the area you cut away the tailgate, so it doesn't bend when you step on it. Looking forward to more progress posts!
  11. Automatic Reverse Mirror Tilt workaround using driver profiles

    Cameras don’t show as well as mirror, especially with certain sun angles and glare.
  12. 20" Michelin Defender LTX Platinum Tires review -- For all of you thinking about a 20" tire! Your wait is over!

    I bought the OEM size of this tire, LT275 /65 R20 126S E1 BSW on 11/11/23 at Discount Tire online site, so they are available. I was having a wheel repaired due to curb rash :( before putting the tires on so won't get the new shoes until Friday. Thanks for the review. I can't wait to see how...
  13. What's the best wheel size for range and tire longevity?

    I suppose there could be a range difference but not sure it will be a reduction. The tires are heavier by 11#(per Tire Rack site). Do you know that weight will impact range? it is not even mentioned as a factor in the video posted above by ChiefBushWookie. I’d like to see a calculation on the...
  14. What's the best wheel size for range and tire longevity?

    I’ve got 28k miles on my R1T on the 20” AT tires. I got them because I liked the look and they have been great. I considered replacing with the same Pirelli but as there is no mileage warranty and they do wear faster than I would like, I did some looking and there are a lot of options. Some...
  15. Exciting first look @ Rivian Lift System by DCE / Weistec!!

    thanks. That is cool, but I just want an off-road trailer to haul a 4-wheeler. Is there an option for that?
  16. Exciting first look @ Rivian Lift System by DCE / Weistec!!

    Looks nice. What trailer is that? I'm looking for an off-road trailer to haul a 4 wheeler.
  17. Purchase with Rivian finance and then refinance?

    Not true. I refinanced a loan with Navy Federal and got it at a new rate.
  18. Does your power tonneau cover still work

    Still working after 26k miles and 16 months. I nervously use it 3-4 times a week. It popped and banged a couple times on day 1, but then calmed down. Interesting that responses as if this post show 90% working. Based on all the FB and forum posts, I thought I was special.
  19. Rivian Ruins My Uber Rider Rating

    And your Panamera is also not rated to wade thru 3' of water, among other features! The R1 even beats it in 0-60 and has a lot more utility and storage.... come to think of it, not sure why you would still have one of those.... :)
