@Jivian , first of all, thank you so much for sharing your thoughts and math. Wow - I couldn't have ask for a better helpful thread with where I am. I have a delivery of a Gen2 R1T Dual Max Blue next week, and need to close on the options. I am also considering option#4, and was looking for any...

thank you - good to know. Anyone knows a good online lease tool to be able to calculate rent/interest? I want to know what my total 3yr interest payment will be. Thx.

Appreciate any pointers on a website/calculator for auto lease - where I can reverse-engineer to get to the rent (interest amount) from other data I have. Edmunds came close but didn’t get me the breakdown of the monthly (principal, and rent/interest). Rivian delivery guy didn’t have that split...

Great datâ points, thank you! I have seen little value in waiting beyond 80% charge in any superchargers (the time to wait from 80-90+ is far worse than stopping at another SC a little bit earlier and charging again to 80%). with bigger batteries, I think Rivian (140kwh) and the likes of GM...

I am about to make a purchase on a Gen2 R1T and Let me give you some reasons why I am going with them for a truck (and would be happy to be educated if there are better options): * a 400Mile+ range truck (after 8yrs with EVs, I have learnt to appreciate range is the biggest thing & worth paying...

I only have my own experiences to share when I talk about Tesla's autopilot... I am always educating myself. LiDAR systems require HD mapping (done previously) to enable Level3 driving - also acknowledged by Benz. The two groups with differing philosophies: 1. limited # of cities & roadways...

Moon shot (“only vision is enough)…not sure we can say it was faulty, at least yet. And also, if autonomous driving has to be ubiquitous - ie even a sub-30K car must have it to make the road safe for all - then the logic to remove cost is a good one. While it benefits the drivers thar can...

not sure I am able to imagine...if there were 2 EV companies (could have been Rivian - founded in 2009 so could have/would have done similar progress by 2018 perhaps?) that had comparable innovations - that would have been really awesome to see how they outcompete with each other...Tesla has...

Owner of 3 teslas here, and hoping to get into a R1T soon. As young car companies, I have seen Teslas improve over time from 2016 - my first ModelS to 2022 MY and a 2018 M3 in between. If I wanted to compare their $50K-90K car with an equivalent Japanese or German car - then I would have been...

Thoughts from a 8yr Tesla owner (MS-sold, M3 & MY currently), that is buying a R1T very soon: * Everyone agrees NACS is the better design (if higher charge rates can be delivered on a smaller port with better thermal mgmt, kudos to those engineers. Too many cooks made CCS this big. It had to...

Very helpful thread - as I am currently looking at buying a truck and nothing compares better than R1T for what I want. Great product. Hopefully I will make a decision soon (used Gen1 vs Gen2). Staying on the topic on this thread, I would like to share some experience. I bought the Tesla Model...

Thank you OP and the follow ups - this is quite useful as I am considering getting a R1T to expand my dirt-bike (KTM350) riding range to more BDR and other trails - and take a friend or son along (2 bikes). Looks like the KTMs stand out quite farther up than the roof of the R1T. What do you...
