Summer for S’s? Even LE’s?

I have a five, seven, and ten year old. O/u set at 15 minutes from delivery

I don’t think you are accounting for the ~10% charging loss

Thank you for posting this. Easy decision to not risk investing in the IPO. May I ask your rough order number based on the logic that’s been widely accepted on the forum? Really disappointing

My apologies if already addressed elsewhere…i assume the ~$55 monthly subscription fee includes AT&T LTE correct? If you don’t subscribe can you then use a mobile hotspot? Do we assume basic functionality would be limited?

Crashmtb, I hope this comes to fruition for you, and for the entire preorder community for that matter (portends good things for US based customers) however, I would be shocked if any deliveries are made to Canada in 2021. Maybe they flip a switch and start ramping quickly, but nothing known at...

stynes, great post. Sums it up perfectly for me. I am sure those that bless communication are working long hours now, but would love a little more transparency at this point. For a company that said they want to under promise and over deliver, you may want to consider setting more attainable...

Hi neighbors, anything more on service/retail in DMV area? Kanundrum, you mention you know they are setup - do you mind me asking why? Really hoping we are lucky to be good out of the gate due to location. Wondering if not, are we close enough to Brooklyn location for major repairs to still be ok?

Question for resident experts, faster charging regardless of whether accomplished via 800/400 will degrade the battery cells faster correct? Said another way, does 800v charging change heat build in cells when charging as fast as possible?

Did they nix the switch functionality to charge 800v - 400 in parallel? I think they just needed to compromise to keep initial cost down on a feature that will be used very infrequently by most consumers. 99% of the electrons flowing to these babies will be from garage installed chargers. Would...

I can’t stress enough the importance of writing you US representative to express your viewpoint! I just did and I took me 5 minutes max typing on my iPhone 11 with big fumble thumbs. I think for most we can afford, but it is the principle

Thank you for putting this together. Complete SWAG, but I think they added the extra module because it was too hard to thread the range needle, as well as positive press on the conservative approach of first Porsche and then Ford vs. Tesla on real world vs. EPA. Probably cost them 2-3k extra per...

Ok…you should already know that there is no material way to increase efficiency with PM motors as you’ve highlighted in other posts without disengagement of the drivetrain. MT has flat out communicated that the truck goes into front wheel drive only. So what is the logical conclusion? Since we...

Not sure the purpose of this response. Pretty straightforward and if memory serves it was mentioned in one of the MT videos.

I am pretty sure I heard or read that the rear wheels decouple via clutch which could be done in an automated way within milliseconds - reducing drivetrain loss

Can one of the resident experts explain how they can efficiently go 2wd? Would they completely disengage the rear motors? Otherwise your rotating a permanent magnet motor which will be inefficient due to less than 1:1 regen…seems like a great feature for highway, but confused with how it would work

Crashmtb’s post of the R1T in blue shows nearly perfect panel gaps!! Good sign

Ugh…more of the same. Hard to not feel like we’ll be getting the same until late September with another delay announcement or a trickle of VIP deliveries. As most here, just using this an an outlet because I am a glass half full type, but really disappointing. If only there were another seven...

Do we have a known list of service centers under construction? Maybe this is where the Cox Automotive relationship comes into play? Maybe Rivian hired techs work from existing garages?
