    EV Sportline Running Boards Rusting after 2 Months

    Was contacted today and given a replacement order. Unfortunately this will require replacing everything and I did strip the head of one of the T55 bolts on install so this won't be fun removing that. On the plus side, I did have to grind down two of the brackets to get them to fix so they've...

    EV Sportline Running Boards Rusting after 2 Months

    Came across this post a few weeks back when it was constantly below zero. Wife was cleaning truck today and says both sides are rusting on the running boards. EDIT: added pictures. You can also see the screws used to hold down the step plate have the paint completely worn off too.

    pretty sure there is a garage at Wolf Point. I'm not sure where you expect to park if you cant' on the street (impossible in that area) and not comfortable in a garage. I work at the Merchandise Mart which across the street and just take the Metra in to Union Station and walk from there. It's...

    RAN Rivian Charging Stations Locations Map via Google Maps

    Did a long drive along the Skyline Drive and the entire Blue Ridge Parkway last week. We used a total of 8 different RAN sites. One thing we noticed is sometimes the cabinets would be lit up with a white light around the cabinet (turns green while charging) but not all of them. We sometimes...

    RAN Rivian Charging Stations Locations Map via Google Maps

    Actually, if you look at the layout for either Tesla or Rivians you have to pull forward on one side or back in on the other in order to use. This orientation actually works out for both.

    RAN Rivian Charging Stations Locations Map via Google Maps

    I've been planning a trip over the Blue Ridge Parkway in late October for a few months now. I've been tracking the status of all these RAN chargers mentioned in the story for months hoping they would be online in time for our trip (which they are now). I'm a bit confused on why this story...

    Last year's implementation required purchasing after the start of the cycle. So only those purchases after November 1st will be valid and then you have to apply within 90 days of purchase. But we'll see when they clarify.

    Introducing RMaxx Running Boards & Rock Sliders for Rivian R1T / R1S from Team 1EV

    I had two brackets that weren't sitting flush before I ground them down. One was on a plastic panel. I would worry that over time the panel might give a bit and thus you might end up with slight movement on your running board. The other was sitting on top of the washers holding down two...

    Introducing RMaxx Running Boards & Rock Sliders for Rivian R1T / R1S from Team 1EV

    reposting from another thread I did my install on Father's day as well. Decided to go with the slot method which in the end I'm glad I did because two of the brackets did not fit right and I had to grind them down to fit around other bolts in the frame. Took me about 5.5 hours total mostly solo...

    Should Be Excited, But Feeling Nervous

    Where there's a will there's a way. I've been getting by pulling a camper with just 100 miles of range and can find usable chargers (The two stalls I'm blocking here were actually down). More and more stations are coming on line and money from IRA requires CCS connection.
