Sorry, I did not snap any pics. Didn’t really think this needed a whole write up but just wanted the community to know it’s an option that exists should you choose to undertake the swap.
I’m really hoping that we begin to see more DIY fixes for the common issues as these trucks get beyond the...
Been cruising around for the last 2 months with a service 12v battery error. Finally got around to doing a DIY swap. Total cost for the 2 batteries as well as 2 pairs of SOONISH battery post relocators was $140
I used these batteries which were $38 each at the time

I’m about to DYI 12v replacement in the coming days. Just to confirm your vehicle was still operable after your 12v replacement just had errors you couldn’t clear from RIDE?
YOU think EV’s are outdated after 3 to 5 years. Plenty of people, myself included don’t really care about the autonomy stuff. I like that my truck is quick, has lots of storage, good comfort features, and just gets me A to B without fuss. It’ll continue to be these things next year, 5 years from...
This poll surprises the heck out of me. I’m 1 of the 2 votes for more advanced trails that caused a tie rod failure.
I drove my r1t pretty hard in ocotillo wells one night, blasting through whoops as quickly as it would handle, hill climbs, full throttle sections through sandy washes with...
I don’t think dampers are under powertrain, but I was under the impression half shafts were covered.
San Diego service center has always been very generous with warranty repairs to me. Hopefully there’s a resolution.
Tie rods
Bed step
More durable trim for the bed cap. I’m on my 3rd because I actually use my truck for conventional truck duty rather than overlanding or whatever. .
Between lack of tax credit and pre order pricing a gen 2 tri motor would cost me about $30k plus over what I paid for my quad.
It sounds like the gen 2 has some meaningful improvements (better cameras and autonomy mainly) but possiblsome sacrifices (lower capacity large battery)
If I had to...
I agree the waiting for a week before they even bring your vehicle in is dumb and needs to be resolved. A day or two wait I get but after that you’re just burning cash and goodwill
Battery size and price. Although I think the price is totally fair.
GEN 1 was a steal!
I’m interested to see gen 2 range tests. I don’t see how the eeked out 3mi/kwh efficiency.
Im Interested. In SanDiego. I have 21’s but they’ve got 12k on them. I’d be willing to put in a little more since you might want to start with fresh tires.
