Great quote! I took this photo yesterday, and I watched the movie last night.

Big horse with tiny rider equals small saddle.

I saw the R2 and R3 at the Denver showroom earlier this year. I ordered an R2 but would probably change it to an R3 if I had the option. I would like the R3 to have an over 1,000 hp option with smaller/lighter battery pack though.

Does anyone know for sure what doesn't work if you don't recalibrate? Safelite can do my windshield here in Boulder, but not the calibration.

Race teams never use a combo of gasses. A dry gas is a dry gas. Good old air is fine if it's dry. Nitrogen is used in race cars (and airliners) because it is dry, cheap, and doesn't support combustion. There is no advantage to nitrogen over dry air when it comes to performance of the tire. Tire...

I was surprised to to see the woman standing so close to the tow truck cables while they were under tension with the Rivian hanging off them. If one of them snapped she might not like it.

A guy starter a thread here some time ago about flooring it and watching his luggage fly out the back of his R1S onto the freeway. He claimed he had shut the tailgate doors properly, but that sounded suspicious to me.

That was the recommendation decades ago, but no longer. My Discount Tire here in Boulder moves the fronts from RF to RR and LF to LR but crosses the rears from RR to LR and LR to RF. There is evidence that reversing direction on the stock Rivian 20's helps minimize tire noise as the tires wear.

If you are going to get 50K - 60K out of your tires, I have one thing to say to you: Drive harder than like you stole it! p.s. Nice write-up, thanks.

Vaporware. This will never, ever see production as presented here. The Icon, with its checkered past and this year's Chapter 11 filing, is a $400,000 toy. For some that works!

Hey, these aren't for your 1997 Chevy Cavalier.

I'll have Progressive quote my other car and house too. We had a huge wildfire here a couple years ago though, it burned 1,000 homes, so that's a big factor.

Wow, I didn't know anyone could get insurance for that little. I'm fewer miles than that, and personal/pleasure. I guess I'll get a quote from Progressive tomorrow. I'm at $160/mo including glass with State Farm.

If you had said, "peeing behind the seats" I would say turn him in. But behind the truck? Meh.

Discount Tire in Boulder knows what's up. They have pucks, and special jacks for the overweight Rivian.

What a beauty! I had one walk down my alley last summer her in Boulder. At first glance through the trees I thought it was a horse. A big horse!

I don't know, surely not a refresh reduction though, that doesn't sound feasible.

Speed limit much higher. Horsepower much higher (well over 1,000). Massive weight reduction of over 10%. Increased brake cooling as last year brakes overheated, glowed red, and cracked. Big problems right now with overheating and going into reduced battery output mode. A lot of engineering/mods...
