We drive to Kirkwood regularly with a gen 2 max pack dual motor. It's about 180 miles. With skis on a rack and driving the way I drive (fast not efficienct) it takes ~60% charge to get to Jackson, and another 35–40% to get to Kirkwood. Confident I could make it in one charge driving slowly but...
Have had an issue with scheduled charging in the app...the location keeps resetting to the service center, resulting in the vehicle charging outside of the scheduled window. Hasn't happened for a few days so hoping it was fixed by a recent update.
Also...tin can door closing feel and door...
Second the door fit issue on Gen2. Alignment is not great, takes a lot of effort to close and yet the doors don't feel solid and make disconcerting sounds.
Efficiency has been good so far on 22's...about 2.7 mi/kWh with 70/30 highway/city driving.
Ride quality is much improved as others have...
I also just picked up a Gen 2 in the last couple days and have a few issues (mainly door alignments, one small area the size of a quarter where there seems to be a paint imperfection). Curious what your issues are in particular??
My ticket resulted in a service being scheduled in October...
Ordered a dual max from shop two days ago. Already showing as 'ready for purchase' and have a VIN. When do you think we'll see the first gen2 deliveries to customers??!
It had the new front light bar. 22" wheels and silver calipers so assumed it was DM max pack but could have been a standard range w/ upgraded wheels. May very well have been a test vehicle/employee car.
I read in at one of the various reviews following the release of the Gen 2 last week that the vampire drain issue has been solved. Can anyone confirm? What % battery loss are folks seeing per week?
My experience with Ford has been that battery loss is ≤ 1% sitting 1–2 weeks. Hope Gen 2 gets us...
I'm not surprised. Part of the rationale for offering lease deals to the remaining preorder holders is to get them to split the savings, i.e. the customer saves money short term on the lease, Rivian saves $ long term by not selling as many R1s 15–20k under MSRP. The tax credit also plays into...
That's good to know! Any idea what the MF and residual are? When I plug a 20% cap cost reduction + $7,500 tax credit + $7,000 down payment with 0.00262 MF and 67% residual(found on Reddit) into a calculator, I get a much lower monthly payment than is shown in shop.
I don't think it's a given that 'lease vouchers' will get at 20% capitalized cost reduction. If you're familiar with leasing, you know that there are multiple levers a dealer can pull to reduce the monthly payment. One is the 'money factor' i.e. interest rate. Another is the purchase price...
