True, but the nerd in me was just curious. I always go with fully forged lighter wheels on my EVs, and I'm constantly looking for ways to reduce unsprung weight wherever I can with what's available, even if it's only a small difference.
Thank you @Sojhinn. 🙏 Thank you.
I'm so ready. I've been driving my R1S more often lately and coming from my X Plaid that had an upgraded sub + mids... If you know you know right? Even the stock Tesla systems make the Rivian sound like a base corolla.
Question(s) for y'all.
Is bumping up to...
I've been a Michelin guy for years and have run them on pretty much all of my vehicles. They're excellent tires. That said, I switched to the Hankook iON series when they first came out a few years ago, and they've honestly been great.
From my experience, the Hankooks have a slight edge in a...
My guess is it's more about production planning than anything else.
With Rivian heavily focused on getting the R2 launched, it wouldn't surprise me if they're simplifying configurations, colors, and options to reduce complexity and improve efficiency overall. It could also be something as...
Maybe I missed it while reading through the replies, but I haven't seen anyone mention the steering wheel scroll wheels. Those would be high on my list. The rear window too for sure!
Looking to trade my pristine OEM 20" All-Terrain wheel/tire package (recently installed by Rivian, excellent tread, no damage, still has stickers) for a like-new (equal condition) OEM 22" Dark Sport wheel/tire package. Depending on tread depth and condition, cash adjustment may be requested...
True, however, Tesla is also in a unique position because they’re so far ahead in autonomy right now. FSD has become one of Tesla’s biggest differentiators, to the point where they can remove basic Autopilot from new vehicles and still continue selling cars at scale (much less now, but still way...
It still baffles me that Rivian didn’t include more outlets, especially for a vehicle marketed around adventure and utility. Imagine if we had the kind of beefy power outlets found in the Lightning or Silverado EV. My experience using the outlets in the Lightning has been fantastic.
The audio...
Rivian really can’t afford to create a situation right now that introduces an Osborne effect.
We already saw something similar with Tesla. A lot of owners held off waiting for HW5, only to find out HW4 is likely here to stay for consumer vehicles because Tesla considers it more than capable for...
The side shades would be amazing for the kids & camping. Thanks for taking note of this. Fingers crossed!
Gen2 R1S black shades would be great + fresh air from carbon filters.
I’m with you. The EV tax credit getting demonized (great way to put it BTW) while oil subsidies quietly continue year after year is so contradictory.
It is funny though seeing some of the loudest anti-EV people now paying crazy prices at the pump, especially diesel owners. Times definitely...
Haha! I about fell out of my chair laughing.
See what I mean with certain people? Classic example of that group and type. The lack of logic precisely describes that bunch.
They get to have their cake and actually eat it too because of Elon, while applying and ignoring the double standard to...
Elon thanks you, despite the double standard held by many. If it wasn't for Elon/Tesla _____. It's amazing how many conveniently ignore this. Baffling.
And like what others have said enjoy your Tesla NACS adapter and the best Tesla super charger network. Thanks Elon.
This is exactly why we...
