  1. Anyone have issues with their R1T hood paint?

    sounds like clear coat oxidation which can happen from bird droppings which are acidic. This will happen on any car. A little compound on a microfiber cloth will take it right out. Obviously clean the area well before doing anything, don’t want to rub dirt and grime in.
  2. Issues trying to get a tire rotation due to rock sliders

    It’s a tire rotation. Not rocket science. They can jack on the control arms as well. I have a mobile tire service just come to my house and do rotations. I just asked him to bring a high-lift jack. I understand needing to remove it for balancing or if they need to put it on a lift, but for a...
  3. Anyone Have Tesla Powerwall or Solar?

    The lease deals are generally not advantageous. Have em removed and install a new system. It should be pretty straightforward considering that the basic infrastructure (subpanel etc.) is all there. If I’m not mistaken you get a federal tax credit worth 30% of the install, and payback is 7-8...
  4. Introductions & Welcome Thread đź‘‹

    We had a leased MY LR that ended in the Spring. I bought a used Gen 1 R1T quad (only 1 kid). So far it’s been great, and I got the service history before buying it, which gave me a sense of whether it had any significant issues. I caution going through a dealership the Mercedes-Benz dealer I...
  5. 21” Pirellis suck!

    FWIW I have the 21” Michelins and they have been great for the last 1k miles. Cost less as well.
  6. 21” Pirellis suck!

    Just replaced mine at 24k miles they were down to the wear bars… they looked nothing like that. I agree with others… heat? I’ve never seen a tire do that.
  7. Official: Scout EV SUV & Pickup debut w/ Gas Range Extender EREV, 4x4, BOF, Lockers, Sway Bar Disconnect -- All Specs, Wallpapers, Videos

    While turned on. I’m also a woodworker, garages are for tools not cars.
  8. Official: Scout EV SUV & Pickup debut w/ Gas Range Extender EREV, 4x4, BOF, Lockers, Sway Bar Disconnect -- All Specs, Wallpapers, Videos

    I had a BMW I3 with a REX. It seems great on face value, but even with the lower i3 range I never used it. They have to run in maintenance mode pretty frequently so this little scooter motor would just randomly run in the back of the car every few days. I also needed to change the oil every 5000...
  9. Air hose storage

    I use a Flexzilla 20ft. Door closes with the slime pack.
  10. What % of owners have experienced 12v battery failure?

    FWIW my dad had this happen in his Model Y and Model 3 and here is a forum thread that is remarkably similar to threads on here: https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/threads/12-volt-battery-dies-without-warning.302725/
  11. New EV Sportline Front Sunshade Doesn’t fit R1S

    They reached out yesterday, and offered a return label. I think response times are just very delayed. Just one data point.
  12. Rivian's Road Ahead: Is the Adventure Predictable or Risky?

    Would like to start by saying I would love to see them succeed. I also think with the stock as low as it is, they are a very attractive acquisition. It’s not just the software, it’s also that they are vertical. No dealerships, a flawed but existing service center network, RAN, engineering talent...
  13. New EV Sportline Front Sunshade Doesn’t fit R1S

    Yup I made a mistake on an order and it’s now been four days with no response from them. Phone call, multiple emails. Will update if they turn it around.
  14. R1S Launch Edition w/Meridian Audio - Defect or Normal?

    I had this yesterday morning, infotainment reset cleared it up. It seems to be a bug from the last update. It almost sounded like it was playing in Karaoke mode because the vocals were so muffled.
