    Is range improvement over time possible?

    from Colorado summer to winter I see a .3mi/kWh difference average over the whole season

    Do you agree with the rivian rating at your local dcfc?

    Not saying this was necessarily your issue. But didnā€™t the vehicle used to provide more power info about why it was not charging? E.g limited by charger, battery cold, I swear I remember that and they took it awayā€¦. I stayed in beaver creek a few weeks ago for a fundraiser and tried to charge...

    Do you agree with the rivian rating at your local dcfc?

    Yikes thatā€™s the one Iā€™d look to for a low score. Next time Iā€™ll stop there just to hopefully supply some negative data for it

    Lomaxx tonneau cover inhibits spare tire access

    I havenā€™t tried it, but I believe if you follow the instructions of removing the pin through the spare you can get it out even with the stock rivian tonneau closed. Iā€™m sure itā€™s not easy, but it is supposed to be possible.

    Theyā€™re not on the rivian navigation for some reason, but there are four ChargePoint DCFC at the target in Silverthorne just FYI. We stopped there this past weekend when we saw the state of the frisco EA. Those new Starbucks/volvo/ChargePoint chargers popping up around the state have Been pretty...

    Tesla saves Rivian - Mammoth Mountain Edition

    So how many miles did it take to get down to bishop? Would it have worked on the 90 miles? Did you need to charge longer at the EA? I have had experiences like this where I made a miscalculation but try to plan for the next oneā€¦ unfortunately this is the reality in some mountain locations. How...

    Go Fast Camper for R1T Announced

    So the topper option excludes the extended portion with the bed correct? Interesting I didnā€™t see any photos of that. That would be the first R1T topper?

    Flash Light Powerbank?

    Do all vehicles still have the camp speaker? We use this as a power bank when camping.

    those are great, it has been very nice having an alternative to the unreliable EA at the target

    Had kind of an interesting experience yesterday driving up time the tunnel. Not particularly cold, but I was at a lower SOC compared to normal, about 17%. On the way up I had no ability to accelerate (granted I was already at 65mph). The blue bar was shortened and it was maxed out. In all...

    Poll - Do you plan to place R2 Reservation for $100?

    Yes. I am not normally a 70k vehicle buyer. If I can get one which meets my needs (1. Electric, 2. Off-road capable) for less money, and it doesnt kill the R1 value (e.g. if I need to drive the r1 150k miles to make it make sense financially I will, but if I can trade it in for an r2 and have a...

    Trouble in the snow with my QM R1T Adventure

    For reference, last winter with the quad motor I was constantly limited on CO mountain passes. Now I havenā€™t seen the message once since the update. The display always looks like itā€™s regenerating but based on experience I think he is right, itā€™s just hidden now.

    Trouble in the snow with my QM R1T Adventure

    Umm. Buy snow tires and you can ignore the rest of the thread regarding snow performance. 1.5 winters and Iā€™ve never thought about quad vs dual, whatā€™s my regen at, sometimes Iā€™ve forgotten to switch out of conserve for miles of nasty road and never even slipped. The only cost is the twice...

    Crested Butte Waypoint camping

    lol I was gonna say that is bold camping right there! Really enjoy those chargers. We are staying near there for a while this March.

    lol yep we are MTNRIV. Agreed it was good skiing! Brutal drive. Not quite that long to golden but makes sense, it was worse in town than the mountains.

    Nice, we were in the green R1T. That is earlier than usual but it was busier than usual so makes sense! I think I counted 7 rivians in the first two rows of parking on my way out

    Interesting (scary) locking issue this afternoon

    Agree with @Dark-Fx , I think more likely an error in unlocking doors, than the gear tunnel being available without a key.

    I am pretty sure they will let you in to the early riser lot as an EV even if you don't charge, but they may have always assumed I was charging anyway. Doesn't help if you are an Ikon passholder, but Arapahoe Basin passholders get charging for free, you can set it up in the chargepoint app/a...

    Snow Mode / Regenerative Brake Assist observation

    I believe this removes the occasional coasting that R1s could exhibit, e.g. they are not regen braking because they can't, so they coast. In my experience it was more of an intrusion in the behavior of the vehicle because you are so accustomed to it braking when you lift your foot. I haven't...
