we drove from Toronto to Detroit to personally see and size-up the Rivian R2……we both loved it! I feel it is perfectly sized for a couple, especially for Canadians, who are not gob-smacked by overtly large SUV’s that the American public loves! The Rivian R2 WILL replace my 2018 Tesla 3 LR!

Hi @ProfG dont you think your wife would prefer the smaller platform EX60…..soon to be unveiled!

TRUE to the core! Didn‘t GM, Ford & Stellantis do their utmost effort to block, delay & kill Tesla before it could grab a foothold in the North American market? That’s why I’m not promoting any of the “Big Three” OEMs I was. GM diehard for thirty years with SIX ice vehicles (Vega, Monza...

@UnsungZero_OldTimeAdMan Totally forgot about the Korean KIA, Hyundai & Genesis bevs I wanted to test-drive the new refreshed 2025 KIA EV6, which I love it’s quirky design, BUT, alas, no dealer contacted me to arrange a drive

Which makes me NEVER want to buy another “legacy” BEV I do not miss the ICE vehicles at all! My next BEV will be one of the following: Rivian R2 Volvo EX60 BMW Neue Classe Tesla Y Polestar 2 KIA EV6 (added) if allowed into North America, then add Zeekr 001 Zeekr X Xpeng (added) Xiaomi (added)

@ev_life Welcome to Rivian forum with your first post! I love it when I see an ICE driver come over to the “Electric” Side! Now, if only more of those over 6 Million+ Honda CRV owners would cross-over to the BEV world

This would be fantastic! Has Rivian or RJ ever mentioned adapting future Rivian models to a 48v system? I welcome this potential revision since it would also cut extra weight

I would definitely replace the original 12v battery with the light-weight one from Ohmmu. “Upgrade your Rivian R1S or R1T 12V battery or batteries with our Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePO4) batteries from Ohmmu!” Ohmmu 12V LiFePO4 batteries are lighter, more efficient, eco-friendly, have a...

If that were the case, I would switch my Reservation from R2 to R3X

Lovin the Forest Green colour even at sunset! I think I’m smitten!!!???

No, no no, no…..that was a slide!

Quote from the Yahoo news article, ” Coveted car plants Ramaswamy’s calculation may be overly simplistic, however. Vehicle plants are often the most prized of all industrial manufacturing sites, not merely because they directly sustain thousands of families with well-paying blue-collar jobs...

Groveland will definitely be on my travel list! Is the old-fashioned Saloon with the swinging doors still active? wanna visit just to experience the Western Saloon..

Forest Green SPARKLES! I really appreciate the small metallic flakes used on Rivian BEVs

IMHO, a clear windshield ppf is a worthwhile investment if you value your front windshield….its like cheap insurance! my PPF installer in the Toronto area (Markham) highly recommends a Japanese company (https://www.takaifilms.jp/) just my two cents…I will take the plunge!

Thx @BigSkies The $11 Billion dollars coming in from the US Government and VW Corporation will afford some additional time to buy time and become Cash-Flow positive @Canthoney i hope you’re correct before Elon & Vivek try to derail this loan Thx @DuoRivian hopefully it’s fully operational...

I also saw my first I.D Buzz on the 401 “superhighway” in Toronto this week. it has great road presence and was moving at a good clip!

@rutiger Your FOREST GREEN Rivian is stunning! fyi, I’ve been contemplating which colour to get for my future R2… methinks Forest Green gets the nod…. But I’m not changing my avatar name to Green Avenger! ( sure is tempting however)

Love your forged wheels….BUT, methinks I should get the Rivian 2 first!

@Paul Hackett why don’t you just use the Tesla SC network (with Tesla adapter) here’s the calculated route for a Tesla X Plaid
