  1. 4th crack in windshield. OMG I’m so done

    I’ve had mine for a week and already have a pit. I’ve never cracked a windshield across decades of driving. Here’s my theory based on seeing the rock hit my windshield: the grill-less frontend pops rocks up into the windshield instead of “absorbing” the rocks like a grill (really AC...
  2. Finding max battery pack r1s

    I just bought a 2024 Performance Dual Max Pack from Carvana for $75k. It’s the holy grail of R1S’s as far as I’m concerned. They’re out there, but you won’t find them available by just looking. You’re going to have to sign up for every used car site to receive their push notifications...
  3. Purchasing Used 2023 with Only 140 miles - Bad Idea?

    Just heard back from Carmax - the vehicle won’t hold a charge. They’ve “charged” it multiple times, and each time is drains back to 0% They are going to refund the transfer fee. So back to the original question: is it bad for the battery to be unattended for several months? Based on this...

  5. Indecision

    @Fencer That’s a lot of miles! But why are the mi/kWh low? I assume a lot of 80+ MPH driving? Asking because I’m about to purchase my first EV/Rivian and what to establish realistic range expectations.

    Thanks for the input. I haven't driven a Gen 1 yet, I'll do that when it arrives at Carmax later this week. Regarding taxes in GA, they changed the method to a one-time tax at purchase or whenever you register the car, but at least there isn't additional sales tax.
  7. Purchasing Used 2023 with Only 140 miles - Bad Idea?

    Test drove a Gen2 Tri yesterday. Amazing car. Anyways, I've been running the numbers and here's how they are looking. My wife and I prioritize the range increase as a justification to pay more for a Gen 2. In short, I would need to pay $11k more + go through the Lease->Buy game to add get...

  9. Purchasing Used 2023 with Only 140 miles - Bad Idea?

    Hello, I'm looking to purchase this 2023 R1S Quad Adventure. The vehicle only has 140 miles. It looks like the vehicle was prepped in 9/2023 and first titled 10/2023 as a lease vehicle. At first I thought "Hey, it's basically a brand new car!".... but then I realized that not driving or...
