Launch Green for me!

Yes, I'm well aware that others needs are different from mine; I live 2.2 non-bike friendly miles from work. We struggle to put 10k on our primary EV per year, the secondary EV, lmao, I have to drive it once per week just to keep the 12v charged. I missed that you were already an EV owner...

Yes, you're the only one. I've been driving EV's for almost 11 years now. When EV's were in the 100 mile range you (or people like you) were saying you need 200 miles of range. When EV's were in the 150 miles range you (or people like you) were saying you need 300 miles of range. When EV's...

Thanks for moving us all up one spot. R3/R3X is going to be amazing.

It was a single-payment lease, no car payments for the past two years has been nice and the total paid was less than the depreciation from the Bolt EUV it replaced (owned it two years as well). It's been a great vehicle actually, just very disappointed with the audio. My sister did a...

Plus $100/mo if you want autonomy, $100/mo forever and ever. It adds up over time, 60 months, $6,000.

More fair points, also what works for me along my bespoke route might not work for you on yours. "Full of misinformation and ignorant hot takes" is gold. EV owners can be odd birds for sure, I've seen a lot of misinformation and garbage hot takes over the past 11 years.

Fair points, 800v is nice but how much real-world time is actually saved? I like the look of the iX3 and I do miss BMW ownership (330i ZHP for 10 years then three BMW i3's between my husband and I), but I'm really into the Rivian ethos, outdoorsy, adventurous. I noted elsewhere that as...

Careful comparing interior dimensions based on exterior dimensions when comparing ICE and EV. EV's are often (though not always) much more space efficient inside than ICE. Hopefully we'll have interior space dimensions tomorrow. 1" longer than a CRV could still be just as large if not larger...

I tried to get my better half into a used XC40 late last year, in the $25k range. Wow, we thought our Equinox EV was decently quick but the AWD XC40 Recharge was LIGHTNING fast. I loved it, he didn't, if the R2 wasn't coming I would consider one but then again that tiny screen, ugh.

It won't compete with the iX3's 800v architecture for DCFC for sure. As stations get closer together one might be more efficient with time by charging to ~50% and moving on to the next charger. I once made a trip in a Bolt EUV with 55k max (down in the 20's around 70%) across several states so...

Beats the 6, yes I said 6, speaker system in my Equinox EV. I changed the door speakers to Kickers but it's still not enough. This is my first vehicle without a branded sound system and it's awful. Hopefully the 9-speaker setup will have an amp, sounds like it anyway, two mids and tweets per...

Lidar is Rivian's way to play catch-up to you know who... Once they catch up they won't need Lidar and vehicles with Lidar will be toting around abandoned hardware. Vision-only is the way.

Nice, my only gripe is the grey headliner, I like black headliners, they just disappear (and don't show dirt). Our leased Equinox EV has a black headliner. Model Y just recently changed to black headliner as well.

Thank you! Wow, thats tempting for sure...

Fair enough, thanks for the information and additional context. Certainly something to keep in mind if we do go down the pre-owned Rivian pathway.

Amazing... But, like Rivian's dark photos, your photo is on an overcast day. I guess there's a possibility the photo I posted was overexposed. Need to see this color in person. Regardless I'm happy to see that they offer it, we need more color.

I may flip to R1T as well, but it's even longer than R1S so I have little hope of it fitting in our garage and me still being able to navigate to my toolbox in front of it. I don't want to have to back the vehicle out every time I need a screwdriver from the toolbox. Ideal situation is we get...

I haven't had the pleasure of seeing Borealis in person, but it looks a bit like Barney to me in full sun. I love Rivian's photos of it in the dark but during the daylight 🫤

I feel differently, white and black are mixed to make grey. "Yes, white and black are considered the endpoints of the grey spectrum (or grayscale). They are achromatic colors that lack hue, with black representing 0% brightness (total absorption) and white representing 100% brightness (total...
