It was some issue on the Francis end. They had me completely reset my account. Not sure why that helped because they couldn't even push a charge to my truck before but there must have been some sort of glitch where my truck was on the naughty list. Works now.

It is way more exciting than I thought it would be. Getting in the garage and getting out.

Maybe my comment came across a bit snarky. Probably more appropriate to say that if a person were to find the overall appearance of the cybertruck offensive, the durability of the body is not a sales point. But if a person liked the way both trucks looked than durability may matter. I have an...

My R1T with a few paint scratches and dents will look a whole lot better than a pristine stainless steel cybertruck.

This must be it. This must be the answer. Although unless. It was Sunday, I can't imagine the picky kids choosing subway.

I'm 8,000 miles in on mine since April with no complaints at all. Cant comment on winter road treatment causing issues though.

Environmental issues aside, the world is nowhere close to running out of fossil fuels. Gasoline and natural gas may become more expensive as supply shifts to higher marginal cost reservoirs, but there is sufficient oil and natural gas and coal accessible for every one of us to drive ICE...

I'd put any oddball diameter tire on the rear and run in conserve while getting your other tire fixed/replaced. I went from 21s to 20s in April and ended up just buying a throwaway rim and tire from Discount to keep as a spare since the appearance wasn't really a concern. I would not go...

Depending on how the power is generated, and how exactly we want to account for mining emissions in a foreign country, the idea that a 7000 lb electric truck is better for the planet than a gas guzzler probably still open for reasonable debate. That doesn't even account for the increased tire...

Touché. Just replace 12v every so often.

I work under the general assumption that there are very few actual "news" outlets online. Regardless of whether they are opinion based or not, this particular article was represented as the product of actual research conducted by an "independent" economic research and consulting group. The...

I read articles like this occasionally and am genuinely interested if their conclusions jive with y'all's experience. I traded a 2016 F150 for my R1T. My fuel cost on the F150 got around 17 mpg across 135k miles. At $3.50, that's around 20 cents a mile. With my Rivian, I am averaging 2.1...

To answer you last question, you are not asking too much. This is one of the most discussed topics on this forum. It is also formally posted on Rivian's website in the configurator for both vehicles. In addition to the above post you may be interested in the following discussion. These two...

Both of these statements are spot on. Buying a new car cannot be financially justified, but the QX60 is a dog that needs to be put down. My wife was so committed to that idea that she didn't get the oil changed for 2+ years and blew the engine. If you had the same commitment, once the engine...

Elon's trying to accelerate the advent of sustainable transport. Surely nobody is suggesting that Elon would jeopardize that mission in any way by aggressively leveraging their monopoly like hold on the sector.

For what it is worth, I run android and have seen no change to data or battery consumption since updating the app.

Interesting part at the end regarding the closed loop for lithium supply. "But in my lifetime, we'll also see a world where the source of our lithium is old lithium-ion batteries. And so you get this closed loop and it's why every lithium manufacturer, lithium processor in the world is...

I've got some worn out 21s on the cheap.

I have the aero covers and the tpms. I have 3 of the center caps, but cannot for the life of me find the 4th. I could meet you somewhere to do a "swap."

My tailgate unlocks, but doesn't automatically open. I was going to get it fixed, but I kind of like the extra security. A waring pops up on the dash to service the tailgate, but the unlock does work just fine.
