  1. Tesla to Rivian?

    Driver+ is fine but not as good as Autopilot on long curves. Driver+ slows down too much on long sweeping turns, whereas autopilot carries speed pretty well. On long straight roads, Driver+ has less phantom braking.
  2. Porche can sell you a car with 0-60 in 3.1 and a range of 233 miles for only $163,400K

    The '25 TCT looks pretty good, but pricing is in line with the rest of the Porsche line up... A decently equipped 4S is probably around $135k. Would make for a great used car in a couple years though. What I read is that the software is so so. And charging wise, it's awesome but requires high...
  3. would you buy R1T again as of 3/25/2024?

    5th EV, 1st truck, loving it after 16 months and 20k miles. Would buy again, but most likely a dual motor. No gripes with the stalks at all, but to each his own. May buy a R2 when it comes out.
  4. Tesla Universal Charger with Magic Dock Adapter Won't Recognize Rivian R1S

    Logged in a ticket within the Tesla app. They pushed firmware and after a circuit breaker reset all was good.
  5. This is why I no longer use the Rivian for Long Distance trips.

    A 75% charging success rate is completely unacceptable. This should change with access to Tesla SC hopefully.
  6. This is why I no longer use the Rivian for Long Distance trips.

    Issue is that OP is an outlier. If spending an extra hour per leg on the annual road trip is what prevents someone from switching to EV, then that person can't do math. I more than save that time throughout the year from not going to gas stations, getting oil changes, etc. Again, EVs can't...
  7. This is why I no longer use the Rivian for Long Distance trips.

    Reality is that today, long distance road trips require more time in an EV, and if infrastructure fails, then it becomes a giant time suck. For most folks that road trip 2x a year, it should be easy to deal with, especially with access to Tesla SC, but for OP which apparently does one a month...
  8. This is why I no longer use the Rivian for Long Distance trips.

    I optimized my road trip to drive about 2 hours and then charge for 20. That was most efficient
  9. This is why I no longer use the Rivian for Long Distance trips.

    I agree that the lack of reliable EA infrastructure is a pain. I had to plan my trip ahead of time to make sure I would be fine, something I wouldn't do in the Tesla. Hopefully, access to the Tesla SC changes that. As for 2 hours being an issue, it all depends. In my case it was probably just an...
  10. This is why I no longer use the Rivian for Long Distance trips.

    If one does a long road trip once a month and time of the essence, then I get it. Otherwise, I don't. Main issue is usually getting an Airbnb with a charger.
  11. This is why I no longer use the Rivian for Long Distance trips.

    Interesting. I did 760 miles in one day and charging added a lil over 2 hours. Wasn't a big deal.
  12. R3 looks like the perfect car for me

    In Europe, the R3 will do very well. I think it's super neat and I am glad that Rivian did it.
  13. R3 looks like the perfect car for me

    Everyone loves the idea of an R3 but most will buy an R2. While hot hatches are super cool, they're not as practical and few will buy one.
  14. Very glad Rivian isn’t playing stupid games like Tesla here

    Need to sell at least 500 shares to buy one
  15. ⚡️ Rivian announces: March Tesla Supercharger access & free NACS adapters!

    Not too worried. It will work itself out. We just gonna need a lot more fast chargers in general. Tesla is currently instally 7-9k stalls per year in the US and selling about 1M vehicles per year.
  16. ⚡️ Rivian announces: March Tesla Supercharger access & free NACS adapters!

    I guess that over time prices will come down as the upfront investment becomes amortized out. At least I hope so
