Colorado Checking In

Hey Brothers and Sisters, splain me dis.
How is it that there isn’t a single effin DCFC within Ft Collins city limits? The nearest Tesla SC is in Loveland and the nearest CCS DCFC is in Wellington.

I going to drive up to State Forest State Park today (least original naming ever) but I‘ll have to use the Jeep this time. I’m just amazed that a city like Ft Collins, with all its tech businesses, doesn’t have a single dang DCFC in city limits.

FTC has unfortunately focused on L1 and 2 across the city. Maybe Kyle Conner will let you use his DCFC when it gets installed. Wellington is the closest you are correct. Also a few EVGo being bolt but even those are only 50 KWh.

There is a 50 kW EVGo station at the FoCo Museum of Discovery, but looks like it's currently down. Not that 50 kW is all that "fast" for our trucks.

Yep. It sucks. And oh do I have a L2 charging story at Odell for you. Not good.

It’s weird planning man.
I’m amazed Tesla doesn’t even have a single SC in Ft Collins. They don’t even have one planned. FC has several Walmarts and not one EA DCFC. Heck even Greeley has those coming. <facepalm>

There is a DCFC at the Target EA station in Loveland, which is very close to I-25/ Hwy 34. I partially chose my condo because it is right up the street from me. But you are correct, FoCo is a different story for some reason…

Any RMRC folks going to the Rivian Space early open house tomorrow night? I’ll be there signing autographs and scaring kids with my every day face (no Halloween costume needed) ?

There is another open house on Friday night if you can’t come Thursday.

We might still make it - I'll talk to the boys tonight, if we go it will be right at the 6pm opening.

I didn't realize they were opening/doing something tonight (Thursday). Maybe I just skimmed over subsequent emails about it.

They aren't opening tonight, they open tomorrow for the general public but tonight is a sneak peek event for RMRC (Rocky Mtn Rivian Club) members.

Wish I could have gone to the opening yesterday. I’ve been on a business trip this week. Hopefully I can go on Saturday morning.

We ended up making it, a few photos from the event!

Hi all. Does anyone have a spare Rivian-branded crossbar they'd be willing to part with? I'm willing to pay!

Just wondering if anyone bought two sets but may only need 3 for your R1. I'd like to get a 3rd bar for the top of our R1S when we carry gear up top. And if someone locally wants to split a set, I'd consider buying new as well. Thanks!
