That's like my daughter's date promising that he will not have sex with her.

Am I really gonna rely upon that, or just hope for it?

I have nothing of value to bring to this conversation, but that's an awesome analogy lol

Anyone watch this? New update... or newish.. but in the notes it shows DC fast charging improvement... I wonder.. 1min mark

In the future, it says, its vehicles will be able to accept energy at a rate of 300-plus kilowatts after an over-the-air update.

Rivian has been taking a lot of pages out of Tesla playbook. I wonder if the upgrade to 300 KW charging will be a $5K option that becomes available in 2024. Sounds like a must have for those that plan to tow. Even if 10% of the owners go for it, that would be a good chunks of change.

Might be worth it if it works. But I hope Rivian doesn't go full Tesla and offer to allow people to pay to be "beta testers" for a program that never fully develops.
