    First off road adventure, and a Jeep recovery

    I really look forward to winter runs with the windows open, and nearly zero sound without the AC running.

    First off road adventure, and a Jeep recovery

    Finally took it off road, just some light trails to get a feel for it. Got a lot of stares from "normal" off road vehicles, and one cool conversation. On the fly suspension adjustment and the excellent control with electric motors are a huge advantage. The suspension can be unsettlingly loud...

    State 48 Rivians

    Have you searched in Plugshare for all of your options? I see a few, particularly if you include RV parks which aren't super fast of course, but can give you about 20 MPH. And what's the range difference with tire/wheel changes?

    "Exit truck and stay away..." DCFC battery alert

    I suppose I should find a way to confirm it, this is what someone at the service center told me. In our Tesla they were lead-acid at first, but around 2020 they started going with lithium.

    Tesla Level 3 DCFC Adapter, Level 2 EV Charging Adapters & Portable Charger for Summer Road Trip + Route Planning Tools.

    The Stellar adapter and the J+ EVSE are INSANELY overpriced, without any benefit. I've been using these. https://www.godiag.com/wholesale/godiag-ev-charger-level1-2-16a-with-21ft-cable.html I got the 32a version from their eBay store for $100 shipped. Works great, easy to set and monitor...

    "Exit truck and stay away..." DCFC battery alert

    the battery is LiFeP04, not lead acid.

    Had to try my new NACS adapter at a Tesla Supercharger

    You know, I have several, and can't recall. Either Dupont Non-stick or WD-40 Dry (*NOT* regular WD-40) most likely. I've also used GN high-molybdenum grease with great results. It's got a super thin film and doesn't really leave things greasy.

    Trailer light issue

    Ground issues often show up only under load. You need to start physically checking all connections.

    Had to try my new NACS adapter at a Tesla Supercharger

    I put dry lube on mine since I’d heard about them being hard to fit and remove.

    Trade-in check engine light came on

    I have a similar sensor warning on my Smart. I clear it, and it comes back on few weeks later. I have the coolant solenoid and just haven’t done it, so keep clearing it. Clear it and hand it over.

    Radar Detector hard wire, who has done it?

    LOL, yup. I don't speed enough to care in the truck, but I do have a jammer on the motorcycle. Honestly I wouldn't even buy a detector for myself, but the wife has a lead foot and she had this in the closet from her last car.

    Radar Detector hard wire, who has done it?

    Same here, that's why I went with the mirror mount and not the easy dash or lower windshield mount. Video and details:

    Cool MOLLE panels for center console by @electrified_overland

    I totally get it, some people thought I made my Gladiator ugly because it was sort of a luxury truck. Your cable routing is great, and I should have thought of it, but didn't. That will also work for my cell repeater, thanks!

    Supercharging limitation - is this new?

    I guess so, but that's rather counter-productive for speed, since the time to get to/from charging is a constant and is larger than most people think. With the trailer, my time-killer was getting it to 90 or above to be sure I'd make the next charger. Now I know I would with less, but the...

    Supercharging limitation - is this new?

    I think I may have hit four in a day, when towing with the Tesla 3. I wasn't going all that slow, and it ate up a lot of range. Five seems hard to hit.

    Cool MOLLE panels for center console by @electrified_overland

    I would have put those in any of my Jeeps, because they look as rugged as they are. But in a luxury truck? That's ugly as hell and looks horrible. I do need to find a place to stash that same radio/battery, though I'm using a Diamond long antenna on it, not external. Which antenna are you...

    Does anyone make real sliders that are NOT running boards too?

    I haven't looked at the specific install steps yet, though I have a vague overview from various posts. In your opinion, would it make sense to pre-prep the panels now, whenever I have time, and make the install easier later? Or am I just going to have to repeat a lot of steps? My helper and I...

    Interior driver camera on a 2024?

    I used Scotch tape to beat Elon Musk. My Tesla was using the camera to detect road attention, and it was overly sensitive. Plus on Autopilot there's not reason not to look away when there's nobody around and the road is wide open, so I'd read messages or whatever. Black tape seemed to have...
