Opinion: The truck needs to switch to front wheel drive automatically on the highway.

Having more battery left doesn't save charging time. Got it.

Next thing you know OP will be telling us that Driver+ should draft semis automatically to increase range.

If the semi trucks are doing 80, I'm gonna draft them all day long.

Your point? We know going slower is more efficient. And going front wheel drive would add efficiency to all the above (proven with my own truck and on various youtube vids).

I couldn't care less about those 90 seconds of time saved.

I will say Rivians sure do attract a different crowd then the typical EV does. Lesson learned there.

It's not 90 seconds. Take a 2000 mile+ road trip and you're looking at a half hour saved staring at the SoC. Then there's all that stuff about making the world a better place with more efficient vehicles, less energy consumed, less global warming, etc... but I'll just go fuck myself with that rhetoric on rivian forums.

You wanna save the world, don't take 2000 mile road trips.
