That is what we all came here for...

Well played, sir. Well played. You have now created a life-long enemy...

I noted it, it drove me batsh-t crazy, but a tiny seed of empathy hit me and I elected not to comment. Frankly, I'm disappointed in myself for the restraint.

You should invite him to dinner to "discuss" his concerns...

I commute from Arvada into downtown every day, and the efficiency hit is most notable before the battery warms up. I'll get around 1.3-1.8 mpkw when the battery is below 38, but when it is warmed up, the difference is not that noticeable. I've driven to Copper Mountain and back in 4 degrees and...

Nevermind. I just found your other post: I purchased a 3rd party EW, XCare, last March when I was at 55K miles. I’ve filed 3 claims so far, totaling over $14K in repairs. I’m now at 72K miles.

Forgive me if you have already stated this elsewhere, but which EW did you use? I'm planning to hold on to my R1S "forever" and a good EW will help in that cause.

ClearVU and CamWash make aftermarket attachments that can "T" into your existing sprayer. Some are model specific, but they make a universal one. Not sure if anyone has tried them yet, but for $100, it might be worth being a guinea pig for some of you more creative/ambitious types...

See apology, above.

My apologies. What a terrible oversight on the design side. I use that thing every day in the winter...

My 2023 R1S has a washer nozzle that operates every time I use the rear window wash feature. Did not realize they did not include it in the Gen 2.

Can't you just run the rear window washer a bit more frequently to wash off the camera?

I had to give up on the Rivian wave; too many Rivians in the Denver area, and my kids kept making fun of me since no one waved back... Sorry to those Colorado folks I don't wave to now.

Increase your tire pressure to the specified psi. That should help considerably. Running it at 45 will eat into your efficiency, in my experience. With the G1 Quad and the Goodyear Wrangler A/T 20s, I got about 2.35 for the same period of time that you looked through.
