The suspension is poorly executed especially when there are good examples of air to be pulled from. Like it or not, Land Rover has the right idea with a sealed system, it’s why Ram ditched the open version and copied the n2 sealed variety. You just cannot use an open compressor and expect not to...

Wyoming has 85 too. You’re big, but not thaaat special.

I didn’t hear anything about the chemistry but I was told 800v is coming along with a heat pump. Quad Rivian sourced motor to be introduced shortly after.

FWIW, This is what I’ve also been told from a completely separate set of sources.

Hence a multi week shutdown. A two week shutdown is HUGE in a business where you’re measuring revenue in the millions per hour.

The next generation is what is coming up q3 2024.

My little bird told me 800v plus heat pump for better thermal management.

Yeah I prefer the folks spying on me to be domestic with an even worse humanitarian record.

It should be clean, you’re right. You also need to go touch some grass.

I just cancelled my pre-order and they definitely tried to steer me to holding the reservation. I then also got an email after I cancelled offering a number of vehicles in the store for quick delivery. Demand is softening.

Just drive the thing. A body shop could fix the stamping crease by using filler or replace the door skin. Either in my mind is worse than just leaving it alone. PDR cannot fix that.

I hope they tread very carefully with subscription based features. Autonomous driving? Sure, that requires some level of continued development and overhead. Additional driving modes or other things the vehicle is already capable of? Hell no.

He was also a Narcissistic Nazi who took credit for the innovations of his employees.

Maybe this would help some folks get it: I have a polestar 2 and a ram 1500 for towing. I had a Rivian that was supposed to do both but it sucked too much at actually being a truck. I don’t love burning gas when I don’t have to but I’m not willing to compromise on what a truck is able to...

The engineering to achieve simultaneous charging and driving has to be tough. This is pretty bleeding edge stuff.

The ramcharger uses the pentastar, the ice vehicles use the hurricane.

Yeah you’re right this isn’t the right forum for it but I do think we should be clear eyed that none of these things are really helping all that much.

if you care about emissions stop buying new shit. The only thing that’s going to save us from ourselves is another plague. I could burn gas all day long in a TRX and it still wouldn’t come close to the frivolous emissions of the commercial plane travel or shipping. Capitalism at its core is at...

Yes. I tow a race trailer ever weekend in the summer, it was a headache just to go 70 miles with the r1t so much so that I sold it. There’s also a lot of people that just don’t care about emissions, particularly people like me who buy RAM stuff. Also, the pentastar v6 is bulletproof. This will...

I’m not so sure about that. Stopping to charge sucks, also cost per mile when using fast chargers isn’t really that advantageous compared to gas. If I can charge at home for 90% of my driving but then generate my own electricity and not have to stop to charge or deal with a trailer while...
