I fully expect to have a learning curve as R1S will be my first EV. Will I miss coasting, probably yes because I do it a lot (to the point I like when my dash says I'm getting 99mpg, aka I've been coasting for a while). I'll have to learn that I can't completely take my foot off like I do...
But will they fit in the gear tunnel. :CWL:
I'm assuming these would be great to go somewhere while you are plugged in slow charging (ie off to lunch or whatever). Hopefully they would charge as simple as plugging into the truck via 110v outlet.
They can build whatever toys they want...
The wiring harness is most likely for the heated rear seats. I went through the OG and didn't find anything else that it would be used for but that's my best guess.
Got the awesome chance to see them all together, for those that need help deciding. Lighting conditions were heavily overcast mid-afternoon day via S21 camera.
Thanks so much for the chance to see them all together.
The conclusion I've come to about the colors -
El Cap(closest) = shiny...
Thanks for more real world pictures. Rivian serioiusly needs to have A) better pictures that are color accurate than the ordering website B) a show room that we can see them in person for ourselves. Hopefully soon for both.
Thoughts on how to do this? Plugshare shows nothing other than a few random J1772 going US550 to US491 until Monticello, UT. 311 miles (aka not gonna make it)
Only option I see is leave Albuquerque over to Grants, 100% charge at the AE at Walmart, then squeak the 251miles up US491 miles...
WHOA - you are not helping me make up my mind. The two pics are SO different.
I've been wanting to change over from BM to FE but wasn't sure, now I'm like which one is real - I need to see this in person-
The gray appearance = stylish and sophisticated, the green appearance screams 90s...
This white makes it look so BIG. Then I realized it's a lot bigger than I'm used to with JGC. Literally longer, wider, taller.
Of course it doesn't help that my brain keeps saying the tree behind it is the spare tire like on the back of a Wrangler.
Don't even think about it, If its like most progress bars, it would end up stuck at 99% and then it wouldn't let you drive.
I guess that's better than a spinning donut though, or an hour glass.
The matte definitely grabs my vibe. It adds sophistication in my book.
I need to see ElCap with matte next to Limestone with matte to see which one is grabbing me more (don't call me an Elcap traitor, I'm just wondering).
Great shots. You're seriously making me wonder about changing config from ElCap to Limestone. Basically Dark Gray to Light Gray.
*if R1S would just show up, I wouldn't have these competing thoughts*
This definitely needs attention if it's a bug. That being said - I've seen at least 3 posts now about similar and in one the person realized they were looking out of the back (turning around) enough that their butt comes off the seat, so the sensors think they've left the vehicle somehow. The...
Yeah, R1S is panoramic all glass. I've seen posts talking of having it aftermarket tinted to avoid sun.
OC makes me think dirty/stained over the long term. If you've ever seen the blue jean stains on white leather, that's my thinking.
I'd like to see the FE in person since green really...
Help me understand your statements (I'm not challenging them). But you're saying effectively, it's against code to have anything plugged in that would draw 100% of the circuit - in your example 40A EVSE on a 40A circuit. Similar with the 50A device I linked plugged into a 50A socket, again 100%.
