The Lightning was my previous reference point, but they're repeatedly raised prices though, so right now that's $63k for an XLT. The other perspective would be the premium vs something more directly comparable, like a Ranger or a Tacoma. Right now let's say it is +$20k over a decently equipped...
Wasn't that lack of demand based on folks configurations who already plunked down a $1k (or more) deposit? Little skewed. The only reason I have my R1T now was because of the deals to clear out the 23/24s ahead of Gen2. I can assure you there's interest out there in cheaper trims, especially for...
I would also suggest you look at your local electric utility provider's site, they may offer rebates on particular models. I recently got a chargepoint for $300 from mine
What was the pricing? The non-EA one in WA I went to was $0.29/kwh, but only peaked at 105kW. Decent deal if you need dcfc and plan on shopping but I'd rather pay the higher EA price for faster charging on a real roadtrip.
For the Ridgefield, WA one they definitely thought of this, the spots were right next to the gas station. But that was a brand new warehouse, retrofitting might be more limiting in where they can place them.
Good to see Costco moving forward with more charging. They used Electric Era for an install here in WA, got to try it out over the holidays. Pricing was great, tap to pay (no app), speeds could have been better though...
If anything I'd say the myth is around the fact that either way you'll use nearly the same amount of electricity, it just only makes a difference if you care whether that's coming from your house (which may have a time of use billing where it isn't advantageous) or from your battery (negatively...
I didn't see it in the app, but on the website it'll say if it is Rivian vehicles only. Not the best, but can be looked up https://rivian.com/experience/charging#ran
Bend (well technically more Redmond/Eagle Crest) was the first trip I took my new R1T on last summer. Need to go back and hit up more trails. Love it out there.
Key context...
"The Pentagon designation does not directly affect CATL's and Tencent's ability to do business in the US but serves as a warning for US businesses that their association with the companies may bar them from future defense contracts."
The "promise" by Tesla and all these automakers was that switching to their plug would open up thousands of new chargers for everyone, they failed to mention the thousands more that would never work, which does nothing to simplify the confusing state of charging. There's only 1 V3 out of the...
Ditto, it used 4% battery to run our big french door fridge + a few misc things for the 24 hours we were without power. If you are going to find yourself in this situation highly recommend a 10 or 12 gauge extension cord reel with multiple plugs, like this...
What you are describing just sounds like this list? https://www.irs.gov/credits-deductions/manufacturers-and-models-for-new-qualified-clean-vehicles-purchased-in-2022-and-before
Their question makes it sound like you bought something not on the list of approved manufacturers.
Looks like PG&E have steadily been increasing rates? Up to $0.40/$0.50/kWh https://www.pge.com/content/dam/pge/docs/account/rate-plans/residential-electric-rate-plan-pricing.pdf
Took delivery in June, install originally scheduled for October with some other work, then got a call a week or so before saying they didn't have those harnesses. Couldn't give me a new date but hinted at no sooner than Jan/Feb.
The lease 'deal' comes down to length of the lease, the rent charge/money factor, and residual value. (you should probably share those values so future folks can compare) Paying more toward the lease upfront doesn't necessarily net you better overall terms. However, between the tax credit and...
UWB, would that mean this is for Gen2 only? I am one of the ones who will never give up having a fob, but would like one that's more reliable if possible...
