    Cybertruck Laugh of the Day

    I find a little schadenfreude in knowing that r/CyberStuck has 208k members and Tesla has delivered about 40k to 50k CTs total (based on the vehicle counts in the various recalls).

    Purchasing Used 2023 with Only 140 miles - Bad Idea?

    If you’re going for a used one, be sure to look at the Demo Vehicles direct from Rivian. https://demovehicles.rivian.com/ These have never been sold and are either showroom, test drive, or loaner vehicles. I picked up a Dec ‘22 build in Sep ‘24. It had 107 miles on the odometer at purchase. The...

    Rivian Tax Credit Email

    When I was doing the steps to purchase my R1T in Aug 2024 (Sep 2024 delivery) and filling out items like uploading my driver's license, uploading insurance, selecting payment/loan options, one of the questions was "do you plan on claiming the tax credit?". You had to answer affirmative to that...

    Changing Drive Modes

    Correct. You are unable to change drive modes when Driver+ (Cruise control and auto-steering) is active. In addition, also having just the cruise control active also locks out changing drive modes. Suspension changes seem to only be locked out when a door (both the cabin doors and gear tunnel...

    Recent project: modifying bed for cozy stealth camping in my R1T GFC camper

    The stealth part of this setup is sleeping in the bed of the truck under the bed topper portion, leaving the tent stowed flat. Without the tent opened up, it just looks like any other vehicle parked on the side of the road or in a parking lot.

    When to pay

    The big issue with bringing a check to the delivery appointment is that Rivian requires payment 24 hours before the delivery appointment in some states (Kansas being one of them). This is likely for states where they don’t have auto dealer licenses. For Kansas, purchases are legally handled out...

    Your vehicle will come with a Rivian Portable Charger, likely located in the frunk below the false floor. https://rivian.com/gear-shop/p/rivian-portable-charger Your 50-amp RV outlet is a NEMA 14-50 outlet, which should be compatible.The portable charger (bad name since the AC charger is...

    Get your ticket to win any EV before they sell out!

    I've mentioned this on the Tesla forum in response to a previous year's raffle from CXC, but AOPA (Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association) ran an article in their magazine at one point where they tracked down the owners of their aircraft giveaways to see where they were at that point. AOPA and...

    When to pay

    I’ve posted elsewhere about them totally botching my state registration and me finally saying, I’ll register it myself. All good, but Rivian sat on the $6k refund of the sales/property tax I paid them for over two months. “You must overnight checks to us, but we’ll pay you next season, if we...

    Experience with Tesla Superchargers and Membership for road trip

    To my knowledge, there're no v2/v3 combo sites that are open to other manufacturers. This is likely done to avoid confusion. While ?you? and I can visually distinguish between a v2 and v3 pedestal and know to pick the v3 for fastest charging (in a Tesla) or potential compatibility (in a Rivian)...

    Experience with Tesla Superchargers and Membership for road trip

    If you have a specific charging station you want to use, just manually add it to your route. It will use that as a charging stop and add other stops before and after as necessary. I tend to travel like this, put my final destination address in and also manually program in the next one or two...

    Good Rivian Exposure in new Hulu Series - Paradise

    There's a whole thread on Tesla Motors Club of spotting Tesla vehicles in Movies and TV Shows. Some of them were shocking that people noticed where you see a glimpse of the vehicle in the background for only a few frames of video. It's an entertaining thread and I don't think anyone was ever...

    When to pay

    This was one of my beefs with the Rivian purchase process. I got an SMS text message from a random number - “send $75k to this routing/account number” - eventually, the same showed up on the web site, but they need to knock it off with contacting you from random phone numbers with instructions...

    Reasonable expectations for unthrottled regen?

    I took a trip to Colorado last summer in the ‘22 quad R1T and never noticed a reduction in the regen. I had seen lots of reports of this, so I was a little surprised by my experience. This trip even included eastbound on I-70 from Silverthorne to Denver. Except for that one trip, my experience...

    Stuck without drive modes.

    If you have a trailer, plug that it. It should get you out of this mode. Also, the latest software releases (2024.51.x) are supposed to have a software fix for this bug. Edit: this is a summary of the analysis in the thread that @kenyee linked to.

    Update: Georgia factory construction begins 2026, with R2/R3/R3X production in 2028 -- (article published 1/22/25)

    It's better than the $100 membership fee that Dodge is charging on the REV and Ramcharger pickups. This is a $100 fee to be allowed to order one of the first to submit an actual order for a vehicle. As they approach the delivery dates, they send you an email that you are now able to configure...

    Charging Ecoflow Delta Pro Ultra with Rivian R1T outlet

    The Anker Solix F3800 looks to have two DC inputs for charging from solar panels. Each of those are rated at 11-60 Volts DC. The manual states I would expect hooking the 60V DC input of this battery to the 400+ V DC battery output of the Rivian main battery to "release the magic smoke"...
