I can't believe I'm the first to post this.... Judging from that outfit, I'm afraid your R1T wasn't the only thing rear-ended that morning.

I am now at 550+ miles on the new rubber. First ~300 miles, the efficiency was about 1.7 - 1.8. Lately (and this could be somewhat due to warmer temps in springtime) I'm running in the 2.0 - 2.3 range. Obviously, zero wear thus far.

I am in the auto parts industry. @ukyank is 100% correct. Until Annex 1 is published, it is difficult to know for sure. My personal guess is that the number HTS codes subject to these additional tariffs will be significant. At a minimum, I suspect all of HTS code 8407, 8408, 8483...

My VD has skyrocketed on this update. Gen 1 R1T also.

I got my Defenders last week from TireRack. I am in NC, and they shipped from a Georgia warehouse with 1-day delivery. My road experience thus far is still < 100 total miles.

I have a deposit on one too --- but have about a 20% expectancy that it'll make it to market. That being said, it fits the 'use case' in my family really well, and solves the 'too big' issue that we often have with our R1T (G1)

I'll simply say "YES!" This full aligns with my L3 charging 'preferences'. ;)

275/55R-21 Michelin Defender LTX M/S2 ordered from TireRack, delivered to my office. Installed today -- in my warehouse by a mobile installer. How did I live almost 60 years on this planet and not utilize mobile tire installation before? Holy smokes, it's the bee's knees. Super easy...

Don't like it? Don't buy it. Pretty simple.

Yikes! If that was me (or my wife) you can bet we'd need to re-upholster the seats and do a load of laundry quickly.

If you're wondering how 'tough' they are (I have both), the Rivian one has survived a 5' drop (with additional lateral acceleration) onto hard concrete in a pouring rainstorm - and still works flawlessly. My son was detaching it from a Tesla station last month in the pouring rain. As he slid...

I'll probably get flamed for this.... but I think with all of these 'rear end' collisions, maybe the brake light orientation on the Rivian isn't so great. On my R1T, the upper brake lights are fine, but the little ones on the actual rear corners of the car seem far too small. I realize...

So. Much. Love. ! :clap:

How much tread is left on your 21's? At what pressure?

same on my R1T. I thought it was my imagination --- but indeed, it is 'slower' and I seem to need two tries to get the darn garage door to operate. I'm on the cusp of just grabbing my old 100% reliable clicker thing and sticking it on the visor. I think Rivian sometimes invents...

Good grief, I find Sandy Munro difficult to watch. And that's the nicest way to put it.

I charged several times over the Xmas holiday on a roadtrip. As long as there was nobody waiting (and I would have moved instantly), I used the handicap charger stall because it was wider and allowed the Rivian to charge without disrupting the other Teslas. I never left the truck, so I'd be...

So while I do think the R1T is too big for most of my normal daily driving, @Cycliste makes a good point. If you enjoy human-powered transportation, the #1 feature of the R1T is being able to sit on the gear tunnel doors and get shoes on/off for riding. I cannot possibly count the number...

I have a T -- frankly, it is too big for what I really need. Wife + corgi + road bikes hanging off the back. It's a right PITA to park it 'downtown' in my little hamlet, let alone in our public parking decks. On the other hand... we took a holiday road trip last week (our son was home...
