Just got my shipping notification email, looking forward to it. Just a psa for anyone else waiting.

Interesting, it's just on the left side. From the Ikamper site it does not look like there is any on the front/back/right side. I agree that it is tasteful, but I would still black it out like I have all of my silver letters.

I really like how there does not appear to be any external branding on the shell.

Close to you in coverage, my collision is at 1k. Central California, late 20s single guy, completely clean record, I pay $3000 a year($255/Mo). That is after shopping around after my prior insurance raised my rate from $3000 to $4000 after the first year out of nowhere.

Ordered! I remember your old store page for the gen 1 units had 2 confirmed charging pucks to purchase separately. One being the Apple one, but I can't remember what the second was and don't see it listed on the store page. Could we have a reminder of which chargers you have tested and...

Pretty much, the one tweak I would say is: Rivian likes to keep the battery at a comfortable temp to give you full performance. Depending on how cold things are it could take much longer. It will try and get to that temp every time you get in the vehicle and start driving. But the main thing...

Adding on to what Donald said. Cold weather and smaller trips will make your efficiency seem really bad. Every time you hop in and start driving the vehicle has to go through all of the battery management procedures to warm the thing up. If you do this multiple times a day this can add up as the...

I agree with the overall sentiment of wanting to distance from Tesla, but I don't feel like this hill of specific components to swap from ac/dc is worth worrying about. Anyone can produce these components, they are public. As more car manufactures swap to nacs, more suppliers will pop up or...

I'm pretty sure Rivan has said that they will be making the port themselves. I mean the specs on how to make them are public now. No reason for Rivian to have to purchase them from Tesla.

My guess is they launch R2's in 2025 just like they launched R1's in "2021". Employee deliveries in nov/dec and customer deliveries in dec/jan.

It doesn't really change anything from the current situation, you can always use a ccs -> nacs adapter to charge at EA/Rivian stations like you can now in reverse at tesla. Even if Rivian doesn't supply an adapter at launch you can always purchase one from Tesla/Third Parties like A2Z, ect.

The terminology they used was "Starting in 2025". So any date in 2025 is valid for that to be correct. Don't get your hopes up, they may not update the R1's with a nacs port until R2 comes out late next year/early 2026. Or they might just before the R2 comes out. Anything is possible and nobody...

Of the three options: Superchargers - every available superchargers for Tesla's to use, this includes v1-4 stations. Superchargers open to other EV's - Stations equipped with built in ccs adapters, these are also known as "magic dock" stations. These superchargers are open to any EV...

All fair points you bring up. My OEM 20" tires are still going strong after 22k miles, and will last for another 5-10k more. But these are at the top of my list for replacing them when that time comes, and I plan on going with 275 60 R20 when that does happen to keep the price and weight down.

This video helped me in my decision making process to answer the same question:

You are correct it is 17" to the underside of the tonneau. The height of the unit was the first thing I looked for as well. I guess you could lay it on its back as it's only 16" deep but IDK.

I'm with you. My truck was produced 1 week after they stopped making trucks with the PTC. Was removed from my configuration and they notified me afterwards. So already in the bummed camp from that, as it was one of the features that I was looking forward to having, even if it broke and I got a...

Notice the "damp cloth". The old supercharger v2 strategy was because the handles did not get cooled well enough in direct sunlight and would de rate the charging session as they were not liquid cooled at the time, so the old strategy was to get some sort of microfiber cloth, soak it in water...

Here is the thought process on how I figured it was the adapter: 1: The supercharger was had 52 stalls and was empty. 2: The cable and handle were in check for temp. 3: The adapter was much hotter then it was the other times I used it. 4: The truck was telling me that the charger was de rating...

Just to add a data point, I have the spare with kit from Rivian. I also have aftermarket jack pucks and a bottle jack. Have had my truck for a year and a half and haven't had to use it until the first hour of a 1300mi road trip I just got back from Tuesday. Driving on the highway when the truck...
