I haven't given her a proper cleaning yet, just some touchless powerwashing afterwards to get off the most offensive stuff. Created some scratches from trees while rock crawling that I will need to buff out.
Our roads are getting paved this weekend, so I kind of want to wait a few weeks before...
"The distribution of the number of children per family in the United States is strongly skewed right with a mean of 2.5 children per family and a standard deviation of 1.3 children per family."
So lots of families (30-40%) could use more than 5 seats, not even including friends or extended...
I wouldn't mind getting some wider wheels with less offset if I could lock out the lower ride height settings and have the warm fuzzy that I (or software/update) wouldn't accidently switch to a lower setting.
I had the ride in rock crawl which limits the speed. The terrain wasn't really forgiving (mostly hard rock and rock dust) so didn't want to push it too much.
I thought I would buy some aftermarket offroad wheels and tires and now realize how difficult they are to find. So I hope Rivian starts...
Any Hams out there thinking or have done an install? I just received my General license and haven't had a mobile ham yet, so it is all ground zero for me.
I'de like to get on the 10M band from the R1T and have heard that can be problematic on EVs.
I do have a contact that wants to do some...
This is a Daiken Small. I should have gotten a "DLX" for thicker tailgates, not super happy with it so still looking for a solution.
You can see where the inner tailgate hits the buckles when closing. Once it even unsnapped the buckle clamp.
Not impossible to use, but not ideal either.
What is EGA?
There is a place called "Kansai Cycle Sports Center" that was a blast, probably because I had kids the right age (pre-teen). They also have camping spots (cabins) were you can spend the night with grills setup and charcoal wood ready to go. It is old and run down and has a bit of...
Guide assigned last Thursday, first call Friday (because I could not make Thursday availability) then config locked and VIN assigned later Friday. Ready for pickup today (Tuesday).
So ~3 business days. Has so far been painless, including guide contact to update insurance (I did the Rivian...
Home base was Osaka so have been more places around South/Central Japan (Kyoto/Wakayama/Nara, etc). Most of my work was in Tokyo so weekly shikansen between those two areas and Chiba (mostly just business districts). We spent one month in Okinawa and that was my favorite vacation ever...
Made it to Japan every year for over a decade until covid. I'm looking forward to returning (family is there now for the summer).
You're living the dream.
Mine is ready for pickup at SC, but trying to schedule a local delivery.
I have a VIN (under 7000) so it may be a reject. Waiting on local finance since Rivian is over 2x the interest rate I can get.
Sounds like the Austin SC is imminent which will align well with my delivery.
