Show was in Winston Salem, NC . I was surprised I didn’t even win in the Other category, There was a lot of interest and questions from people but the gasoline guzzlers won the awards. With not one fast charger in my city It’s not a huge surprise an electric didn’t win anything. I know my truck...
Yes the vampire drain option cost me 1200$ for Rivian service to come out and replace the two small 12v batteries and I couldn’t even keep the old ones. He told me they needed to take them back for recycling.
Its an adventure every 200mi figuring out where the next charging station is. ? With a family of 4 and A/C running the 320mi range is not accurate. Subtract about 120mi of in the NC summer heat.
I have been wearing my wrist band since I got it in June, it is nice to have when I’m outside and don’t have my phone to unlock, or at Teakondo practice with my son and don’t want my phone on the shoe rack where anyone could takeoff with and possibly steal my truck. Would be a dumb thief since...

I have been very impressed with my truck so far it can tow all my trailers from my dump trailer loaded with 4 tons of gravel, to my flatbed trailer hauling my bobcat track loader around. I usually stay around town or 30min away in a neighboring city. I get tons of attention with people who can’t...
Same thing happened to me and with the aluminum wires used by my electrician Rivian would not warranty the charger. Luckily my electrician refunded me my 1200$ and I was able to get a new Rivian charger on EBay for 500$ new in box, and have new copper wires installed for 800$. I think Rivian...
I agree totally ? and being electric do we really need headlights burning just sitting in park? I always turn lights to parking lights only when towing one of my trailers. Maybe I might need that extra mile I save ?
We all love the headlights but can we make it easier to have them shut off automatically when we are in park? Range if pretty good but do we need headlights to stay on when door is open and sitting while truck is in park? Or every time I walk past truck and doors unlock and headlights turn on...
