  1. Looking for home solar advice

    +1 to finding a couple local companies and get 2-3 quotes. Ask the same questions to each one and see what they say. Then follow up with them a day or two later with more questions that you think of. The honest ones that care about you as a customer will take the time to explain everything...
  2. Iowa anyone?

    I did PPF on the front only, mostly because I do a lot of highway driving, so I know I'm going to get hit by anything and everything.
  3. No plates, Day 12 using rental car.

    I'm in the same boat about a week behind you. I notarized the Power of Attorney 4 weeks after delivery. 4 weeks later they tell me they had tried to renew my expired registration from my trade in, so they were essentially starting all over again. Last week my guide said it was "processing"...
  4. Iowa anyone?

    Someone in a Launch Green R1T just saw me at the Ankeny charger, but I was on the phone so I couldn't get out to say hi. I also saw a Compass Yellow this morning in Des Moines. I think there's at least 10 of us around Des Moines. I've seen 2 red, 2 blue, 2 white, 1 El Cap, 1 Black, 1 yellow...
  5. Dust buildup from driving on gravel roads

    Yeah, mine look like that every day. Do you use any tire shine foam/cleaner? I'm thinking that's what makes the dust stick to the tires more for me.
  6. Dust buildup from driving on gravel roads

    Lol. That picture was after the first week!
  7. Dust buildup from driving on gravel roads

    I drive 6-10 miles on gravel daily depending on which way I go that day. So it's unavoidable.
  8. Dust buildup from driving on gravel roads

    This is exactly what's happening. I thought about trying to plug those holes, but the openings for the tailgate hinges are much bigger and probably contribute most of it.
  9. Dust buildup from driving on gravel roads

    I haven't seen too many mentions about driving on gravel roads, so I want to see who else is experiencing these issues. I saw @jjswan33 mention it in another thread, so hopefully he can comment. I have 20" All Terrain tires, so the truck is fantastic on my gravel road. I actually can't wait...
  10. Show off your Level 2 Home Charger installs here

    Haven't seen any installs in a barn, so here's one. I had a Tesla Wall Connector hooked up, so I just removed that and installed the Rivian Wall Charger on the same wiring. Fairly simple! Ditto on the comment that I wish it would stop blinking! Come on @Rivian, just have it turn the light...
  11. Iowa anyone?

    Same.
  12. Iowa anyone?

    On another note, we should have a gathering around Des Moines soon. I'll be going to the Ames EcoFair in October. Anyone know of any other good events around the metro that would be good to meet up for?
  13. Iowa anyone?

    A few updates from the past couple of weeks that might interest people. Took some pics of Putco scanning the bed - that was pretty cool! Saw the 2nd red R1T in Ankeny last week. And saw the ISU solar car and then drove my Rivian through the crowded street at the state fair to many oogles and...
  14. Iowa anyone?

    Just talked with James and made an appointment for Monday. Should be pretty cool!
  15. Cracked Windshield

    Yes, mine should be covered completely under insurance. Just waiting on Rivian Insurance/Nationwide to reimburse me now. Not sure why the Rivian service center can't bill the Rivian insurance directly, but apparently they can't. It was $1,800 for the KC service center to do it. I've never...
  16. Iowa anyone?

    Hi Mark, I would be happy to bring mine. You can send me details here or through Facebook EV club. - Andrew Fisher
  17. Iowa anyone?

    I hate I-80... caught a rock, probably from the dump trailer 2 lanes over.
  18. Cracked Windshield

    Just caught a rock in mine yesterday. While driving around town, nothing on the 1,500 mile road trip I just did, of course. I figured having Rivian insurance would make things easy, but having to call Nationwide, then go through Safelite was super annoying. I'm 3 hours from Kansas City, so...
  19. Iowa anyone?

    I saw someone had made a custom one also. I think I'll just keep my $80 and zip tie the bracket to the tow hook.
  20. Iowa anyone?

    The Senate passed it, but not the House. Check the last sentence: " The bill now heads to the House for consideration. " ...edit - @travbz814 beat me to it
