  1. 20" Inch Toyo Open Country A/T III EV 275/65/20 116H tires review

    From the FWIW Department: Just had the tires rotated at 5,500 miles. Tread seemingly is even at 12/32 (new tread is supposedly 13.5/32). Per the vehicle, efficiency is 2.32 miles/kWh for those 5,500 miles. (This is for July-October, so warm weather driving.) Efficiency for the original...
  2. Idle fee hate

    From here on out, I guess I'll just leave my gas-powered Subaru at seemingly unused gas pumps; that wouldn't be "rude," right?
  3. Just fix the software

    In 22 months of ownership, I think I've done two hard resets and one infotainment reset. Touch screen is a half-second slow. Other than that, no software complaints.
  4. Yellowstone travel/charging advice

    There are none in Yellowstone, except for Fishing Bridge RV Park, which doesn't allow tents (including rooftop tents). In Grand Teton National Park, there's Signal Mountain Campground, which does have electric sites (and which I've used multiple times); it helps if you have a Geezer pass (62...
  5. Added 12v outlet to R1T bed.

    "Wow" again. Thank you; that pretty much convinces me to stick with the cooler.
  6. Added 12v outlet to R1T bed.

    Wow, that seems like a lot, at least relative to its published (laboratory) energy consumption of 0.43 KWH per day.
  7. Does "Waiting for Charger" stress the 12V?

    Prompted by this question, I plugged my Home Flex into my vehicle. The Rivian app now shows the vehicle is asleep even though the vehicle is waiting for the EVSE. FWIW, I've never used the scheduling function in the Rivian and only use the scheduling function in the ChargePoint app. To my...
  8. Yellowstone travel/charging advice

    I have NOT used it, but I've noticed that its Plugshare ratings are a little better than when I was in the area last year. Administratively, it's in the same boat as the Ashton and Driggs chargers (pre-emptively go to Rionadi web site, create account, enter credit card info, etc.). (My...
  9. Cost to swap tires

    Rivian labor is $220/hr. Respectfully, go to a tire shop if you want tire shop prices. I think my Discount Tire would charge $25/tire.
  10. Yellowstone travel/charging advice

    This is on Plugshare (I've used it). There are others on the outskirts of Ashton (which I've also used) and Island Park (which I have not). Enel X is no longer in business in North America and these chargers are now connected to Rionadi, administratively. Payment is via the Rionadi web site...
  11. 20" Inch Toyo Open Country A/T III EV 275/65/20 116H tires review

    If you haven't already, be sure to do a web search for a better price before you buy. I don't know that there's a better price out there right now, but I found them for $347 each about five weeks ago, and Discount Tire matched that price. Edit: I'm going to send you a link (and a phrase to...
  12. 20" Inch Toyo Open Country A/T III EV 275/65/20 116H tires review

    FWIW: No rubbing with the 20" Pirellis (22,000+ miles) and no rubbing with the Toyos (275/65R20 116H) so far (1,300+ miles). That said, I don't think I ever put the vehicle in Sport mode until 5 minutes ago. When stationary and in lowest (Sport) mode, no rubbing on the outside of the Toyos; I...
  13. Check out the updated RAN map at the Rivian website!

    Aberdeen is not in Oregon (it's in Washington). Maybe you're thinking of Astoria.
  14. Old square bar roof rack: Adapt to mount to Rivian crossbar via clamp or t track

    If I understand correctly (and I may not, so don't rush out and buy this), I was directed to a clamp that fits the Rivian crossbars by a dude at the local Rack Attack. It's not something they carried, but he gave me the part number, website, etc., where I could find it. I use it only for an...
  15. Jack Pucks advice?

    I didn't have a regular jack puck until recently, so I couldn't try (and yes, the vehicle was in highest off-road mode). Main point: Continue to carry the scissor jack, despite the ridicule directed at it (but don't crawl under the vehicle, of course!).
  16. Jack Pucks advice?

    At least for the R1T: The problem with the XL puck is that if your tire is completely deflated and you're using a bottle jack (similar to mine), you cannot get the jack + XL puck under the jack point of the vehicle as the vehicle is too low to the ground. My suggestion: If you're getting only...
  17. Charge port height from ground?

    R1T, 275/65 20 tires, Standard height: about 35" to approximate center of charge port. Vehicle kneels for no man, so no help there.
