I promise I'm not trying to be a dick here, but, that still doesn't invalidate what I said in the original post. You're saying that the range in current EVs is sufficient, while I'm saying that it's not. You're proving my point by saying you need to charge in anticipation of driving through the...

You’re from PDX, so you’re forgetting that it’s 40°C down here half the year lol. You lose range running the AC. I drove Tucson > PHX literally Monday for my R2 test drive and stopped at a SC for 20% of charge before returning home with about 25% battery in my Lightning. You’re also discounting...

Here in the southwest, the major cities are hours apart from each other with almost nothing in between. Phoenix to Tucson round trip is 3.75 hours, PHX > Vegas is 5 hours, Tucson to San Diego is 6.5 hours, El Paso > ABQ is 4 hours. Salt Lake > Boise is 5 hours, Vegas > Reno is 7 hours (and was...

Another thought here: Autonomy+ did nothing that I wanted it to. The biggest things I wanted Autonomy+ to do was lane change on surface streets, and auto park. Neither of those things were possible in my demo drive in Tempe. The roads in Tempe are excellent, so it wasn't a road issue. I really...

Scrolling with the wheels felt better than excellent. Definitely the best scroll wheel I’ve ever used in any product, ever. However, left and right just didn’t work consistently for me, or as responsively as I’d like. Pushing in and from behind felt somewhere in between the above 2...

Honestly, having never been in a Rivian before, I’m really disappointed in the software. Rivian assistant wasn’t working, none of the menus were intuitive (I was hunting for far too long looking for an assistant button, home button, and it just overall felt bad to use. The halo wheels were...

I refuse to watch videos with clickbait thumbnails. Dude needs to grow up.

really wish they'd let us just pick an RGB value with flake add-ins. I'd love a good bright, punchy watermelon green with red flake joke's on them, I'll just buy the default free color and paint it myself lol

I’m in the camp that I want maximum range and that looks and ride feel are irrelevant 😛 are car rims interchangeable? I’d deadass put 19” or smaller on the R2 if it meant +10% more range.

anyone care to explain why the 21" tires get the better range over the 20" on the LE? I'm trying to maximize range, so I want to get the 21" tires from the configurator, but google says that the bigger the tire, the less range...? Why aren't the 20" tires more efficient? Does it come down to the...

google says the EPA range is 315miles, but you don't even break 300. Any idea what's going on here? Do you have the lower efficiency tires installed? I am solidly getting the EPA rating out of my Lightning except on the highway, which I almost never use (drafting at 3 car lengths behind 18...

Do you use EVPlay or something completely external?

Is it not typical to use sale vehicles for test drives? Both of my previous brand new cars came with like 30 miles on them.

This👆🏽 Tesla as a brand only survived the Cybertruck and political troubles because the model 3/Y is the best selling vehicle combo on the planet. If this were Nissan or Honda, they’d be in liquidation.

Household income of 120k/year here: this car is a financial stretch for us at 57k, whereby we’d normally just get the model y or 3. If they started nickel and diming and made it 70k, both me and my husband will turn around and get Teslas instead. Them being price competitive is the only thing...

first of all, I’m sorry to everyone else in this thread, but I have to clap back at this guy: dude, the OP very clearly states that I’m looking for hardwiring advice. Don’t come in here with a bad attitude pointed towards me because I’m not taking your irrelevant advice. Nowhere in the thread...

The fact that the Rivian (or Tesla, for fairness) infotainment systems aren't 1:1 compatible (at no additional charge) with every single Siri/Google/Gemini feature is a huge problem for me. I use Siri/Google/Gemini for literally everything while driving from texting, calling, to setting...

My concern with Bluetooth is that the quality of the input/output and the time it takes to connect. Bluetooth is an old technology that should've died by now, and I would be shocked if it wasn't replaced by Wifi-direct at some point in the next decade (which is how long I plan to keep the...

I'm looking at an R2, Model Y, EX60, and whatever can tow a single horse trailer in the midsized electric segment (coming from my Lightning, which is just too big). I'd be far more happy with a small truck with a high tow rating, essentially, an R2T, but that doesn't exist anywhere, sadly. IMHO...

Can you link me to the audio splitter tech for Tesla? I'm cross shopping a Model Y, so if they can do audio splitting without any issues, I'll go with them.
