  1. R2 Competition - Kia EV3

    We leased an EV9 until R2 comes out. Great car, but hasn't come close to making me think we may want to keep it over the R2. Software isn't great, I don't think legacy automates understand how to drastically improve vehicles via OTAs. The interior is nice, but not anywhere near R1 quality...
  2. R2 Competition - Kia EV3

    Initial thoughts Good entry level car IF you never do any road tripping. 130kW charging is rough. Good range though. Quite a bit smaller than R2, about 16" less in length, 2" less in width, and 4" less in height. We have an EV9, and this interior is comparable (though probably lower quality...
  3. "Drive stalk not working" error - anyone else had it, what had to be fixed

    Ya, that would be my guess too. Hardware problems don't go away with a reset.
  4. Rivian vs deer. Repair cost?

    My guess is 4k, basing this on my repair after being rear ended and needing a new bumper.
  5. Trade in owned to lease; won't pay back difference

    Ok, but they should still send OP a check for the difference 66k trade in value ~35k towards the lease ~31k check to OP
  6. ABRP adds Rivian R2, R3 and R3X in Single, Dual, Tri Motor variants

    That does seem a little low. I'm hoping for maybe ~350-400 miles, but guessing that would be on the single motor large. We'll need the all wheel drive and I'd like the tri-motor. A tri-motor with >325miles would be realistic I hope.
  7. ABRP adds Rivian R2, R3 and R3X in Single, Dual, Tri Motor variants

    Nice find! Hoping we get some more information on configurations and options sometime early next year.
  8. I came out yesterday morning to the dreaded “immediately replace 12 V battery alert”

    I would like to know this too. We should try to put together a guide for those of us out of warranty.
  9. 2024.43.0 Update now in UAT (User Acceptance Testing)

    I do love that graph. Something like that would be great.
  10. Not sure about home charging speed?

    I think the truck is right in this case, you are just using the charger that came with the truck correct? If so max charging speed of that charger is 32 Amps, or about 7.6 kW/hr. The truck says it took on 66.5kW in just over 9 hours which is about 7.4kW/hr. Take into account some losses and...
  11. Costumes Gone… :(

    I want Christmas mode too!!!!
  12. Hitchhiking Ghosts! (HVAC Bug)

    Love that ride, but really should have known it was grinning ghosts not gritty ghosts. Maybe we can get this as a car costume for next year.
  13. Hitchhiking Ghosts! (HVAC Bug)

    Grim gritty ghosts like to socialize!
  14. Ford to Halt F150 Lightning Production

    I have heard the stuff and things industry really getting hammered.
  15. Ford to Halt F150 Lightning Production

    Ford got out to a head start and then.... did nothing They've fallen pretty far behind GM, for a while they were the leading legacy automaker in EVs, then they stopped innovating, and GM has completely blown them out of the water. Combine that with competition from Kia/Hyundai, Tesla, and...
  16. Official: Scout EV SUV & Pickup debut w/ Gas Range Extender EREV, 4x4, BOF, Lockers, Sway Bar Disconnect -- All Specs, Wallpapers, Videos

    The range extender is a big negative for me. Better than a plug in hybrid I suppose, but still a lot of added complexity for very little benefit.
  17. Anyone purchased the vehicle without test drive?

    I bought without a test drive, and before we bought the Rivian I bought a Mach-E without a test drive. Similar to you, I watch a lot of videos on YouTube and was comfortable buying without a test drive, but you're right videos aren't the same as driving. Overall, the vehicle is what I expected...
  18. Denver service center question

    No, there aren't any SCs that have R2 or R3 permanently. They've just been on tour around the country to the different SCs.
