Has anyone driven it like really really hard?

I think the best we can hope for is a tire that doesn’t suck at all of these. Snow requires soft rubber and lots of edges to grab the snow. Great range requires a firm tire and smooth treads.

Materials are only part of the picture. It depends on how many man hours (or robot hours) to build one, and how that compares to Gen 1 or Gen 2 Labor is a huge part of the cost of car building.

That’s what the Golf Tunnel is for.

I’ll give another vote for the Lomax

WTB 20” wheels w/o tires for Gen 1 R1T. I will p/u locally or pay shipping

This is borderline range for my R1T QM. I live in the mountains so mileage is more impacted, and snowy roads make it worse. 10 degrees is not unusual here, and easily costs me 25-30% of max range, if the roads are clear. Set up charging to finish just before you leave in the a.m.. It will warm...

Mine arrives tomorrow. Vin 22xxx. R1T delivered 8/23.

Use Driver+ in stop and go traffic. It is much easier and smoother. It won’t take long to prefer high regen after you learn to feather it.

Pretty thick with Riv’s in Park City. Every color and type. Three on my block! My club has six level 2 chargers, and last week there were 6 Rivians in them, and I wasn’t one of them. Shoulda took a pic. Next time.

Since Rivian knows where we are at all times they are working on an auto-flash of the headlights. Should be on the next update.

Running boards will help

Nah, don’t see it your way at all. I’ve used it for a year now, and while it is not perfect, neither is Google Maps. For a while I would use both, to see which I preferred, the result was a tie. I have an Ionic 5 as well, and though it has its own maps, it also has CarPlay. I can tell you it is...

I get nothing but positive comments about “Blew Bayou”. Ruby loves it too.

I’m thinking Ford Pinto. Glad it does not have a gas tank in the rear!

They were getting twice that range on the Harley electric bikes in “Long Way Up”.

As a stockholder (and R1T owner) I have always considered Rivian’s “stack” to be worth at least as much as their fiercely loyal owners and their elegant design. If they are acquired by VW that goes out the window. Rivian’s best option for long term survival/success is to be able to license their...

What did the powder coating cost? Looks good.
