    PSA for EVolveNY network

    After reading a thread where a forum member paid close to $.90 per kilowatt hour at a Pilot/FlyingJ facility I want to let anyone that might be traveling through NY that New York has its own state-sponsored charging network called EVolveNY that you might not see in the Rivian app or Rivian...

    New York Sold: FS: NIB A2Z NACS Adapter - $225 shipped

    Due to a duplicate shipping label error I ended up with two of these so offering one up for someone who really needs one for an upcoming road trip.

    First Ford NACS adapters started shipping

    According this Mach-E forum post, adapter shipment emails are going out. Seems like Ford has their act together so far. EDIT: While the Mach-E forum is now buzzing with chatter, it seems the only two that got the email were in the beta test/influencer group who have to return their...

    A day in the life...or a deep dive into R1 efficiency

    TL;DR - idle power and some things in the trip odometer are not as they appear. So this trip actually started on Thursday evening when I charged to 70%. The R1S sat on Friday and today I was tasked with running some pre-holiday errands. So how much range did I lose before getting started...

    Looking for a few new My Rivian app testers

    I have a 'hobby' iPhone app called My Rivian (yeah, I gave that one a lot of thought) that I can use a couple of new testers. Have an iPhone running iOS 17? Have a Rivian? Then you potentially can join the testing pool. So how does this work? What is My Rivian? Just an app that logs your...

    Just how much does elevation change affect your efficiency?

    The results of a trip to the local transfer station at a higher elevation (~750') was not exactly unexpected but when I looked at the details I found the ride back was free. Here is the overview of the trips out and back: Not great efficiency but with temps near freezing (seat and steering...

    Preview of my iOS Rivian trip / charge app

    Time to try out the iOS 17 and Xcode 15 betas and coming soon to your iPhone is a trip/charge logger à la TeslaFi (for those that might have owned a Tesla).

    New York Sold: Sale PENDING - Set of like-new mint 20" AT tires (Finger Lakes)

    Just back from the SC after getting my 21" road tires installed and no plans (for now) for needing the OE 20" AT tires. Odometer at the SC was 3228 miles and there are no blemishes or curb rash - mint except for the ~3K miles of tire wear. My trusty digital caliper says just shy of 11/32" of...
