  1. Video: R2 owner demonstrating charging session at Tesla Supercharger

    BP Pulse uses the HYC400 chargers, just like Ionna and Mercedes. They also support NACS and CCS1.
  2. Anyone have R2 highway driving range to share? (I'm sure the color you picked looks great)

    I never feel that I lose range running the AC, it is running all the time to cool the battery. Turning off the AC to the passengers saves nothing. I go Phoenix (far west valley, so ~140 miles) to Tucson at least once a year and have done it in 5 different EVs. One charging stop for the round...
  3. Anyone have R2 highway driving range to share? (I'm sure the color you picked looks great)

    You are always pulling a trailer? My Hummer is around 1.7-1.9m/kwh. The IQ got 2.1m/kwh on our trip and much of the highway driving was 75-85mph.
  4. Anyone have R2 highway driving range to share? (I'm sure the color you picked looks great)

    We got an Excalade IQ Sport recently and took it on a 2400 mile road trip, easily gets over 400 miles at 75mph, and peak charging is at 375kw.
  5. Question about using cruise control while towing

    GM does hands free towing, they only disable automatic lane changes. They also have a great trailer blind spot camera view, based on inputting the trailer dimensions into the towing app. It paints a big red box on the road where the trailer will be during a lane change.
  6. AT&T brings 5G connectivity to Rivian R2

    All the major car makers use AT&T, otherwise they would be out of business, their service sucks. GM upgraded their AT&T service from 4G to 5G in 2024, not sure why this is newsworthy.
  7. Obligatory Sold My Rivian Post

    These were the two main reasons I traded my R1T in on an Escalade IQ, software bugs and ADAS. The adaptive cruise control became unusable for me, could not pass a large vehicle without disengaging the system. I quit using it for road trips because of this. GM software is very solid and of...
  8. Current charging costs?

    I have APS, and because of that stupid demand charge, I end up at .11 average, even though my peak usage is about 6% of the total. Then I have a $100 per month of adjustment fees. It is crazy.
  9. 30 amp campground charging question

    GM sells a TT-30 pigtail for their portable adapter that will do 24A at 120V. Since this plug is 120V there is no need to dial down the charge rate in the truck, it should default to 12A.
  10. How long do you plan to keep your current Rivian?

    The bed on the Hummer is 5 feet, the Sierra is 5 ft 9 in. They kept the Hummer shorter because of the off road capability.
  11. How long do you plan to keep your current Rivian?

    The Hummer and R1T are actually the same length, the difference is in the width.
  12. Arizona Four 21" Road Wheels with TPMS and Aero Covers, $100 for the set

    I am assuming he would have the tires taken off before boxing them.
  13. Arizona Four 21" Road Wheels with TPMS and Aero Covers, $100 for the set

    I live on the west side near Luke Air Force Base.
  14. Arizona Sold: Four 21" Road Wheels with TPMS and Aero Covers, $100 for the set

    I am in the Phoenix area. These still have the tires mounted but they are completely shot (3/32), one is flat. One of the wheels has some curb rash. Just want to get them out of my garage.
  15. Rivian Vehicle Service Contract - does the pricing seem high?

    Yes it is, and also the maps are entirely Google, same as the phone app and works better than the Rivian Google implementation. And all those apps, including the maps, update independent of any OTAs. A couple of examples of better map implementation: 1) GM maps have ALL charging stations, and...
  16. Rivian Vehicle Service Contract - does the pricing seem high?

    My wife wanted a three row SUV for hauling around the grandkids and we have been considering the Escalade for about 6 months. The second row has the captain seats with the walk through in the middle, plus those seats fold up for easy entry. Also the GM software is very stable, I have had a...
  17. Rivian Vehicle Service Contract - does the pricing seem high?

    Escalade IQ Sport. I was able to get it 12K under MSRP.
  18. Rivian Vehicle Service Contract - does the pricing seem high?

    I just traded in my 2022 R1T with 52k miles and got 38k for it at a Cadillac dealer. KBB was showing an average trade in value of 40k, but mine had a cracked windshield and worn out tires.
