I bet the 50' run was more than half the total. it's a long pull with heavy gauge wire and copper ain't cheap. not much you can do about that.

If you want to pull more than 24 amps I'd upgrade your main panel to 200 amps. You shouldn't L2 charge an EV on a 100 amp panel unless you're not pulling much power. a 200 amp main panel would allow you to put a 60 amp sub-panel in the garage and charge at 48 amps if you don't have any other...

mayb maybe if you tinted it topside you could theoretically accumulate enough IR in the glass to create a new problem. But light of all wavelengths is designed to pass through glass. if anything, none of the other scattered light from the front windshield or side windows will now go through...

VION did a nice job with these. I don’t know for sure, but it wouldn’t surprise me at all if they released something similar for R2 once there are more units out there and they can get measurements and do fitment testing.

Received a set of the latest @VION reflective roof sunshades that cover all three rows (older generation was black only and only covered first and second rows). With dogs regularly in the back and summer now reaching record highs in NJ the timing couldn’t be better. I do have the...

seems unusual but the “vegan leather” is a petroleum product so it does require more attention than regular leather in my experience. maybe try to clean it off frequently? in terms of the damage, it shouldn’t happen with regular use but wear is a thing and putting other substances on it is not...

that’s supply side. Tesla also has plenty of excess supply capacity as do GM and others. Question is how demand ramps/caps out - see R1.

I think Rivian can do 50k units in 2027 or 2028 getting to 75-100k units. Real target is Rav4 and CR-V buyers more so than Model Y. Both have off-roading presumption, not so much Model Y. But Rivian needs to get profitable on R2 and R1 by Q2 2027 or they go under and the software JV just gets...

Side note. Ocean Coast and Coastal Cloud are definitely NOT white. Both are a light to medium grey that can appear more whiteish on camera.

Gen 2 Large pack was downsized to 109 kwh

for road trips and adventuring AM/FM radio just plain work. nearly everywhere you’ll get some signal.

...and also generating billions in one-time services revenue that might help Rivian show a book profit, but any analyst trying to dissect the health of the underlying automotive operations would back these revenues out as non-recurring.

no harm done, just trying to help the OP and anyone else considering Rivian’s light interiors. We’re good :)

Rivian needs to push to get profitable in Q4 26. If they can sell 10+K R2's, of the highest priced trims, in Q4 and are still losing money they are going to have a problem with viability.

AM/FM radio delete, guessing for cost savings, was a strange move. There are a lot of places where cell signals are not strong or reliable enough and getting weather/safety information via radio is helpful to essential. You'd think RJ loaded up on SpaceX stock to push people to Starlink or...

Trade? LOL

at a 10% reservation to filled order rate, which would be quite high, that represents 10,000 units. And it's quite possible, if not likely, that the majority of those will be for the Standard and Premium trims. rough mathing, if 30% fulfill for Launch Edition, which would be incredible high...

I own a 2023 BMW X5 M (definitely NOT electric) and have owned a few X3's and X5's in the past. For fit, finish, comfort, quiet and reliability in the first five years it's tough to beat BMW. But they don't age well. I've also owned some BMW's that were 10+ years old and BMW's use of plastic...

Within the next two weeks we should all theoretically have some expectation (guessing which quarter) of potential delivery. Once the first 5,000 units have been customer delivered - and we're not nearly there yet - we'll start seeing some secondary market action opening up. Guessing first...

LOL, inflation happened. Blame both political parties for recklessly printing dollars like they were going out of style to cover massive deficits since no one wants to reduce Federal spending - not enough votes in being fiscally responsible. As for Cybertruck range, don't be duped by the media...
