My 2019 Tesla MX chargers faster
This...using Miles added is such a terrible comparison for vehicles and charging speed. Its like going to a gas station and saying I am pumping in XX miles vs YY Gallons. it has so many dependencies that do not align correctly. I had this with Ford when they changed their app to show Miles... -

Sent a note yesterday in reference with my order. happy to take this to a direct conversation. -
Warning - Safety Defect Found with Lectron NACS Adapter
I would say A2Z likely has a similar issue here. The locking mechanism seems to require the user to engage it vs disengage to remove. I have yet to get the A2Z connector to actually lock, but I have not tried to unplug it while in use, so hopefully I am missing something. I will say it has... -
Rivian offering preorder price difference vouchers for remaining price protected pre-order holders
having just had ours officially ruled a complete loss, due to an accident, the new pricing is definitely tough. Doing the math, pre 3/1/22 was a 21.7% difference for me on the R1S. Luckily for me I had new car replacement, so it did pay off. Now, looking to decide on a new R1S or something else. -
Article: How do I get free Rivian-approved NACS DC adapter? Shipping in April!
I have done this for my Lightning as my early order of the adapter was met with a June Delivery. I am not sure when Rivian will get to everyone. A2Z was 3 weeks out for shipping as of Feb 29. I have yet to receive my shipped confirmation. I am sure they are much further out as of now. On a... -
Texas SOLD: Adventure High Tech Rivian charging pad for sale
Great addition to the R1S, Rivian over engineered the charging pad. We had difficulty getting it to work. Installed this in the Rivian and it was an awesome addition. My wife loved the little storage box. Our Rivian was totaled after being run off the road by an 18-wheeler. Everyone was ok...- Flypony53

Texas SOLD: Brand new, never used Rivian Mobile Charger and other accessories
Our Rivian was totaled after we were run off the road by an 18-wheeler. Everyone was well protected, Rivian SOS connected after the accident. All in all, great experience. Selling everything for $400. Mobile Charger that came with the R1S never used ($400) Air Compressor line, used 1 time to...- Flypony53

⚡️ Rivian announces: March Tesla Supercharger access & free NACS adapters!
I would doubt it. I tried using the Tesla CCS Adapter they have for use at Tesla chargers with my Ford Charge Station Pro and it did not work. Feels like it is similar, but not sure it translates exactly. I did use the Tesla J1722 adapter (slightly modified due to the FCSP having a CCS style... -
⚡️ Rivian announces: March Tesla Supercharger access & free NACS adapters!
What you are missing in my point is they have been all over bragging about being first, how all owners now have access, etc. They obviously were not prepared. Their site crashed with only 150k eligible customers based on number of Mach-E and lightnings sold. Opening up the network is useless... -
⚡️ Rivian announces: March Tesla Supercharger access & free NACS adapters!
This... I have a Lightning as well. The site crashed in the morning and when I was finally able to order, it was June. Very frustrating as Ford is banging their chests, meanwhile, all of the influencers all received theirs early. So, Ford comes out looking great, meanwhile, I have to hope... -
Anyone using ElectraFi ?
I have it with my Rivian, also use Teslafi with my Model Y. I love the data and the view. Electrafi worked without issue from day one, up until the moment our R1S was totaled. I did just notice a flaw in the data that incorrectly records the max speed. At times, looks like my wife was... -
Hard to say goodbye!
definitely has been my concern on ICE. We just took the drive again today to go see her parents (in my Lightning). Saw where she hit, an ICE would have rolled most definitely after striking the curb and sliding through the ditch afterward. The Center of gravity on these cars are so much...- Flypony53

Hard to say goodbye!
Appreciate everyone focusing on her safety. That is the first thing we must look at with a vehicle. I urge folks to always think of the safety of a vehicle prior to any other function. The Rivian SOS system engaged and reached out, this is an incredible comfort for me. Unfortunately, she did...- Flypony53

Hard to say goodbye!
TLDR;; RIP Led Tasso (The name of our R1S, for Ted Lasso fans, this pays homage to the more agressive, angry version of Ted - somewhat how we felt with the performance of the R1S, just a beast). So, first let me start with everyone is ok with no injuries and no other vehicles damaged. With...- Flypony53

FYI: R1S trade-in quote from Rivian = $69.5K
I would agree. Also, OP likely purchased with original pricing on the LE, so ~13% depreciation for the 22k miles. Gone are the days of reselling for a profit...Look at my $90k+ Ford Lightning Platinum. Best offer I got last summer with less than 10k miles was less than $70k. I could have... -
Is servicing going to be the downfall to Rivian?
I had the same with my Ford Lightning delivery, Ford would not fix some of the minor alignment issues. Tesla had similar issues, which for me, at my service center have been worked out. So far with Rivian, my service experience with our R1S has been mostly positive. The only issue I have had...- Flypony53

Just got this update notice…
I would rather that than bricking it. Also, better than ford who disables 1-pedal driving, rear seat monitoring and turns on the propulsion sound after every update for me. Nearly rear ended a car in the service lane when I picked it up from service last week at Ford. And seriously, who... -
Lucid Gravity Reveal
I struggle with the Lucid Vehicles in general. I think from the B- Pillar forward, they are great. Somewhere before the C-Pillar, it loses it for me. In this image, it looks like they said, oh crap, the third row does not fit. Lets add another foot to the back. I wanted to like it before I...- Flypony53
