  1. Rivian charger or Tesla universal charger?

    Rivian is switching to NACS on future vehicles as is every manufacturer pretty much. So Tesla Charger hands down as it is more future proof without the need for an adaptor like the Rivian Charger will need for even future Rivian vehicles.

  2. Charging at 28-29 mi/hr 11.6kw -- issue or glitch?

    Donā€™t turn down the amps unless you donā€™t have the right breaker and wiring to your charger to handle the load. It is charging like it should. You probably have low electric useage in the house at this point and have just above 240 volts coming into the charger which is acceptable . Likely...

  3. What kind of receptacle is this?

    Didnā€™t see that right angle on bottom pin due to the dark pic. Looks like maybe a 14-30

  4. What kind of receptacle is this?

    14-50

  5. MidnightRivian's R1S Tesla Charger test session hitting speeds @ 217 kW using A2Z adapter / plug and charge feature

    The Anti Elon clan would be best to not accept a Rivian provided adaptorā€¦. Rivian has to pay Tesla for those adaptors and every ā€œfreeā€ adaptor sent to Elon haters will be money stuffed into Elonā€™s pocket. Me personally would rather have Elon take Rivianā€™s money then some other half baked EV...

  6. Rivian temporarily pausing R1 configurator due to production line shutdown

    With like every refresh from any auto manufacturer you get a msrp price hike and some very minor incremental vehicle changes. Rivian will be the same

  7. Let's talk Tesla Supercharger parking etiquette...

    Was charging my Tesla at a supercharger I frequent with Magic docks. Not a busy one as the only chargers I typically use are in BFE as I have a level 2 at home and typically only stay at lodging accomdations that offer level 2 charging. But at this particular charger 3 stalls could charge a...

  8. Cost was a reason for charge port location on R2 / R3 + other info in RJ interview with Electrek

    Having the charge port on the passenger side rear eliminates a lot of DCFC that you can use. Drivers side rear opens up a bunch of DCFC opportunities. Itā€™s almost if Rivian intends to sell a lot of these they are intending and intentionally trying to create chaos in the US DCFC charge...

  9. Tesla engineer urges Rivian to move charge port location on R2, R3, R3X for Supercharger access

    Own both a Tesla and a Rivian. Many that think they are going to screw over a Tesla owner by taking up 2 charging stall are likely in for some frustrations as well if not way more then a Tesla driver. When a Tesla is charging it is taking up 2 charging stalls for something like a Rivian...

  10. 8 tire rotation

    Swapped the Nokian snows out today and got the factories on today. No issues on lifting the whole r1s and it was nice to be able to clean some stuff up. Notice one screw/bolt missing for a front fender well liner. So going to have to see about finding a replacement that matches up.

  11. Bravo Rivian but now R1 is OLD.

    If some of the wild predictions of the forum comes through my chances are good with scoring a low mile used 2025/26 R1S max pack in 2026/27 for say less then a R2 performance when owners ā€œupgradeā€

  12. Rivian Pausing Georgia Plant

    Georgia was dumb from the beginning cause they hadnā€™t even produced a vehicle and were going to spend billions to not produce any vehicles for many years. They would be better to turn it into an offroad park until they run out of room for tents at Normal and can turn profits. If they lose out...

  13. R2 Price, Specs, Dimensions leaked!! $47500, 0-60 3 sec, 330 miles range

    I think the cybertruck had that disclaimer as did the Lightning. Still doesnā€™t help solve the complaining that will ensue when a base model R2 will come in closer to $60k in 2 or 3 years when Georgia gets in production. My R1S wasnā€™t price locked until the outrage ensued that cost Rivian...

  14. R2 Price, Specs, Dimensions leaked!! $47500, 0-60 3 sec, 330 miles range

    Not sure why manufacturers put a price on a vehicle so far out. They should put a price of TBD so as when they come into production at a lot more expensive price tag they donā€™t get a black eye for not delivering on price.

  15. āš”ļø Rivian announces: March Tesla Supercharger access & free NACS adapters!

    How would you terrorize them. Take up all the charging stalls so no one can charge?

  16. Rivian Layoff 10% Staff and Lowers Production Forecast for 2024

    Doubt Rivian has the capitol to get Georgia off the ground. Probably needs to look for partners, such as Maybe BYD. Rivian could offer BYD an easier route into the US. But before Georgia it would be nice to see Normal near capacity which I thought it was suppose to be able to build 150k...

  17. Rivian Layoff 10% Staff and Lowers Production Forecast for 2024

    The IRA really hurt Rivian. Rivian would be the only one selling a pickup currently with $7500 credit which is a good selling point. Itā€™s going to be a tough storm to weather for Rivian with lots of options.

  18. State EV Fees -

    I was going to suggest Montana registration via a LLC. May come to that point for me but Idaho is still doing OK on ev feeā€¦. Itā€™s not outrageous yet

  19. Bricked

    I was always under the assumption that the 12 volt battery in the Rivian is used to close some contacts in the electrical system to utilize the hv battery via a dc to dc 12 volt converter to charge the 12 volt. Rivianā€™s 12 volt battery is pretty tiny compare to a regular car battery on amp...

  20. Bricked

    If you have a working car in the garage trapped could you pull that battery out of the car and take it to the back of your Rivian and do the jump procedure? Jump packs are just batteries. Maybe start the car in the garage for 15 minutes or so prior to removing battery to make sure itā€™s...
