    Several Concerns

    Thanks for the eleborate response. Like I said I am living off grid for quite some time and your calculations seem as theoretical as some of the range figures of EVs. A 10 KW array is 33 300 W panels. You gotta have the space to install them. I have a 4.8 KW array on my garage and on a hot Socal...

    Several Concerns

    I really do thank everybody already driving an EV for the massive info provided in this forum. It made my decision so much easier which vehicle to buy next. I have been living off the grid for more than 10 years and people who do know that the idea of substantially charging an EV from a solar...

    Official Rivian Insurance Info Announced!

    I inquired about that months ago but the answer was not specific. If the surveillance system (camera located near rear view mirror checking driver's behavior, If I am not mistaken) will be on at all times even when driving manually I will most likely skip my order. In due time I will repeat my...

    Roof Top Tents

    I know that problem, parked my Jeep outside all summer. The hardshell is too heavy to remove after every trip

    Roof Top Tents

    Highly recommend the Tepui Hardshell, automatic opening, nice ladder,, very comfortable mattress, and above all trail proven for many off road miles on my Grand Wagoneer. Heavy though, 170 lbs. I think white as seen in photo is no longer an option.

    Wish List - Rivian Adventure Network (RAN) locations

    I agree, infrastructure could be a problem. But Joshua Tree is is also a little town at the entrance to the park with Yucca Valley the next big town. An RAN in either place would serve a vast area of desert trails including Johnson Valley. I live in Pioneertown and being off grid I will be...

    Rivian Battery Poll - VOTE HERE

    I am going for the 135 because it is the only one available in the LE and with my Grand Wagoneer I am used to a 200+ mile range off and on road. To achieve that in the R1S there need to be charging stations in somewhat remote locations which I have already posted in the charging network thread...

    Wish List - Rivian Adventure Network (RAN) locations

    Totally agree with suggestions for Utah. Boulder or Escalante UT, Highpower charger absolutely needed for an "electric adventure" in the Grand Staircase/Escalante/ Capitol Reef area. Serve white spots first before putting chargers where dozens are already in place.

    It was the first and still is one of the nicest and most stylish luxury SUVs, the Jeep Grand Wagoneer. And it even drives without without Alexa. Including a '79 Cherokee Chief this '89 model is my 4th Wagoneer with lots of miles on trails. A tough competition for the R1S.
