    Planning upcoming road trip from Southwest Florida to South New Jersey

    If you are going up I-95 Circle K has chargers in Fayetteville and Dunn in NC. My experience with Circle K has been good. Chargers are new and don't show up in most apps. Be sure to download the app beforehand. I generally pick out all my charging options along my desired route ahead of time...

    Rivian service every bit as bad as people say

    Not my experience. Always been top notch and extremely helpful.

    Using Rivian as power supply during hurricane?

    I also live in a hurricane prone area. Here is my plan - I plug 2 extension cords in the truck and run them into the house. I plug one into the refrigerator. The other cord I will use on whatever I need first - usually that is to make coffee for my wife. I have some batteries that I can plug...

    Can't imagine a worse car-buying experience

    My experience was nothing like that. The guy who delivered my truck spent about 2 hours with me going over everything and then went on a test drive with me. Best car buying experience I ever had.

    Eclipse + Superchargers + Rivian = Chaos

    We did same thing - had to drive through WV - there are zero fast chargers in the state that I could find.

    Help - Center & Lower console organizer recommendation

    I agree about the BestEVMod lower console organizer with cupholders. Got it on Amazon. I really find it useful.

    Bi-Directional Charging

    So you are saying I can connect a 240V inverter to my R1T, then connect the inverter to a transfer switch. Does the 240V inverter connect to the truck via the 12V outlet or some other method? Would love to see more details on this setup - not real familiar with 240V inverters.

    How do I take my phone out of the Rivian while leaving passengers inside?

    I feel your pain. Have same experience when driving my wifes Subaru!

    would you buy R1T again as of 3/25/2024?

    Absolutely yes! Far and away best and most fun vehicle I have ever owned. I have 21" road tires and have had no issues with them - just hit 40,000 miles and will replace them next month. But I don't go off road any and we have no snow here. The quad motor is overkill for me, but what the...

    Service Center Raleigh, NC 2025

    Told me same thing. Also said that most of their service work is on NC vehicles.

    Bi-Directional Charging

    If you lived in a hurricane prone area you would understand. Whole house generator will cost $5000+. You also have to have a large propane tank and when power is out you could spend $100/day on propane to run the generator. Comparing the V2H to a whole house generator - V2H is a better option...

    Finally installed new tires (21” Pirelli Scorpions) last week!

    I'm at 37,000 miles now with 4/32 tread left. I figure I will get new tires at my next scheduled tire rotation at 40,000 miles.
