  1. Poll: Will you stay with Rivian after Price Increase?

    Bye, bye... Im no sucker
  2. Rivian: we’re out.

    Lets see all the fanbois right here. Count them as a RJ equivalent of the Elon Cult. -Plop down 1k for a car that they dont have -waiting months if not years already for car they dont have -no timeline for delivery for the car they dont have and put down $1000 for -a car that will have fit and...
  3. What are you sacrificing to stay below the $80,000 tax break threshold?

    Sacrifice...nothing. Everything is well equipped as is.
  4. If a Rivian is not my next car…

    Well if you put it that way, the Buzz/minivans are, and has always been the better family car, but which guy would want to be seen driving a minivan? Minivans certainly had a "not cool" stigma attached to it when i was a young adult and it seems it wasnt just among my circle of freinds. I...
  5. If a Rivian is not my next car…

    I second the EV XC90, but im partial to Volvo bc I drive one. Rumor has it that the upcoming EV XC90 will have a 100-110kwh pack and get range of 600km (350+miles) WLTP. EPA range prob. low 300+. That would put it in same efficiency as Tesla X, and Y, and way more efficient than R1S. Trade off...
  6. Tax Credit Proposal - House Bill 11/3

    Well even Tesla doesn't make their batteries. They assemble them from OEM battery manufacturers. The big ones, Panasonic, LG, CATL.
  7. Tax Credit Proposal - House Bill 11/3

  8. Toyota BZ4X electric SUV

    Compared to Rivian off road prowess definitely not groundbreaking, but then again i reckon that's not what the BZ was designed for. As far as range/efficiency - approx. 285 - 300 miles/ 71.4 kwh battery. That puts it roughly in same range/efficiency as a Model Y. Pretty darn good for a first...
  9. Rivian R1T LE Windows Sticker - VIN#102

    Totally agree, if they give us 400 mile range with a 600kwh battery pack, driving a Hummer H1 would probably be just as efficient, environmentally friendly and cost just as much on your bank account. Its like saying, how far can my ICE car go is all that matters, I dont care about MPG.

    Ok, does this mean the NYC Brooklyn location is open?
  11. Frightening EV Credits

    Yup i agree, lets go back to the last competent administration that lowered fuel economy standards on ICE cars, and wanted to get rid of the EV credit.

  14. Likely Delivery Estimate For R1S If I Pre-Ordered Last Month

    Your delivery will be on December 25th 2022, give or take a few days, by my calculations. Just in time for Kwanzaa, Xmas, Hannukah, Festivus,...
  15. LA SILVER Rivian Photos

    That settles it, Ill be feminine with LA SIlver, save the extra $1k for some PPF, and be protected from Aholes with their shopping carts, while you masculinely buff out same scratches in your EL-Cap
  16. Rivian R1T first crash ?

    Can't identify stationary objects...? You kidding me...? Other car makers collision avoidance been identifying stationary objects for over 10yrs. I guess Rivian thinks its ok to drive into a wall since they are not people, cars, bikes and motorcycles. Maybe, if you put a woman and her baby...
  17. Rivian R1T first crash ?

    Automatic braking intended to crash into 2 parked cars? Ok Elon.... sure, sure...
  18. Rivian R1T first crash ?

    You expecting Rivian to issue a statement saying - we dont know why our automatic braking didn't work , or maybe why our Driver+ couldn't negotiate a turn. When it's about to make first deliveries with all the press and fanfare to go along with it?
  19. Rivian R1T first crash ?

    Maybe not your first production vehicle, but that's not what there website is marketing. Besides this was a test vehicle, and what do you do in "test" vehicles? - you TEST, things like level 3,4,5... automated driving...
  20. Rivian R1T first crash ?

    Automated driver+ mode couldn't negotiate the turn. So, Rivian blames driver error with - Driver+, like all driver assistance systems, requires your full attention on the road. Echoes of/from Elon... marketing hands free driving. That's my guess.
