Through April 21st. I was there Friday , the R2 looks smaller in person and cuter than I expected, the R3 surprisingly look bigger (subjective)

There's all these gas nozzles around. Some are red. Some are green and always separate. I thought gas is gas, so I just grabbed the closest green one and filled the tank. Why is my car now trashed? OK, sarcasm done. The issue at hand is the classic: knowing just enough to be dangerous: so...

I never got a mode where the red went away (I had much bigger firmware issues: behavior changes a lot per firmware update), but compatibility mode is accessed a) through the Tesla pro app (if I recall) b) force the UWC into setup mode by pressing and holding the connector button, then connect to...

Turning red is completely normal (not a good look, but Rivian does that). Staying red is an entirely different matter : did you wait a good 7 seconds or so before unplugging?

That is true. I know the icons on the fob are impossible to see sometimes, I ended up painting the icons white like others have done. Enough is enough, I -- I mean my friend -- ordered glow-in-the-dark pen from this poster...

Also, could we have the proximity sensors/GearGuard LOCK that tailgate when someone hits the wrong button on the FOB when the truck is parked against a wall. Asking for a friend.

powered tonneau back in configuration?

The Rivian nav. just routed me to a single Rivian SC ... wanted me to charge to 100% for 1 hour and 10 minutes (max pack) to return home, rather than charge for 13 minutes at one, and then 12 min at another right along the way further up. Looks like they don't factor in charging curves at all...

So I missed the first highway pothole @ 65MPH, and then the second one. .... and etc. etc. until I didn't (thanks, CA). My question: My R1T (AT 20s) clearly bottomed out the RHS suspension. Hard. Everything seems fine, the alignment same as it was before (as far as I can tell), the ATs have no...

It's a hardware limitation. While we'd like to think electrons are just electrons, AC and DC in an EV are completely separate paths. Here's the tip: you will RARELY use anything above 40amp AC (standard NEMA 14-50), 48 is rarer-ish, and everything above that is a dying breed. Future EVs will NOT...

You hit the reserve button MORE THAN ONCE:

Some of us are shorter than others. Here’s me getting my ass into the seat.

For what it's worth -- I've had the Tesla UWC for about 3 months .... of hell. firmware bugs left and right. I think they finally ironed it out now, so I can finally say: the smoothness of the connector is highly recommended. Far better than adapters, which, mostly due to their weatherproofing...

This data is available from the grid in general (YMMV on location). For example Silicon Valley has the SV grid shift program to automate exactly your request. None of this seems ready for prime time: consider yourself a beta tester .

Compost, Recycling, or Trash?

It's not the engineering only, it's the cost: Labor costs alone pretty much negates any retrofit option, and: as all future cars will have NACS, I cannot think of a single company that would touch this. As others have noted, you need a complete solution, which is more than wiring.

It’s a low drum from several songs straight from Halsey. Every time I put my blinker on, one of her songs pops back into my head.

VW is reviving the Scout brand. They have ... a drawing! So ..... a smushed Rivian? Volkswagen Group to launch all-electric pick-up and rugged SUV in the United States -- Scoutevforum.com

The Wisconsin's DMV has 50 shades of gray!? California is so far behind the, um, fashion trend.

Not a call to action, but some observations: 1) TSLA and RIVN (probably all EVs, only checked these) 2) have a correlation coefficient of almost 0.9. That is to say: as soon as Rivian announcing they are saving $2 BILLION dollars , have R2, R3 ... the market completely forgets that in just a few...
