While each state may be different, I have purchased a car out-of-state (in this case Florida) and did not have to pay sales tax with proof of my residence in Montana.

Where I live you could easily drive 300 or 400 miles without passing any reasonable charging opportunities except maybe a campground or somebody's dryer or welder outlet. I have a Tesla Model S with 300 mile range and I do a 400-mile round trip most weekends and the charging gets tiresome...

I live in Montana, and I bought an exotic car from a dealer in Florida once. I made the transaction online, not at the actual dealership. When I gave them my Montana address for tax/title/registration, they wouldn't believe me that I actually live in Montana. They required me to submit a...

You don’t see it much anymore because there is now an annual luxury tax in Montana (now about 4 years old) for cars more than $150k MSRP. Oh yeah and it’s MT, not MO…that’s the show-me state.

Not sure if there is any parallels but I'm doing a remodel at my home and a whole new kitchen appliance package: all items including refrigeration/freezers/dishwasher/wall oven/microwave have about 6 week lead time. The range with gas AND induction cooktop they have no estimate and perhaps even...

One of the more unsettling things in my Tesla Model S is when the battery is cold and I forget that regen won’t work and I lift my foot of the gas pedal and it’s like “why isn’t the car slowing down!?” and I have to remember I have that other pedal I can use to slow the car down. I assume it...

What's the name on the packages? If it is your friend's name somehow they are considered "unsolicited goods" and your friend can keep the items and is under no obligation to return them. If it is a different name then Rivian should send the shipper to come collect the items. Your friend is under...

Yes the wind can be a range-killer at high speed. In my Tesla Model S in windy central Montana, direction of the wind can change the range I get/lose by more the double/half. It makes driving unpredictable when we consistently have 30 to 40mph prevailing winds and you are trying to drive 85mph...

The wind plays a huge role on my Tesla Model S efficiency. I make the same 400-mile, each way, trip every week. Average efficiency is 340Wh/mile for the trip. Average speed about 83mph. On windy days (and in central Montana we get some very windy days) it can go up over 500Wh/mile for the trip...

Also in my Tesla if my seat belt is not fastened it will go into park once over a certain speed.

I have a 2016 Model S 90D. I drive long distances weekly (400 mile round trip) and am dependent on the supercharging network. My drives can be cold and windy and when its both the power usage of the Model S can go from 300 Wh/mile very quickly to 600 Wh/mile destroying my range. And since the...

Definitely the MaxPack for me. I have had a Tesla Model S 90D for 4 years and driven almost 70,000 miles in Montana. I travel frequently on the 200-mile trip between Billings and Big Sky in every type of weather imaginable. I have found in the Tesla, wind has the most impact on range with a trip...
