Had to look this one up. You can disable the rear sensors, in the event you have a bike rack or anything behind the vehicle. I think you can turn the others off too. I am always super careful when driving the truck, and I get dinged and donged constantly when I am close to anything. When...

Those waypoint chargers are great. Looks like that one was free. They tend to do the full 48A / 11KW not like some other public L2 chargers. Sounds like a great time.

12 stations, all NACS, all open to non-rivians. No other DCFC options around it, looks well positioned to fill a need. Chevron truck stop with a helicopter on top! Rivian Adventure Network - Jacumba Hot Springs, CA | Jacumba Hot Springs, CA | EV Station

Jacumba, CA is live too. They all seem to be in adventurous locations, on-brand. 100% renewable energy. Well done.

You probably won't need the brake, you will be moving so slowly that the regen will stop you almost at once. This is where high-regen would probably be a better bet. Once you get used to it, you won't want to go back.

The auto setting is very aggressive I have found. My AC is very cold. I use auto to get it cold, then turn it off when I get in the truck, just leave it on LO with a low fan speed.

He is replying based on telematics / analytics his company collects. In the context of when he said it, it was about the value equation of lowering the time to DCFC vs the cost involved for the R2, and the population that would actually value it based on the averages. I would not want to pay...

Get the adapters, get a Tesla membership, use mobile apps for planning, grab some "i'm in dog mode stickers", and have fun. Don't stress over the charging. Plan maybe 2 stops ahead in detail, and the entire trip at a high level. Have fun!

My wife did most of the driving on our test drive. Her comments were that it was very smooth, drove better than my R1T, was quieter than her Tesla M3, was easy to park, and had more power than she would ever need. I agree with all that, especially the part about it being a very smooth ride.

OP used the card on file, the charging started right away, displayed at 185KW starting from 20% SOC. The question is when did it derate for the charging curve and to what KW. I'm not watching that entire video to figure it out. On average, people DCFC 10 times a year (according to RJ). I don't...

So is every accident we see with a Rivian where someone is t-boned a AEB failure? Accidents happen. Are you even sure AEB is SUPPOSED to work with drivers coming at you from the side?

Ya know it might be. I usually stop the HVAC, give it a few seconds, restart it and it is fine. Never looked farther. Thanks.

Auto is too aggressive, it can be loud when it starts, I've had scheduled HVAC start but not cool, etc. On the flip side, it has really cold AC, and both AC & heat come to temperature quickly.

I find the auto setting to be really aggressive, even after they tuned it. I leave it on LO and adjust the fan speed.

I've had two trucks since 2022 and I've done fewer than 10 resets. I don't do it often enough to remember how. Maybe I just don't notice the bugs, and frankly I don't care about the small stuff or quirks with the HVAC. My wife and I don't drive each other's vehicles usually so the OP main issue...

I asked RA about this. I was on a beach highway and the truck was reading the signs as 35, but would then change back to 45 a bit later. Kept happening. RA said the vehicles will "read" speed limit signs AND use recent map data to determine the speed limit. This can cause issues for roads that...

I stopped reading at "lack of CarPlay"...

That's good to know, thanks!

I get that. The Rivian mobile EVSE itself has a limit on 120V charging I think. It's not that the human derates it, it is that the EVSE does. Even if you plug it into a 14-50, the EVSE is only going to "see" 120V, and limit it. See page 13 here: portable-charger-guide-en-us-fr-ca-101822.pdf...

The 30A outlet on many of these units is a TT-30, which is just a 30A 120V outlet. With an adapter, plugged into the 14-50 on the mobile EVSE, thats going to be limited to a slightly fast L1 charge at 120V/16A. I've never tried it, but that is what I've read.
