  1. First winter drive that had 90% good thoughts that ended in maybe the 3rd worst outcome

    Yes. $80. Discount tire. I would guess rims at minimum would cost $1200 including mounting. Every 3 years you would have to switch out tires for wear regardless. It would take at least 12 years to get your money back on dedicated rims for winter tires.
  2. First winter drive that had 90% good thoughts that ended in maybe the 3rd worst outcome

    Minnesota here. I put on snow tires for all last winter. You'll never regret it, plus they are cheaper than stock tires. No need to buy dedicated rims as it would take years to get that money back (especially since your tires probably wont last more than 3 seasons)
  3. Rivian Home Charger Fail

    An update, Rivian ended up replacing my wall charger. Works perfect now!
  4. Rivian Home Charger Fail

    I did not do that, I will try it. Its odd as at times it will start charging, then error out within a second or two. Going into the service center on Friday, so I'll have an answer soon.
  5. Rivian Home Charger Fail

    Interesting, I've heard noises that may be this. I'll be curious what they end up doing.
  6. Rivian Home Charger Fail

    Yep. They even had me disassemble the charger and send pictures of the inside. I had it for 10 months with not a single issue until a month ago
  7. Rivian Home Charger Fail

    Over the past few weeks my home charger hasn't been working properly. It started with "unplug and try again" as the error message, eventually working. Now it will not charge at all. The charger will turn green and eventually the charging port will turn red. I'm now using my plug in charger...
  8. IRS Tax Credit Form Delayed?

    Here was the response from my accountant...fyi. The IRS is working on the Form 8936 at the moment, and we are hearing it will be out of development sometime in February The last release date for these instructions for this Form 8936 directly form the IRS was dated Jan 2022 – one year ago...
  9. IRS Tax Credit Form Delayed?

    Spoke with my accountant yesterday, it sounds as though the IRS tax credit form is delayed until mid Feb? Has anyone else ran into this? Any guidance would be helpful! Thanks!
  10. Rally Mode Activated - put the kids in back of R1S to make some memories

    I do this quite often in my neighborhood cul de sac after checking the mail, its a blast!
  11. 0°F Commute Efficiency

    For me the issue has only appeared in temps below 10 degrees.
  12. 0°F Commute Efficiency

    I am planning on testing this out one of these nights, I've been waiting on sub zero temps. If you drove north to a cabin and only had a 120V outside, would you have any gain?
  13. Minnesota Pre Orders

    I've been having the same discussion in other threads regarding the HVAC system. I think the southerners are having difficulty understand how much it struggles in the single digits and below.
  14. 0°F Commute Efficiency

    The 76F the cabin is set at is not actual the cabin temp. I keep my house at 66F. The Rivian struggles to keep cabin temps up in the cold. It would be interesting to see SET vs ACTUAL at various outside temps.
  15. Minnesota Pre Orders

    I think its a nice upgrade. It really helps when slowing down on slippery roads. There was a detailed post from someone else that went into detail.
  16. 0°F Commute Efficiency

    Come to Minnesota, the temps were -7F this morning on my commute. 76 kept it mild, but by no means warm. Luckily I don't need the great efficiency for in town commute, but if I was planning a long trip, wearing my ice fishing clothes to make it to the next charger seems unreasonable.
  17. 0°F Commute Efficiency

    I preheat at home while plugged in, but it does not pull from the external power if charged to its preset limit. Plugging in isn't an option at work.
  18. 0°F Commute Efficiency

    I believe 76F. The heater struggles to keep up at low temps unless you recirculate, then the windows fog up. I had the seat heater on low as well as the steering wheel on.
  19. 0°F Commute Efficiency

    I'm definitely happy with it, but I feel as though it's useful for others to understand how the Rivian performs in various conditions. If you are planning a road trip in the winter, these numbers can be quite helpful as a worse case scenario. It was about 20 minutes and yes, I'm sure the...
  20. 0°F Commute Efficiency

    Cold commute home this evening. 20" Blizzaks, All Purpose mode. Most of the driving was done between 30-40 mph on highway traffic. Efficiency taking quite a hit in these temps!
