  1. Alex on Autos' Follow-Up After Selling His R1T

    Losing 3% on a 135kWh battery is not comparable to losing 2% on a 75kWh battery. If you're comparing the two it would be like the Rivian losing 6% vs the Tesla's 2%.

  2. Interior peeling

    There is damage to the handle itself, isn't the handle made of metal? Seems like a pretty serious impact on the handle then.

  3. Who is excited about Cybertruck?

    I'm sorry. If it makes you feel better my vehicle delivery estimate for a Large Pack R1S (since max pack is not even possible) is the whole year of 2024 :(

  4. Who is excited about Cybertruck?

    Like the Max Pack Rivians now? :CWL:

  5. Who is excited about Cybertruck?

    I'm not sure how you would call that monstrosity in-line with Tesla's design language. Again I don't think the cheese wedge is good looking either so lol. Yes but you're comparing a highly refined and iterated battery pack with a first iteration structural battery pack. There's room for...

  6. Who is excited about Cybertruck?

    In my opinion most naysayers in this thread don't understand why the Cybertrucks looks the way it looks. Does it look good? That's highly debatable, even I would say a door wedge ain't the prettiest. The manufacturing processes Tesla is employing to create the CT and the non rounded edges look...

  7. Powered 40 qt Frunk Cooler and 12 gal Water Tank w/ washdown sprayer concept (by @BoxGods)

    Do you have examples of finished products you have brought to market, maybe a website?

  8. Rivian refuses to reinstate my preorder...

    I don't even understand the point of this post. Is OP trying to garner sympathy with a bunch of internet people? If so I doubt us signing a change.org petition will change anything. If he's trying to get the attention of someone in Rivian, omitting things like multiple cancellations just makes...

  9. 👋 Hello From Abstract Ocean!

    I wonder if you should have a blurb about the headlight tints. Technically they're illegal in many states. Kind of like how knife sellers say you have to be educated on the laws in your own state.

  10. Sandy Munro Tearing Down Rivian R1T Battery Pack

    I still don't understand. If somehow you were able to regen full battery and never had to charge from the wall, does that mean you never had a cycle? Regen adds cycles you wouldn't count or be aware of because no one is tracking it.

  11. Sandy Munro Tearing Down Rivian R1T Battery Pack

    I mean that was clearly an over exaggeration to demonstrate it since I mentioned earlier it's a "tiny amount per regen event." Cycles add up. We're not even mentioning the 23 years of shelf life degradation 300,000 miles would get from the average number of miles people drive a year.

  12. Sandy Munro Tearing Down Rivian R1T Battery Pack

    For standardization of tests they consider a "cycle" a discharge down to a defined percentage and a recharge. If you want to talk purely of full cycles it would be discharging a battery completely and charging it back up. But very few people do that. In the case of regen it is definitely...

  13. Sandy Munro Tearing Down Rivian R1T Battery Pack

    This is actually a good thing. Based on the voltage that is a LiFePO4 battery which will last much longer being constantly sitting at full charge in a hot vehicle door than the 21700s in the battery pack.
