    Towing Capacity & Range -- Possible to tow 6,500 pounds 150 miles without a recharge?

    Going with a hard no from experience. Same weight V-Nose Car Hauler. I tried pushing to 115 miles and dipped 4kWh past 0. Rule of thumb 1% battery per mile and youā€™ll be safe. Also the charge time back to 80% from 0% even on a 350kW charger blows. The truck ramps down to 150kWh and says...

    2022.47.0 software update installed w/ SNOW MODE!

    First day on the new update. A couple things I noticed so far with the update is that in conserve mode Iā€™m having some turning issues. Turning corners at intersection from a stop or low speed, after accelerating moderately, the truck immediately grabs and darts at almost a 90 degree right or...

    Poll: How often do you use the Camp Speaker?

    Never, but if anyone has one that theyā€™ve broken, Iā€™d like to hollow it out and use it for handgun storage.

    12 volt system totally died, bricked truck... Still waiting for Rivian to review logs and tell me why!

    Dropping 2 charged lithium batteries in the spare tire well. If I get stranded, I could give no shits about a warranty if it can get me out of a jamb. Some ass covering can be to put a multimeter on the dead batteries and take a photo before changing them. Changing out two 12v batteries...

    With temperatures dropping is anyone else already noticing range losses?

    This was my data from a 33-37 degree trip from ME to MA. I drive 80mph with cruise and driver + for 90% of my trip. Conserve mode, lowest ride height, 21ā€ wheels with covers removed, cabin temp 71. Started with 90% battery and ended up at 14% over 180 miles with no stops. 95% Highway and 5%...

    Towing + Efficiency: Please post your experience!

    Mirroring what others have said, this truck pulls a trailer with zero issues except range. You canā€™t hear any struggle in the drive train and really wouldnā€™t know it was there without looking in the rear view or watching your battery percentage evaporate. Accelerating from a stop is...

    Correct, I had run grey conduit everywhere I either put or anticipated putting a TV. In my garage I never got around to installing a TV, so I used my speaker wires as a pull string for #6 individual conductors.

    Not sure why youā€™d say that. 6/2 is rated of 65 amps at 75c per the NEC tables. 48 amps on a 60 amp breaker doesnā€™t exceed 80% load rating.

    Charging behavior on 39.1+ Breaker tripping?

    Just because it works fine at lower amps doesnā€™t necessarily mean itā€™s a bad breaker. You can still have a loose connection, but at lower load it doesnā€™t provide enough heat to get inside the breakers trip curve range. Loose connections can make it seem like the breaker has an issue. You are...

    Charging behavior on 39.1+ Breaker tripping?

    As others have suggested, turn power off and check the torque of all connections from the breaker at the panel to the charger. This isnā€™t necessarily a load issue, it could be heat. High resistance connections create extreme heat. Heat will cause a breaker to nuisance trip even though the...

    So lucky I left some speaker wires in the wall and actually remembered where they were. Was able to use them to pull a wire snake through. Ran 6/2 copper in the wall without surface mounting conduit on the wall.
