  1. Can you register in Montana if not taking delivery there?

    Might as well allow the average folk to scam the tax system since the rich can do it all day long.
  2. Can you register in Montana if not taking delivery there?

    I took delivery in CO and registered in AK with no major problems.
  3. So what is up with this company?

    Wouldā€™ve been nice but still not enough to get near 250 miles with a decent trailer. With a 7000lb travel trailer I got a fairly consistent average of 1mi/kwh, so a theoretical max of 135 miles but realistically 125 if youā€™re pushing it. An extra 45kwh of battery, while nice, wouldnā€™t give an...
  4. So what is up with this company?

    So what was the original email that caused all this angst? Pretty sure we are all still curious at how you interpreted it this badly.
  5. Good neighbors watch each other's backs (and Rivians)

    Around here that wouldnā€™t even count as hail.
  6. Can we stop asking for CarPlay now? "The next generation of Apple CarPlay will take over all of the screens, sensors and gauges in a car..."

    It took me a long time as an Android user to figure out why I would get stupid messages like that in group chats. Now Iā€™m not a poor and I have an iPhone so itā€™s all good I guess.
  7. Trailer lights not working

    No issues on my trailer with all LED lighting but that was in a 7-pin connection. Do you have another 7-4 adapter you could try?
  8. Launch Green questions

    I was trying to find my pictures showing the same but he beat me to it. Donā€™t be too impressed by a bronze star plate though. Those things were handed out like candy as participation trophies for close to 20 years. If it doesnā€™t have a V it doesnā€™t mean much.
  9. Any way to auto lock, unlock without the door handles constantly presenting?

    Put it in camp mode and it will not auto lock/unlock. You could also close the app on your phone when walking away from the truck and it will do the same.
  10. My R1T towing experience; spoiler: it was awesome

    Iā€™d hope the truck would tow well given itā€™s at 10% of the rated capacity. If Rivian/EVs in general could solve the range limitations theyā€™d be the best tow vehicles on the market.
  11. This is why I no longer use the Rivian for Long Distance trips.

    Why change? In general on a road trip Iā€™m not driving for fun, Iā€™m driving to get to somewhere. That means 800-1000 mile days which are already long before adding in another two hours or more for charging. Itā€™s even worse when towing and Iā€™d have to stop every 100 miles to charge for an extended...
  12. Launch Green questions

    Under most conditions mine appeared similar to the second picture.
  13. Bug Tare-Away Shield for R1 Front End Needed

  14. This is why I no longer use the Rivian for Long Distance trips.

    Thatā€™s the beauty of the Ram Charger. Itā€™s not a traditional hybrid and only has an electric drivetrain. The engine is solely a generator to provide electricity when the battery is depleted. Iā€™ll have to ask my buddy about his 4xe Wrangler. I know he said he drives to work and home without the...
  15. This is why I no longer use the Rivian for Long Distance trips.

    I understand charge curve quite well. Iā€™m simply stating that if you have two batteries with identical thermal management plugged into identical 200kw charge stations the smaller battery will be charged fully in less time. Yes, the larger battery will hold a higher charge rate for longer but...
  16. This is why I no longer use the Rivian for Long Distance trips.

    And yet the 65kw pack will always be charged fully in less time. The mathematician part is a joke. A large battery pack will always take longer to charge if all else is equal.
  17. This is why I no longer use the Rivian for Long Distance trips.

    Subject to change of course but right now the Ram Charger projected pricing is cheaper than a Rivian and does include all of the above.
  18. This is why I no longer use the Rivian for Long Distance trips.

    I wholeheartedly agree. A PHEV that allows nearly every driver to do a daily commute on cheap electricity but not suffer the pain of long distance EV driving is likely to be hugely successful. Especially when used as a truck, something the R1T struggled at for me given range reduction when...
  19. This is why I no longer use the Rivian for Long Distance trips.

    Iā€™m no mathematician but regardless of thermal management a 200kw charge rate into a 65kw battery will still be twice as fast as a 200kw charge rate into a 130kw battery.
  20. Out of Spec Kyle's 4,500 mile Cybertruck review. Gives verdict vs his Rivian R1T

    Itā€™s a shame. Bring back the days of murders done by classy looking motherfuckers in suits with good old fashioned wood and blued steel firearms.
