    Strategic ways not to block two Tesla stations

    Very Nice, but how did you get the NACS Adaptor so quick or is that the Ford version? I zoomed in & can see it's not a Magic Dock SC. :cool: (I'm using the Vortex... shush, don't tell anyone...):cool:

    Tesla super charging questions

    I ordered mine late Oct' '23. & did the same thing... every 2-3 weeks sent them an email, mainly because I live on the road & wanted them to ship the Vortex ahead of me to my next motel & they did. Take that original email with your order number on it & email it back for an update. and Tarkus...

    25k miles, 17 months, 10K kwh on original factory 21" tires

    My 1st set of 21" Road Wheels lasted 19k. I could have gone another 1k, but I had just got my 1st "bolt" (not a nail) in the meat of the left rear 5/32 tire & did not want to be in the middle of nowhere again & get another "bolt" in my tire. I was able to drive 25 miles from "nowhere", as the...

    MidnightRivian's R1S Tesla Charger test session hitting speeds @ 217 kW using A2Z adapter / plug and charge feature

    Awesome News! My Lectron Vortex has shipped & will arrive at my next motel later this week & I'll do my best to post a review as well. Since it's shaped just like this one I don't expect much difference. When I use a Magic Dock here in NY (and the only Magic Dock in PA, last month) I've never...

    Charging Habits and Battery Health

    I guess Tarkus & I (and my two kitty cats) are a "EV Anomaly Drive Team" as I/we live & work on the road, driving nationwide from county to county testing the accuracy of wireless E911 calls. I typically pick a motel with a supercharger nearby for Tarkus as the "bullseye" & test the surrounding...

    Let's talk Tesla Supercharger parking etiquette...

    I've been using the Magic Dock in Batavia, NY for a few weeks now & actually got a "Thank You" from a Tesla driver as he was leaving today between snow storms (another 6" expected overnight) . "Tarkus" needs her "Juice" daily... :cool:

    Who has the most miles on their R1 without a service?

    Just passed 20k since getting "Tarkus" last Aug '23. Only been in to have the upper rear hatch rubber seal re-glued (I could have re-glued it myself, but wanted Rivian to "see it" for QC). No other issues & I'm on my 2nd set of 21" OEM Tires as well. :cool:

    Trouble in the snow with my QM R1T Adventure

    Not sure why you had issues. I drove up to Kettle Creek State Park in Clinton County, PA & had zero issues. Even came across one of the few hair-pin turns & saw a 4 wheeled Dodge failed to go up the steep curved hill & had slide back down to the curve & I went up the hairpin curve hill with no...
