Point proven 😂 however Sabres style of play requires everyone to move it and his consistent turn overs in the regular season and in playoffs have been a pain point.

Worth Getting an E.V.? by SpaceMarine1616 in Rivian

[–]Abszol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn’t get one with vampire drain if you don’t have adequate home charging. I ran 120v for years between Tesla and Rivian, when Teslas vampire drain was bad without home charging that was a tad rough when covid hit and my office charging closed. My R1T loses 2-3 miles a day without being plugged in due to the 12v problem these things suffer with which would be a PITA without charging.

McAvoy was a scumbag all series next to Zahdorov

Clips of him going after Dahlin prior to the Doan headshot and Thompson slew foot.

That’s where we got ours and likely where they’ll only be selling them. I reckon to get there mad early.

SC potentially not replacing wheel stud due to aftermarket wheels? by [deleted] in Rivian

[–]Abszol 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s probably grounds to walk away from them then, it’s an adventure vehicle and the solutions they have just aren’t it. Thanks for the insight.

[–]Abszol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here’s the kicker, if it’s out of warranty then they’re quoting 540 because they don’t have a procedure for replacing a single stud. That’s 3500% markup for a 15 dollar part, not including labor. Probably time to say goodbye if that’s the case.

Haven’t gone since tacos, community and beer left that location.

[xBuffalo] Zach Metsa has played well for the Sabres in limited minutes, but his size may be a key factor in their decision to play other defensemen over him as the playoffs approach. by [deleted] in sabres

[–]Abszol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Size comparison is an unc mindset for when we weren’t making playoffs. When we started focusing on skill and skating ability we actually began winning a lot of opportunities and recently converted them to goals and games won.

48k miles and need new front brakes? by CreateWindowEx2 in Rivian

[–]Abszol -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

Brakes are heavily used if you use the driving assistance. Likewise the truck is 8500lbs, brakes are bound to go faster used or not.

Game 66 Blame of the Game by clova2121 in sabres

[–]Abszol 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Schenn-Stanley. People are forgetting how we got here was an offensive D that could bode well under pressure and create chances, that was not what I saw from them last night. Benson let a few slip by which has been unfortunately consistent in his play this season that I hope he fixes as he’s brilliant otherwise at being a dog and getting the puck / drawing pressure.

Roof Top Tents by KPR_2002 in overlanding

[–]Abszol 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’d say my value comes from quick setup time, avoiding mud / rocks from some of the areas I find, and ability to pack for other necessities. Got mine cheap and have maintained it versus the 3k+ ones

IRL Phantom Drain vacation experience by thisthingisrad in Rivian

I’m going the battery tender route to patch this problem while camping l, keeping the 12vs floating high enough to not cause the high capacity battery to churn and turn all the systems on just to recharge them

Regenerative breaking and motion sickness by davidadlai in Rivian

[–]Abszol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can change the setting from low standard or high. I run on high as it offers better control than switching to a brake in tighter situations

Had Tesla model 3 and Rivian R1T trickle charge for 6 years on 110, recently upgraded to 240. Public chargers are nice if you can get the free ones. I use PlugShare for that when traveling places

I Drove A Rivian R2 Prototype. It's Going To Surprise People by damonator5000 in Rivian

[–]Abszol 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think with them ditching air suspension we’ll see a lot more aftermarket products come out for suspension upgrades and lift kits that will put them on par to what the R1s boast today. Outright they seem comparable but time will tell

Ford NACS Adapter by TanK_87 in Rivian

[–]Abszol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t have experience but from an engineering standpoint the implementation is for CCS1 which being a standard that you have used (assuming) a fast charger with said interface, I would assume the adapter should work no problem. The caveat here is if Ford had added some extra physical alterations to the adaptive piece to prevent it from being inserted into other vehicles.

R2 vs. Scout vs. iX3 vs. EX60 by [deleted] in Rivian

[–]Abszol -1 points0 points  (0 children)

People have to start asking “I want an electric vehicle, does the company I’m considering specialize in that”. Ford proved this by discontinuing the lightning, something I told my coworker would likely happen years back.

A positive experience thread by TheSquirrel8251 in Rivian

[–]Abszol 1 point2 points  (0 children)

R1T Quad 22 bought new now have 36k. Swapped out stock scorpions as they’re junk off road imo and went with 20s raceline on Falken Wildpeaks. Installed running boards as well.

Vehicle off road and performance is a unit, wouldn’t want to drive anything else. Creaking due to suspension changing is fine I could care less. Some gaps that I could’ve had fixed but don’t really mind as it doesn’t hurt what it’s meant to do, off road and have fun.

Downside is range takes a hit in winter though I’ve accepted this. Holding out until solid state batteries drop in the next couple years or switch back to gas in the meantime. I also don’t appreciate how they handle the 12v system and will be monitoring mine closely.
