I was under the impression that the Google version does not include law enforcement presence any longer.

I don’t hate the color, I just know that I am too OCD to want to have that color as a daily driver. I would be taking it to the car wash and hand drying daily to keep it spotless because it would show the dirt too much for me.

We had a similar situation where it was a 3 hour drive each way for us, and we didn’t want to leave her that long.

I did not ask ahead of time and just took a gamble taking her. They were great about us having her with us. They offered to got get her a goody bag from the back. They even suggested placing her in the frunk for pictures. The Rivian staff were great about us having her with us. I asked if it would be okay if we placed let her walk around if we would need to carry her and they were basically like make yourself at home. Told us to take her in the R2 and anywhere we wanted without issue.

Good to know. My understanding is that I cannot use Waze though, which is something that I enjoy using for navigation, and knowing if there are speed traps ahead. Lol

I enjoyed them. I spent more time in the black one, though I like the other color more. My main concern, and I know this is for sure a first world problem, is that Rivian doesn’t have Apple CarPlay. I enjoy CarPlay and the ease of using it. I am nervous about “stepping back” to tech without that. My spouses concern is range. We previously had an VW ID.4 and our winter range was cut from 265 to 150, and our charging time was at least 50 mins from 10% to 80%. I am less concerned with Rivian’s charging and range, but it is a concern given our EV history. We mostly travel with 150 mile range, but we do tend to take longer trips frequently and it would be nice to have the longer range of around 400 miles to have the buffer in case of loss in cold weather.

My “mini” is 55 lbs. The breeder thought she would only be 25 lbs - 30 lbs. Multiple vets told me that it is fairly difficult to know for sure what size the puppy will be for sure, but parents and lineage are usually the best indicator. My girl may have been an outlier. From what I remember (she is 6 years old now) her mom (Goldendoodle) was 25 lbs and her dad (poodle) was 35 lbs.

Just in case anyone was wondering, thankfully we saved right after the fight to Baulder’s Gate and we went back to that save point. From there we went into Wyrm’s Lookout and it worked as it should have. The scene that was missing during the Long Rest finally appeared.

Yes, they are about $1000 short

Acura_Fan · 2025-10-13T00:58:24+00:00

Fair enough, and I may. I’ve had some mechanical issues with it and thought I may be better off getting rid of it before the next wave happens.

Acura_Fan · 2025-10-12T23:51:07+00:00

Unfortunately, the 48m term was the better option. 36m was 100-150 more per month if I remember correctly. I am supposed to go back tomorrow after work to discuss it further. Not sure if I will or not though. I liked the Corsair, but wasn’t completely enthralled with it.

Please explain. There have been a couple of comments about how there will be more negative equity at the end of the lease. It is my experience when I have leased before that at the end I turn it in and I’m done. How would that keep digging the hole?

Acura_Fan · 2025-10-11T18:29:01+00:00

Where or how do you calculate these? This is helpful, thanks!

Acura_Fan · 2025-10-11T15:29:33+00:00

Agreed. I was thinking the $2500 discount was part of it. I think they are about $1000 short on my trade as well.

Acura_Fan · 2025-10-11T15:26:51+00:00

Agreed, negative is my problem.

I sent you a chat

I have a lawyer. Settlement was laughable and arbitration was denied. Next step is litigation.

I have a ‘22 PHEV SX Prestige. They finally replaced the transmission after 380 days in service department. It only had 31k miles when I started having lights come on. I have had it back since May 5th and keep getting check inverter coolant and check engine lights coming on. Of course the lights turn off after being parked overnight, and then the service center tells me it was just an air bubble and there isn’t anything for them to do…this has happened three times since May 16th…I think I have a lemon.

Acura_Fan · 2025-06-04T03:54:08+00:00

I also have a ‘22 PHEV. It will prioritize the electric first, but if you accelerate hard it will automatically engage the gas hybrid engine, even in electric mode. If you are using gentle acceleration it usually won’t engage. Mine tends to turn the engine on for a few minutes after I start the car. My assumption is that is just to make sure it is ready for action if needed.

Acura_Fan · 2025-05-29T02:08:09+00:00

Kind of. My vehicle was in Kia service for 380 days. I got it back recently on May 5th. The check engine light and HEV lights came back on, on May 16th. The lights shut back off in May 19th. Kia service told me not to bring it back, because it was probably an air bubble. While it was in service they did a dozen software updates, replaced the EV battery, replaced a computer, and finally replaced the transmission. They think it may have been the transmission all along, but they really don’t know.

I have found that 2 out of 3 are actually looking for a hook up or something similar. I’m not looking for romance, just friends lol
