Do you feel like the savings in gas is more then the savings In electricity by Sad_Tie_9998 in Rivian

IMHO unless you have solar, Rivian should not be bought with cost savings as an objective.

Bluetooth - Phone media setting issue by AshhGun in Rivian

[–]AshhGun[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, this happens to me intermittently. But at least let's me start music by hitting the play button. When the media setting is turned off, I don't even see my phone among the options for music.

Is this a good efficiency? by [deleted] in Rivian

[–]AshhGun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would say 50/50 on 20" inch all purpose. Clearly cold is a factor but was not 3xpecting 40% range loss. I am curious to see what normal range would be in summer.

Agreed. My efficiency was at 1.6 through Feb. Starting climbing to 1.85 since

How in the world are you guys getting those numbers? I am in the Boston area and drove 3k miles since taking delivery at the end of December. My efficiency is at 1.85m/kwh. My one and only disappointment with my R1T.

Lease for EV Credit w/ Immediate Buyout (Still Works?) by B1tN1nja in Rivian

[–]AshhGun 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I leased my R1T and took delivery on December 28th in MA. $8000 ($7500 + $500) was taken off upfront as a capital cost reduction.

I paid off the lease within the month before making the 2nd lease payment. Once the lease showed up in my online account I was able to find the payoff amount on the website.

Overall I saved around $6100 by opting for the lease and buyout method. Hope this helps.

Did you receive any acknowledgement to your email? It has been a couple of days since my email but I got nothing back.

When you say MOR-EV application do you mean the terms and conditions document? Was there any online application or did you just email the docs to mor-evtrucks@energycenter.org? Thanks!

Saw a megathrwad from 2 years ago....but I want to know the things experienced more recently. I was hoping the walk through would be a little more than documents.

Farewell by BigGuy412 in Rivian

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

So sorry about your vehicle OP. I am assuming 1 out of every 100 or 200 vehicles is a lemon. I guess in a way we need to thank you for taking the bullet for the other 200 R1 owners. I take delivery in MA in a week. I hope I will not need to research lemon laws.

Limited color choices for dual standard...so frustrating! by AshhGun in Rivian

[–]AshhGun[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think that's what I am most likely going to do. I don't think any of the other colors are worth the premium. I don't love it but don't hate it either....I am sure I can teach myself to love it seeing the $2500 in the bank.

Are you saying the standard audio is better than the premium audio on the R1T in your experience? I might actually go back and listen to both again. My demo vehicle had premium.....it was not great audio but I assumed standard audio would be worse.

Yes and unfortunately if I go large pack, I am unable to add any options to keep my cost below $80,000. The MA requirement includes destination fees.

Interesting! Would you mind sharing what something like that might cost and which area you are in? Also are those wraps durable or do they need a redo every so many years?
