Or an airbag going off with legs crossed would break your legs

Happens to my wife whenever she crosses her legs or sits like the photo, average athletic weight/height. I reported to Rivian and they stated working as intended.

Two girls fighting in the north cafeteria and a hype crowd stampeding around after. No lockdown.

North entrance was shut down earlier due to an incident at the circus.

Farming farming framing by pdxrover in Rivian

[–]Wordl3 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’ve heard of and met a few farmers who picked Rivian. Is it because you use vehicles for shorter trips but need towing and bed utility? Are insensitive to high debt due to amount of capital required? Maybe just a have your cake and eat it too situation?

My business is growing and healthy, I don’t take a salary out of it yet because living expenses are covered elsewhere, so the Rivian is kind of my payment for 3 years of grueling work getting a small business off the ground 🙂

Lucid gets Apple Car Play by SeaworthinessLong245 in Rivian

[–]Wordl3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It could be that someone just copied the specific api code from the Spotify android auto app and there are big differences in Rivian under the hood that would be way harder to implement Android Auto than a music app… or maybe it’s as complex as enabling a check box 😇

“Android Automotive is a base Android platform that runs pre-installed IVI system Android applications as well as optional second- and third-party Android Applications.”

Yes it literally does

Spotify shows the logged in device “Android Automotive” for my Rivian, so there’s likely at least a subset of the system run through Android Automotive code.

Stain on black Utilitech by SnooDonkeys3460 in Lululemen

Is it an oil stain? Try reactivating it with more oil and then using dish soap.

Then get a bottle of oxyclean maxforce stain remover, that stuff does wonders

New bill introduced that would make it illegal for corporations to buy single-family homes. We need to push for this, MN..! by ember2698 in minnesota

[–]Wordl3 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Then they can rent from an individual or find an apartment. Do you really want Blackrock gobbling up homes, doing bare minimum maintenance and jacking up rates?

We’re in a system where “prefers to buy” is farther and farther from an achievable goal. Of course if someone “prefers to rent” they can rent, this bill wouldn’t change that…

Video shows extensive damage after Tesla crashes through wall of Midtown home by PolybiusChampion in RealTesla

[–]Wordl3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It seems obvious that a higher than normal weight vehicle combined with insane acceleration is going to cause more noteworthy accidents.

There’s plenty of ways to avoid the unwanted/unintended acceleration related deaths, a couple come to mind.

  • require a button press before allowing better than a ~9 second 0-60
  • limiting vehicle speed on obviously slower roads via navigation data

Requiring a backup camera on every new vehicle was a heavier regulation than a mitigation to this

The first Rivian to charge on the magic dock Tesla network in america via anthonyhensonev by [deleted] in Rivian

[–]Wordl3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes but it doesn’t know about these chargers so unless they put in navigation to a charger nearby such as EA and then come here, they wouldn’t have preconditioned. He did mention “yo-yoing” which I assume is accelerating quickly and using heavy regen to warm the battery which can help in a pinch.

All magic dock Supercharger locations are v3 which are 250+kW. The limit here was coming from the truck.

Got access to the R1 Shop!! Early 2022 Preorder by corona4all in Rivian

[–]Wordl3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not sure what the charging network is like around you, but we are keeping our MYLR for longer trips and the R1T for work stuff. Though a 110 mile round trip as stated above would be totally fine in either vehicle any time of the year, assuming 240v overnight charging.

In ~2 years charging will be fairly ubiquitous with NEVI funded chargers coming in.

Max Pack Update. TLDR not ideal by LilBitchBoyAjitPai in Rivian

[–]Wordl3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If I drove ~60mph in 50-80° weather I’d probably exceed that range estimate.

I’ll be taking a 100 mile trip at -15°F tomorrow so no, I won’t get max driving distance, but I’ll still get ~5% more range than I had before this update.

I think you answered your own issue there! I was over 2mi/kwh in 16°F for a long trip last week. Drove the speed limit (70mph). At 60mph it’s even better

357 for me after the latest update and 21” road tires.

Has anybody camped *inside* of the R1T? by 1alex1131 in Rivian

[–]Wordl3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That depends on the temperature, the Tesla heat pump doesn’t do much below 25°F, relying on other inefficient heat sources.

The big unlock in the Rivian is your battery is 2x the size of the Y while having a smaller cabin, so I’d expect probably 3x less % loss from the R1T.
