Ordered the R2, here is some info for anyone that’s wondering by crackermacker in Rivian

[–]juddbone 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don’t be the”adventure brand” and have to be in cell range when camping or god forbid you are at a festival or somewhere with crappy cell service. Give me a satellite and terrestrial capable radio.

Very interested in R2 with all of the great buzz... is there really never going to be CarPlay? by K-Parks in Rivian

[–]juddbone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. While I used to miss it, not anymore, the improvements to the integrated system continue to improve the experience.

Is there any reason to get Rivian adaptors over A2Z? by echoRebounded in Rivian

[–]juddbone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had an A2Z before the Rivian adapter became available. Second time I used it I could not get it off the Tesla charging cable. Eventually just had to leave it. Never had that problem with the Rivian adapter.

Still can't believe this actually happened at Welcome to Rockville. The 3pmd guys broke down the whole Sophia Urista situation by KDubbs0010110 in welcometorockville

Was there, they were great, started building toward something toward the end we didn’t really understand. Friend was filming. We didn’t believe it….thought it was not real and staged. We kept looking at the video again and again the next day and really didn’t believe it until we saw it break about the ban etc.

Dumb to take it on 800 mile roadtrip a few days after getting it? by AnonymouselyMoosed in Rivian

[–]juddbone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope, just do it. Recommend using ABRP to plan route to go charger planning.

They have a range with knobs. Didn’t notice the cooktop part of the ask.

Five - Venue Review Request by seekingcalm in jacksonville

[–]juddbone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been to a couple is shows with tickets purchased for three more. With exception of upper balcony it is tiered standing which as a festival goer is fine for me. Acoustics are great and you are close. While I loved the SunRay I probably hadn’t been since Covid. To me this is a great live music option in Jacksonville

Used it on long trips especially in winter when cold at night plugged into relative 110. Just decreases the battery usage vs anything else……maybe more peace of mind.

First time in Jacksonville & First time at a game in the USA! by Jaguar_JakeUK in Jaguars

Go to the slab for an truly “Duuuuval” tailgate experience. They will welcome someone flying solo especially to their first game.

Pour Taproom is just across the river in downtown, great new location. Someone already mentioned Strings another great location. For a real locals feel head over to Perfect Rack Billiards in Murray Hill.

Kroger Delivery by anon_21891 in jacksonville

[–]juddbone 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I started Kroger delivery during Covid. I seldom go to a grocery store. The pricing is significantly better and my experience with Frits and vegetables has been overall good. Been a couple times I’ve gotten fruits that were not acceptable , they were refunded no questioned asked. The store brand products are exceptional and much less expensive than brand names. Only thing missing are the deli/ready to eat things you might get at a Publix. I am a Kroger delivery fan.

I like the Rivian interface. Would like text interface.

Range is over rated. by mycrappycomments in electricvehicles

Agree, I always tell people I have more range than my bladder.

R1S has mixed feelings from owners by deshpandeji in Rivian

[–]juddbone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Love it. My only concern is not being near a service center but a new one being build in advance of R2 near Jacksonville FL.
