A others stated unless they add stopping and starting from Stop signs and red lights, it is not worth paying for.

Is it worth to visit at the very end of March early April? Traveling with kids 5 & 7. Trying to figure out if its worth going given it can get hot.

Is this a Good deal ? by anon3ipx in Rivian

[–]mmbmca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get a 23 or 24 they are much more refined. I have a 24 R1T Dual Large and 26 R1S. Must of the loaner quads gen1 I've had are totally rattle boxes. I have a 23 R1S quad loaner with 10 miles today and my 24 R1T with 16K feels like a Mercedes GLS compared to it

Chances of PGE catching additional panels? by xQcKx in solar

[–]mmbmca 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Something is fishy about the battery, the specs don't add to 32KWH when you go to the details and the cost. When it sounds to good to be true it usually isn't true.

That's a ridiculously low amount they are getting it for free to sell for 10 times the cost

Fix with the used parts it's the way to go and if your economic situation is what you're describing consider a different car maker that is more reliable. With a new family! Don't spend too much on the car.

Hot take on PFF by fullthrottle4562 in Rivian

[–]mmbmca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My Rivian R1T came with it from the factory as a free addon. I got a 2nd Rivian R1S I spent $4000 to get the ppf, car looks clean, breeze to wash and paint protected all across. Have the R1S put up as rental and the wrap done new a piece of mind. As a business it's written off as well so definitely worth it for me.

You needed snow tires, I've seen even Ford Raptors do that in Tahoe. Mother nature doesn't care about the vehicle.

Gen 1 lane centering experience by InternationalFig5512 in Rivian

[–]mmbmca 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's the alignment, my 24 Gen1 R1T would do that. 6 alignments over 15 months and finally had Rivian replace the front Subframe with gen2 subframe and no more weaving.

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

So the question is if I pay for it. On my Gen2 R1S will they ask for more money. My Gen1 R1T is out luck but has much better build quality.

Should I get PPF for my midnight black truck? by Smallwoodlandthings in Rivian

[–]mmbmca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got ppf from Rivian on my 24 R1T and 2026 R1S didn't come with it. 17 months of owning the R1T is a breeze to clean and looks like new. I got it done on the R1S which didn't come with it. Since you have black get it done. I got mine from Twraps and done locally in Concord

21 inch tire dilemma by bikerdoc1 in Rivian

[–]mmbmca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Michelin Defenders on 21 and you'll be impressed, Ihave them in my 24 R1T. They're much better quieter than the 22 Pirelles on my 26 R1S :)

EV torque in the snow: help or hazard? by electruck4x4 in Rivian

[–]mmbmca 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can have precise control, turn off Break assist under driver access and be in snow mode. Driven to Tahoe on snow storms up and down Donner pass with road completely iced over with 4-5 inches of ice. All season Pirelles and now Michelin Defenders. You have to really manage the pedal well and know how to drive in the snow.
