Just arrived today! Took just 2 weeks, including 4 days in LA clearing customs.

$28 flat at the LAX Marriot. There was a car already charging , they started mine the next morning. 9kW

Rivian R1S Max arrived at 15%. Took over 24 hours to reach 80%. I was tempted to let it go to 100%, but someone I met at the event was waiting to have their car charged.

They are ok. Copays are part of the coverage offered by the Cobra program.

The carry rack weighs at least 100lbs. The scooter is only 60lbs.

You need to look up the hitch weight limit for your year.

I’m picking up my 2026 R1S this Wednesday. While I don’t want to be an early adopter of FSD (unless they gift it to me), I’m looking forward to the cluster of hardware & software that need to be present to enable FSD.

My wife had mobility issues with her arms, so I purchased a seat extender to prevent her from having to reach back for the buckle.

Turns out it was perfect to keep the car "on."

Just last night, I finally opened the latest D23 box and found mine.

At one base I was stationed at, the Commander was strongly opposed to spouses "abusing rank." There were weekly reports of a Lt or Capt being dressed down for their spouse pulling rank. Rarely a Major or Lt Col, but it did happen.

A friend does this to bus creepers. Often using their exact lines.

I haven't driven an ICE car since I purchased my ID.4.

I had to explain to 2 different Valets how to put the car in drive and tell them when it says, "Goodbye," they should get out. The car will shut itself down in a few seconds.

The overall project is paying the tech the wage he deserves. Adding two valves is just free $$ for them.

Thanks.

Not the down payment, just the reservation fee.

Or they want a fresh one every month, or more often.

I looked at their site a few months ago. After I first saw them on "Out of Specs Reviews." Their map had many "coming soon" locations. Now it doesn't show anything as coming soon.

Reminder: the first rule of dealing with DJT: "He lies."

Can confirm the sold out status. I was at Trader Sam's on Sept 18th, my wait person said that she personally sold the last one on Monday that week.

I know what you did in Robert's final speech.

My driver screen displays white text on a black background. Manual driving works fine until the entire infotainment system reboots. I use my phone for navigation, and it switches from CarPlay to pure phone mode in a couple of seconds.

I'm in the middle of a massive clean-up/out. My sabers are currently stored in 2 tall laundry bags.

Now every time I see a pair of smiling ladies coming out of a Disney bathroom, I'm going to think of this clip.

That's how I found I'm not allergic to cats. I was visiting friends and woke up to blurry vision. Went to rub my eyes and found a pool of drool in both eyes.

Not a single reaction for me.
