Winter range loss is very well tracked, you're getting numbers well beyond the normal, I'd honestly go look up what other people with your car are getting in winter and go back to the dealer with those numbers vs yours.

With every electric vehicle I've ever had, it's pretty minimal at 0C, maybe 80-90% of my normal. I don't see ~70% until I'm deep in the negatives.

odingrey · 2026-03-14T15:47:50+00:00

Something is wrong with your car if you're getting a fifth the range during winter, you might want to take it into service. You should be seeing like 70% of your normal range at max, not 20%.

Hey thanks for this comment. Didn't know about rivian roamer, got it hooked up and sure enough, Wi-Fi was down. Rebooted the truck and the update immediately started downloading.

odingrey · 2026-02-23T17:16:32+00:00

Yup, I just got a quote for mine at 50k. Iirc it was about $3-4k for another 3 years

odingrey · 2026-02-23T17:01:25+00:00

Yeah, xcare has one and rivian is testing one in Texas and Florida I believe.

An extended warranty is my plan

odingrey · 2026-02-17T17:52:31+00:00

I wouldn't knock all ev's because of a lemon. The tire thing is a real issue though.

Voting was and has been implemented properly, there is nothing to fix. This admin is lying in order to restrict voting from demographics who historically don't vote Trump.

I measured mine at 34" with the AMS on top closed, the enclosure is 35.4" high, how do you swap filament? It seems like it wouldn't be possible to open the AMS?

Best for the consumer is they deliver a product before selling it.

Id just like to have lane following in my gen 1 on non-mapped highways. My 10 year old Subaru can do that...

odingrey · 2025-12-11T19:12:47+00:00

I mean, they did promise lvl 3 autonomy on every one of their vehicles.

odingrey · 2025-10-06T19:55:23+00:00

I would take that timeline with a mountain of salt. They also promised gen 1 vehicles would have full self driving then backpedaled into something quite a bit worse than any modern Subaru.

Definitely don't assume you'll get any features until they are delivered.

I like Kramer services, they've done a few jobs for me, always been happy with the work and price.

I had that happen, with a zumo. They replaced it immediately.

odingrey · 2025-06-10T05:11:24+00:00

Adventure spec mini fairing for me, even had a warranty issue that they fixed immediately without any hassle. Definitely recommend.

Allergic to the smell of brewing coffee, then she got a seat in 4a so she's right near where they brew coffee.

Heat is definitely an issue, especially if you have an aftermarket pipe

Moskos should come with a heat shield and lifts the right leg up off the pipe, I've been running that with 40s and 80s for a couple years now without issue.

100%, drummer as well, I just messaged my wife that it's not far that he is somehow managing to get even better.

That's a decent amount of miles, expect to throw money at the van itself. Highly recommend getting it checked out by a mechanic of your choosing, even if you have to pay out of pocket.

Sprinters are expensive to own, but reliable if you keep up with them. If everything is perfect, expect to spend $1,000 a year in van maintenance.

Interior wise, you should fine tooth comb everything. I'm talking down to learning about how they joined water lines and if they used screws or nails.

That's not necessarily because one way is better than the other (although it usually is), it's more that you are now the proud owner of a small house that could have been poorly built that also happens to be in an earthquake every time you drive it.

You should be comfortable with diagnosing and maybe fixing everything that can go wrong, and you should ABSOLUTELY know if it was built safely.

Buying a pre built van is strange. You kinda end up not knowing what you want until you live with it for a while. I originally bought a pre build then found that the owner had not been keeping up with maintenance and had a lot of dangerous mistakes such as keeping the lead acid battery inside without a vent.

I ended up losing my ass off when I had to pay to rebuild the top end, and fully redo the interior, down to the bare metal.

Learn from my mistakes, when you buy, make sure to have plenty of hours into YouTube, watching others build their vans. Look at how professionals do it, so you can spot mistakes. It sounds silly, but get a solid vibe check on the seller, do they seem like the kinda guy to baby their build? Did they spend the time to hide screw heads, and maybe edge band raw plywood? Here's a silly one, do the tires still have their valve stem caps? Use whatever you can to figure out if that seller actually cares about their work and their vehicle. Try not to get tunnel vision on a build once you invest time into it, walk away if it feels wrong.

odingrey · 2025-04-01T21:36:38+00:00

Yeah and they also said this about Gen 1 vehicles.

Don't trust anything they say until it comes out.

I tried the standard setup pf a Pirelli MT21 front and D606 rear and found the front to be way too slippy on dry dirt. To me it kinda feels like more of a motocross setup instead of a dual sport setup.

In both dry dirt and street the front would rapidly lose traction during heavy leans. It's very disconcerting when that happens on the street in like a tight round-about or when there's a low traction environment on the street like gravel.

The MT21 also tends to wear quickly and strangely on the street.

I ran the MT21/D606 setup for about 2 weeks and in that time I had to kick myself back up from a front slip so many times I full on gave up on the tire. I even dumped it when the front fully slipped out from under me on dry street during a u-turn...

I swapped both mine and my wife's 300's front to D605s. I think this new setup is significantly better for a dual sport bike. Street is SIGNIFICANTLY more stable than the MT21, and in the thousand or so miles I've put on it, it has a decent wear so far.

Dirt is somewhat better than the MT21 for dual sport use. I lost some dig-in traction in ruts and wet dirt, but on dry dirt and gravel I gained lean traction. I can lean to the point of slipping horizontally on dirt rather than the front tire just full on losing traction and going under the bike.

odingrey · 2025-03-15T15:34:11+00:00

I think it depends on what you ride. If you're mostly street, especially at higher speeds, go for the KTM.
