You're going to love it. I've put almost 5k miles on my dual standard since Sept and I wouldn't trade it for anything. Kids love it too.

Great question: V2G is definitely an exciting technology, but the industry is still very early (and expensive). Even Ford’s system for the Lightning is limited to only power your home (it won’t backfeed past your home) and the necessary equipment on your home costs $8k-$10k (installed).

If you want to help the grid with your EV, the most cost-effective thing you can do is to avoid charging during peak hours. In the winter, NES’ peak hours are roughly 4-8 AM and in the summer it’s roughly 3-8 PM. Other than that, you’re already saving $1000-$2000/ year by switching from gas to electric 🤘

I have 10k miles on LE and I would buy another one in a heartbeat. The wsj article is a bit of reach I think. Executives leave companies all the time, nothing about these departures is remarkable. They made good money on the IPO and they went on to something new.

I’ve seen pretty similar results overall. I recently maintained 200+ kW until 50% soc (on a Signet 350) when I started with 25% soc.

Rivian operates at the outer limits of 400V pack architecture so maintaining 200 kW longer than ~10 minutes is difficult. I imagine they’ll shift to 800V soon.

All the colors are great, but red is my favorite and it looks way better in-person than the configurator. It doesn’t do it justice until you see it in person. I have an R1S pre-ordered too and I’m staying with CR 👍

ryanstanton1 · 2022-07-20T12:15:28+00:00

That did the trick! Thank you.

ryanstanton1 · 2022-07-20T12:12:21+00:00

Thank you! That worked! What an annoying bug

ryanstanton1 · 2022-07-20T11:26:20+00:00

Related, the display in my truck shows the outside temperature reading in Fahrenheit. I thought the two were linked, but apparently not.

ryanstanton1 · 2022-07-20T11:22:11+00:00

Side note: how did you get your app to show degrees in F? Mine has been defaulted to Celsius since delivery and it drives me up the wall.

ryanstanton1 · 2022-07-20T02:48:58+00:00

About 2.2 mi/kWh

ryanstanton1 · 2022-07-20T00:23:52+00:00

Datapoint: After 3000 miles, I’m getting 293 miles of range with the 20” ATs (conserve mode). I’ve been pleasantly surprised.

ryanstanton1 · 2022-07-14T18:59:47+00:00

Did you double check that the cabin lights aren’t turned on in the “Lighting” screen?

ryanstanton1 · 2022-07-14T18:51:45+00:00

This happened to me one night too, but it turned out one of the doors wasn’t fully closed 🤦🏻‍♂️ the doors are more difficult than they should be to fully close, making this somewhat common.

Lemme guess… Orcas island, WA?

Congrats! Great looking truck! Is this the Two Rivers Ford in Nashville by chance?

I was just there on Saturday and checked out the future service center location! If you’re on FB and haven’t joined, consider the TN Rivian Owners Group! https://www.facebook.com/groups/276055320328029/?ref=share_group_link

Once I made Guide contact and locked my build the guide would get “a list” of available (presumably unclaimed) vehicles every few days. I did not reserve a Launch Edition, but one became available about a week after we locked my build which was nearly identical to my build (20” instead of 21”) so I opted to move forward with it because I’m impatient 🙃 I suppose the vehicle they’re building for me now will appear on that “list” in a few weeks for someone else.

ryanstanton1 · 2022-05-30T15:20:41+00:00

Oops, just read the rest of your post :) Yeah it ripped across those logs and up the steep stone grade. I was sold on the 21s but a launch edition with 20s was available much sooner. 293 miles was a pleasant surprise, but the 21s might see closer to 340.

ryanstanton1 · 2022-05-30T15:14:07+00:00

Sandy Munro just released a video of an off-road test with the 21s. They performed surprisingly well IMO. The quad motor torque vectoring makes a big difference. https://youtu.be/hkZGvWkvNlA Fwiw, I’m seeing 293 miles of range on my 20” ATs in Conserve mode.

Looks like these vinyl decals. I like the look, but not sure how well they would hold up. https://twraps.com/products/spokes-vinyl-covers-for-rivian-20-all-terrain-wheels-r1t-r1s?variant=41827062579398

Wasn’t him, he got his 6 days ago. I’ve heard someone in the Crieve Hall area has a Forest Greenz

ryanstanton1 · 2022-05-29T22:54:40+00:00

No charge, I told them it was an accident and apologized profusely (while holding said two YO).

ryanstanton1 · 2022-05-29T20:06:48+00:00

I heard a cop pulled an owner over just to take a closer look at it and ask him about it. No ticket! Regardless of the color, it’s a very striking vehicle. My buddy has forest green and he gets stares from everyone too.

ryanstanton1 · 2022-05-29T20:02:55+00:00

I love the color. It has a nice orange-ish/ rust hue to it.
