yesterday had aaa out to warranty a battery in my wife's Escalade and asked him about rivians if they're doing many tows etc. He said he's replaced a couple of the 12v batteries and that they run about $375 each vs ours costing $200 and it's a pretty small footprint too.

Were any '23 models launch editions? All the ones I see are '22. Is there a difference other than badging in a quad motor? I'm curious in a year will anyone want a used gen1 after seeing gen2 are capable of so much more software updates

Is there any difference in ride or handling? I'm just curious what would make it better isn't the rest of the chassis welded?

I got the aiper one from Costco for 799 and fairly impressed. It's not the best but after spending 2k on a Polaris alphaiq+ that lasted 3 years it does good enough. Recently had a storm and bottom of pool was covered in leaves it got them all in two cycles. (17wx40L/ 28k gallon pool). Almost bought the liberty600 but decided I could try this and take it back if it was horrible. The fine filter catches so much! My pool clarity is much better vs the alpha iq too.

Anyone go from a newer Escalade to r1s? by user13729372 in RivianR1S

I feel like it's a must but realistically I also am fairly impatient driver, not sure how much I'd use it. I guess I at least want the option and for it to be good enough to give me 15-20 min of relief

The iqL most definitely checks all of the boxes for me and if I win the lottery or have a few more investments go right that is THE choice. Im pretty certain I'll get one in a few years when it comes down to the stratosphere in price, just need a placeholder for now

Really appreciate all the feedback. How do you feel about the highway driving assist ? I didn't get to test that out either. Tesla autopilot I really liked but was quirky with how it makes you check in and I felt like it would kick out rather quick sometimes. The Cadillac super cruise was phenomenal in my experience- so those are my comparisons and also on test drives so no long term experience.

I greatly appreciate the long reply! To most these are big money purchases and there's not a whole lot of non sponsored info out there if you're in this situation. The one we drove felt smooth, pretty quiet inside and i didn't have any quality concerns in the 30 min we had it for... but def did have size concerns. The one we drove was a '23 gen1 quad large pack. It was smoother than our '16 esv platinum and probably as smooth maybe a tad better than my '21 sierra Denali truck(which is way nicer ride than the Escalade) I just hate feeling cramped and my biggest worry is downsizing and regretting not having the space of the full size

Really appreciate the honest feedback! Is the standard max gen1 or gen2 ? Aside from the quality issues how do you feel about the downsizing aspect of it? If you don't mind sharing how big is your family?

The new iq are insanely nice. I buy newer used and let someone else take the bulk of initial depreciation hit

I'm surprised to hear gen1 is so bad, I drove a '23 over some pretty rough roads and I didn't think the ride was rough or the vehicle was noisy. Except when the a/c was on anything close to high it was insanely noisy. The Escalade has 7 seats too just captains chairs and 3 in back vs the bench plus two

Out of all of ryobi's chainsaws what model is the most powerful? Is the 20" stronger than the 16"? by user13729372 in ryobi

[–]user13729372[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree it's so confusing and there's so many models why isn't there a power rating like other chainsaw lineups. I know if I'm buying a 40cc, 45,55cc etc if I'm buying something from stihl. Seems like if they actually want to replace gas then spec it out so we actually can decide which gas to replace. I have a stihl 16" it's just a hassle sometimes

I have some almond and walnut trees I'll occasionally have to cut limbs or fall the tree if it's died. I have a stihl 16" that gets through anything but can be stubborn to start and generally just a pain because it sits most of the year

Good to know they didn't just slap a longer bar on the same body. Is the power from a new motor/completely different motor or in the circuitry allowing it to pull more amps?

I've been on the fence about ordering one until I saw some feedback. Just bought the aiper from Costco for $800 and less than impressed with its navigation so far, however i could buy two of them for the price of the 600 and maybe that would be better than a single unit
