So I was doing my return trip from my daughters house which I’ve done many times. I charged to 90% 178 miles from home. Watched my usage very carefully. Averaged 1.7 miles/ kilowatt hour. I kept resetting trip one to make sure I was OK. The last time I checked, I had 22% battery which is 28 kWh...

The DOE has defined an EV-Ready Corridor as a highway that has 4 fast chargers per 50 miles. My question: How does that compare to a gas-ready corridor? If we were to shift to all-EV's, how many fast chargers do you think we would need on highways to "make EV travel as stress-free and...

Lately I have noticed that if I charge to 100%, it takes several miles of driving to drop to 99%. (Lariat ER with 16,000 miles and maybe 20 DCFC charges) So this morning I decided to record my drive to see what's up. (As many of you know, the actual capacity of the batteries is 148 kWh. It...

My portable charger stays plugged in to a 240V outlet on a 60a 50a dedicated circuit. It is my only home charging device for the past year. Lately, more and more, I am noticing that I don't consistently get the 6 kW charge speed that I should get. Instead I get 3 kW. The display shows part...

I just did an 8.2 mile straightaway test with the cruise control set at 65, air temperature mid 60s, zero wind, zero accessories on except the fan on low, tire pressure at 40, on level ground at sea level. Pushing my own air with NO TRAFFIC, the truck got 1.8 mi. per kWh over that stretch. I...

I’ve had lousy luck trying to charge on the road. Enough so that I told myself this was an Intown truck and we’d be only using my wife’s car on the road. I broke that rule today. Drove from Corpus Christi to Austin. I stopped at the EA at Walmart in San Antonio to charge. Three of the eight...

My FCSP is on EBay now with starting bid $700, buy it now $1,000. I will sell it here for $825 plus shipping of $35-50 FedEx ground. Last one on EBay sold for $835 after 17 bids. Message me now if you want it.

I am still using the 120V portable charger. I have not gotten an electrician to the house yet. Yesterday, when the charge state hit 92%, I used the app to Stop Charging. This morning, about 12 hours later, I walked into the garage and heard an audible hum from the truck. It was off. No...

Does the CCS connection make the Rivian think you are trying to DC charge? I am asking whether you have actually done it, not whether you think it’s possible. Thanks.

I want to install a hot shower system in the frunk for winter surf sessions. A demand pump like this one and an inline heater could send water from an ice chest or bladder to a shower head. Problem is I can't find an inline water heater with energy demand lower than the 2.4kW that the frunk...

I have been playing around with 1-pedal lately. Not sure how much it affects range, but it does annoy me when I take my foot off the pedal to slip on sandals or something. Quite the deceleration. There are not a lot of hills where I live, but coming down the intracoastal bridge the other day I...

I have had my Lightning less than a week, and all I have at home is 120V charging so far. I took a trip around south central Texas, including Houston, and found that every station I went to delivered far less energy than advertised. For instance: EA station in Columbus, the two 350 KW...

A lot of people watch very carefully to see when their truck is produced and when they might get it. Here’s a little about my experience from Ford. Email notification in July of production week of 9/05. Starting 9/05, I watched the Ford.com page for 2+ weeks without an update, even though I...

A couple of threads have addressed this, but I wanted to see whether we could come together here and work on a solution, for Texas specifically, but for others as well. My experience: I was called up in Wave 7 by a dealer (autonation Corpus Christi) and offered a to place an order. I had some...
