I have the Tesla universal wall charger for my Rivian. It worked fine up until about 2 months ago. Now the first time I plug it in I get a failure and have to do it a 2nd time, which always works. I suspect it was a sw upgrade on the charger side that introduced this behavior.

It’s raining, seven PM, Powerwalls doing what they do. House is lit, fridge is cold, internet hasn’t got a clue. And yeah, I’ve got a Lightning—sure— great truck, fast, tows like a champ. But using that as a house backup is like grabbing a flashlight to light a camp. Why hunt for keys in a...

RAV4 EV even with a production run of under 4,000 vehicles has maintained a fairly healthy repair ecosystem, which makes it a reasonable reference point when thinking about benchmarks for long-term serviceability.

Sure, if it makes you feel better.. I paid $77K for the mobile charger nearly 4 years ago, and it's been working just fine day to day since then.

It's not on the window sticker...

It was free for me, so no complaints.

I'd be more concerned about over paying by about $7K.

2025: 6,247 kWh x $0.00/kWh = $0 Thank you ESG!

Discontinued?

I'd rather have zone lighting in the app like we had in 2022 when I bought the truck. Don't think I'll ever see that back. I didn't have pro power in the app but just deleted schedule departure and noticed I got it now.

I don't think paying $0.11/kW is that high for being in SoCal.

We’re deep in the weeds, let’s all take a breath, Arguing frunks like it’s life or it’s death. Who made it first, who shipped it when, Was it Ford, Rivian, Tesla, back then? It’s a box in the front. It holds your stuff. Groceries, tools, maybe ego—enough. Some want a frunk, some want a gen...

NGL this is kinda crazy. You did enough research to know about battery chemestry and LFP vs NMC which is like super nerd level stuff but didnt double check what was actually on the truck you were buying. That info wasnt hidden. The window sticker and ford trim pages woulda shown no ACC no lane...
