California is filling the void left by Trump and the GOP repealing the federal electric vehicle tax credit.
I've signed legislation creating an instant rebate for Californians going electric β $3,500 off new EVs and $1,750 off used models.
We won't forfeit the future to China.
Great write up. Towing is the Achilles heel of the Rivian platform at this point. I love every aspect of the truck until it is time to tow any distance. Larger battery packs with faster charging speeds will fix that with time but Rivian needs to start leading this charge as an Adventure based company.
@RivianTrackr@WassymBensaid The real question is, when will there be different voices to choose from? I would love a Samuel L. Jackson version of RI π€£. In SLJ voice, "You need to charge MFer!"
@AmpdAdventures@omg_tesla I will want to pick your brain about how you ran the wiring if I get an Xtrusion Rack installed. If you didn't make a video of the light install, you should have π
@AmpdAdventures I go off-roading, but want to do longer overlanding trips and have huge range anxiety about getting stuck. Some trips I want to do are the Mojave Road (which I have less anxiety about ) and the Mammoth Backcountry Discovery Trail. How are you doing your planning?
We've been hard at work building what we do best, the absolute best in class apps. This time, Battery Health. There's always so much speculation around battery health, so we wanted to wrap it up in a nice, dedicated experience. This is also in the core TezLab app, but if you're new to the community or want a beautiful, focused app, look no further than Battery Health For Tesla.
Share the love and spread some sugar (reviews on it). Simple and beautiful - work of art. And if anyone was actually in doubt, Tesla Batteries Are Incredibly Durable!

@CTZNChan@Rivian@Scout_Motors The only thing cool about this is the copycat of the Rivian Rollers, but besides that, I want simplicity, not 1000 buttons and screens when I drive.
Iβm excited to announce a partnership with @Uber. As part of this, Uber plans to invest up to $1.25 billion in Rivian and deploy up to 50,000 R2 robotaxis.
This partnership accelerates our path to Level 4 autonomy and supports our goal of building one of the safest autonomous platforms in the worldβacross both shared and personally owned vehicles.
The combination of Rivianβs rapidly growing data flywheel, our in-house RAP1 inference platform (800 TOPS), and our multi-modal perception stack provides a powerful foundation to scale autonomy quickly and responsibly over the next couple of years.
Does anyone else have a perpetual grin after launch mode? I still have a shit-eating grin 2 hours after doing multiple runs. Sometimes the least useful features are the best features.
@AmpdAdventures@RivianRoamer I just did 5-6 launches behind a warehouse! I felt like a teenage kid doing illegal stuff. lol
Oh, 0-60 in 3.8 sec with a ton of gear, my fat ass on 34" tires with slipage due to rare So Cal rain is crazy!!!
