@Jordan_Schiefer @itskyleconner It’s option D or E. It’s a coolness factor and a combo of the other things. R2 gets an A- on coolness and would be an A+ with UHF having point to point.

That’s the biggest miss vs. Tesla imo and the Rivian is more expensive.

[Mike Jones @evtech99]

@RivianTrackr What about it?

[Mike Jones @evtech99]

@Hilbe @Rivian Magic City! They will love it

[Mike Jones @evtech99]

@RivianTrackr Pretty cool!

[Mike Jones @evtech99]

@Hilbe We saw one in Knightdale this morning!

[Mike Jones @evtech99]

@Hilbe Their Eastern Service center head who lives in MD covers DC area down to Knightdale and has an R2 in that color….. so, I’d assume that’s his?

[Mike Jones @evtech99]

@RivianTrackr I can’t wait for @itskyleconner to do a full 100% to 0 range test between the two! He needs to have an R2 with the 21’s and one with the 20” all terrains.

[Mike Jones @evtech99]

@RivianTrackr @Rivian I wish they were covered.

[Mike Jones @evtech99]

@IAmThatK3vin @itskyleconner That’s hurtful. Too bad your mother didn’t have that abortion and make the world a better place!

[Mike Jones @evtech99]

@Hilbe @RivianRoamer Now, you can drive to Rivian HQ in 2028 to pickup your R2 with LiDAR!

[Mike Jones @evtech99]

@RivianTrackr Tesla is rated for higher efficiency on the highway but the way their efficiency numbers are inflated, I think Rivian may be more efficient on the highway.

[Mike Jones @evtech99]

@RivianTrackr @itskyleconner @Pi1991Matt Have Kyle do it in a Tesla and you in a Rivian to compare. It will be 2027 or 2028 before Rivian will be ready and prob 2030 before they catch where Tesla is today but would be a very cool head to head comparison.

[Mike Jones @evtech99]

@RivianTrackr @JerimiahLee That would have been a legit 460-480 and would have truly hit 400 on the highway! Would have been an amazing EV road-tripper with 250 miles, stop to hit the bathrooms, buy food and you have 325 w/o EV charging impacting you at all

[Mike Jones @evtech99]

@Hilbe That would have made it one of only a couple ever true 400 mile highway range EVs!

I really hope they come up with a 100 or a 105 kWh battery in the future R2s

[Mike Jones @evtech99]

@Hilbe I’m getting mine from Irvine. You still in for the day trip?

[Mike Jones @evtech99]

@itskyleconner Slow

[Mike Jones @evtech99]

@ChadMoran @scottbuscemi Thank you Chad!

[Mike Jones @evtech99]

@Hilbe If 6 weeks from configurator is true (or 8 week) then they didn’t start real customer deliveries in Spring as it ends on June 20th.

[Mike Jones @evtech99]

@Hilbe He’s right. It’s been awful
