Tacoma Vs. Rivian

They have one in solar?

 

I’d hold out for the geothermal model /s (just in case)

 

Nope. Gas sucks.

 

They lost 80% of their range just sitting there parked. I don’t understand how any of you guys can be ok with that and brush it off as people being unprepared. 80 fricken percent gone, doing nothing! It doesn’t matter if they had charged up right before camping or not, they still would lost 80% of range doing nothing. How is that acceptable. Rivian did a fix to save 15%, that’s still 65% loss sitting at idle WTF.

 

I’d admit I was wrong if I actually was.

 

Who said that was okay or acceptable? Of course it's an issue. Not a permanent one though. There goes that reading comprehension thing again.

 

“What's more, this exact scenario no longer exists”

 

Yikes.

 

They lost 80% of the range total. That includes driving and overnight loss.

They lost 10% per night. Which is still a lot. I know, anecdotally, around here a Tesla will lose about 5% left unplugged on a pretty cold night (below 30)

I don't disagree that 10% isnt a lot. That's a pretty shitty number though. I wouldn't be ok with that. They took it out to "test" it so they knew there would be some limitations.

I dont need an article to know that an EV, in the cold mountains, may not perform as well as expected.

 

Maybe the people the immediately blamed the problem on the campers.

 

No. They lost 80% of what they had when they parked the truck until when they left. 153 down to 32.

 

How exactly does one position this adapter to fill their frunk?

 

old fashion

i like that

Works on elbow grease and carbohydrates.

 

Too bad they didn’t go the Lightning route with their frunk. Which is a horrible name for it, who coined that term anyways?

 

VW I think.

 

down south we call that pig fat and whiskey piss

 

Haha. Well whatever spins the augur.

 

The other option was “froot”, so…

 

They stopped at 53% and left at 11%. That's roughly 10% of total a night. So sure... They also lost 80% of what was available after they stopped by the fourth day.
