Check how far a Rivian R1T can go towing a pop-up camper! @Rivian @RJScaringe @allelectricfam @Out_of_Spec @InsideEVs youtu.be/IQxOp9sKAh8

@brandenflasch I wonder if they charge extra for 1 or 2 ton trucks...

lol I would not pay that

@stealer82 @brandenflasch That's what the Trailboss is. The RST was supposed to be sporty. I can tell the ride is slushier with these tires on asfalt. But much smoother in dirt roads. I like the 18s better too!

@andrebdp @brandenflasch GM should’ve done this from the factory.

Fine, I want one

@OutofSpecDetail Meanwhile my Silverado shows 211 kWh capacity with 34k miles, 60% DC charging and 2 years old... Started with 215.

My dad just ran a battery health test on his 2023 Model 3 Performance. 91% after 30,000 miles. This car has only been fast charged 5 times in its life. Daily charged to 60%

@na_option As a Tesla fanboy, I understand why you don't believe it since you were promised 300+ and delivered 200+. Let's wait and see real world testing before reaching conclusions.

@andrebdp You. You just read 434 mi range and believe it 😄

I’ve noticed automakers targeting 400+ range with massive batteries. It’s marketing for those that compare apples to oranges. They’ll compare Teslas 300+ range and think it’s inferior, solely on range numbers. IYKYK. Don’t be fooled. $TSLA

@fbctadoido Pede pra Janja mostrar os recibos das viagens dela!

Pede pra ele mostrar os comprovantes então Eu nunca vi, e vocês?

@ionnaofficial Great thanks. It's my favorite charging location.

@andrebdp Great question! We took Blaine offline for a bit while we give her an upgrade...a.k.a., build a brand new canopy!! Should only take a few weeks and she'll be back online and better than ever. 😉

@ionnaofficial any updates on there site in Blaine MN? It's been offline for a couple of days. What happened?

@brandenflasch @MaxPatten Absolutely. Look at Sioux Falls SD. There is only 1 hotel with complimentary 19 kW charging. Everything else is above $0.40/kWh and slower. No better options.

Is per-kWh price a factor when you choose which DCFC to stop at on a road trip? We’re finally at the point where major routes have major options (I remember when that wasn’t the case!), and those options come with a real range of amenities, power levels, and pricing. Personally, I’ll go out of my way to avoid just about any DCFC priced above $0.50/kWh - I typically pay under $0.40/kWh, assuming ~200kW+ / 500A+ to pull full power on my F-150 Lightning. That usually puts me on IONNA, Mercedes-Benz High-Power Charging, and Tesla Superchargers with membership ($12.99/month is paid for in the savings of a single charge on my Lightning, though it's very annoying I can't use PnC and get the discounted rate). For AC / Level 2, I won’t bother plugging in unless it’s below $0.20/kWh (and only if I actually need it, like at a hotel) or free - opportunity charging or better parking. Public charging is still priced too high across the board, and hotel AC charging is the worst offender. Hotels need to view EV charging as an amenity - more like the pool or gym - rather than a profit center like the overpriced minibar snacks. Having charging attracts guests that would otherwise pick a different hotel that has (reasonably priced) charging. What are your thresholds?

@cybrtrkguy Left home with 80% and drove 221 miles. Still range to spare:

> Left home with 92% > Drove 233 miles > Required charge of 38 minutes in the middle of the trip. > Not towing I need more range. There is no other option. That is ridiculous.

@BillyM2k So you mean this could have been an email?

the speech coulda been 30 seconds instead of 25 minutes

@RogerioCorreia_ E se empresas pararem de contratar mulheres por medo de ter problemas com a lei? Uma lei complicada, muito vaga.

Por que o Nicolas Ferreira tá tão incomodado com um projeto de lei que protege as mulheres? 🤔

@ZattarRafael Aqui em Minneapolis a gente chama esse pessoal de Ricer…

Você compraria esse carro na faixa etária de 45 mil ou ta caro?

@CNviolations Someone will have to practice the gag reflex… 🤣🤣🤣

Anyone?

@itskyleconner Don’t trust the BMS!

All of you are sleeping on VinFast I’m at 23% and will arrive at 32% in 15 miles This is unprecedented efficiency

Hey @gork , analyze this post

@RobertKennedyJr face says it all 🤣🤣. Eat real food! @SecKennedy MAHA!

@JeffMG68 For reference: youtu.be/zaIOw7gHtPc?si… Bring Popcorn! It's a fun video.

Has anyone done the 'Cannonball Run' from York City's Red Ball Garage to the Portofino Hotel in Redondo Beach, California? With EVs? And if so, how long did it take?

@JJ_Zarathustra @SawyerMerritt 😂. You don't get it. In 24 minutes, I can add an entire cybertruck battery in kWh in the Silverado (120 kWh). The cybertruck takes 1 hour to complete this task. Cybertruck is more efficient, but not by a factor of 2... Maybe just 20% more...

@andrebdp @SawyerMerritt No, you're still not getting it... After 12 minutes the Silverado has charged ~120 miles, after 12 minutes Cybertruck has also charged ~120 miles. The only advantage the Silverado has is that it can go ~100 miles further on the first leg, after that they're equal.

NEWS: GM says it has no plans to cancel the Chevy Silverado EV or GMC Sierra EV, despite Ford cancelling the F-150 Lightning and Stellantis cancelling its all-electric Ram pickup. GM: “There are no specific sales objectives tethered to the truck’s longevity, and no plans to cut production at this time. The Silverado EV having the longest range in the segment – up to 493 miles – it can tow up to 12,500 pounds, which we know our truck customers demand, and haul up to 1,800 pounds of payload.” This is good. The more EV options for consumers, the better.
