Mind sharing the color & manufacture of the wrap?

Appreciate your insights but respectfully as someone with direct line to both Rivian & Tesla engineering, they are completely different mechanisms. The Tesla trimotor can lock substantially better than the Rivian electronic traction control. Not even close.

Actually that would be incorrect. The trimotor effectively has 3 locks as opposed to 2. that’s on top of the more precise control I mentioned.

Ability to more quickly lock/unlock each rear wheel individually while simultaneously being able to individually & precisely adjust the power to each rear wheel. And of course if you watch the video, the driver correctly uses momentum from accelerating into the mud to make it all the way...

And it was NOT even the TriMotor! ?????

Put me down for the 1st round with the CT Logo on the cutouts. I’ll happily pay for the install as well!

Really? You try impregnating all the lionesses in a pride…

What use would a refurbished part have if not being used in a customer’s vehicle? FYI Tesla does not label their parts as “refurbished” so if they were in fact doing what you suggest, it would have negative legal ramifications.

Are you suggesting Tesla would use parts from the Sent-back unit for other repairs? Seems like a good way to get sued for using old parts as new. Certainly a unit with 10,000 miles on it is not the same as a brand new one. I could see negative legal implications for Tesla if they do this…

Okay but still don’t get why you would settle for that.

Doesnt that defeat the purpose of the simplicity of the divider mechanism? On mine I just go to the spot I want it and place it with one hand. Done. ???

Do you need to remove the black center cap & nut covers (assuming you have them) in order to install the aero covers?

I figured it could be cheaper

Ok I guess I’ll be able to confirm this within the next week at my SC appointment for this issue.

isn’t the IC Board the issue? Why could that not be replaced? It is essentially bolted onto the drive unit.

Okay so it sounds like you’re certain that they could not simply replace the board without replacing the entire drive unit…I’ll see what my SC thinks about this and report back. Thanks again.

Thanks. I read that you also had issues with abnormal vibrations from the front drive unit. I don’t have that issue. Are you suggesting the vibration issue and the Top speed limited to 114 are unrelated?

Wow. How long ago did you discover this and how??

Either of you “checked” the top speed? Is it still limited to ~114mph?
