    I've been behind the wheel of my Launch Edition Rivian R1T for over a year now, and after driving it for 20,000+ miles, some things have changed since my initial review. So today, let's talk about what it's like owning and driving a Rivian R1T!

    2022 R1T…phone charger works fine. When in motion whatever is charging tends to move around so just like at home if it’s not perfect on there it doesn’t charge. I think the idea was meant for being parked or at least keep a hand on it and it does work fine.

      Well, as the owner of 2 Teslas, their autopilot leaves much to be desired. They will phantom brake on you for no reason. I did not trust using even basic adaptive cruise control in my Model Y when I had cars behind me on a road trip last week. The car changes lanes for no good reason and camps out in the left lane. Basic things Tesla just can’t get right. The phantom braking has only gotten worse in my nearly 5 years of owning this brand. Don’t be fooled.

    • @tonyp3693
      @tonyp3693 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I own 3 Teslas and use Autopilot everytime I drive them. I love it. I hardly need to touch the steering wheel all the way to work. I drove from Houston to LA recently, and Autopilot made the drive so much easier. Autopilot is clearly shown to be safer than human drivers and is getting better with every update. I would not buy an EV without that option and the Tesla charging network. I am considering a Rivian but will not buy one without Autopilot/FSD.

      @@tonyp3693 What is your experience with phantom braking? Driving from Dallas to Denver, I had at least 7-8 episodes of sudden braking with nothing in front of me during my first day using FSD. I’ve done many road-trips in my Teslas, including from TX to Maine and to Idaho and back. I’ve always had at least one PB a day. But this latest road-trip was just awful using FSD. Plus, there is now no way to disable auto lane changes in FSD like there used to be. The car is stupid and just hates being in the right lane. It will move to the left and camp there. They’ve clearly made changes in the tech that are for the worse compared to a year or two ago.

    • @tonyp3693
      @tonyp3693 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I had PB's on occasions in past but not with the latest versions. I have 2023.7.20 right now.
      The closest I have to PBs are rapid slow downs when the cars in the next lane drift too close to the lane makers next to me but, still, not that often.
      Try pushing the right steering wheel button to the right then choose "minimal lane change" after activating Autopilot.
