New MagSafe iPhone holder for Rivian center console

Ever since I got my R1S, I've noticed that the battery range estimation hasn't been the best. Driving a Tesla for the last 3 years, it never had this kind of issue. During my last trip, the driver display shows 255mi remaining. My total trip (including 2 destinations) is 160mi so I believed I should be able to make it easily with a nice cushion. But the center display showed that I would arrive at first destination with 4mi remaining, and run out before the second destination! I knew this was false so I made the drive anyway, and arrived at second destination with 50mi remaining. If I understand correctly, the driver display range is simply the total rated range multiplied by SOC. That makes sense here, since my vehicle is rated for 370mi, 255mi is 68.9%. Coming from Tesla, I expect the number shown in the center display should account for factors like elevation, wind, traffic speed, etc. It's sad that my own mental estimation is better than Rivian's.

A friend created a new version of his popular center console iPhone holder. This new model was designed expressly for MagSafe compatible iPhones and INCLUDES the MagSafe charger.

It has an angled design for easy viewing and supports your device horizontally or vertically. He had it printed just for himself but I pleaded with him to make me one which he eventually did and it looks nothing short of perfect!

I told him to create an Etsy page so maybe he could print for other owners on-demand but for some reason, he has refused. Honestly, it looks great and I'd still try to convince him to print put more so other owners can be able to get it for their vehicles too.

If he eventually agrees, I won't hesitate to let you guys know about it.
