Yes, you can sell the car before it is finished!

I see a lot of rookie bugs fixed here, introduced presumably by cheap, junior developers. I don't really want that kind of code in my car.
Bye? You're regularly pretty negative about things Rivian does. Guessing you'd be happier selling and moving on.

If they want to charge us money, that they apparently need, via subscriptions, I think they should prioritize these features.
100% agree

When in the hell are they going to let us press and hold to launch Siri (or Google Assistant) instead of only allowing Alexa?
New record! The first complaint wasn’t until the third reply.

I use Siri all the time to play music and podcasts over Bluetooth. Just say “Hey Siri” to your phone lying on the (non) charging pad.
I "Hey Google" my way to most things in mine. Alexa is finicky about names and gets an "attitude" so some people I ask her to call allegedly don't exist or have contact info ?.

This is the first vehicle I have owned in almost sixty years that did not have an odometer in front of the driver.

Same here. And I would argue it’s less important to know than for an ICE car. Not nearly as many miles based service for an EV.

There are times it is useful. I've done back roads where I have been given specific mileage points for turn offs or destination points. It would be a PITA switching between the map and odometer while driving. The OPTION to have it would be wonderful. If some folks want drive without it, it should be their choice - not a denied condition.

Can’t the navigation tell you when to turn? Or if there isn’t map data in that area you wouldn’t need the map up so you could have the odometer up.

Maps are not omniscient and my Rivian satellite maps are seven years out of date.

I often find milage instructions useful. Just because you do not, is there a reason you want the rest of the owners to be denied the option? You should be be offered the option to turn it off.

This local shopping center was completed in 2017. My map version shows dirt.

Hopefully they can have the radio window auto hide when on the maps. It auto hides on every other screen but won’t auto hide when on navigation screen. Yes it’s a small thing but annoying. And I know it’s an easy fix. Also please add the clock to the center drivers screen don’t like having to look all the way over to top right of main screen for safety reasons. Yes I know it’s a small ask and not important to some but it would be nice to make it easier to check time while on the road
It’s the little things that matter.. would love to see a clock to the central drivers screen..???
