  1. Loose A pillar cover

    Yes, they did this fix at my 60k mile comprehensive under warranty.
  2. Gen1 LE R1S HV Battery Failure & Replacement

    Hi Folks, Sadly my wife’s used R1S woke up a week ago with 110F cabin temp and a critical battery fault. Towed to Hudson SC. Folks there found an HVAC issue at first, swapped the HVAC out, and then, as I kind of expected, when the tow came to pick it up, another HV Battery fault occurred. So...
  3. Will Gen1 R1's ever get text ability?

    Agreed, that’s how I’ve been feeling as well.
  4. Will Gen1 R1's ever get text ability?

    Speaking of- When are we getting the AI assistant/text for Gen2? I can’t deal with Alexa, not worth trying.
  5. Anyone considering trading their R1T for an LE R2?

    Yeah, at the end of the day, it would have to be such a great deal for me to consider it. I highly doubt I will, while minor, I hated the spring close on my former MYLR in the winter of Maine, so I don’t think I could give that up. While it feels like the closely rear window opening could...
  6. Anyone considering trading their R1T for an LE R2?

    Yeah, sadly no leasing in Maine for Rivian. But yeah, no real issue for me, just curious given the priority status owners will supposedly get in their R2 orders and whether that will actually translate to many trade-ins.
  7. Anyone considering trading their R1T for an LE R2?

    Definitely my question as well. Probably won’t get an actual answer until June.
  8. Anyone considering trading their R1T for an LE R2?

    Second row has more space though, right? I don’t think I would ever do this, can’t imagine letting go of my truck, but curious if they’ll get any takers.
  9. Anyone considering trading their R1T for an LE R2?

    I love my T (26’ Tri Max), and love having a truck (my wife won’t let go of the R1S and still need it for family trips/camping), but I’m also interested in the $50k differential with the LE R2. Anyone else considering swapping? 4400# tow covers my boats, and the S can do 7700# so could always...
  10. R2 Frunk height for manual closing?

    Oh yeah, the MY trunk opens at a crazy pitch though, I had to adjust mine just so it wouldn’t hit my garage when we had ours. I can’t imagine this will be as high and kneel setting should be automatic at park like it can be for R1.
  11. We Built Our First Camp Kitchen in a Basement. Three Years Later, We're Saying Thank You. - Thunderbolt Adventure

    Ah, I’m torn! We have both an S and a T. We will camp with both with an air cruiser RTT. I’m struggling to decide between the field kitchen and the camp kitchen. I love the camp kitchen, but I also like the ability to have the field kitchen in either vehicle…
  12. 2026 R1S deposit made. Reliability feedback?

    Congrats! We own two Rivian's (Gen1 LE R1S with 83k miles and counting) and a Gen2 Tri R1T (2026). In 18 months of Rivian ownership, the only "issue" I ever had was detailed in my post a while back, and Rivian handled it better than I could imagine any other car manufacturer based on my...
  13. R2 Colors List Revealed! Launch Green, Borealis, Midnight, Forest Green, Esker Silver, Catalina Cove, Glacier White, Half Moon Grey 🎨

    Really? I thought compass was only ever quad, maybe there was a Gen1 Dual variant that I’ve never seen on used inventory. Definitely not Dune, pretty sure it was one spec for both T and S as a Tri.
  14. R2 Colors List Revealed! Launch Green, Borealis, Midnight, Forest Green, Esker Silver, Catalina Cove, Glacier White, Half Moon Grey 🎨

    Well, does make me happy I got a storm blue R1T. Looks like Compass Yellow, Dune, and Storm Blue will be the only colors exclusive to Tri/Quad R1’s now.
