  1. Stripped TP55 Bolt - how to extract?

    Wonder if I should just replace them with a regular hex headed bolt.
  2. Stripped TP55 Bolt - how to extract?

    Same question here. Do you have to square the existing round head by grinding it first or just slip the closest sized extractor socket over it without modification.
  3. Why stock getting hammered last few days?

    As an old tesla investor (cost basis $125) I’d like to add my two cents. I invested in Tesla after we bought our first MS in 2013. It was so good that I thought there is no way these guys can go out of business. Their product is so good someone will just buy them. Went thru some pretty serious...
  4. Any good options to install tie down points in gear tunnel?

    Greetings from Battle Ground! I agree. There should be some way to secure stuff in there. I have a propane tank that needs to be refilled and first thought gear tunnel but wondered about it rolling around etc. Lying it on it’s side would help but not completely. Piling up things to keep it in...
  5. Welcome to Half Moon Grey, now available on R1S / R1T and R2

    The wife would trade our tesla in for a Calif dune R2 today!
  6. Autonomous Hands-Free Highway Assist Driving and Alexa

    I did this trip last year from Vancouver WA last year. Took I-5 and had to turn off Hands free in the mountains for the same reason. But most of the trip was great. I will probably pay the monthly fee for our return trip in the Aug/sept timeframe.
  7. VW-Rivian joint venture hits milestone, unlocking another $1B investment in Rivian

    I’m a big Rivian fan and plan to invest hopefully by the end of the summer. I am surprised given the EU’s express desire to not be dependent on US tech. Microsoft products are banned in gov use. The EU rejected using Space x for launching their Starlink satellite alternative. Using a French...
  8. New or Used R1T… looking for your $.02

    I’d wait until the impact of the R2 is clear. Then I’d go for a Gen 2. They will definitely see a drop. Not necessarily super big but I think the spread between gen 1 and two might shrink. Particularly if you wait until next year. Why settle for less for a couple of thousand.
  9. 2026.03 Update will revamp Kneel Mode

    I find that double clicking the steering wheel button seems to work most of the time. I do use a slight delay between clicks. Funny that the garage house icon works pretty well. Just the steering wheel that seems to be intermittent.
  10. Where $RIVN is Headed in 2026?

    So why has no one opined on yesterday's 26% jump? Seems like mostly excellent R2 reviews.
  11. Is it OK to keep the height setting low when driving around town?

    Did you do the install yourself? Had a hell of a time getting torx bolts loosened and then torqued back to spec. Did it in 45 degree weather.
  12. Tips for using Rivian as power bank for storm

    I had a Lightning with the Propower on board option. LOVED it and refused to get an R1T until I saw a post this forum about Li generators. After researching the hell out of it, I got a Yoshino B4000. Plenty big enough to run my cable bx, tv's computer room with Starlink. I even used it to run my...
  13. Rivian Digital Key Tutorial (How to Install, Use, Share)

    Great write up but my question below is for those of us (that would be me) that don't know the differences between NFC and UWB/BLE. Is this digital key just making the app more reliable responsive than blue tooth alone? Not adding additional features e.g. open the gear tunnel, etc. The wallet...
  14. Washington WTB: 2023–2024 R1T
