  1. Michelin Defender LTX Platinum in SNOW performance?

    I switched from Pirelli to the Defender Platinum about 6 months ago, but I haven't used them in the snow yet. There is a post from 2022 that said they are "just ok" in the snow. I can believe that because I have wondered about the tread design. The center part doesn't look like it could grab...
  2. Gear Guard failed me..... didn't record this door dent

    Yeah...I am saying it should. I've had many cars that will alarm if a break-in is attempted or are a hard jar. With the sophisticated electronics and cameras on my Rivian, you'd think it would protect the entire vehicle and not just the gear.
  3. Gear Guard failed me..... didn't record this door dent

    Cameras are supposed to see and capture events, and the Alarm is supposed to sound. Otherwise, someone could break in without any concerns.
  4. Gear Guard failed me..... didn't record this door dent

    LISTEN UP, RIVIAN! THIS NEEDS TO BE CORRECTED ASAP! The Cameras and Security Alarms are supposed to help protect our vehicles.
  5. Gear Guard failed me..... didn't record this door dent

    That's probably why I have no evidence. Whoever did this did not stick around. Thus, no recording. NOT GOOD!
  6. Gear Guard failed me..... didn't record this door dent

    Well, it happened to me while I was parked in a shopping center. Cameras were on and recording but did NOT capture the event. Hard enough hit to put a basketball-size dent in the side, but I never got a "security" alarm on my phone either. Would love to have caught the person, but nothing...
  7. Rivian R3 wins Design of the Year in 2024 Top Gear Awards

    Well... just flag me as a "weirdo" because I don't like the chopped-off rear-end styles on any car. ? Where can Ma put the groceries? Is the frunk cooled? I guess loads home from COSTCO would have to go in the back seat. I might change my mind after seeing one in person. Heck, with enough...
  8. Physical buttons in a car/vehicle are a bug!

    To each his own. Personally, I like my R1T's perfect combination of tactile buttons and touch-sensitive controls. However, I do get annoyed at times when touching a control and it does not respond on the first touch. Also, in looking at the button-bliss interior of the future VW "R1T/S...
  9. 30 AMP 120 V charging

    I have a 30amp TT and plan to use my R1T to tow it. I will plug the trailer into the 30-amp plug on the campground's pedestal. Can I simultaneously plug in my R1T to the 50-amp plug in? If so, is an EV adapter needed? What amp setting in my Rivian is needed?
  10. What’s up with all of the Rivian bashing on here?

    AMEN! I love my R1T Launch, even with some quirks. This Forum is often a "gripe board" for owners (and possibly even non-owners). I've owned more cars and trucks than I can count, and not one of them was 100% perfect. Rivian is the closest one, though. :)
  11. 2024.35 update - audio nerfed ( back to being crap!)

    I AGREE. I had it sounding great but now it sounds like a common audio system. No longer impressive. "Ear-gerly" wishing Rivian would fix this.
  12. How to Improve a Rivian R1S’s Elevation Sound System With Simple EQ Changes (Equipment Measured Tests & Results)

    Excellent! Thank you for sharing. Would love to see a test and adjustments for a Meridian R1T. Anyone have that?
  13. Lost right thumb control of garage door opener after 2024.27.01 Update

    Hello. I had the same issue. All I did was go to the Home icon on the top of the Center Display and selected another door, and it worked. I then selected the door I needed, pressed the thumb control briefly, and it started working again. It continues to work as it should. I dunno!
  14. Returning Cargo Cross Bars to Rivian Space?

    Another option: I would be interested in buying them from you if you'll pay to ship them to Alabama. Just let me know.
