It takes 30 minutes to an hour before the system updates your newly made appointment reservation. Once that happens, you can complete the next steps. You need not make additional reservations for different times if it doesn’t show up instantly on your account after you confirm. That will just...

Yep, go through your account online and look for the Demo Drive link. Denver has a bunch of slots. Nothing at all in the PNW except a few in Seattle.

Portland OR says no R2 drives available at either location :( maybe they will get it together during business hours.

Ditto, just dropped my 2023 R1T DM large to get a new taillight and they added this FASM to my work order, along with another FASM dealing with the front suspension. The full width tailgate taillight is $1735 total parts and labor To replace. :oops::oops:

I have a silver 2023 dual motor large battery with 28200 miles in Portland. It has the black mountain interior (no wood) and 21s. I picked it up brand new at the Denver SC. Let me know if it would fit the bill.

I am a car guy since I was a small child. I saw Tesla for a fraud in the early 2000s and for 20+ years I’ve told anyone who would listen that Tesla is a company you shouldn’t do business with if you care about good cars and integrity. No one cared back then, but it’s on many people’s radar now...

I am in Denver. First, the storm last night started as freezing rain, which will challenge any wipers. This is not historically an ice-prone area and we had a legit ice storm for a few hours. Second, the Rivian does have a wiper de-icer linked to the rear defroster. Turning that on will defrost...

I got shop access while waiting for the dual motor last fall and bought from the shop when DMs started appearing for Q3 delivery. They assigned a guide but I never heard from them or spoke to them. I had not heard a lot of great things from buyers who had lots of questions. This was more my...

No, these were taken in early March of 2023. I bought my Rivian last September. It was plug and play. I also saw a Bolt there that week. A local also told me that his friend had charged a car there, though I don’t know what kind.

It was fast too. The e-tron has a charge curve that starts at 155-157 kW and stays there until 80% full, and the Rivian pump worked flawlessly with Audi’s software. I wish I could have left a thank you note. I had driven from CO through UT and NV and into Oregon, and was shocked to find the...

Yes, as I’ve said a couple of times, this was March 2023 and as we all know this has changed. Also these two were in rural Oregon locations and newer at the time.

Your Rivian is all wheel drive, all the time. You don’t have to put it in Snow mode for AWD. Snow mode is tuned for driving in very low traction situations like on actual snow and ice.

Mine does. When at or above the threshold I’ve set, my charger kicks on if I activate the heater.
