-I felt the new wheel buttons are nice, but a little too big?
-Waiting on tri motor, felt faster than the dual R1, but still slow compared to quad.
-Liked how they kept most of the same materials. Carpet is a big one for me, R1 R2 carpets are easy to clean, unlike glued fibers on plastic...
drive a r1 in the south mid summer. you'll be screaming for shade. the ac does not keep up without blocking the sun out. it's so bad the SC here installed the shades on their loaners.
its not a rivian specific problem, but their design is pretty bad. they tried to make it as compact as possible, so you have multiple U bends with ZERO access to clean it! take it from someone who has over 100k miles and lives in the south with high humidity/100 deg temps. no matter what you do...
The longer I drive my early 22 r1t the more I realize Rivian DID NOT test/validate their vehicles in hot humid places. Soo many issues here related to the HVAC unit.
bug. I have it too, sometimes it shows arrival soc higher than starting. It's really buggy, the first update that was super buggy for me. gen1 here too.
I have the different graphs and displays freeze, and my battery temp stays pegged at 100deg.
I don't get why we can't have some things standard. Some legacy things should stay legacy BECAUSE THEY freaking work!. I'm most irked about the prox lock unlock, and the random soft resets while driving.
several nissan/dodge cabin filters fit the rivian. Dimensions are negligible on the size. If you buy the wix xp branded filters they both use the same manufacturer as the stock rivian filter.

So I spent the better part of an hour looking where I could get access to the evaporator coil. Rivian put the blower inbetween the dash and firewall with a turnstile freshair/recirc . I tried putting my scope in the recirc intake in the footwell without any luck. I'll order an articulating tip...
