  1. Half Shaft replacement- is this normal?

    I joined the half shaft club. 2023 R1S, quad. Went in for three year brake fluid flush and inspection mentioned the noises and clunky low speed feel. Front shafts and hubs replaced. G version shafts if I read that invoice correctly.
  2. What'd you name / nickname your Rivian?

    Cheeky swipe at modern automotive color palette, from a red canyon owner.
  3. What'd you name / nickname your Rivian?

    Have an el cap loaner. Decided it needed a better name
  4. Poll: How often do you use your frunk?

    I keep some camp chairs in the Frunk used almost weekly at kids’ sports. Plus charging gear, adapters and travel charger. And a recovery rope. Some day I’ll pull someone out of a ditch.
  5. The Verge - "Kia’s flagship EV has a battery problem - The EV9 has a big battery that’s proving to be unreliable."

    That’s what happens when you put the steering wheel on the right.
  6. Starlink Mini Fire Sale ($199) -- My experience with the service

    My kids loved it last summer. Could stream their shows on xc flights.
  7. Starlink Mini Fire Sale ($199) -- My experience with the service

    I bought mine for two use cases. Connecting at places without good cell/broadband and in my small plane. They torpedoed the small plane options.
  8. Starlink Mini Fire Sale ($199) -- My experience with the service

    They recently shut off in motion use for the standby plan. Amazing tech. I’m using it now. Prepare for plans to change every few months. Ask the guy general aviation crowd how it’s worked out.
  9. Rivian Assistant is here!! (Update: not quite yet) (Update 2: it's here!!)

    Is that for this stuff or is there a new software update dropping soon?
  10. You've Owned An EV For A While Now. How Have Your Charging Habits Changed?

    Too easy not to plug in nightly. I don't have to think about it in the morning. Ditto. If I'm sitting in my warm house, and we decide to ski or go on some short fused road trip the next day, I pull out my phone and turn up to charge limit for the trip. No need to go out in my bunny slippers...
  11. Speculation - R1T cost after R2 launch…

    What did Tesla do with the Model S when the 3 hit the market? I see this as a comparable situation for Rivian.
