    Too complex to use while driving, or parking.

    If you need exact specifics or your literal coordinates at any given time are accessible on the main page of your phone app. There should also be mile markers where you’re at. I lived in the middle of no where for 20yrs where everything was dirt roads and adjacent towns had 500 to 1500 people...

    RJ suggests Rivian leasing coming soon, unlocking $7,500 EV tax credit

    Super dumb to flease to begin with. Zero use case. Zero rationale. Just for poor people to keep them poor which is sad. The fact congress couldn’t make this work in at a minimum a financing scenario for people and are going to put people in fleasing and debt situations and likely with no option...

    Update 2023.34.0 -- Improved Handling & Ride Comfort, Phone Call Steering Wheel Functions, Set Speed for ACC / HWA, 25% Better Sleep Range Loss

    I will say when I did my Rivian first drive event and test drove the R1S probably 8 months ago now I was extremely concerned. Felt like a boat going over waves. My R1S delivered 3 weeks ago has been perfect. Very smooth, no weird jitters and and overall pleasant experience. I can’t say why this...

    Rivian cost cutting suggestion: Lose the camp speaker

    Came here to say I use my camp speaker all the time. While I don’t enjoy some of its connectivity issues, the sound quality in mine is superb with rather significant clarity. Obviously I didn’t buy a dedicated audio music speaker here - but for what it is, I find it to be more than suitable and...

    What wheels to buy for the winter? Leaning towards K02 for tire

    I called the Rivian Service Center tonight and was told the 20” AT wheels would be about $3100. A bit more expensive than I anticipated. They also gave me a hot tip I’m gonna try tomorrow morning with their wheels.. I will report back if it’s true or not.

    What wheels to buy for the winter? Leaning towards K02 for tire

    The only winter tire that’s available are Blizzak 20s. So it’s not like the options are plentiful. Everything is either on back order or don’t meet OEM spec.

    What wheels to buy for the winter? Leaning towards K02 for tire

    Its 100lbs difference. Seems pretty inconsequential, particularly knowing that I’d imagine all load indexes are made with a level of leeway and forgiveness meaning that going above the maximum weight rating accidentally is going to be unlikely to cause a blowout unless you over did it...

    What wheels to buy for the winter? Leaning towards K02 for tire

    The one guy above linked a 22” winter tire from tire rack with a 115 load rating. Looks like a nice option.

    What wheels to buy for the winter? Leaning towards K02 for tire

    While I agree in principle.. winter for us here is at least 5 months of the year. I don’t want my R1S to look fugly for half a year.

    2 weeks and 999 miles later in the Rivian R1S

    No problem. Here are the misaligned panels that bother me the most. The others I don’t see with my eye so clearly or are not significant enough for me to be upset about it. First is the tailgate that sticks out on the passenger side. I’m unsure if this is what sometimes my tailgate won’t open...

    What wheels to buy for the winter? Leaning towards K02 for tire

    Do you have any pics or vids? What state winter did you run through? MN is very different than say OR/CO/NY in the sense that we actually have pretty limited snow accumulation but it’s always freezing meaning the road conditions are generally for more severe than fresh power snow states where...

    The passenger side has no dents, so I have a feeling your part is indeed damaged.

    What wheels to buy for the winter? Leaning towards K02 for tire

    I’d prefer the 22s with winter tires vs the 20s with winter tires as I’d anticipate less range loss but I feel the 20s would be the safer choice. Looking at those tires however has me thinking to buy the dark 22s and pick up those.(if they’ll sell me just the wheels anyway). I may have to...

    What wheels to buy for the winter? Leaning towards K02 for tire

    I will call them again. I called last week and they said no. Do you recall the price point?

    What wheels to buy for the winter? Leaning towards K02 for tire

    I just found these. Not exact. Unsure what the overall thought is having a lower sidewall. https://www.discounttire.com/buy-tires/michelin-x-ice-snow-suv/p/89241

    What wheels to buy for the winter? Leaning towards K02 for tire

    I live in Minnesota and thinking about winter with my 21s and the reviews here that say they’re scary to drive on. I’m overall just looking to spend less than the OE $4300+. I’m a fan of the K02s as I have had those for a decade on 3 different Raptors. Always do well in the winter. That said I’m...

    2 weeks and 999 miles later in the Rivian R1S

    I have now been able to haul the family of 5 around for 2 weeks in the R1S. We have put on 999 miles to date and completed our first ever family tent camping. I posted a quick-comment post that can be found right here but this new post is to serve as additional follow up for hopefully others to...

    Is the Model X now a better buy over R1S? (WARNING: NO ELON MUSK DISCUSSIONS)

    At the price point and for just a family hauler it’s not a choice - the X is pretty clearly the winner. That said, my family enjoys the Rivian R1S way more. My dad has been borrowing my X for a bit here now and so my other beater car is my Model S. I wouldn’t say I’m a Tesla fanboy, but I’ve...

    Taking delivery within a week. What do I need to know about the tax credit situation?

    No - your warranty is absolutely not invalid at all by replacing the stock wheels/tires with aftermarket. That said, if your vehicle was using wheel and tire combinations not recommended by the manufacturer and through the service center and tech diagnostic review an issue arose that was due to...

    Taking delivery within a week. What do I need to know about the tax credit situation?

    My understanding is yes. You should buy the wheels you want separate and sell the other set 2nd hand.
