2024 Rivian R1T Adventure (Gen 1) Perforamcen Dual Motor (655 hp) with Large Battery Pack.(135/131kWh). Currently about 4,350 miles but the truck is still being used so that can increase modestly. It has been very well cared for and is in excellent condition.
MSRP $88,900, not including approx...
Yesterday, out of the blue, a warning message popped up on the driver's side display of my R1T that said something like: "SOS Call Button malfunction, service immediately." I was in my driveway at the time, and had just put the truck in reverse to back out. I tried to grab my phone to take a...
Edit: Revised description
Selling the new, unused Scorpion AT Plus that came as the spare on my R1T. The tire has never been out of the truck bed storage compartment, so of course has zero miles and is for all intents and purposes a brand-new tire. Asking $390.
Please note that tire is shown...
Let me note up front that my R1T is my first EV, so I'm a novice at EV trip planning. Thankfully, the trip I'm doing the advance planning for is not until late winter, so there's plenty of time for me to get up to speed. That said, I've spent more than few hours already and am getting...
I seem to have slightly greater vampire drain after installing the latest update and have seen a couple of posts from others who are seeing the same thing. I wounder if this is real or simply apparent, and if the latter, how widespread it may be.
I did not really track VD pre-update, but it...
I finally got around to getting a flash drive for the Gear Guard. Based on the recommendations of several forum members, I bought a Samsung 256 Mb drive with 400 MB/s transfer speed. While the Rivian recognized the drive and formatted it, the drive fails to pass the speed test, so can't connect...
New or used (in good shape) OK. In Philadelphia suburbs (or Jim Thorpe area) but can travel moderate distance to pick up. Alternatively, willing to pay reasonable shipping costs.
Looking to get a matte finish screen protector to help with glare and fingerprints. There are multiple options, so I thought I'd ask the community for their thoughts about PET vs glass. Would also be interested in hearing about installation, and the relative ease, or lack thereof, of the various...
Even though I'm retired, I'm lucky enough to still be a reasonably proficient skier and for quite some time now, have driven west from PA to the Wasatch, typically with a stop of a few days in CO on the drive out. Until this year, that trip was in an ICE vehcile but now that I have I an R1T, am...
My R1T delivery is scheduled for this coming Tuesday. Late Friday, the delivery center texted me and said that even though the vehicle is configured with a power tonneau cover, it will not be on the truck as delivered. That's not really much of a shocker, but surely Rivian was aware of the...
One important step I need to take before my R1T is delivered is setting up charging at my house. It seems to makes sense to go with an EVSE rather than a simple 14-50 receptacle, and I think I'll be fine with 40 amps.
There are any number of choices in EVSE's and quite a few of the lower-priced...
I'm a few weeks out from delivery of my R1T with 20" dark wheels. I do very little off-roading and would rather have All Season rather than AT tires, to potentially gain some range and lower the road noise. My original thought was to swap the Scorpions as soon as possible after delivery for...
It appears that Rivian is now allowing early reservation holders with discounted pricing to buy or lease either the R1S or R1T, regardless of which model was initially reserved. Does anyone know if this a temporary glitch or something that will be preserved until the September deadline?

Spotted this pair in Rossland, BC, this past Friday, but I didn't have the chance to post until now. I think that they were there as part of a Rivian promotion - Red Mountain ski resort is nearby. This was the first time I had a chance to see the Forest Green in person and I have to say that the...
My R1 backstory is long and not particularly interesting, so let me say only that I'm a legacy reservation holder who changed configuration from the R1T Max (quad) to the S about a year ago, initially with the 21" wheel/tire combination. After it became apparent that it would be quite a while...
Link to what I find to be a well-written, interesting and insightful article in The Atlantic. I've excerpted some of the piece below, but recommend that you read it in its entirety - it's not very lengthy. There is a paywall, but readers get five free articles per month.

The Commonwealth of PA is already one of less EV friendly states and looks set to bolster that status when the new road-use tax becomes law. The road use tax was proposed earlier in the year and was passed in the PA Senate, has now cleared the House Transportation committee and is set to be sent...
For two days running, I have gotten an error message (below) stating that the my Rivian account was not immediately accessible and the webpage needed to be refreshed. Clicking the "Refresh page" button brings up the usual welcome page, but only for a few seconds before reverting to the error...
It appears that the area that the Brooklyn SC covers has been expanded to include Delaware. I've used the question mark and the qualifier "appears" because this is based on what I recently learned regarding delivery.
My delivery address is Wilmington, DE which, until recently at least, meant...
Links to a couple of recent articles on data collection and cybersecurity relative to essentially all new vehicles. It appears that much of this is unavoidable, but that doesn't make it less uncomfortable.
