    Does Rivian have what it takes to survive?

    No crystal ball here, but my experience has been great after 18 months and one quick repair. In my own area I continue to see more and more Rivians. I realy can't wait to drive each day. My gen one came late in 23 and I think many of the early issues were worked out. To some extent I feel that...

    Gen2 rear headrests - moveable?

    I can't speak to Gen2, but in Gen1 the second row headrests are not user adjustable when in place. The tool listed below does allow them to be released and pulled up. I assume that gen 2 is the same ? https://www.printables.com/model/904514-rivian-headrest-release-tool

    Newbi with a few questions on Charging and NAV

    I can't add much more than you have already heard. When planning a long trip I use the onboard nav and Rivian apps as well as ABRP, Tesla website and sometimes Plugshares to cross reference locations, charging options, function and availability. The Tesla website helps me to confirm if the...

    Proactive replacement of 12v battery

    My responses in red : Okay I am probably not the right person to answer these questions but I'll give my opinion FWIW. 1. Yes no splicing - the OBD adapter connects to the SAE connector of the tender. Plug the tender in, then plug in the OBD and go (it should be on 12V and AGM). Seems...

    Proactive replacement of 12v battery

    Got home and had a bit of time to digest your post. Thank you showing the products and explaining. Please comment if I am wrong: It looks from the online pictures that the tender you use and the obd adaptor have the same plug so no splicing. Just plug to a wall outlet to charger and charger...

    Proactive replacement of 12v battery

    I know that shore power will charge the HV battery which in turn charges the 12V, but you seem to imply that shore power is direclty caharging the 12 V. Is that correct? Thanks

    Heated Headlight Lenses Patent filed by Rivian

    Would be great if the bugs could be worked out and if it does exist one day I hope it can be fitted to early vehicles.

    Ideal Gen1 Preowned

    I was a late 23 build/delivery. I had one half shaft service issue that was minor and some software bugs--which continue to improve. The car has otherwise been flawless. To me, end 23 may have been the sweet spot where earlier issues were already adressed. While the a/c is noisy at startup...

    New RAN stations in Placerville, CA and Cisco, TX are now operational

    https://rivian.com/experience/charging Kind of disappointed that this trip planner does not include a Gen 1 Quad option in the vehicle drop down. Did rivian forget about us?

    Rivian reputation, what do non-Rivian drivers think about Rivians?

    Pre order, 12k on my trade in, 7.5k tax credit, peanuts for charging (compared to gas), almost no maintainence (I hope). I may not be rich, but I sure don't feel dumb. (as long as Rivian survives.....).

    Rivian reputation, what do non-Rivian drivers think about Rivians?

    I have never had anyone say or imply anything negative. In fact it is my impression that this vehicle tips people onto leaving ICE because of its size and styling.
