  1. Gear guard saves me

    We frequent a Sam's Club and I never went up to the 2nd floor parking until now. It's in the sun but very open and you can actually park kinda close to the elevator/escalator. That's the only hassle, getting back up to the 2nd floor with the cart, half the time that cart escalator thing is...
  2. "So What Kind of Car is That?"

    I get the “yeah but who makes it” a lot too. I think people are expecting our response to be a known automaker like Ford, GM, BMW, etc. Someone even assumed my R1S was made by Tesla.
  3. Leased Tire Replacement

    I’ll be watching this thread. I also leased our R1S and expect the tires will need to be replaced once before we return it. I ended up with the 21’s without doing enough research and now find that there’s only a couple of options for replacements. My preference would be to swap with someone...
  4. Is anyone accelerating their R1 purchase/leasing plans due to the election result?

    I was thinking exactly the same thing even before Dump somehow won the election. Depending on how fast they kill the credit, this could actually help Rivian by accelerating sales next year. Again, this really would depend on how long it will take to remove the credit. If they can do it...
  5. Gen 1 R1S frunk and liftgate opens on their own

    After about a week of owning our R1S the frunk wouldn't close automatically. It'd physically close then open again before it could latch. Kinda like something was stuck in there and a sensor was making the hood open up on its own (like a pinch sensor or something). It did this for a couple of...
  6. Gen 1 R1S frunk and liftgate opens on their own

    Happened to me a couple of times. Took the widget off my iPhone and it hasn't happened since. Only widgets I leave on the phone now are the ones that show state of charge. It's a few extra clicks to get to unlock but I'm ok with that. Software bug or not, it's too dangerous to have the trunk...
  7. Nice to Mean - 21's to Black Radius rims, M&S tires and Goatfab rock sliders

    Mahalo for all that info. Wheels pretty affordable! If you combine that and the variety of available 20" tires it's almost a no brainer to swap out the stock 21's. A replacement set of tires for the 21's run pretty high and as of now there are only 2 options 😠. My only issue is I'm leasing my...
  8. Nice to Mean - 21's to Black Radius rims, M&S tires and Goatfab rock sliders

    How much for the wheels/tires? I've been debating about doing the same.
  9. Simple mod to protect lower side carpet in rear cargo area R1S

    The tailgate on the R1S is a pain to try and protect. If possible do you have pics of your tailgate showing how you cut the LinerX up? Mahalo in advance!
  10. BestEvMod-Limited Time Offer 10% Off On Our Mud Flaps Above Fender Vent Covers

    I think it's just to keep rocks from flying through and impacting the fender behind the tire. My R1S has a piece of PPF behind the fender to help with chips. Came from the factory like that which is good but was already peeling off when I took delivery 🙄. I've seen other vehicles with this...
  11. Lag with maps

    This is odd but I have the opposite issue. The nav consistently shows the truck a little farther than it is IRL. When I come to a stop light the arrow that represents the truck slowly moves back to where I'm stopped. This happens pretty much all the time.
  12. Tire Sealant - swap out how often?

    Just thought of something. Mine slime kit came in the onboard pump hose bag that's in the back underfloor storage (R1S). I've read some people store that slime kit in the frunk with the portable charger, etc. Due to how hot the frunk can get I would imagine if you store the slime kit there it...
  13. I Don’t’ Miss CarPlay

    So ……. A lot of us really miss a better maps app (Waze) and texting. We don’t miss CP or AA, just those two primary apps/functions. There are also other use cases like Teams/Zoom but I haven’t seen too many mentions. Regarding Messaging/Teams/Zoom, you shouldn’t be doing that while you’re...
  14. Just picked up our Gen1 R1S Quad Large a few days ago. Have notes, will share some Hawaii specific ones here ....

    First, thanks for all the info. I actually finally got my registration sorted out today (3 trips to the DMV). The clerk did say the lease makes filling out the paperwork more of a hassle. Apparently Rivian filled everything out correctly and I finally ended up with a clerk that knew what he...
  15. Just picked up our Gen1 R1S Quad Large a few days ago. Have notes, will share some Hawaii specific ones here ....

    Finally got the registration pack from Rivian and already made 2 trips to the DMV without success. I think I have most of the stuff worked out now (mahalo to Marshall at the DC) but I just noticed your reference to the G27 form. Just want to confirm that you went to the State Tax Office to...
  16. Various 22" Wheels in DipYourCar Colors (Painted so you can see how they look) R1S

    Ok, thanks. I have a Limestone and am thinking about Hyperdipping the 21”s in piano black so looking for point of reference. Crazy how the lighting in that last photo makes it look like a totally different vehicle from the first 2.
  17. Various 22" Wheels in DipYourCar Colors (Painted so you can see how they look) R1S

    Bottom photo, what color is that R1S? Limestone? Or is it just the lighting?
  18. Accessory Lighting - All of the accessory lighting

    Unreal looking setup, nice work. What kind of fogs are those? Are they available in amber?
  19. Kneel on Park Issues?

    Haven't noticed this yet. Sounds like that could be dangerous?
