    Moby Dick - The Silverado EV RST FE Reviewed By Rivian Owner

    The charging speed issue is related to the Superchargers not supporting 800V, that cuts the charging speed in half for the GM trucks. My Hummer battery, same size as Silverado has done 30-80% on an GM Energy charger in 26 minutes. It peaks at 350kw and is still charging at 180kw at 80%.

    I Sold My R1T / My R1T Ownership Debrief

    I have a Hummer, in addition to my R1T, and agree with your points about towing and service. The thing you did not mention is the charging curves. The GM trucks have a far better charging curve than the Rivians, and I do not see that improving.

    Garage Door error again!

    The latest update is the first one in a while that did not break my garage door controls, and I have 5 garage doors. Seems like every update in the past year has broken mine.

    Question for Arizona Rivian Owners

    I have a Gen 1 and at Tesla stations in the summer it will start at 200+ kw for about 2 minutes, then drop to 110kw. The adapter gets too hot. It does better at CCS stations including RAN, EA and EVGO.

    Question for Arizona Rivian Owners

    Service times are long, even for something as simple as a new windshield. My tonneau just failed in Nov, one of the early ones, no parts or appointment until late Feb.

    Tips & tricks for using the Rivian app for trip planning?

    It is dumb because the trip preference's and display filters do not match. Terrible usability, and that is why the OP was confused. There should be only one setting and it should be obvious to all users.

    Tips & tricks for using the Rivian app for trip planning?

    The filter only affects what is displayed, it still tries to navigate to those. It has been this way forever, and Rivian should fix that. I alwasy check the charger apps to see if any are out of order, as well as PlugShare. The EVGO app is usually very accurate in identifying out of service...

    User Interface Laggy?

    I definitely see this. I do not see lag once it sees a "push", but it often misses button pushes completely. I wish they offered an audio feedback for touches, I have this in one of my other cars.

    Idle fees due to Rivian charger failure.

    I had something similar happen, but it was when the RANs were free. I plugged in at Inyokern and we went to get burgers, but the charger failed. The issues is that the app gave me no warning. This was over a year ago, and I am not sure they have fixed the app. With charging apps like EA, EVGO...

    21” Pirellis suck!

    I also live in AZ and my 21s lasted 25k miles, without that kind of damage. I appears they are separating, my trailer tires do that when sitting in direct sunlight.

    Best practices for driving in extreme cold

    I used those ChargePoint chargers in Durango several times in September and they work fine. They are power shared and can be busy at times. Even though they are rated at 200kw, the best I got was 180kw with my Hummer (800V).

    After 32K miles, my tonneau finally went sideways and jammed up. No word from Rivian on a date to fix it. Edit: Got a mid Feb appointment at Phoenix SC.
