    Looking to trade Model Y LR for R1S

    Hi Folks, Got the Gen2 R1T in September to replace our Honda Pilot because we were always using it for truck things and once we got our Model Y 7-seater it became the daily driver for our family of 5 when everyone needed to be in the car. We love the T, but as the kids have gotten bigger...

    Range Changes Gen2 w/ decreased stability or Snow Mode left on?

    Hi Folks, Forgive me if this has been explored, but Iā€™m wondering if anyone has seen a difference in range by keeping either of these settings on? I would like to have AWD on regularly on my Dual Motor, but wondering if thereā€™s a decrease in range or any other wear issues I should be...

    Maine Wanted: AirCruiser by Cinch or Yakima/Rivian RTT

    Hi Folks, Looking for a gently used RTT for my Gen2 R1T to take 1-2 of my kids camping this coming season. If youā€™re in New England or Quebec, give me a holler!

    RTT Opinions?

    Hi Folks, My kids are just getting old enough to feel like camping with the truck would be feasible/appealing, at least for 1-2 of them with me (my partner is not a camper lol). There seem to be a ton of options, some of which fit the R1T very well, some not really, maybe all block the rear...

    Alexa Functionality

    Hi Folks, I am wondering if other folks can actually use Alexa functionality to manage infotainment? I am used to my Tesla which works pretty well with voice commands. I also have never used Alexa before getting my Rivian. However, I have it setup and have even gotten the app for my phone to...

    Best Outlet Setting for Powering House?

    Hi Folks - We had a big wind storm last night and have been without power since (tree falling into line on my driveway tooā€¦). I have solar but unfortunately havenā€™t gotten any powerwallā€™s installed yet. Thankfully, the R1T is powering the fridge (we have a wood stove so thatā€™s all we need...

    Gen2 Efficiencies?

    Hi Folks, I am wondering if anyone has done any testing of the new battery pack efficiencies with different wheel/tire setups for Gen2? I ask because I have a Dual Standard with the new 20" AS tires (which are really AT tires basically), and it's rated at 258, which is pretty close to what I...

    Where did my settings icon go?

    Hi Folks, Iā€™m clearly just missing something very simple, but recently my settings icon in the dock has been replaced by the Gear Guard icon. I now have no idea how to access all the settings. I also have noticed I can no longer drag the charge percentage to 100% from my phone app like I...

    Plug for Tow Hitch Receiver?

    Hi Folks, Towed for the first time with my Gen2 T yesterday, both my boats, went pretty smoothly. However, I don't really want to leave my hitch ball on there all winter, nor do I really want to keep it covered completely to take on/off anytime I need to tow. Is there a 3rd party "plug" that...

    20" AS Spare Option?

    Hi Folks, Have we heard anything about a spare wheel/tire for the Gen2 20" AS tires? I would love to have one - not too stressed about it with the repair kit, etc, but for peace of mind, I like having a spare. Thanks!

    Rivian - please fix the gen2 audio!

    Hi Folks, I know Iā€™m not the first (or last) person to complain about this, but I just have to say it out loud. Iā€™ve tweaked the EQ and for maybe 30-50% of songs it helps make it sound okay, at least with Apple Music. Spotify, etc sound terrible still. Iā€™m not a major audiophile, but former...

    Truck Things

    Very happy to use the LOADD Sheet today to move a storage bench my wife built over to our camp. Didnā€™t move an inch, even on the messy gravel camp road.

    Great Experience at Chelsea SC!

    Hi Folks, I just wanted to give a major shoutout to Brian and the whole team at the Chelsea SC. Had my Gen2 R1T delivered a few weeks ago. A few days later, wife went to close passenger door and it made a cracking sound. Realized the door was just barely catching on panel on front of truck...

    App: No Alerts when Frunk, Windows, etc left open?

    Hi Folks, Anyone else notice this issue? I somehow managed to leave my frunk open last night when bringing groceries in, and of course it rained. Iā€™m sure itā€™s fine, and obviously my fault, but my Tesla app gives me a clear alert when anything is left open - would be really helpful for folks...

    Gen2 Rivian Audio Settings/Quality

    Hi Folks, Iā€™ve seen quite a bit of discussion on here about audio. I was hoping it wouldnā€™t be a big deal, but, Iā€™m feeling a little bummed about it given how good my substantially less expensive model Y audio is with no modification. I have done an infotainment reset but it doesnā€™t seem to...

    Range & Tires

    Hi Folks, Apologies if this has already been discussed, but Iā€™m wondering about accuracy of range with the pretty wide array of tire options for Gen2. I have a dual standard R1T with the base 20ā€ tires. The shop indicates the range is 258 and then 270 with the range tires. But with the large...

    Door Panel Catching

    Hey Folks, Despite a stellar first 5 days with our R1T, today my wife went to close the passenger door and it made a awful cracking sound. It seems the door panel front is getting ever so slightly caught on the panel on front of truck and began to chip the paint due to the friction. I put in a...

    Kneel on Park Issues?

    Hi Folks, Just got our R1T delivered on Thursday, and already loving it here in downeast Maine. I noticed, however, possibly after this new update, the truck does not seem to kneel upon parking despite the option being selected. Anyone else notice this or have ideas? I tend to do pickup/dropoff...

    Anyone receive a Gen2 R1T yet?

    Hi Folks, Iā€™m getting mine delivered Thursday from Chelsea SC. They said no QC issues, which Iā€™m going to assume is true, theyā€™ve been great communicators. But, Iā€™m seeing a decent number of Gen2 R1S issues on here right after delivery - has anyone actually received a gen2 R1T at this point...

    Referral Reward Timeline?

    Howdy, Anyone know how soon after delivery to expect the referral rewards in account? Want to order my utility mats and bars as soon as I can before my kids destroy the mats, haha. Thanks!
