  1. California GetFlated - Compact bed cap

    Flated compact bed top fits Ford Maverick, Rivian R1T, check website for product fit: https://flated.com/products/compact-maverick-cap46 Used in good condition. Was on and off my R1T for a year found I did not use the space as much as I thought. Solid top. Never had to re-inflate while it was...
  2. Emergency Vehicle Access - Backup Solution

    I had to look more into this. I canā€™t find any other examples of cars made today other than Tesla and Rivian that donā€™t have an emergency key hidden in the key fob for entry. Iā€™m curious which others have gone down this route? Interesting idea so basically attempt to push back power thru the...
  3. Emergency Vehicle Access - Backup Solution

    Good point about the flashlight. I was thinking the same about the lithium option down the road.
  4. Emergency Vehicle Access - Backup Solution

    One of the main gripes I have about these electric vehicles. Any by these I mean Tesla and Rivian specifically, is there is no physical key. Access to the vehicle is entirely dependent on the 12v battery functioning properly, and as we know this seems to be the achilles heel of these vehicles...
  5. Dash rattle mitigation - dash disassemble DIY

    Yes. When I took everything apart and started working on adding foam spacers to speakers I noticed that there was still squeaking sounds coming from the grille which I identified as coming from the metal housing rubbing against the plastic backing. I separated these by GENTLY bending back the...
  6. Dash rattle mitigation - dash disassemble DIY

    Calling all noise mitigation DIY'ers. I am at my wits end with what I will call a twanging noise like one would hear after someone jumps off of a diving board in a cartoon originating from somewhere in the dash. This happens on mildly bumpy roads (not off-roading) at 20-30 mph and seems to be...
  7. Suspension rattling - help diagnosing root cause

    This is a great explanation for that rattling. Thank you. I have noticed less rattling noise when fully extended (highest setting) although this is not possible in on-road drive modes.
  8. R1T ski trip with family from San Francisco CA to Bend OR

    follow up: mobile service completed battery replacement and replaced both tailgate latch assemblies. It took him about 2 hours to complete this service with removing and re-installing my soft bed cover The tech noted there was no difference in the battery that was replaced. Itā€™s just another...
  9. R1T ski trip with family from San Francisco CA to Bend OR

    I see. No. No issues with plugs not seating all the way. Iā€™d return it if that happened.
  10. R1T ski trip with family from San Francisco CA to Bend OR

    At first glance the Rivian adapter looks like it will fit a 30A dryer receptacle but these are slightly different. The Rivian is a 50A RV type so you need to ensure you get the right adapter. The links I provided in a reply somewhere in this thread has them.
  11. R1T ski trip with family from San Francisco CA to Bend OR

    thanks. Will check that out the next time Iā€™m up there. this trip was definitely worth it but we hit the weather just right with several huge dumps before we arrived then several epic powder days. The length of trip justifies at least a week stay IMHO.

    I outlined it here: https://www.rivianforums.com/forum/threads/r1t-ski-trip-with-family-from-san-francisco-ca-to-bend-or.38459/post-696285
  13. R1T ski trip with family from San Francisco CA to Bend OR

    This is all uncharted territory. We wonā€™t see reliability for another 3-5 years. Hazards of bleeding edge technology.
  14. R1T ski trip with family from San Francisco CA to Bend OR

    This response sounds a little ā€œfanboyā€ but I agree that regardless of vehicle itā€™s about planning for contingencies. Whether that be going with a partner or having the right stuff to handle the likely and less likely events that may occur depending on how far out youā€™re going. The issue for me...
  15. R1T ski trip with family from San Francisco CA to Bend OR

    The stops are nicely spaced to get some rest from drive fatigue so that part is actually helpful as it forces you to rest/stretch. Im sure it would be fine. The blizzak tires are just insanely grippy on snow/ice. The 97 is just a white knuckle drive if nearly any winter weather rolls in but...
  16. R1T ski trip with family from San Francisco CA to Bend OR

    Will reply back once all of this is done. So far 0$ on invoices and all is under warranty. I did see what they expect to charge for a battery replacement and frankly. Nope. I will replace with a LiFePO4E with a charge controller when the warranty is up as these can be remotely monitored and are...
  17. R1T ski trip with family from San Francisco CA to Bend OR

    Totally on the same page here. Iā€™m seeking a hidden exterior spot to keep a small 12v jumper to use on rear leads for just this reason. Same issue with not getting the truck going from rear leads. Was only able to get doors open. So I wound up jumping directly to the 12v under the hood on the...
