This proves very little regarding which components are doing which specific functions, and most certainly cannot be used as a claim that Rivian is lying. That's absurd. In automation systems, it is common and usually a best practice to limit or disable functionality of the entire system if a...

Once again, talking out your ass. It's well documented and well known that many Tesla personnel were hired by Rivian. Rivian didn't talk to anyone? Rivian HIRED them, sheesh. Telsa sued Rivian over it. Radar performs more quickly with less compute, and performs better for long range and poor...

Yes. But a bigger concern is range, which is in part a function of weight, so it's unlikely we will see steel replacing aluminum in EVs because of tariff increases.

At least the patterns and shapes help to soften up the CT slabs.

The TechBro obsession is strong....

Is this star symbol significant, or just lame?

I suspect that after the warranties start expiring, you will see homebrew and aftermarket solutions to install a larger battery in the frunk. One possible complication would be that Rivian has tuned the High Voltage -> 12 Volt hardware charging algorithm to optimize for the factory 18AH battery...

I posted an image that got deleted, but didn’t do any jail time.🤙

I recall a post here months, maybe a year or two ago, where somone backed in to a pole and damaged their Rivian. They said the the pole was not visible in the backup camera... [shrugs]

And a lot of people here clamoring for the update were not around for the 2023.42 OTA debacle.

Thanks for the report. This is why I tend to wait a few weeks before doing the update. I'm more than happy to be last and let the "I WANT THE UPDATE NOW!!!" gang do the beta testing ahead of me. I do enough Alpha and Beta testing in my work life, don't need to do it for my car or phone.

I have not received the update. I'm more than happy to give up my position in line for those of you who are anxious to get this update. Where's the end of the line?

My wife’s BMW 2016 X3 has this feature, as well as my BMW 2004 330cic. Still working fine. Anecdotally, the reverse feature may be better for the life of the motor. With disuse, little motors like this can stop working due to grease skinning over, stiffening, etc. The occasional exercise could...

Chill. As in all the past updates, they typically roll out over 3-7 days and are random. You might get it one time on the first day, and the next time on the 5th day. Regardless of having a $75 100 Meg router or a $2000 10 Gig fiber and 2 Gig mesh. Rivian does not know or care what your network...

You are not even close to qualifying for Lemon Law.

If 80% of the owners are on connect+ they all get "early access", but it's not "instant access". It's still randomly throttled out.
