  1. trickle charge 12 volt

    @Tim-in-CA which battery tender product do you use plugged into the wall? Curious what it's specs are. Also, do you know if this approach would work for Gen1 with dual 12V batteries?
  2. EV Tax Credit - PreOrder Voucher - R1S Dual Max Adventure

    My first attempt was filed Oct 2024 and rejected December 2024. My second attempt was filed early January 2025 and received the refund early March 2025. So I'd say about 2 months for me for either rejection or refund.
  3. Aptera expects to start production later this year. Will anyone buy it?

    Although it's great to see Aptera taking the risk in a different direction, I'm afraid this won't take off just because the market has shown time and time again that it isn't interested in radical designs en masse. Cases in point include the original Honda Insight and more recently the Cyber...
  4. R1T $7500 Tax Return with binding purchase agreement/2022 Amended Tax Return

    Sorry to hear, but you aren't alone in receiving weird/nonsensically worded letters. I went through something similar and a couple posts above you can see someone got a rejection letter stating something about "two-wheeled plug-in electric vehicles". Last I checked, Rivian ain't making scooters...
  5. R1T $7500 Tax Return with binding purchase agreement/2022 Amended Tax Return

    Adjusted 2/27 and received check 3/1! Thanks @Mygrain and all others for all the advice. As noted in this thread, like many others, mine got denied for a nonsensical reason the first time I filed (electronic). So I subsequently filed a second amended return (this time on paper, so I could attach...
  6. Building a new house - what would you ensure was part of the plan?

    Go for 5/8 inch drywall instead of 1/2 inch to make the entire home much quieter. Insulate the heck out of every space (incl. attic) to prevent energy loss. Also, I'd go for 3 L2 conduits/runs if possible, and try to get the perfect angle (30 degrees?) on the roof portion that faces South...
  7. R1T $7500 Tax Return with binding purchase agreement/2022 Amended Tax Return

    Mine shows received 1/13/25 (second attempt via paper, after the first electronic submission got denied for a reason that made no sense whatsoever, and captured in my previous posts). Hang in there, we're in this together. The law is firmly on our side.
  8. Reminiscence: Photos of Rivian R1T Prototypes in the Documentary, "Long Way Up" (2020)

    I was amazed when I first saw the series that Limestone was hiding right there in plain sight well before launch!
  9. The close button on the R1S hatch is really hard to see

    It is right under the "V" on the RIVIAN on the tailgate. It appears this was done by design so that the "V" points to the button. Of course the above won't help when you're trying to close the hatch in which a case a sticker or something similar may help.
  10. Feature request: open doors on manual pull of the handle

    The frunk/tailgate staying proximity-sensitive, even though auto-unlock is disabled at home and set to "Lock only", was the primary reason for excessive vampire drain (up to 16 miles a day) in my case. So I prefer to not enable proximity lock/unlock at all at home. I agree having the option to...
  11. Rivian just rotated my tires - but the rear wheels seem crooked now??

    Are you sure you didn't get mud in your tires? :) Seriously though, agree with others, that's normal and should settle with a little bit of driving.
  12. Why does NACS adapter not work with L2 Chargers?

    I find it amazing that the CCS port monstrosity even made it into the wild to this extent. NACS is so far advanced in terms of compactness and ease of use. Hate Tesla as much as you want, but I'll give it to them hands down for sticking to their guns on NACS and not giving in to CCS during their...
  13. Rear ended by a Jeep Wagoneer

    Hoping there were no injuries! I've always been curious how the mechanics of crumple zones work. I imagine the Wagoneer isn't a low riding vehicle, so perhaps it's hood starts around the same height as the RIVIAN label on the tailgate. If so, I wonder why the Rivian's tailgate is relatively...
  14. 2024.47 update - Charging limit not being held when set in truck sometimes

    I'm seeing this as well. It was never this bad prior to the latest app/software updates.
  15. Edmunds' 2025 Gen2 R1T Dual Motor vs. Tacoma TRD Pro Off-Road Comparison

    The comparison seemed fair and objective to me. The DM R1T certainly seemed to struggle up the hill. Although that's the base model R1T, given they aren't too far apart in pricing, I can see how they may get cross-shopped with that Taco for some folks. The DM R1T may be a better all-rounder...
  16. Driver+/Autonomy cannot be trusted in heavy traffic – just got into an accident with a slow merging truck

    My 2c after watching the video: 1. Drivers are always responsible for what their vehicle is doing at all times. I'm not sure about the law, but my horse sense tells me the truck driver isn't at fault since that driver was ahead of you and signaled that he was coming into your lane. The truck was...
  17. Driver+/Autonomy cannot be trusted in heavy traffic – just got into an accident with a slow merging truck

    I'm curious how the video unfolds as well, kindly DM me.
  18. My Rivian saved mine and my kids lives

    Glad you all made it out safe! Hope you get your new wheels soon!
  19. R1T $7500 Tax Return with binding purchase agreement/2022 Amended Tax Return

    @Mygrain thank you! I checked my amended return filed via Taxact, and the form title is "8936 Qualified Plug-in Electric Drive Motor Vehicle Credit", Rev. January 2023. That's the same form from your previous post. So it looks to me that the form Taxact used is actually the correct one. That is...
