    2025.14 Software Update is Released

    Mine downloaded around 7pm yesterday evening. Have not driven it yet, though. I agree with everyone above hoping that UI lag improves...

    The R1T tailgate trim is not robust enough IMO

    I agree! Mine is a year old and this part is scratched and gouged like a 10+ year old truck just from sliding garbage cans and light-duty building materials in/out. I believe I could pull it off the tailgate with two fingers if I wanted to, so I've been trying to baby it for fear of pulling...

    Current Travel Trailers / RVs you're towing - Reviews and Recommendations!

    I use an Equilizer WDH (10k lbs). It's fairly easy to set up and quick to connect/reconnect. https://www.equalizerhitch.com/products/equal-i-zer-hitch/ I swapped out the two OEM lead acid size-24 battery boxes on the tongue of my trailer with one big box to fit my larger 230ah LiTime battery...

    Current Travel Trailers / RVs you're towing - Reviews and Recommendations!

    I was on the fence between the Grand Design 2400BH and the Jayco 24BH when I purchased mine in late 2020. I ended up going with the Jayco, but the floor plans are nearly identical. Weight was similar IIRC. My post on the first page...

    Rivian Home Charger or Tesla universal?

    I bought a used ("new in box") Rivian charger and always get 11.3kw speeds. The Rivian chargers can be had for $400-$600, often never installed. The Tesla Universal chargers are cool, though. It would be nice to have the quick adapter while the industry is transitioning to NACs.

    What did you do TO / WITH your Rivian today? 🧰

    Hauled 8 bags of mulch and 2 bags of dirt to re-do a flower bed.

    RJ shows R2 in e-coat!

    This is an R3 picture from Rivian's website (shown after the unveiling) that shows a NACs cord/NACs charge port. It sounds like the charge port location has changed, but I'm sure they're keeping NACs:

    Q1 2025 Rivian Production & Delivery Figures: 14,611 Produced / 8,640 Delivered

    There's always two ways of looking at things, I guess: As usual, the market takes a "glass half empty" approach. Even though Rivian and others only predicted 8k deliveries this quarter...

    We have a 2021 Jayco Jayfeather 24BH. 6,300lbs dry, probably around 7k lbs loaded with food/drinks/stuff. Jayco 24BH Link: https://www.jayco.com/rvs/travel-trailers/2025-jay-feather/24bh/ The bunk beds are great for our two teenage kids. Big awning (21') is one of our favorite...

    New Rivian dispensers and non competitive pricing

    Of the ~8 different fast charging sites between Knoxville and Nashville (a trip I make about once a month), the RAN station is $0.13 higher per kwh than the next highest charging station. It's definately not a busy station by any means. When I've charged there in the past, I'm usually the only...

    Rivian Wall Charger J1772 cable replacement guide

    I wonder if Rivian will eventually offer a NACs cord replacement. I could see that being beneficial in the future as more and more vehicles move to the new standard. It beats an adapter on your cord everytime. I'd rather just swap the whole cord (or cord end) out if all my vehicles had NACs...

    Rivian’s New Color Palette for 2026~

    I love the bold colors... but honestly, my next truck will be white. The white vehicles I've had in the past have been so much easier to keep clean and don't seem to show light scratches/swirl marks as bad as other colors. With that said, I do like the El Cap I currently have... it's just more...

    Air compressor cover - ummm...

    Mine did the same thing. It was open every time I drove the truck. I finally bit the bullet and got one of these:

    Undocumented Changes in 2025.06

    That's good to hear. I haven't had mine on the interstate since the update, but hated how conservative the Gen1 Driver+ is on curves. I'm in east TN, so there's plenty of them around the mountains/plateaus.

    Current Rivian owners - What’s one change that would make you happier?

    Text message integration. Just read my dang texts and let me reply using my voice! This feature has been available through legacy automakers for ages... I'm not sure what the hold up is here. I mean-- I can use my phone to "start" the vehicle, automatically unlock the doors, cast Hulu to the...

    The sound of a Gen1 R1 as it reverses

    I can just barely hear mine when I'm in a parking garage. Outside of a parking garage, I can't hear mine make any sort of sound, even with the windows rolled down.

    California Dune Limited Edition R1S & R1T Unveiled!

    I like it! Especially the color-matched wheels.

    Rivian now charging $.68 per kwh

    Looks like my local(ish) RAN station in Cookeville, TN has jumped again from $0.50/kwh to $0.62/kwh... Of the 6 stalls there, the most I've seen is two other Rivians there. Most other times, I'm the only one. Meanwhile, there's several Tesla chargers that range in pricing from $0.38-$0.48 at...
