Don't own one, but I played around with the one installed on the California Dune edition truck at the local show room. It is soooo much smoother and quieter...my first question was "when can I buy it for my truck." It's an unofficial answer, but the guy working the showroom said that they will...
I think avoiding this sort of expectation is exactly why they didn't charge you for it up front. Tesla HAD TO deliver these upgrades (at great cost) because when I purchased my Model 3 (in Jan 2018) there was an explicit line-item for "full self driving" for which I paid thousands of dollars...
Sorry to revive an old thread, but wondering if @RedCanyon could provide a closer photo specifically of the mounting points/clamps of that tent? Best I can tell, it's got to be the only difference from a regular SkyRise.
There must have just been a bad run on the 12v batteries at some point. I'm at 54k miles and also original 12v. Literally everything else has been replaced, but the 12v is going strong! ?
Regarding the "cooled seats", they aren't . R1 vehicles (gen 1 at least) are ventilated only, not cooled. The temperature you're experiencing is purely a result of the ambient temperature in the vehicle. Perhaps they're moving less air than they used to because the seats themselves are simply...
FWIW, Wheel shake due to any tires is NOT normal. If you have it, I would take it to your local tire shop, or Rivian, and insist that they balance them at a higher speed. My truck with 20" A/T had some shake above 75 mph when I first got it, and I made them rebalance the tires twice before they...
My truck certainly never routes to Tesla chargers appropriately. I've even set the Tesla charger as my destination and the truck will try to make me stop and charge at another charger that is only blocks away. I don't have enough RAN charging along my route for that too be a factor, and I...
How is/was it anything more than that? I have the Yakima Skyrise 3..and I've been parked next to someone with the Rivian branded tent. I've not noticed any difference in construction. What am I missing?
TL;DR - After considering gen 2, I JUST purchased a new gen 1.
I really considered it, but find myself in the same boat regarding the pricing. The only thing I've always really wanted to change about mine is that I love Ocean Coast interior, and I have Black Mountain. Add to this the fact that...
These are tiny numbers that I'd say you are reading too much into. Believe me, I wish there was more US allocation of 2023 and 24 models. I've been trying like hell to get my hands on a 2024 Quad pickup here in the US, and every time a batch of them land in the store (3-5 typically land weekly...
All depends on your use case, but I'm going with "yes" :). I'm trying to replace my 2022 Adventure with a 2023 or 2024 Adventure. I want to "upgrade" (aka - still have a fully warrantied R1T), but I don't want to surrender the quad motor! Happy shopping!
I'm about to switch from factory 20" A/Ts to factory 21s, but now I'm wondering if I should just buy those Michelin Defenders and try them on the stock wheel!
The suspension on these trucks is noisy for sure. It's hard to say if yours is the same without actually hearing it in person, but mine has been noisy since the day I got it (w/ 10 miles on it). I think the weight of the vehicle and the overly complex suspension design work together to cause it...
+100 for the 1UP racks. I've been through a variety the last 5 years or so, and the day I got this thing I got rid of all my other racks. Also, FWIW I've been running this on my R1T for the last 2 years (and thousands of miles of road tripping with the bikes), it doesn't require a hitch...
Whew.. sadly I'm an outlier. I voted for the highest option, but here are my total stats.
For the record, I love this truck and I'd buy it again, but I won't own it for a single day beyond the bumper-to-bumper warranty. This probably deserves it's own write-up, but here we go.
20 months of...
I'm just beyond my third renewal with State farm. I'd have to go back and look at billing statements to see if there's been any increase at all, but I'm still at $1280/year either way.
