When are we getting rear screen apps (YouTube, Netflix, etc) on Gen 1? This seems like the ultimate no brainer. There’s an excessively nice screen back there. What is the holdup?
2024 R1S Quad.
I experienced my first real UI bug this morning. I tried to use the touchscreen to turn on the dome lights, and the button did not work. Alexa was able to turn on and turn of the lights, but the UI screen would not work. Tapping the dome light did nothing to turn the lights on...
I've seen a few interviews with Rivian personnel. It seems that the changes to the suspension involve a few part changes that seem to have made a big difference.
I'm looking forward to seeing someone get a Gen 2 on a lift next to a Gen 1 so the differences can be itemized.
Before tinting the windows on my Rivian R1S I visited a few of the top referred shops in Miami. I ultimately decided on High End Detail, owner operated by Josue Recinos. High End Detail did a great job on my R1S.
I went with Llumar Pinnacle 30 on the front windows, Pinnacle 50 on all...
Has anyone observed erratic behavior in the accelerator position sensor in service mode? The values are all over the place and do not appear to update in real time for me.
I was checking this sensor to make sure the TuxMat I just installed did not interfere with the maximum position of the...
Is there anyone who has "been through them all" who can say "these are the best mats?"
I need some that I can hose the kid puke/smashed chicken nuggets/melted M&Ms/crusty smelly milk off and shake dry and throw back in the truck immediately. Anything that absorbs any water is off the list...
On Friday Tesla slashed the price of the Model Y:

Remarkably, even with this price slashing, the Model Y is still positive margin for Tesla. It looks like Tesla is trying to clear out inventory of 40,000+ Model Ys. I...
This week I am trading in my 2023 Quad R1S for a 2024 Quad R1S.
Here's the situation. I had two pre-price-hike R1S orders. I took delivery of the first order last year, and have been sitting on the second order. I was probably just going to request my deposit back. The real plan was to let it...
Is that fog in my charging light bar? Yes, it is.
My R1S is garage kept at home and work, but I did run it through a touchless (water jet) car wash a few days before this photo.
I hope it evaporates?
Please let me know if you have installed heat rejection glass roof tint on your R1S and you are thrilled with the difference it has made with heat in the car. I got my R1S in the fall, and now here in South Florida the baffling no-shade feature is brutally hot. Any info you can provide on tint...
I designed and 3D printed this bottle holder for my Rivian R1S. Now I can put bottles in my doors.
The STL model is on Printables here: https://www.printables.com/model/733716-rivian-r1s-r1t-bottle-holder-for-doors
On my R1S I wanted something more simple than the many products on the market, so I designed and 3D printed (yet another) MagSafe charging pad. Simple, charges 2 phones. 2 Apple OEM MagSafe chargers are installed from the bottom. No cutting or removing anything. This locks in and does not move...
Why did they put cloth on the lower area of the door panel of my amazing R1S. They look terrible all the time with dirt on them from, you know, shoes.
Has anyone ripped off the cloth to find presentable (better) plastic underneath, or is there some other solution?
So far, the dopey popout...
Has anyone done an analysis of the total R1S production rate to determine when they might get through the order book, so that we might have a general idea of when we might actually receive our R1Ses?
I ordered 2 LA Silver R1Ses in 2021. The original delivery estimate was Late 2024. In late 2022...
