Hey Rivian owners, are you...
Two SC visits and the sound still persists. I've dropped over 4400 on new front lower control arms and a rear damper. This post isn't geared at my frustration but rather has anyone else had this issue / sound and got it resolved? See videos.
Gen 1 2022 LE R1S with 79k miles
Long story short, 2nd service center visit in a month for creaking suspension. First visit I paid out 2600 for new control arms, this time they want to replace a leaking rear damper for 2k. Aside from me trying to get Rivian to cut me a break for their parts not lasting past 78k miles, has...
7 Rivian owners and their families from Buckeye State Rivian Club made our way up to Silver Lake Sand Dunes in Michigan this past weekend. We had an amazing time. We camped at Hideaway Campground which had 50amp service (no adapters needed!) sites next to the showers. We got 11-14 miles per hour...
The Buckeye State Rivian Club (https://buckeyestate.rivianclubs.org) is headed up to Silver Lake Sand Dunes July 19-21. It's not too late to make plans to attend if you are interested. We have a block of camping sites blocked off as well at http://hideawaycampground.com/ (mention you are with...

I just wanted to take a moment to acknowledge Lucas over at Rivian for being an exceptional tour guide of the factory. @swhme and I took a tour with him and he had SO much info to share with us. He went from Customer Service > Guide > Delivery Experience Host at Normal. The absolute passion this...

Came across a pretty stubborn driver yesterday morning and Rivian DriveCam caught it all. Pretty much a game of chicken. Luckily, towards the end, I got the help of some neighbors to budge this person along.

So the past suppose to be 12 hour road trip (budgeted roughly 2 hours for charging in there) from Cincinnati to NYC today ended up being a 19 hour trip.
The biggest thing I wish I had known before I left was how to do the reset on the Rivian. I heard all about it on these forums but never...
Guide Contact October 14. Est Delivery was oct - dec with OC. Got revised timeline of April -June 2023. Guide said it would help if I changed to Black mountain. Did that 2 weeks ago and today got purchase process email!
For context - LE Launch Green R1S with 20's and guide put me in for a...
Curious if any other Oct - Dec window folks with R1S got this email around midnight EST time to confirm your config? I now have a guide too. Exactly October 1st, at 12AM I get an email. Almost want to wake the wife up to tell her ha.
Came across this spotlight rental in my email just now. 520 - 650 a day, that's one way to pay for it.

So I have been nickle and diming my options during this whole wait until Jul / Sept. In Ohio we have a relatively new 200 full EV registration fee. I got wind of it before I had to renew my volt and that year and I did a 5 year renewal to skip the fee for the hybrid which is like 150 fee each...
So I was thinking - did we all just gain back the new car depreciation? We get ours basically for 15-20k (probably more considering what's not included now on new orders) less then all new orders which means we have a great padding for resell later on. If that's the case, I'm loving this mistake...
Talked to someone today that was at the crash test facility when Rivian was getting tested and I was told they are not passing the side impact crash test on the passenger door side. This is not meant to spread rumors but it was a competitor getting their crash tests done as well.
I know nothing...
