If this is how my R1S interprets this situation I’m am super thankful there is no real auto drive! WTH. Gotta do better than this. A car in front of me, one beside him and finally a car next to me. Everyone evenly in their own lane. This should be a no brainer. Still can’t figure out why...

After I drive for 10-15 min the right rear of my R1S starts to sound like a buzz saw. It actually gets pretty loud. The noise is induced by any sort of acceleration. The faster the car goes the faster the buzz saw goes. When at highway speed it’s just a constant buzz. and coasting I can’t...

Anyone have any tips/tricks to easily clean the brake calipers? The clearance is the tightest I have seen on any vehicle I have owned. Spent like 15 min per wheel trying to thread a cloth around in there. It’s just not very accessible. I have a brush that I use on my other cars but it...

I wonder what Rivian's position is on right to repair? I bet, like all car manufacturers, they are banking on that repair/maintenance revenue stream and probably won't be eager to offer up SW and tools to Joe mechanic. I understand being electric in theory means less maintenance but when...

Anyone looked at this charger? Looks interesting. Home DC Fast Charging as well as Vehicle to Home functionality. It’s not cheap but might have a decent ROI. https://www.dcbel.energy/blackout-power/

Interesting read on the broad impact Rivian is having on a town in rural America. Definitely a feel good story but we need more "feel good" these days. It's not just about cars of course and it's not isolated to Normal. Also shows how the $70K plus we are spending benefits others...
