Hello all,
Just took delivery of my Ascend R1T and noticed I don't have the nice brass lower seat trim shown on other R1 models I've seen on the Internet.
Anyone able to comment? Normal told me I was their first Storm Blue R1T delivery.
Rivian CS is solid IMO, not perfect, but doing a good job. Congrats on the ride.... S or T?
Ride is incredible, makes the old Quad seem like slop. Camera's are excellent. Interior is better, but didn't wow me like I expected. Stereo is ... Abysmal. Seriously how to I know if I got the "premium...
@Budman
Thanks so much for your post. Happy for you and love the ?.
I'm awaiting my G² R1T³ Ascend hopefully any day now (Rivian CS Guide ?).
I too have 63k miles on my 30 month old R1Tā“, but otherwise it's been bulletproof and love every second behind the wheel (a lot of seconds behind the...
I ordered in June and received a call end of last month and supposedly will have it in 2-3 weeks.
I've reached out the past 2 weeks calling once a week and I'll let you know what more I hear come Monday.
This is a lose connection in the coolant system for the battery. It'll cycle fluid and continue to in a noisy fashion because it's leaking coolant fluid.
This happened to me.
@KubotaTed the R1T is a niche vehicle and sadly all EV trucks kind of are. So far, none check all the boxes that ICE trucks do. Size, range, towing, etc. maybe the the RAM Charger, if that ever comes to be.
EV trucks are tough, but the R1T is more or less what a full size truck was in the 80's...
I would agree, but I'm excited with the bronze stitching and accents. Kinda something to go along with the wood.
I'm just excited for the G². I 100% agree that the G² is the Rivian that Rivian wanted to make from the get go.
Gonna be a keeper in deed.
@amd
Thanks for posting! Video was excellent and to the point.
Excited! Got the call G² R1T³ ready for pickup in Normal in 2 weeks!
Storm Blue, Black Mountain, Blackout with 22 sport.
@mpshizzle Awesome write up and thank you.
Always enjoy reading stuff like this. Well done and once again, thanks!
Hopefully will have my Tri Motor in the next month.
Also as far a Dolby Atmos mixes go... It's cool because Whomadewho's new Album Kiss & Forget (just was released) when I pull...
65k miles on my R1T and I love it.
As far as "the drive" goes ... Remember the R1T was the original Rivian design.
The R1S a truncated version.
I'm of the opinion the R1T is the best handling truck in the world, the R1S being great too, but not the pinnacle driving experience within the SUV...
You make an interesting argument, same thing My R1T stickerd at 78k, however 116k estimate does sound a little extreme. But 99k, getting a vehicle that has nearly a hundred miles more range, is faster both 0-60 and in the ¼ mile, updated tech, nicer interior, and all the associated bells and...
I agree, but at the very least I'd hope the range would best a G¹ model. I'm still hopeful the G² Quad will get more than the 301 miles in the G¹ vehicle.
