  1. The Drive: Why Gen 1 quad devour tires

    I’m running OEM Pirellis on my ā€˜23 Gen1 quad with 22 inch Sport wheels. Currently on original tires after 23k miles. Had them rotated by Rivian at 20k with no issues. Hardly eating tires
  2. Should I upgrade my Gen1??

    I run a Gen1 Quad R1S. Owned from new and I’ve put 21k on it. I’m not really interested in self drive but, whilst I’ve still got good value in the car and before I add too many more miles I was wondering if it’s worth trading to a Gen2 Dual. I like the idea of 400+ miles and the updated tech...
  3. 2025.06 Update Release Notes

    But my fear is if you early adopt for R2 then how long before R2 Gen2 and again, those of us that helped the company going at the outset by having faith get somewhat shafted by the lack of upgrades available? I love my Gen 1 R1S but I feel we are being slowly forgotten
  4. Flickering rear light bar

    I today discovered the rear light bar on my R1S is intermittently flickering. Not a problem as I’ve got a mobile service appointment for March 12. My question regards the fact that I need to drive from NJ into PA at the weekend. Anyone know if cops will take a dim view and pull me over for...
  5. Laggy/glitchy Apple Music

    Apologies if this has been discussed before. Gen 1 R1S owner who predominantly used Apple Music. I’ve recently noticed that whenever I scroll or touch the screen the music momentarily stops and the screen is really laggy and difficult to scroll through. Anyone else have this? I’m going to do a...
  6. 2024.39.0 just rolled out to UAT

    I agree and use this feature regularly. My only gripe is when I hear my phone has received a text, if I say ā€˜Siri, play unread text’ she won’t as She says my phone is locked. So what? My model 3 has no issue with a locked iPhone
  7. Charging question

    Ok, forgive my ignorance. I do 99.9% of charging at home. Currently on a road trip in VT. At a RAN charger with 300kWh capacity. If I’m getting 541 miles/hr charge, in a quad motor on 22s (so a max range of 291 in All Purpose) how will it take 1hr 30 to charge to 100%? That suggests 700 odd...
  8. Can someone explain…..

    I went from 45 to 80. The speed dropped to 55kW but I needed to get home so as my daughter packed the car I used my home level 2 to get up to 96%
  9. Can someone explain…..

    I’m lucky enough to charge at home but today I needed to fast charge to 100% as we were taking our daughter to college and I forgot to plug it in last night (doh). There are a bunch of EVgo DC fast chargers close to me so I thought I’d give them a go. I had to swallow the 69c/kWh as I needed a...
  10. NJ Service Centers...

    I had an appointment in Brooklyn a month or so ago. A week before I got a call asking if I wanted to go to the new vehicle distribution center in Mahwah. They could do limited service items there. Big place with lots of new R1S/Ts awaiting their new owners. I need a follow up but it’s back to...
  11. R2 Reservations are open and it's FAST!

    Reserved. Took some time and kept getting ā€˜try again later’ messages but now got the email to confirm
  12. R2 Price, Specs, Dimensions leaked!! $47500, 0-60 3 sec, 330 miles range

    For me, I love my R1S and I really admire RJ, how he comes across and the company. I really want Rivian to grow and saying this will be sold outside of the US/Canada hopefully means it will. I’ll be making a reservation on Thursday. Luckily our Model 3 lease ends September 2026…
  13. Am I missing something…? 100% charge only giving me 291 miles range

    Charged my quad motor large pack R1S to 100% for the first time. Have a long drive today. I was assuming I’d be showing 314 miles. But 100% is only giving me 291. Charge at home in the garage and internal garage temp was 54f.
  14. What is this? Top of the curved gauge is hashed out (Solved: Power available is reduced symbol)

    Thanks for the comments. I drive like a nun so not having max output is no biggie for me
  15. What is this? Top of the curved gauge is hashed out (Solved: Power available is reduced symbol)

    I’m sure this has been asked and answered before but I’ve not seen a thread. Anyone know why the top of the curved gauge is hashed out? Something to do with the -f temps we have in NJ at the moment? Thanks
  16. Grumpy Rivian drivers no wave

    I concur with the UK practice. I’m from the UK and if you don’t raise a hand in thanks/acknowledgment - that’s the rarity. And no offense to my fellow New Jersians, but your driving generally sucks. There are these things called mirrors. Maybe use them once in a while. Sorry, soap box has been...
  17. Grumpy Rivian drivers no wave

    What’s up with fellow Rivian owners in my part of NJ?! There is a growing number of us on the road and, like when driving our Wrangler, I wave or (in the absence of an ā€˜official’ Rivian greet) flash my lights. The response? Nothing, zilch, nada. They don’t even look as they go past. Obviously...
