  1. How long do you plan to keep your current Rivian?

    I'm hoping to keep my Gen1 R1T for as long as I can. Sold my Chevy Avalanche after owning it for 16 years. Still have my '05 Town & Country and a '91 Camry. Purchased the extended warranty last March at 55K miles. Now I have 72K miles and have had 3 extended warranty claims where they have...
  2. 100k miles on my Rivian R1T

    I purchased a 3rd party EW, XCare, last March when I was at 55K miles. I’ve filed 3 claims so far, totaling over $14K in repairs. I’m now at 72K miles.
  3. How do add a charger to my '23R1T's list

    Have you adjusted your Preferred Arrival Range so it won't prompt for a charge before getting home? On the Nav screen, select the gear icon and move the slider in Trip Preferences. You can also toggle on/off your preferred networks. Hopefully that will get you home without it trying to...
  4. Amazing customer service by RealWheelsEV

    I just installed the upgraded horn from @RealWheelsEV this past weekend too. The kids say it sounds like a train barreling through. šŸ˜† Listen to the difference!
  5. Seeking advice - 12V battery likely dying as I write this

    Other forum members have helped in situations like this. If someone is close to that airport and speaks up here, you can assign a key to them and they can move your vehicle to a charger. Best of luck to you.
  6. Do you Hand Wash or Auto Car Wash?

    Hand wash only! I own my truck and have PPF and ceramic coating. I wash it in my driveway with a foam canon and wash mitts. If I’m on the road, I find a self-service car wash and wash it myself. That’s the only way to guarantee that everything gets cleaned.
  7. Comma AI Owner Demo Drive Connect Thread

    It’s a cleaner install with a fuse tap too. All connections are in the passenger footwell instead of a wire going across to the OBD port too.
  8. Considering getting back into an R1T - seeking opinions on pre-owned '22-'24 vs. new purchase of a '25 or '26

    XCare has worked out good for me. Paid just under $8K in March. Hit 60K miles Memorial Day Weekend. Filed a claim in October. XCare covered $10.5K of the $16K bill. They didn’t cover subframe, door gaskets, or diagnostics that didn’t lead to repairs. Had my 2nd claim a week ago where they...
  9. R1S Front License Plate Holder recommendation

    Lost my Snap Plate while going through a river. Replaced it with a decal plate from licenseplatewrap.com which is state approved in California.
  10. XCare Extended Warranty on Rivian: My Full Claim Experience (And Outcome)

    Rivian will replace at no cost for anything…as long as you’re under factory warranty. Once that warranty runs out, you’re on your own.
  11. Powered Tonneau Cover Version 2 - Rivian Nailed the Details!

    There’s a glitch somewhere that I’ve made them aware of and they are chasing it down the rabbit hole. In the app, it will indicate if anything is open just a little bit (windows, doors, frunk, gear tunnel, and tailgate) but no sensor for the PTC. On my service advisor’s truck, it will indicate...
  12. Powered Tonneau Cover Version 2 - Rivian Nailed the Details!

    My working v1 PTC was replaced in January 2024. Some issues with v1.5 and it was replaced in April 2025 with another v1.5. This one was worse. They greased the rails and called it good in October. I showed them that it still wasn't working and they conceded. I just got it replaced under my...

    I'm in. San Jose, CA - R1T w/ Comma 3x - @DeanB1452
  14. Cooler that fits under PTC and in the Frunk?

    I have an Igloo 52qt that fits perfectly under the PTC. My 23qt BougeRV fridge/freezer fits in the frunk and the gear tunnel too.
  15. Very positive San Jose service drop off today

    I got that email too. So now I'm only a mile away instead of 4.5 miles away from a service center.
  16. Impatient Gen 2 owner. How do I force my R1S to download the update?

  17. BestEvMod best-sellers you might find useful šŸ‘€

    I had other 3D printed back seat phone/tablet holders but they ended up breaking when a shoulder would hit the clamps. Just ordered your mag safe mounts since they are a smaller profile. Will see how long these will last.
  18. XCare Extended Warranty on Rivian: My Full Claim Experience (And Outcome)

    Play with the calculator on their website. You can see what it would cost if you purchased right now, or an estimated cost when your mileage is closer to end of warranty. Of course it would be cheaper now because you would be using factory warranty for repairs until it runs out. Extended options...
