Forgive me if I missed it but was there any mention of the wireless charging pad being improved on Gen2? Has anyone looked into whether that whole unit can be swapped in to a Gen1 R1?
I had two of these boxes sitting in my garage thinking that each box contained one crossbar. When I finally opened them to install I realized there was a pair per box, and Rivian sent me two pairs for some reason.
Local pickup only in North Seattle.
Wondering if anyone has an infant/child car seat installed in their R1 specifically in the middle seat using a seatbelt. From what I understand in the manual Rivian does not recommend borrowing the latch points from the L and R passenger seats and only recommends using the seatbelt to secure a...
After a recent trip to Lowe's I noticed some sort of paint spill on my R1S - my rear wheel got the brunt of it but there was some splatter on the liftgate and rear window too. I tried to wipe it down and scrape it off using a plastic scraper but neither of those things worked. I'm worried that...
I've had my R1S and L2 Smart Grizzl-E home charger setup for just under two months now and the combination had been working flawlessly until the past few days. Upon plugging in the vehicle charges normally, but at some point (I'm guessing overnight) the charge port light on the Rivian switches...
Snazzy Labs dropped a review of the R1S and I think he is the first reviewer who actually installed the compact spare on his review unit:
Looks ... terrible :D
The review is pretty good though:

Well friends, it's finally here! My R1S was delivered Friday 9/30, less than three weeks after guide assignment. Things moved very quickly this past week, with the vehicle having arrived at the SC on Tuesday. The same day I got another text from the SC saying that it could be ready for delivery...
Hi friends, I am so excited I'm in the 8-step process for my R1S. I'm going through my order summary page and seeing that the total taxes applied amount to about 11.87% of my vehicle subtotal. Does this sound right? I thought it would be closer to 10%. Also found a discrepancy in the row where...
For those of you taking delivery this month (or potentially next), what are the lowest interest rates you are finding? I'm expecting my R1S anytime in the next 2 - 4 weeks, and would like to lock down a rate this month because next month will most definitely be worse.
The best I could find was...
Just got my confirmation email, and saw that I had a guide assigned as well!!
I haven't confirmed yet because I want to talk to my guide first to ask about delivery window. I am also having some last minute hesitation about my exterior color choice of Forest Green - wanted to see if changing...
Hi friends, in the whirlwind of the IRA being signed into law and getting our binding agreements signed with Rivian, I failed to notice that apparently the federal 30% EVSE tax credit is also being revived. How it's being reported on is confusing though. For example, this article states:
But...

We were out walking the dog this afternoon in the neighborhood and outta nowhere I saw a Launch Green R1T cruising by on residential streets! Recognized it right away (told the wifey "omg that's a Rivian! a Rivian!!"). The pup was sensing my excitement and was on high alert? . Thought I'd...
Saw this banner on Rivian's homepage. Takes you to a sign up page where you just put in your name, region, email etc: https://rivian.com/connect/tell-us-more
I'm sure we've all tried to rank our favorite colors, but I'm wondering - which color do you want absolutely nothing to do with? If Rivian were assigning your vehicle's color at random and gave you the opportunity to veto one of the colors from the lineup, which one would it be? (Note: if you...
It's so exciting to see that folks are starting to get contacted by guides! In an effort to streamline the information, I was wondering if this forum offers the ability to create a tracker table which doesn't live in a thread, where forum members can add the following info:
