No. If you have never driven on dedicated snow tires you can't really tell the performance difference between any all wheel drive car and the Rivian. With dedicated snow tires you get a different tread design and more importantly the composition of the tread material is very different. On any...

Your best option is a second set of tires that you can change out winter and summer. A dedicated snow tire will always give you the best performance in winter snow. If you are heading to the mountains for a day of skiing you are more safe with dedicated snows. I have a set of Doge pickup...

If dual motor has conserve mode, use that. I find that stopping when I'm at 30 percent or more and charging to 80-90 percent gives me just enough time to stretch my legs, get something to eat, exercise the dog, use the bathroom, catch up on email and texts, and select a new music playlist for...

All my cars have done this if the manual parking brake is applied and the car sits over night or for a few days after driving in rain, snow, and salt. The Rivian always applies the parking brake when in Park (look at the center display and you will see the round circle with the big H in the...

I have a set of Wild Peak tires mounted on Dodge Ram wheels. Great for an off-road adventure but not the best tires for daily road driving. These tires only have about 600 miles on them. I discovered they are not great snow tires so bought a set of Michelin X-ice tires and mounted them to...

I had something similar about a month ago. Not exactly the same but I got several problem warnings all at once that would resolve when I reset the car. The reset worked about 2 times then a brake warning light popped up and stayed on. I was able to get an immediate service center appointment...

I just got home from a 5 day trip to Moab, Utah. Drove from Park City and back and used Tesla and Electrify America charging stations. The Tesla charger in Wellington, Utah cost 52 cents/kWh, the Electrify America in Green River, Utah was 54 cents/kWh, and the Electrify America charger in...

Some of that price might be attributed to the service center not wanting to do the work, but if you are willing to pay the price they will. The problem is that most body repair facilities will want to re-paint the entire panel. Not many places will paint the dent area and then buff it out...

A huge improvement in my experience on this forum!!! I never knew you could ignore a person posting here. I have lots of "ignoring" to do which is going to make reading more enjoyable.

I have a RaKAttach swing arm that allows the bike rack to swing out and away from the tailgate of the Rivian but it is not easy to move the whole set up from one vehicle to another. I have never installed the 1UP without the RakAttach but just looking at it I don't think it would work.

I have a 1-UP that I move between my Rivian and Sprinter Van. I carry 1 to 3 bikes depending on where I'm going and who I am traveling with. My biggest problem is when traveling long distances I cover my very expensive bikes with a rain/dirt cover resulting in the taillights and license...

Don't recycle. There are 4 panels and I'm guessing not all 4 broke. Someday someone will crack a plastic piece on the side of a panel and would be able to use a replacement panel. You could sell for cheap or give away a section to help someone out.

I have found that all functions are slow so I have developed a "Rivian speed and expectation" touch screen mentality. When I touch something to make a change, I don't expect the vehicle to immediately respond so I wait and something will happen. My theory is that when you expect an immediate...

does anyone know a source for an AGM 12V replacement battery, other than the service center?

Driving in snow and on Ice is all about the tires. Dedicated snow tires on a 2 wheel drive Jetta will out perform any 4 wheel drive with poor tires any day. I drove a Jetta in the mountains of Utah for 10 years in snow and ice conditions all winter. The Blizzak tires went on in November and...

I got my confirmation email Sept. 10. Waited almost 2 months but no shipping notification. This Monday I called Rivian customer support and ask what was going on. The girl I talked to said there was a problem on their end and she would call me back. She never did. Tuesday about noon time I...

One other place to look for a rattle source. All summer I had an intermittent rattle on rough roads and when going over bumps at slow speeds, below 25 MPH. Mobile service came out twice and foam taped the dash grill and then removed the lower dash panel under the steering wheel on the driver...

$100K Car........but bitching about $14 per month........ ? ? Skip the candy coffee once a week and you have more than paid for a subscription, and you will be healthier for it.

that's what I thought too

I emailed C&D technologies today and asked about a replacement 12 V AGM battery. They emailed back that they no longer supply batteries to Rivian and have none to sell. My guess is their product was not great and Rivian now gets the 12V from some other company. If anyone gets a replacement...
