  1. A few software bugs lately

    The usual preamble / throat clearing: I'm a huge Rivian fan, I love the product, reported these bugs via customer support already, feedback is just because I want Rivian to succeed and have an amazing product, etc. With that out of the way, some bugs I've seen lately, both general ones and...
  2. The 2 things that will keep me from upgrading from OG Gen 1

    I have an OG gen 1 R1T, and I'm beginning to eye upgrades over the next 1-2 years, but two things that will absolutely keep me from it as non-starters (if you're seeing this Rivian!): #1 Audio: No way I can give up the Meridian sound system for Rivian's current HW and sound capabilities. They...
  3. Potential bug? Navigation stuck in 2D view when 3D is selected

    Since the last software update I've noticed navigation is stuck in 2D orientation when 3D is selected. Seems to happen most when the next turn is coming up within the next mile, which ironically is when 3D view is most needed to anticipate and look out for the turn. Are others noticing this...
  4. R1T owner on pickup trucks vs. SUVs

    For context, I'm not a pickup guy (have never needed one). I got the R1T because I loved the Rivian tech, driving capability, quality and brand. I'm a single guy and at the time felt that the R1S is mainly for families with kids, so I defaulted to the pickup truck. I absolutely love the Rivian...
  5. 400 mi trip across Kansas/Missouri in R1T

    400 trip across KS/MO. Starting temp of 15F ended at 39F, with typical Kansas wind. Drove 68 mph on 20’s averaged… 1.64 mi/kwh Seems… not great. Even for the cold and wind. But maybe it’s just what to expect. On the positives, after two days of driving from DC I have yet to have a single...
  6. Blind spot in rear camera reversing view

    I was backing into a parking garage spot, which has poles sticking out from the wall 2 feet into the space. They’re high enough where the rear bumper camera doesn’t show them when 5-6 feet away, but just low enough to hit the truck tailgate. This is a really silly parking space, and ultimately...
  7. Suspension squeaks. A little birdie told me...

    Mobile service came to fix a panel alignment today. While he was here, I took the technician for a drive around the block to show him the "bird chirping" squeak noise that sounded like it was coming from the suspension when driving over bumps at low speeds. He told me: This is due to the...
  8. Is PPF worth the financial cost?

    I'm a bit worried about inviting a controversial topic. So go easy on me ? Strictly from a financial cost calculation standpoint, is PPF worth the investment? Considerations: How much on average does a scratch or rock chip cost to repair the paint? What happens when PPF is damaged with a...
  9. Lower insurance for Tesla > Rivian

    Just got my quote from Geico. The 6-month premium for the R1T is $478, which seems low generally, but especially in relation to my Model 3's current 6-month premium of $868. Identical coverage, and this is to replace the Tesla, not adding a 2nd vehicle on the policy. The Rivian quote is lower...
  10. First Aid Kit vs. Field Kit?

    I'm surprised I'm asking this question, given how much time I've spent reading and watching videos about Rivian. But here goes nothing. There is a "First Aid" kit in the R1T's right door of the gear tunnel. It seems like it comes standard? I can't find anything on Rivian's website about this...
