Hey all. New 2025 R1T. I've noticed that on 'Auto' mode, the HVAC system just keeps heating past the set point. For instance, I set it to 69F but the car gets really hot. When I check the app, it tells me the cabin is at 73F. The system is on auto, fan is on medium, recirculate is on, back seat...

TriMax? You mean I should trade in that Dual Motor less than 24 hrs after getting it? ;)

Ah! Yes! Don’t like to show off a dirty ride, though some would say it’s the natural state of an adventure vehicle. Here it is at delivery and then after, sporting winter wheels and tires, as well as a good dose of Montreal slush.

Thanks! Any specific brand of dry lube recommended by Rivian?

Hey all. After years of waiting and hesitating, I dove in and took delivery of an El Cap R1T Max Pack. The car is replacing my Model S daily driver and a RAM 2500 tow vehicle (for a 25' Airstream). What made me finally purchase is the growing desire to streamline my fleet size (insurance...

So, thanks all. Took delivery of my R1T yesterday. Went straight to a specialized EV shop here in Montreal. Had them put on 20” EV Sportline R1000 wheels in black with Nokian R5 SUVs mounted on them (the factory recoed tire). I’m super pleased with my choice and happy to not have gone with...

Thanks for this. I wasn‘t really thinking circumference/diameter since I’m running the recommended 20” Nokian R5s on 20” wheels. I suspect that matches Rivian specs, no? I was just wondering if, like in a Tesla, you need to tell it what you’re running, even if just going from All Season to...

Yep. I know. It does speak French, and Canadian French for that matter. However, the Rivian launch announcement for Quebec specifically stipulated Alexa was ‘available in English only’ and ‘not available in Quebec’. So I know it’s their official position, just wondering if there’s a workaround...

That‘s what I just did. Got R1000 20” wheels from EV Sportline and put the Nokian R5s on them. Replaces my 22s. So, this would be like an OEM set up.

Hey all. New (very happy) owner here. Anybody found a way to make Alexa work in Quebec? Tried setting language to English (both Canadian and US) to no avail. Looks like it’s blocked From Quebec-delivered cars somehow and in fairness, Rivian did say in the original announcement it wouldn’t work...

I just bought an R1T. Lease was not an option.

Thanks all. I’ve finally decided to go to 20s for the winter and keep the stock 22 tire and wheel package for the summer. I’ve chosen the EV Sportline R1000 wheel and will mate them with Nokians Hakkas R5 SUV. Read some threads with happy owners on those wheels. Plus I like the look. This should...

Thanks all for the replies. Think I'll go with the Nokian R5s then. A question that is creeping up as I research. Should I get new wheels too and down to 20s for the winter? I was hoping to keep the original Sport wheels for winter and then get new summer wheels but should I do the reverse? How...

Thanks! Are your Blizzaks 115 or 116 load rating if I may ask? This seems to be a great debate.

Hey all. Picking up an R1T Thursday. Have to put on winter tires. Place I called recommended Nokian or Michelin but leaned towards Michelin a bit more, their X-Ice Snow tire. What do folks here recommend? What are your experiences with winter tires for your Rivian. Thanks.

Thanks all. Delivery Guide confirmed they need the payment 24 hrs ahead of time. So went ahead and paid through Stripe. Thursday can't come soon enough!

Hey all. After years of waiting/hesitating, I've pulled the trigger on a 2025 Max Pack DM R1T! This'll eliminate two vehicles for me, a daily driver and a towing vehicle. Taking delivery this Thursday. Quite excited! This will be the first vehicle that I buy where I have the option to not...

Maybe he’s the best at tear downs and the related analysis but not sure interviewing CEOs or discussing business strategy is his strong suit. They are evidently trying to branch out in social but I’m not sure that’s his brand. Perhaps they should stick to their claim to fame.

I admittedly don’t watch a lot of Munro stuff so I don’t have a good base to compare this video with but he didn’t come across as knowledgeable on simple things like operating the vehicle he claims to already own. And then beyond the plastic or lizard comments, do you really want to associate...
