  1. Why can't we lower the vehicle when in park?

    That's hilarious. I did actually LOL when I read this. Then I asked her. She gave me all kinds of info about what kneel mode is, but not why it was grayed out. In any case, resolved. I toggled the 'Auto' ride height off and back on again: And just like that, the quick kneel button started...
  2. Why can't we lower the vehicle when in park?

    Yes, like 50 times, LOL. It's not a "clickable thing" when grayed out. See video: I know the other one people are mentioning. Like, if the vehicle is on a slope and you hit the "drop tailgate" button, it gives you a warning about "You're on a slope, objects may roll out". But this is...
  3. Why can't we lower the vehicle when in park?

    Yes, and that's what I do. And I know this is totally psychological, the vehicle isn't going to start "rolling on its own" or whatever, just because I put it into Drive. But when I'm in my garage with the door closed and the cats out and I'm loading stuff into the bed, I'd prefer not to have...
  4. Why can't we lower the vehicle when in park?

    No sir. Pressing the brake pedal had no effect. Didn't "wake it up". The "lower" button stays grayed out until I put it in drive (or reverse). See 45 second video: Weird. #shrug 🤷 Edit: Sorry I said "gas pedal" not "accelerator pedal" in the vid. Am sure one of y'all is going to call...
  5. Why can't we lower the vehicle when in park?

    Y'all make me walk outside to the garage in the rain to prove I'm not losing my mind, haha. 😆 Tailgate up, vehicle in Park, "lower" option is grayed out: Tailgate up, vehicle in Drive, "lower" option is accessible: Without walking outside again, can you put the vehicle in Sport mode...
  6. Why can't we lower the vehicle when in park?

    I'm pretty tall. The only times I ever lower my vehicle are when I'm loading something heavy into the bed, or occasionally climbing in for something, myself. So why doesn't the "manual lowering" work when the vehicle is in park? Seems pretty dumb if I'm loading something in to have to get...
  7. R2 Jack Point Design - Potential Issues / Challenges

    This is the old "engineers aren't mechanics" saying all over again. They had the option to design this and other components to be completely cross-compatible with the R1. Another disappointing choice. 😢
  8. R2 Manual Releases on All Interior Doors, But…

    I'm glad my Gen 1 has normal handles (at least from the inside), and that by the time I'm actually in the market for a new vehicle, the Chinese and other people smarter than us will have banned this kind of thing. This looks like some 💩 @Rivian 😡
  9. Rivian spinoff Mind Robotics valued at $3.4 billion in new funding round

    Back OT, what's the long game here? I'm assuming they're planning on selling robots to other manufacturing companies? $3.4B seems an awful lot for a company that only has robots operating at one Rivian factory. #shrug 🤷
  10. R2 Configurator is Live! 🎉 What's your configuration?

    Fun to play around with. Came in at $63k configured with a ton of options. Still cheaper than I paid for my R1T. But can't spend that kind of money either way right now. 😭
  11. Rivian Assistant - Wish list

    Same thing when I connected my garage door opener to my Google smart speakers. It said it couldn't open the door for safety reasons. Imagine someone yelling in through an open window to open the door... 🤷😆
  12. Story: Introducing Rivian Assistant & Rivian Unified Intelligence. Unlock hands-free utility with Connect+

    I asked it to put my truck in reverse, couldn't do that. 😉 Also: Update nuked my flash drive used for Gear Guard, had to remove it and wipe it with DiskPart on my computer (normal format errored out). Not a biggie, doesn't seem to be a widespread issue. 🤷
  13. Rivian Assistant - Wish list

    One of the first things I asked is if it had different voices. It responded something along the lines of "not yet, but hopefully in the future". I know this is like a "version 1.0" product but I mean, even my robot vacuum has different voices. 😉
  14. Need confirmation of 3rd party internet connectivity

    That was implied. Am familiar with the service. My point was more that this is a somewhat absurd request, not a question about "what services are available in the middle of nowhere". But thanks. 🙄🙄
  15. Need confirmation of 3rd party internet connectivity

    Came here to say this. Where's someone supposed to drive that is so remote that their truck does not get a cellular signal, but they still have WiFi that works to connect to the truck? Are we talking a house in the middle of nowhere, or something? Geeze. ☹️
  16. Story: Introducing Rivian Assistant & Rivian Unified Intelligence. Unlock hands-free utility with Connect+

    Does it understand "Hey Rivian, open the frunk?" Or do you still need to call it a trunk, like with Alexa? 😆 Editing to add: got update, tested. It does appear to recognize "frunk". 😊
  17. BestEvMod’s Monthly Giveaway for Rivian Owners!

    So I haven't mentioned this lately, but the upper tailgate PPF. I added this to my R1T exactly one day after taking delivery. While I wish Rivian had given us a normal "handle" or some obvious place to close the tailgate from, at least adding PPF gives some bit of protection to the spot where I...
  18. What’s Coming in 2026.15 Update, Including Rivian Assistant

    It used to display the logo for all stations. Now it displays none. "Something" changed around two years ago. Tbh, they could just get rid of the Morse code graphic and I'd be fine. No need to display that if you can't display the proper info. #shrug 🤷 Edit: looks like it's been three...
  19. What’s Coming in 2026.15 Update, Including Rivian Assistant

    This reminds me - it'd be nice if they'd fix the display for radio station logos. That stopped working... two years ago? Or even just, I mean, get rid of the weird Morse code graphic. If you can't display the logo, just show the station title or something in this space:
