  1. They’re everywhere!

    I saw more Rivian’s than Camry’s on my way to pickup groceries.
  2. Rivian R1T Convertible (RHD!) Spotted in Kenya!

    Looks like a golf cart and a R1T had some wine and put on a little smooth jazz.
  3. Another boring "took delivery today" post ;)

    Hey now… nothing wrong with being a newb. ??
  4. How on earth… R1S rear camera has a sprayer???

    Don’t have a R1S but I’m assuming from all the washer fluid pouring down the back that it comes on with the rear wiper sprayer. You might need to keep spraying to pump the fluid all the way through for the first time.
  5. How on earth… R1S rear camera has a sprayer???

    I bet your garage smelled amazing after that demonstration!
  6. R1S Delays - Back-Up Light Not Bright Enough

    Love the patience and understanding you folks are showing here. Even with the major inconveniences, y’all are staying positive and rolling with it. It’s good to see!
  7. New R1S delivered today but may return it after 46 miles due to steering wheel shimmy/wobble

    I totally agree that at this price point a vehicle should be delivered ready for a cross-country road trip. However, unfortunately some of the non-revolutionary stuff slips through the cracks. It sucks but every manufacturer has it happen. Makes it a hard thing to catch if the vehicle doesn’t...
  8. So my R1T was keyed on Monday night... and I got it on Gear Guard

    Unfortunately they probably won’t do anything about it. I had 4k dashcam footage of a guy running a stop sign in front of me. I pulled out behind him and the camera caught him fly through another stop sign around a corner barely missing a jogger. I followed him to a red light where he had to...
  9. Driving in Blizzard with Fog Lights

    I did the exact same thing in our ā€˜05 4Runner and it worked great. There are certain situations when using fog lights only is the best way to drive safely. Doubt it’s as simple to do in these smart trucks, but I’m going to try it. I also covered the R1T fog lights with some yellow tint and...
  10. Truck is now bricked due to 12v battery issue [updated title]

    Would it be possible for the 12V system to go dead while the truck is plugged into the wall charger? We leave our truck plugged in all the time when it’s at home.
  11. Truck is now bricked due to 12v battery issue [updated title]

    Says a T20 and a T25 bit to remove the panel. https://assets.rivian.com/2md5qhoeajym/530xs9hu11xOKefT2JrvA5/4991d6f933cd4d9b48ab9300f13da2cc/r1t-og-en-us-20230227.pdf Page 243 shows the procedure.
  12. My Rivian completely dead from ~40% vampire drain after a month long vacation

    Rivian just needs to fine tune their software. There are probably too many things running behind the scenes that most likely don’t need to be. The amount of time your battery will hold its charge in a vehicle is based off of the battery type, the quality, size, and age of course. But it’s also...
  13. My Rivian completely dead from ~40% vampire drain after a month long vacation

    NOCO makes a really good portable jump box, the GB70. It’s a smart jumper, but has a manual override which lets you charge a completely flat battery. I keep one in each vehicle just incase and even jumped a dead F-350 7.3 with one a few weeks ago.
  14. PPF question - spend $7k to put a clear PPF on $80k vehicle?

    Both camps provide excellent reasons to either get it or don’t get it. All comes down to your personal aesthetic preferences and budget. If paint chips and scratches drive you insane, get it. It’s a beautiful truck, but we didn’t buy the truck for its looks. We’re planning on driving this truck...
  15. R1T pulling semi (38,000 lbs) stuck in snow

    Can we get a range test towing a semi behind the truck like that? Any volunteers?
  16. Sub-Zero Headwind Road Trip... How much of a Riviot can I be?

    I think you’d be an idiot sandwich not to do it! Haha, but seriously just echoing everyone else here and I say go for it. Looks like you’re getting some good positive advice from the group. Although it’s easy to say that from my nice warm couch… ?
  17. Vampire drain - what's the latest battery % loss people are getting?

    I think the problem most people have is comparing the vampire drain on the Rivians to other more established EVs on the market with little to no vampire drain. Rivian is a new company making new high tech products and I feel like they should have done more homework and researched how other...
