I am probably going to go with Michelin LTX 20" AS to replace my stock Pirelli 20" AT. I'll get better efficiency and a quieter ride. I am just not going offroad enough to use the ATs. The question I have: can I stay with the Pirelli as my spare tire, or do I need to switch all 5? I've got...

My R1T has ocean coast and is a dog hauler. The interior is still in great shape

I'm at 32,000 miles, and Rivian service hasn't seen my R1T yet. I'm modestly worried that I may be needing something done, but not so worried that I need to go through the trouble of making a service appointment.

The Discount Tire I go to (Durham, NC) had a long, step-by-step printout that details every single thing that they need to do to rotate the tires on my R1T. They showed it to me when I inquired the first time I showed up. It is pretty simple when you have the information, and I am amazed that...

At one point a couple of years ago, Baillie Gifford owned more than 200 million shares of Tesla. They started selling down that position in late 2020 and now own a little more than 17 million shares. They run about $200 billion these days. Having them in Rivian's corner is significant. ETA...

I use Discount Tire for tire rotations, haven't done it myself for a long time since that free service was available. I rotate 4 at a time, and don't see much difference in the cost between that and a 5 tire rotation. Yes, you can get more mileage from all 5 tires if you rotate all of them...

I have thought about this, yes. I don't think it is a **major* concern, though. Plenty of automakers have gone bankrupt over the years. The key is to get to a large enough installed base that the assets would have value to a purchaser. And I believe that the installed base of Rivians is...

Absolutely would buy again, without question. I have used it for all the reasons you cite, going fly fishing, skiing, and kayaking. In response to your issues: --I had range anxiety prior to my purchase. I have been really surprised at how little I worry now. From North Carolina, I drive...

To each their own. When I ordered initially, I got the manual cover instead of the powered, because that always seemed to be the sort of thing that would break. And for many, it sounds like the powered cover does break more often than not. I don't mind spending the couple of minutes to take...

I've got an early ocean coast R1T, now up to 24K with no issues (although my home charger just died).

That's definitely valid. I've had a couple of trips that weren't over interstate highways, and a couple of times I had to drive on a longer route that would cross by an interstate so that I could get to a fast charger.

The wide range of experiences that people experience on road trips is fascinating to me. I have never had an issue over the year and a half of road trips with my R1T. I've never had a broken charger keep my from using a particular location. On rare occasions there have been one or two...

No, that isn't correct. For almost all retail trades, buys and sells, the other side of the trade is not an investor, but rather a high speed trader like Citadel. That high speed trader turns around and immediately sells those shares, and it is quite possible that the buyer is **also** not an...

Just to clarify, I did not get a speeding ticket. My question was rhetorical, not literal. I thought it was more amusing than anything else.

So if my Rivian tells me that the speed limit is 85, can I get out of a ticket? The actual speed limit on this road is 55, FWIW. The speed limit on the dash was 85 for several miles, then went to 70 and 65 a few times. The actual speed limit never changed from 55.

Thanks for this info. I've had this issue for several months with my R1T driver's side window, and Rivian did not give me this suggestion. They only had me reset the windows as stated in the Owner's Manual. The note to push it down Halfway was never suggested. They've only said that I could...

R1T OEM 20s, 20K+ miles, rotated twice at 8K and 16K. From the looks of things, I am guessing that I'll get over 30K for this set of tires. I haven't measured, but tread is definitely >5/32. My driving is probably average aggressiveness, I've done launch mode maybe a half dozen times, but...

It sounds like I might need to reset the pressure for each tire. I think I did it the first time and thought that the setting would remain the same. Just guessing. Thanks.

Strange problem happened yesterday. I was using the R1T air compressor to fill up the tires on my other car as the cold weather had made the pressure on all four tires too low. I set the compressor to 36 psi and then filled up all 4 tires. For 2 tires, the pressure was properly filled up to...

It's frustrating, no doubt. I'm in North Carolina, and frequently take trips to the coast, about 160 miles. After a bit of experimentation, I've figured out that as long as I have 200+ miles of range, I can make it there, driving about 80 mph the whole way. In colder weather and/or rain, I'll...
