  1. Higher range estimate in all purpose vs conserve

    They would make sense, but even when the trip is a net elevation gain with little downhill it’s doing this. It didn’t do this a month ago. Seems odd.
  2. 2 Year Anniversary review with my Rivian R1S

    I’ve had mine 2 years this month also - LE R1S 34xx VIN. Only been to SC once for camera replacement and that was in the first month of ownership. My 20” AT tires suddenly wore unevenly after being fine for the first 15k miles and are now toast with 22k, somehow my alignment got off...
  3. Higher range estimate in all purpose vs conserve

    Oops, I typed it wrong and just fixed it. It actually shows better range in all purpose than in conserve when I put it in the NAV and look at the arrival estimate for range.
  4. Higher range estimate in all purpose vs conserve

    On my last 2 weekend ski trips my estimate on arrival was higher in AP than it was in conserve. Has anyone else seen this?
  5. Ideal Gen1 Preowned

    I have a 23 R1S with Meridian sound, 12v under dash and also in frunk and both horns too.
  6. Regenerative Braking Too Strong: Dealbreaker for Me?

    Within a day you will love it. Using 2 pedals seems so complicated to me now.
  7. update "2024.35.0" broke HVAC

    Yes I had it on Lo and it was blowing hot air…
  8. Bait and switch - frustrated with inability to use music apps without Connect+

    I think they have been clear from the beginning that they were never going to let you have free LTE data forever. Does any automaker do this? Obviously they are paying AT&T for it and just passing that cost on to us.
  9. Proactive replacement of 12v battery

    Many people are beyond 20k miles and a year of ownership with no 12v issues. Others have the issue within the first few months. I doubt replacing proactively will make much difference, seems like something is drawing down the battery in certain instances.
  10. No more cubbies under armrest in 3rd row. Replaced by cupholders in 2025 R1S Gen2

    That’s a bummer my 10 year old stored his iPad and Nintendo accessories in there it’s pretty handy and reduces clutter.
  11. Ford Ditches Electric SUV: Is it Time to Address the Elephant in the Room?

    There are 3 reasons people don’t buy EVs. 1. Charging network sucks. We need a charger for every gas pump and it’s a long way off. 2. No enough options at reasonable prices. 3. Politics. In 3 years #1 and #2 will become moot and Rivian will be very well positioned. The fact that others are...
  12. So many legacy auto manufacturers walking back plans to electrify. Good or bad for Rivian?

    Yea but in the future as the grid gets cleaner EVs will be the future. The eFuels would require massive solar energy that could just power the grid instead. And the eFuels still have tailpipe pollution and will always require distribution to gas station.
  13. So many legacy auto manufacturers walking back plans to electrify. Good or bad for Rivian?

    It’s not that simple though. There aren’t enough renewable sources and there won’t be for a while. Plus you never eliminate the carbon footprint of producing and transporting these fuels to stations. The beauty of electric is we already have a grid to transport “fuel” with no carbon emissions...
  14. Rivian going out of business? Should I buy or lease? [LOCKED DUE TO POLITICS]

    You’re talking to people who took delivery in 2022, compared to then this is a very low risk purchase. Worst case IMO is a buyout and given how many ICE makers are behind on EVs there would be no shortage of interested suitors.
  15. 2024.19.04 Software update brings noticeable improvements to ride quality!

    It’s better overall but I wish I could get the old soft back for the really bad urban pavement.
  16. Most efficient 20" tire?

    All you really need to do is get 2 identical Rivians with different tires and go do an efficiency test together on the same exact route at the same time. I’m not sure why Out of Spec hasn’t done it already.
  17. My Gen 2 R1S delivered review & recommendation! - for those on fence about Gen 1 vs Gen 2

    Huh, I'm guessing we will get the camera change and much of the ride improvements from the OTA. Mine is already pretty quiet and AC works great so i'll stay put! Interested to see how these LFP batteries handle the cold.
  18. Do you consider Rivian a Luxury Car?

    And air suspension, multiple drive modes, OTA improvements monthly, 0-60 in 3.1 secs, and a better ride feel.
  19. R1S body repair?

    Nobody’s gonna be staring at the roof on that one!
  20. Over 68,000 R2 reservations in less than 24 hours so far

    I wonder how many were also cancelled R1 orders though.
