    Tire wear condition at 15k miles, 10 months (photos)

    I'm at 10k miles and all those miles were on conserve mode and i had nowhere near that kind of wear. you can see wear on my tires, but only because the rears look brand new. if there was no rear for reference, you'd say the fronts were pretty new

    Ford announced being over 3 billion in the red in the EV sector, led by the lightning... Funny I said this would happen and was told that I was making baseless accusations and I didn't know what I was talking about when I said that the lightning was being sold at a loss when clearly it was as...

    My First and Likely Last Post

    like everyone said, can't blame you, your reasons for switching to a (Y) make sense. before you do though, i would have to say that i think you should listen to @swhme and try and rent a (Y) for a day or two, and an R1T (if you can) to compare the two. I my self pre ordered in Aug 2019 and took...

    Which front fascia/headlight alignment is correct?

    i looked at my truck, and it as well is like yours, driver side flush or slightly further in from fascia and passenger side is just proud of the fascia.

    Which front fascia/headlight alignment is correct?

    i may be wrong, but i do believe that the driver side is suppose to be aimed lower (to avoid blinding the driver of the on-coming traffic) and the passenger side aimed higher (this is to light up road signs).

    They hit me in my driveway resulting in $21,195.95 repair bill

    i called Rivian customer support and asked for a list of certified Rivian collision centers near me, your damage shouldnt be too bad as long as the support for the fender is intact. good luck and i hope yours doesnt take as long as mine has.

    Speed Limiting Through OTA Updates? What's Next?

    I think they should add a track mode and put back the 130mph people were getting at the normal event, my thought on this is the following: I have a buddy of mine with a TRX, he's running smaller wheels with way smaller tire than come stock on the vehicle, he's using some drag radials for his...

    I thought the same as you, and i too have seen instances of ants loving to crawl all over my truck in these areas. but he and their rivian specialist both told me the same, one told me as i was waiting for the other to come from another building he was at.
