  1. Coastal Cloud Interior Not Available with R2 Launch Edition

    Hopefully they just mean delayed availability like it was on the R1 Launch Editions. I settled for Black Mountain in my R1S to get faster delivery and would be fine waiting longer for my R2, but not at the expense of the LE bonuses.
  2. R2 buyers - will you wait for gen 3 hardware (including LiDAR)?

    Fair assessment, I had forgotten Rivian's current Autonomy+ plans are for highway driving only, not door-to-door. In any event, I am skeptical LIDAR will start shipping as soon as next year, and even then it may take several years to have a real impact on available features. The best approach...
  3. R2 buyers - will you wait for gen 3 hardware (including LiDAR)?

    After experiencing Tesla's full self driving over the past month, I've changed my vote. I'm impressed with what it is able to do without LIDAR, and don't feel the need to wait for Rivian's G3 hardware. The G2 hardware should already be a step above what Tesla offers, and there's always going...
  4. Does R2 Configurator = Time To Order???

    If you submit a configuration to be built, your deposit may become non-refundable. However, just because you are invited to configure doesn't require you to do so. You can wait indefinitely for the configuration you wish to order to become available. At some point you may be given the...
  5. How long do you plan to keep your current Rivian?

    I've been expecting to replace my LE R1S around the 4 year mark when the original warranty expires, but so far I haven't had any major issues with it that have required shop time, so I could see keeping it longer if that stays the case. The price of the R1S has gone up so much since LE I can't...
  6. New RIVIAN GREEN Signature Color Revealed! 🌲

    Nowhere do they say they are bringing Rivian Green back as a vehicle paint color. They imply they could use it for vehicle fabrics, but fundamentally this is just a marketing exercise in standardizing the color code used for Rivian Green.
  7. Radio Tuning To Random Stations

    The FM radio has long been one of my biggest annoyances with my R1S. Typically after being on for 30-60 seconds, the radio will shut itself off and then either turn back on after a few seconds or I can manually turn it back on. In the last week, this behavior has changed and now instead of...
  8. Do you Hand Wash or Auto Car Wash?

    Auto wash only once every month or two. It's a daily driver, not a show car.
  9. R2 buyers - will you wait for gen 3 hardware (including LiDAR)?

    I don't see any reason to cancel a reservation now. Rivian let R1 reservation holders wait years until their desired configurations were available, so why wouldn't they for R2? If they get to the point where they force a decision before the gen 3 hardware is available, maybe I'd cancel then...
  10. 2025.22 Update - Official Release Notes (Now With Google Maps Navigation)

    I installed the update last night and while the maps are an improvement over what we had before, it made one of my biggest gripes with the UI worse. I've always hated how the Maps app zooms all the way in on the center display. I prefer to keep my map zoomed out as I use it for traffic data...
  11. Lifetime XM Subscription doesn't transfer to Rivian

    I remember getting my first Sirius receiver as an aftermarket installation in 2002, and by the time I traded in that vehicle in 2005 they were offering it from the factory.
  12. Looks like 2025.14.0 Update is out to beta testers (2025.14.1 now)

    "Your driver profile now saves your navigation and display settings for a more custom driving experience." Hopefully this means it will finally remember my preferred zoom level. I hate how it always zooms all the way in when I go to the navigation screen when I want to see a broad traffic...
  13. Rivian buy back: what should my next vehicle be?

    I'm surprised there's only been one mention of Cadillac Vistiq, and that was an edit. It seems like a viable alternative to R1S, with similar size and on-road performance. The design is not as polarizing as the Lyriq. The biggest negative is no front storage.
  14. First Major Rivian Commercial Van Fleet Customers Announced: Hello Fresh & Factor Meals

    There's no real need since the boxes still need ice packs to handle being unrefrigerated for up to 12 hours after delivery.
  15. Not Quite Normal Rivian Club

    I tried the Day/Night for a while but did not like how it would use the owl sound in my garage even during the day, so I switched back to full-time bird.
  16. 2024.51.01 Update Installed

    Has anyone had an issue with 2024.51.01 forgetting your Home location and not allowing you to reset it? I noticed yesterday my R1S was unlocking itself at home, and when I went into the lock settings it no longer had my home location set. No matter how many times I tapped on it, I could never...
  17. Volvo EX90 could be worthy competitor to R1S

    I just received an email today that January 31 is the deadline for configuring an EX90 online along with a $1000 incentive. After that, your only option is to contact the dealer to cancel for a refund. I guess I should start that process soon given the trouble others have reported.
  18. R2 Tour Schedule & Locations (November 2024 - March 2025)

    Aside from Venice, these dates all correspond to major auto shows.
  19. Feature "loss" between R1S and R2?

    The power close frunk was the biggest feature missing from the R2 prototype that I'd like to see included on the production model.
