There is this video on YouTube of some software updates that Rivian should have had by now. Many of them are pretty reasonable, some will be hard to do, some may not be possible at all. But I like the screen layout suggestions, like trip computer, weather, altitude, and media. These should be...
Just tried this Hansshow phone charging pad for Rivian and it's very innovative and works well. Worthy upgrade from the Rivian OEM pad. It has extra charging ports and ambient lighting. The best part is that it looks pretty good and complements the interior. I liked it more than I thought I...
I know there has been requests for a Christmas theme but none for the third year now. I believe Rivian doesn’t want to offend but there is always an option to turn it off. If anything I would feel more offended by Halloween than Christmas but I love the gimmick of it all. Christmas would have so...
Apparently a Rivian is the best vehicle for overlanding. There are definitely some drawbacks but overall it checks many boxes if you’re into that sorta thing. If you agree with their sentiments please subscribe to the channel. Asking for a friend. ?
I’ve spent thousands of miles doing road trips in my R1S and R1T, and after charging at various types of chargers and locations, and facing all sorts of challenges…it would totally frustrate me if the charge port was in the rear. I usually have a packed car and bikes on the back thus backing up...
Has anyone tried to remove the spare tire with the crossbars on truck bed? I tried for a little bit and was not able to. Am I missing a step? If you have a roof top tent mounted and you need the spare when off-roading are you just outta luck?!
I’ve driven two R1S’ and the birdseye view is so distorted. Service center looked at it twice and hasn’t been able to rectify it. One rep is trying to says it’s “normal”. I’ve had 360 cams before and none ever looked like this. I’ve had the R1T and it never looked like that either. Anyone with...
Rivian One Year Review
Launch Green, 20” ATs
14 months 20k miles.
This has been my experience after having the truck for a little over year. I’m coming from several Audi Sport cars and most of the midsize trucks around. It’s less luxurious and less trucky than I’m use to so that’s the...
Is it just me or is Rivian top speed too low? 112-115. I realize that in the Hagerty drag race, the Rivian tops out way too soon before the quarter and stops accelerating too early, thus loosing out. It’s not a dragster I know but It would do better if it went to like 130? Software update in...
I drove this past weekend to Mammoth and back to Ontario, CA. We had 4 people under 150lbs each and the truck loaded to the brim with ski gear and camping gear. Charged in Bishop to 98% 293 miles and got back to Ontario with 3% 11 miles remaining on conserve mode. Traveled at 75mph majority of...
