    Any Way of Listing “Wants” With Rivian

    Does all purpose at standard height with ride height set to stiff not do what you're after? Sport has a few things: - hydraulic anti-roll set to stiffest of other drive modes - torque bias moves rear a little - ~20% or so extra peak torque available if SOC allows Putting AP into stiff should...

    k3g's R1T build thread

    I'm going to wait until I can get the truck cleaned up for some good photos after installing lighting on the roof rack, but here's two teasers of what's gone onto the truck lately! First, a bracket to mount a Garmin Powerswitch under the frunk trim of the R1: Install was super easy. The...

    Hey, scanner/3D printer guys!

    Do you have a printer? I have a scanner, and could get a scan of those areas pretty easily.

    Mickey Thompson Baja Boss 20" AT Tires Installed -- Like Nebraska, honestly, it's not for everyone...

    This is very true regardless of tire choice. I took my stock 20's cross country, and followed an older XJ the whole time. We didn't go quicker than 65 the entire trip, which kept my efficiency up around 2.2-2.3 mpk. One of the days I drove without him and set the cruise at 80, immediate drop to...

    Mickey Thompson Baja Boss 20" AT Tires Installed -- Like Nebraska, honestly, it's not for everyone...

    The Baja Boss AT was my preferred tire on my taco, I'm looking to put them onto the rivian once the oem pirellis wear out on me. Very curious to see efficiency numbers, although I'm also interested in your subjective experiences once you take them off pavement, into snow, dirt, mud, etc. They...

    k3g's R1T build thread

    Rack updates, and some photos: The edge trim on the front of the rack quiets it down nicely. Soon I'll be putting some lights on it, but for now it's holding my traction boards. I've got some handles and side lights on the way for it as well, but after this last trip I'm contemplating an...

    Prospeed Racks for the R1T

    Very happy with the rack. Lights will be going onto it very soon, but for now it just has traction boards. With the truck as pictured I get right at 2mi/kwh cruising on the highway. Wind noise is well managed by the edge trim.

    Prospeed Racks for the R1T

    Wind noise update: I found a solution, and so did ProSpeedRacks. Here's mine: Here is the link if you want to buy this. I noticed a pretty huge reduction in a high frequency hiss that was likely caused by the small gap between the fairing and the roof. This removed that entirely. Don't get me...

    Prospeed Racks for the R1T

    After I mentioned the wind noise issue on instagram, prospeedrack reached out to me and we had a great conversation about the wind noise. There's a few things going on. They have some edge trim in testing that should alleviate it a lot. My roof is lower than most (yay earlier rivian build...

    k3g's R1T build thread

    Tie rod has been fixed, and now I have spares for the next time I bend one! In other news, my prospeed rack is here, and I've got it installed onto the truck. I did a full writeup of my thoughts over here in the prospeedrack thread. Here's a few pictures:

    Prospeed Racks for the R1T

    OK, got my rack on. I'll get more pictures as requested, but it looks like @HAL9000 covered most of it there. Pros: Nice billet mounts. It's a clever method to use U bolts through billet blocks, keeps the rack above your roof glass nicely. They pack the parts into separate little sections of...

    Prospeed Racks for the R1T

    My rack has shipped. It's coming from SoCal, and I'm in NorCal, so it probably won't take too long to get here. I'll take a huge pile of pictures once it's in. I'm planning to install it right away onto the truck to get a bunch of pictures and measurements, but then it'll probably come back off...

    R1T Truck Bed tent?

    I do not. If I get around to building the better one, it'll involve more CAD, and then I will.

    How to disable exterior charging lights?

    Two pieces of advice: 1. Camp courtesy mode disables proximity, sounds, and exterior lighting. Turn it on for your neighbor's sake. It'll auto turn off if you hit 8mph while driving, or you can toggle it off yourself before leaving. 2. The charging light bar can be disabled in the vehicle...

    R1T Truck Bed tent?

    That's an iKamper mini 2.0, claimed weight of 125lbs. Plus the crossbars and my bedding and it's probably near 150.

    R1T Truck Bed tent?

    I grabbed a harbor freight atv winch, and made a home depot run to make this tent installer: To put the tent on, I raise my truck to High, and back into my driveway. I spool in on the winch, which brings it up to level. From there I roll the whole gantry over my bed, and lightly let out the...

    Could this be a Rivian prototype?

    If I wanted to disguise an EV mule I'd tack a muffler on it... The side mirror has similar design language to rivian's existing model (flat underside with a raised line for the last 1/3rd of the mirror). Really hard to tell otherwise.
