I of course am 100% clear on how to clean the calipers but it might be a good idea for someone to explain for everyone else. I’ll let someone else explain if it means more than just cleaning off the outside of the calipers and the proper cleaning supplies one would use.
Your charging habits are pretty similar to mine. I picked up my R1T in March 2023 and had 39,000 miles. So I might be charging a little more frequently, but also might be road tripping a little more than you so in general our usage is probably about the same. I’ve been lucky enough to not have...
I totally get your frustration, both with it happening twice and not getting a quick fix. Do you think it is something with your truck or a combination of that other factors? I’m curious how many miles you have and how frequently you charge. Not at all insinuating that you are doing anything...
I’m not sure if I ever looked at the inside of my charger door before (2023 R1T). It has the five pictured and seven total rectangular spots that look kind of melted. The bottom one is less messy and is the twelve circles. Sorry the picture isn’t great hopefully you all can see it. Any idea what...
Thanks! That is good to hear. Have you ever tried it with the extender in the vertical position? I’m wondering how closely it lines up with the cargo bars on the roof.
Hi thanks for your comment from a couple years ago. I'm considering the longarm to help with transporting a tandem kayak, I'm thinking in its highest position it would make loading solo easier and I would be less likely to have an accident that cracks the glass roof. Do you still use it and/or...
Hi this looks awesome. I just checked their website and it looks to be sold out. Assuming they restock, I think I will buy one for transporting a kayak. Do you still recommend it? Thanks!
I hope everyone has a great time! You guys inspired me to add this stop on to a road trip my two kids and I are doing in a couple weeks. We booked campsites for 8/3-8/5. I’m looking forward to reading the write-ups. If anyone is local and wants a second visit, please let me know if you are...
I feel your pain! I had an issue where my address was wrongly located on Google maps and it was screwing with food deliveries and what not. It took a bunch of different attempts to fix it, but I was finally able to find the right place on Google support. Here is the link to my conversation just...
Someone here or on Reddit, recommended Snapbag, https://a.co/d/jjta5wk. I really like mine, it blends in well if you have the black seats. If you put it behind the passenger seat it is pretty easy to use as the driver also.
That’s very cool to hear. Were you able to drive normally in between the Safelite install and mobile visit, and approximately how long did the recalibration take?
No problem, glad it was helpful. I also tried a hitch extender, it would have worked but it felt a little bouncy and I realized that I wanted the utility of being able to swing out the loaded bike rack. The reviews for the Pivot are all over the place but mine has worked well for me.
I have the 4 bike saris rack that’s probably about 8 years old. I found that I couldn’t secure the bolt because of the recessed nature of the Rivian’s hitch. I ended up getting the Kuat Pivot. I use the Rivian bed bike pad for short journeys and the Saris for camping trips when the bed is filled...
That looks more like what I had in mind for size. Does it feel secure when mounted? Any issues with it? I’m thinking about retuning the Thule and getting that one instead. Thanks for sharing it.
Yeah, I get super stressed with the idea of stuff flying off my car and causing an accident. I would much rather pay a little extra for peace of mind. We also had a lot of wet gear on a camping trip last year because I didn’t check the forecast for the journey and tarp up. My goal for this year...
Here are some photos with the box positioned the way it will be once I have drilled holes. I also have a picture of it next to our big Thule Force XT Large for comparison. Clearly it is a lot smaller but should fit a good bit of gear if I’m strategic with what I put in. I bought it from...
