    Rivian cuts another 1% of workforce in new layoff (April 17, 2024)

    Must be why I only get crickets from my guide, and the Chat is stuck at 17th in line every time. šŸ˜¬

    Out of Spec seemingly confirms R1 refresh in about a month

    Most logical move. Why alienate new buyers from their own network?

    Rivian continues to miss out on revenue

    I I will not be subscribing to any service/feature on any vehicle I own. Period. They need to figure out how to be profitable by producing a great product, not nickel and diming customers for options. Iā€™ll keep all the streaming services in our living room and get in my Rivian for real...

    **NEW** MPP "Triple-L" Ride Height Adjustment Kit For R1T/R1S - Lower/Lift/Level

    Cool product and design. How much additional ground clearance is afforded at its highest position?

    How do you handle texts in your R1?

    I solved this by changing the ā€œAuto Lockā€ from 30 seconds to 30 min or more. Then most likely the phone remains unlocked most of the time itā€™s in your pocket, but still locks up if left behind someplace.

    Ceramic tint the windshield?

    Even with strait clear ceramic the temperature will drop. I have two vehicles at 80% and one at 100%. I prefer the 80.

    Ceramic tint the windshield?

    Absolutely ceramic tint the entire front if youā€™re in a warmer climate. Has made a world of difference here in Hawaiā€™i.

    Rivian offering preorder price difference vouchers for remaining price protected pre-order holders

    Sounds like the voucher is for Shop Purchases. May be worth confirming your custom build now. I confirmed mine on Feb 2nd, and have not been put into production yet. With a delivery timeline of 2-4 months. Interested to see if they rush my R1T through before the shut down. I am a pre price...

    Rivian offering preorder price difference vouchers for remaining price protected pre-order holders

    Itā€™s the other way around for many reservation holders. Rivian has been holding out and delaying delivery for service center proximity. Iā€™ve been ready to purchase for years now.

    Offroaders' thoughts on R2/R3X?

    Iā€™m curious what the suspension looks like. Iā€™d love for it to be beach/sand capable!

    Kamaaina Rivian Ohana

    Shop access granted by my guide. 1-5 week delivery estimate. Very tempting, may still wait for my build though.

    Hawaii customers

    I just got an email today from my guide offering shop access. Iā€™m on Kauaā€™i. 1-5 week delivery. Iā€™m gonna hold of and wait for my build I think but there are a few configurations that are really close to mine.

    Kneel Mode stresses suspension?

    Our Grand Cherokee with air suspension and kneel/entry mode operating for the life of the vehicle with no problems. The compressor was my only concern. The air bags themselves, being rubber, will last longer as they are exercised up and down. The longer the air suspension remains static the...

    UPDATE: Blackout lightbar decal added + applied vinyl to break up the controversial front end on my Rivian

    The bold lettering cheapens the look IMO. I am a fan of the tinted light bar coupled with the white paint.

    Kamaaina Rivian Ohana

    Have you driven on the sand yet? Iā€™m curious how it takes softer sand given its weight.

    "Alexa, let's chat" a la KITT

    Indeed, Iā€™m very interested in how we sapiens adapt to no longer being the most intelligent species in the room. Phoenix just keeps putting out great performances in uncommon films. ā€œAlexa throw the movie HER on the living room TV and order me a pizza from that place I really like.ā€

    "Alexa, let's chat" a la KITT

    KITT was so amazing as kid, my inner child is getting really stoked for this. If you havenā€™t seen the film HER, there is a dark side for conversational AI friends that know us and serve us better than anyone else possibly could. Just donā€™t fall in love with Her! ā€¦Black Mirror

    The great Chicago Tesla debacle has defeated my father in-law's Rivian ideas... [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS]

    Itā€™s a mixed bag of Resort charging stations, shopping centers, and some county/power co. Still a lot of work to be done. They are all mostly for tourists and rental EVs. Gotta have a home charger + solar to truly make financial sense.
