    Washington Sold: New in box: pair of cargo crossbars for sale - $575 (Seattle)

    I had two of these boxes sitting in my garage thinking that each box contained one crossbar. When I finally opened them to install I realized there was a pair per box, and Rivian sent me two pairs for some reason. Local pickup only in North Seattle.

    Seatbelt-secured infant car seat: issues with sleep/vampire drain?

    Wondering if anyone has an infant/child car seat installed in their R1 specifically in the middle seat using a seatbelt. From what I understand in the manual Rivian does not recommend borrowing the latch points from the L and R passenger seats and only recommends using the seatbelt to secure a...

    Help: paint spill on exterior, how do I remove?

    After a recent trip to Lowe's I noticed some sort of paint spill on my R1S - my rear wheel got the brunt of it but there was some splatter on the liftgate and rear window too. I tried to wipe it down and scrape it off using a plastic scraper but neither of those things worked. I'm worried that...

    Help troubleshooting a charging issue [R1S, Level 2 Grizzl-E at home]

    I've had my R1S and L2 Smart Grizzl-E home charger setup for just under two months now and the combination had been working flawlessly until the past few days. Upon plugging in the vehicle charges normally, but at some point (I'm guessing overnight) the charge port light on the Rivian switches...

    Well friends, it's finally here! My R1S was delivered Friday 9/30, less than three weeks after guide assignment. Things moved very quickly this past week, with the vehicle having arrived at the SC on Tuesday. The same day I got another text from the SC saying that it could be ready for delivery...

    WA state / Seattle area owners: 11.8% sales tax look right?

    Hi friends, I am so excited I'm in the 8-step process for my R1S. I'm going through my order summary page and seeing that the total taxes applied amount to about 11.87% of my vehicle subtotal. Does this sound right? I thought it would be closer to 10%. Also found a discrepancy in the row where...

    Lowest interest rates in September?

    For those of you taking delivery this month (or potentially next), what are the lowest interest rates you are finding? I'm expecting my R1S anytime in the next 2 - 4 weeks, and would like to lock down a rate this month because next month will most definitely be worse. The best I could find was...

    Aug/Sept R1S: confirmation email + guide assigned!!

    Just got my confirmation email, and saw that I had a guide assigned as well!! I haven't confirmed yet because I want to talk to my guide first to ask about delivery window. I am also having some last minute hesitation about my exterior color choice of Forest Green - wanted to see if changing...

    Inflation Reduction Act: home EV charger credit is back?

    Hi friends, in the whirlwind of the IRA being signed into law and getting our binding agreements signed with Rivian, I failed to notice that apparently the federal 30% EVSE tax credit is also being revived. How it's being reported on is confusing though. For example, this article states: But...

    A different kind of color poll!

    I'm sure we've all tried to rank our favorite colors, but I'm wondering - which color do you want absolutely nothing to do with? If Rivian were assigning your vehicle's color at random and gave you the opportunity to veto one of the colors from the lineup, which one would it be? (Note: if you...

    It's so exciting to see that folks are starting to get contacted by guides! In an effort to streamline the information, I was wondering if this forum offers the ability to create a tracker table which doesn't live in a thread, where forum members can add the following info: pre-order date...
