  1. Anyone using the third-row (R1S) for dog transport

    Any photos of the steps in action? I tried them on my R1T and the angle wouldn't work. Not 100% of what size to get for the R1S. (There's both number of steps and width to consider, maybe? They have so many versions on their site...)
  2. Anyone using the third-row (R1S) for dog transport

    Posted on reddit (I know most of us read both) but bringing back here to close the loop: I dropped $400 on a crash tested dog barrier. (It's the "medium" size on this site.) In my R1T, I had used a cheap/janky amazon barrier and (a) it rattled when I drove and (b) would have provided zero...
  3. PSA: New iPhone/iOS 18.1, can no longer set up Rivian key

    Add me to the list. iPhone 16 Pro. No beta software. PAAK worked for 2 weeks. Then stopped working. Support made me do all the things. Nothing worked. Now I have a service appt in November. Sigh.
  4. There's an interior camera in Gen 2 R1 rear view mirror

    I know I'm an old but I could really care less about autonomous driving. Wish Rivian would invest elsewhere, including allowing me to view this camera from my phone so I can spy on my dog.
  5. Anyone using the third-row (R1S) for dog transport

    Yes she was a GWP. Had complications from a splenectomy... Sorry for your loss.
  6. Anyone using the third-row (R1S) for dog transport

    Our girl is pushing 70 lbs. Crate would be too much and we never bothered to crate train. The crash tested crates are also $$$.
  7. Fifth nail in tires in two years

    Your tires : nails :: my windshield : rocks
  8. Questions: Gen 1 R1T ---> Gen 2 R1S

    Just picked up on Saturday so still finding my way. Posted a thread about the dog situation here: https://www.rivianforums.com/forum/threads/anyone-using-the-third-row-r1s-for-dog-transport.33235/ If I toss the dog in the very back, all our problems are solved. But I've gotten a little more...
  9. Anyone using the third-row (R1S) for dog transport

    Yes, your approach is not dissimilar to my setup in the R1T. I used Orvis foam rear seat extenders (just one shown below) to fill out the back seat area. I had a cheap Amazon barrier to keep both dogs from exploring. (It rattled when we were moving, so it worked but wasn't ideal.) I...
  10. Anyone using the third-row (R1S) for dog transport

    FWIW, on the way to the park this afternoon, tried loading up the dog in the third row area and wasn't successful -- the passage to the third row, with the middle row seats pushed forward, is pretty narrow. My dog wasn't having any part of jumping back there. (She's a pretty big girl so I'm...
  11. Anyone using the third-row (R1S) for dog transport

    Oh, I was looking at this barrier ONLY if using the rear cargo area for dog transport. I'd keep the third row folded down, if using the barrier...
  12. Anyone using the third-row (R1S) for dog transport

    Seatbelt + harness, or free roaming?
  13. Anyone using the third-row (R1S) for dog transport

    I have been considering this product: https://www.rayallen.com/mim-safe-variobarrier/ It's under $500, which is reasonable to me. It's also crash-test rated and potentially solves a few problems: dog can't fly forward like a projectile through the front of the vehicle, dog can't jump the seat...
  14. Anyone using the third-row (R1S) for dog transport

    Beautiful dogs. Setup looks very expensive and very permanent.
  15. Anyone using the third-row (R1S) for dog transport

    Long time (2-year) R1T owner; just got an R1S yesterday. Dogs had completely taken over our back seat in the R1T -- we'd actually like to keep the second row of the R1S available to human passengers. I'm feeling guilty about using the far back cargo area of the R1S for dog transport, mostly due...
  16. Questions: Gen 1 R1T ---> Gen 2 R1S

    We also have two reservations for the R2… :)
  17. Questions: Gen 1 R1T ---> Gen 2 R1S

    Thanks. Helpful. Yes, the premium audio is the upgrade. I actually like the Meridian audio in the R1T (although many bitch about it). My hope is that it wouldn’t be that big of a drop off. Just saw some post on here suggesting that EQ tweaks can help quite a bit. Guess I’ll find out. I haven’t...
  18. Questions: Gen 1 R1T ---> Gen 2 R1S

    I read all the complaints about ride quality but it seems like they got quieter with recent OTA updates. We'll see. I'm looking forward to a tighter turn radius, as it's not easy to get into my garage via alley... :) I will look into those steelies. I've seen others who bought questionable...
  19. Questions: Gen 1 R1T ---> Gen 2 R1S

    I just pulled the trigger. Had the truck for just over two years. Only 14K miles. No major issues. Obviously a loyal Rivian owner... Just decided that R1S would be better for the dog, especially if we ever needed to haul extra humans around. Didn't really use the bed in ways that couldn't be...
