  1. unexpected "opportunity" to be all-EV family

    We recently got an R1S as an refresh for my 19 yr old vehicle. Quite the upgrade. Our other car is only ~14 years old, so we thought we had a few more years. A few shudders and some strange accelerations this week, and we're facing a major engine repair that will be expensive and take ~2...
  2. trouble installing cross bars

    I got one (R1S)! Itā€™s the best. Now Iā€™m trying to install cross bars. Thatā€™s not the best. I get the cross-bars lined up. Instructions say there should be a double-click on each side to seat the cross bar in place. First click, no problem. Second click . . . lots of problems. The instructions...
  3. garage floor mats for R1S?

    Hi All - I don't have my R1S, but like many others, am checking out peripherals as a (poor, unsatisfying) proxy as I wait for the real thing. I live in CO. We get snow. Vehicles accumulate snow, which then melts in a garage. This has happened to me for a long time, and I've sighed and...
  4. who cares about privacy?

    Who cares about privacy? First, to the extent that one can be a fan of a vehicle that one has never seen in person, I am a fan of the Rivian vehicles. The R1S is, in many ways, the vehicle I have been waiting to own for a long time. However, Rivianā€™s approach to privacy is alarming at best...
  5. privacy policy

    Thereā€™s been lots of exciting news from Rivian recently, with direct updates from Rivian, and glowing 3rd party reviews. The truck sounds extraordinary! Another update to their website is their privacy policy: https://rivian.com/legal/privacy-policy I do not find their privacy policy...
  6. Does anyone actually like the wood in the Black Mountain interior?

    Some of us are going with the Black Mountain interior, either for practical reasons (after one camping trip with our kids, our seats will be black anyway), or aesthetic reasons (generally looks sharp). However, based on discussion in various threads, it seems that no one likes the shade of the...
  7. privacy. and security.

    The topic of privacy has come up in other threads, I'd like to start a thread specifically to: 1. discuss what privacy policies exist for current EVs. Many of us on this forum have not yet owned an EV, and some of us haven't even bought a new car in over 10 years! What information does, for...
  8. 503 Service Unavailable

    I recently added a home VPN, and now when I try to access Rivian's website I get: 503 Service Unavailable No server is available to handle this request. Does anyone else using a vpn get this error? I hope this is not a sign of things to come in regards to their tracking / data-collection...
  9. What We Do Not Know - Important Information Still Needed to Make an Informed Decision

    I thought I would start a complementary thread to the excellent ā€œWhat We Know - Collecting Information Directly From Rivianā€ maintained by Hexijen. In particular, I thought it would be helpful to track questions for which we donā€™t have answers. To manage the scope of ā€œwhat we donā€™t knowā€, some...
