    Heavy Tailgate

    I find if I hook my index finger on my left hand into the latch on the left side of the door it can be lifted easily about i/2 way. At that point, I remove my finger as I have put the heel of my right hand just below the top edge. From here I slam the door closed with a thrust of the heel of...

    I submitted a feature request to add a clock to the driver's dash

    I have pushed for a clock on the driver's display as well. It is not so much the size of the font but the off-axis location. When you move your eyes the tendency is to migrate in that direction, the longer the look the more the movement. This is the idea behind heads up displays. At least...

    NACS Adapter reservation emails are now going out!!!!

    I should be pretty early either way. VIN 34xx delivered 3/22. This will be a game changer for over the road trips.

    RIVIAN Owner's Pittsburgh, PA

    Hi Paul, I am in the N Hills. I took mine to Krisch Auto in Ingomar for inspection. I also have a set of pucks which I turned on the lathe.

    A less painful DIY wheel swap / tire rotate

    Just as the snow is coming to PA, I ordered my tire dolly. This should make the twice a year tire swap much easier.

    【BestEvMod】Rain Guards is now available!

    Just out of curiosity, see if it has any effect on the wind noise that comes from the side windows. I have had the glass and trim replaced twice and it still could use something. Maybe this will further limit the air infiltration with a different flow. Thanks.

    Another White Rim trail trip report

    As for permits, seven of us went on the website Tuesday for slots Wednesday. They opened it up at 8am and we all logged in then. There were a total of 7 permits we got for our motorcycles with around 17 still up for grabs. The day of there are an additional 25 permits open but you must pick...

    Another White Rim trail trip report

    Looks like you were on White Rim three days before us. I wish I had run into you out there, it is spectacular scenery. The whole time out there on the bike, I was wondering how the R1T would do and what sort of charge I would have at a given point. Thanks for sharing.

    WTF Utah?

    I just got back Saturday from an off road motorcycle trip around Moab/Canyonlands. I was very dissapointed to have only see two R1Ts the entire week we were there, and both in the town of Moab itself, none on the trails or back roads.

    21” tires and snow- winter travel

    I went a different route. My R1T came with 20" and I bought a set of take off 21" to drive most of the year - for extra range. To get up our very steep, long driveway when it is snowy and icy, studs are the way to go. I bought a stud gun, drilled my 20" tires, and studded them. They were...

    Why is odometer/trips buried in two touch menu?

    Absolutely! To do a quick calculation of a location some distance out you usually quickly glance down, pick up the odometer reading and add the distance to it in your head. This is accomplished while your eyes are on the road. With the Rivian, you first look off axis to the center screen, you...

    Who wants a Rivian diecast or model R1T/R1S toy truck, or RC?

    I scuffed the paint surfaces with Scotch-Brite. I masked the top first and painted the undercarriage. Next I masked off the sides and painted the bed all satin black. Lastly, I masked the wheels, glass, lights, and decals (Rivian and R1T), then air brushed the color portion of the truck...

    What do you want addressed in the next OTA update?

    I really want a way to connect a rear aux brake light for times I have the roof top tent or the motorcycle on the hitch hauler. Adventure items that obscure the OEM brake lights are a safety problem. If we had a setting so we could plug in an aux light to the rear trailer harness WITHOUT...

    Disable wall charger status lights?

    It drove me crazy at first as well, so I used black electrical tape. It's been on for a year and a half now and works great.

    Are the ventilated seats wimpy or is it just my truck?

    Mine are back to the level of comfort they once were. I now run them on low as high will freeze you out. Perfect!

    Safety issue: tailgate top molding fall apart too easy.

    I could see mine was a little loose so a little over a year ago, so as a preventative, I put a small bead of black silicone seal around the entire edge. Use a smoothing tool and you don't even notice it. It has been solid ever since and given no issues like popping up or coming off.

    What is the general consensus for paying Rivian service to update between 20” and 21” wheels?

    I did the same. I had the re-calibration to 21" since that is going to be most of the year. I just used my stud gun and studded the 20". I used them throughout the winter for ice and snow with no apparent problem.

    How low have you run the battery?

    I took my Guzzi for service in the bed of my truck. I saw there was an EA charging station 6miles from the shop so no problem. When I got off the interstate I had 1mi remaining in range and it was 3 mi to the shop. I dropped off the bike and headed for the charger. Within 100ft I got a...

    What do you want addressed in the next OTA update?

    I would still like the ability to add a light strip/bar to the rear for safety when hauling items, like my motorcycle, on the rear hitch hauler. If they will not let us have additional signal light with what is already on the tailgate, then let us tap into the trailer harness plug without...
