    Vampire Drain Relating to Frunk Trim -- my solution to reduce drain %

    OTA did nothing for this issue. I am trying this method. I see about 3% every 8-12 hours, which for a car sitting in a garage doing nothing is not "within spec." Service tech was at my location today and said 4-5% loss a day is expected... not by any other manufacturer or anyone with common...

    vampire drain still an issue with new update. Rivian service says 4% is normal still. I am going to try to "remove plastic piece from frunk" trick to see if that helps.

    Wind Noise

    I can hear wind noise, but not sure it's worse than my other cars, or if it's just cause I can actually hear it without the engine. Now, when I put my Rivian roof rack on, that's another story. That thing whistles like crazy.

    Counterpoint to the onslaught of negative points

    I've had my R1S for 2 weeks, and it gets better every day. When I look at my friends and coworkers trying to get Tellurides, Pilots, and other "regular" cars that are now going for 65-75K (there is a Sequoia listed near me for 105K!!) I am really happy to be where I am with my new R1S. Can't...

    Ride quality R1S vs R1T? Should I be worried about reviews?

    I haven't driven my R1S a lot yet (just got it last Saturday), but it is pretty bouncy. I tried All-purpose High rather than the medium setting, and that seemed to reduce the bounce a lot - a much smoother ride. And on sport/stiff; forgetaboutit. The family did not like that at all. I think...

    Update: my LE r1s was delivered this Saturday from Richmond! March 2019 to January 2024. LG/FE 20a/t underbody. They did forget my storage hooks and there are a few alignment issues, but other than that seems great!

    R1S : Oct-Dec Delivery (Now Jan-Feb or Feb-Mar 2023)

    Okay... I got an email to "confirm my configuration" and 15 minutes after confirming, I got 2 emails. the first "time to purchase" and second "guide assignment." Pretty awesome, but also shocking! I can't even talk to my guide until after Christmas. Do you all know if I have some kind of...

    R1S/Chicago IL to Potomac MD Delivery Roadtrip/EA Charger Gremlins

    3/19 LE R1S LG/FE 20a/t in NOVA here - across the River in McLean. Rivian hasn’t contacted me once except with general delay emails. If they called and said we’ve got a rivian blue truck with your name on it, I’d certainly consider it. Or maybe not given all your issues…

    Kanundrum's R1S Build Thread (1 year Anniversary)

    Man I wonder why they won't even talk to me... March 2019 LE R1S in Tyson's. Signed up for everything I could. Not a peep from them. Congrats on your delivery though! Winner wonder if the 20 a/t tires have the same bounciness issue?

    🤩 [UPDATE: R1S Delivered! First Reactions + Photos] Friday will be a good day -- scheduled R1S delivery date

    Did you get a test drive ever? Mid Atlantic as far as I know still hasn't been able to get test drives. I'm a March 19 R1S LE holder and have not heard a peep from Rivian.

    Introducing the R1 Shop... Email Communication

    March 19 R1S with May/June 22 delivery window... I got the email and read it as "your R1S delayed until 2023..." Glad I didn't get more stock. Hyundai/Kia will be the first SUV to market and likely dominate.

    R1S first look videos from Yosemite [shows space available with seats folded, connections, & storage]

    In the show models one could snap the roof rails into those tracks and make a level-ish platform with them and the armrest. Wonder if that is still the case?

    R1S first look videos from Yosemite [shows space available with seats folded, connections, & storage]

    Ok, let's say the roll on luggage is about 22-23 inches wide, it looks like perhaps there is another foot of headroom above that, so for to ceiling around 32-35 inches estimated. My minivan is 37 inches. I'm guessing it's likely near the lower range, so a good 5 inches less

    R1S first look videos from Yosemite [shows space available with seats folded, connections, & storage]

    If they are really 5'3 then this is Q5 moreso than Yukon on the inside. Have they released the floor to ceiling height? I hope they made 10 more YouTube shorts showing the seats. And different stuff in back. I need to te-watch, how close was that rolling luggage to the ceiling?

    RJ Shows interior of R1S (Canyon Red)

    1. That red is really nice 2. It seems really short when he's in there. Height from the folded seats to ceiling made him really cramped. I don't remember being that cramped in a suburban or my minivan, but honestly I don't do that very often...
