  1. The GOAT of Rivian R2 reviews IS COMING!

    I have no R2 reserved, so therefore no skin in the game... Kyle is being a baby if he's complaining that he didn't get one sooner.
  2. R2 Orders / VIN / Deliveries List Tracker + Stats 📊

    Apologies, I misread your post!
  3. R2 Orders / VIN / Deliveries List Tracker + Stats 📊

    People don't want to post the whole vin for privacy reasons. If they give only a few digits, it gives forums members an idea of when the vehicle was built without tracking down the exact number.
  4. High Capacity Battery (Lucky me?)

    The latter. But you answered my quest in that it is an"AI" analysis, which means it's very much not reliable.
  5. R2 teething/early issues -- Talk about your post-delivery concerns or headaches

    Because they wanted to put their money towards something more important than a motorized door for the charging port? The design they chose for the R1 does some crazy moves, so maybe they went with a simple flap as it's most likely easier and cheaper to replace. Plus, it's really only EVs that...
  6. PSA: 40% Up-Charge on Tesla Superchargers (Unless You Do This)

    Keep in mind that DCFC stations don't pay the same rates for electricity that a residential customer (or even some commercial customers) do. There's higher demand charges because the amount of power that must be available for use is larger, infrastructure costs for the transformer that is on...
  7. rivian google maps vs native google maps

    It's been part of the R1 navigation for a while, so I'm guessing that it was always in the R2 software/nav...... but as I stated in a different post, weirder things have happened.
  8. 2,115 Mile Camping & Towing Travel Trailer through California & Oregon

    I think that thread was one of the things that sealed the deal with my wife and us replacing our Model Y with the R1T... so thanks!
  9. 2,115 Mile Camping & Towing Travel Trailer through California & Oregon

    One thing I like to say about camping/towing is that slowing down and enjoying the journey as well as the destination is a good mindset.
  10. rivian google maps vs native google maps

    In my case, the closure was due to an accident, and it happened when we were driving.
  11. rivian google maps vs native google maps

    The Rivian navigation very much alters routes based on traffic conditions, etc. My wife and were driving west to Seattle and it ended up doing a giant reroute due to a freeway closure about 100 miles ahead of us. It ended up going back to it as the closure was reversed a little while later, but...
  12. rivian google maps vs native google maps

    Depending on how you tap on the destination in the vehicle when setting up a route, you can get alternates to show up - I believe if you tap on the name and not the "go" button, it will present alternates (if any are available). At lest, this is how it behaves in the R1 line - maybe RivianOS 2.0...
  13. R2 Highway Efficiency Test: 80 MPH vs 70 MPH Changed Everything

    To my knowledge, a 'cycle' is a fully 100% to 0% drain & re-charge. Any fractional use (say, drain from 70%-60% then recharge back to 70%) is a fraction of a cycle. Battery experts, please correct me if I'm wrong!
  14. Music from USB drive in R2

    That's how I am in my R1. Granted, my music library is small enough to fit on my phone - about 163gb, so I'm not missing anything so I don't have to use any audio streaming services...
  15. R2 Highway Efficiency Test: 80 MPH vs 70 MPH Changed Everything

    The Lyriq's battery has 20kWh more capacity and the vehicle is more aerodynamic than the R2.
  16. Regenerative braking explained for “dummies”, me

    If the video above is anything like another one I watched, it also went over the physical slowing that happens due to the magnetic field so that it's not just generating electricity but actively slowing the vehicle down. It was really cool...... but I think it's buried in my YouTube watch history...
  17. Next R2 Software Update (2026.24) is Big! Garage Door Opener, Pet Comfort Mode, Gear Guard, Launch Mode, WiFi Hotspot & More

    Sure sounds like a bug! Send in some feedback via the app to let Rivian know.
  18. Moving R1T a tiny amount to hook up trailer

    Just very slowly feather the throttle - it took a bit for me going from a Model Y hitching up to my R1T, but my wife and I have it pretty dialed in now (she's the one giving me distance callouts, since she has what may be bionic eyes...)
  19. R2 cargo area air flow for dogs

    "Says"? In all seriousness, cute cate, and which one won the staring contest?
