    Slow speed full turn axle hop

    My R1S has been exhibiting weird behavior recently. With the wheel fully cut, the passenger rear wheel is hopping. For car people it feels like a car with a locked differential. At first I thought it was just catching on a difference in my concrete pad as I pulled from the garage, however I...

    Center console lid rattle

    Does anyone else have a continuously rattly center console lid (11.5k miles)? Basically mine doesnt rattle if i leave it open, or if i compress the two halves inward. there's just about 1/16' of play that if taken out relieves this. Pressure on either sides of the lid does not stop it. I dont...

    Rivian home charger fault 3 days in a row (and a PI request from Rivian)

    Had the R1S since January, >4000 flawless miles, 99% home charging without ever even a hiccup. Friday night: charger only delivered 3% overnight, came out to find a red ring around the charge port. Saturday day: app said charger not communicating via bluetooth, so I tried to re- pair it 3x...

    Interior cleaning question (the fabric strip in the seat)

    ran a half marathon this am. hopped in the R1S despite sitting on a towel some of my funk made it through to the seat. Used my toddler's scentless baby wipe when I got home, but there's the fabric strip. What do you all used to clean the seats and then what for the fabric?

    R1S Delivery Checklist

    Seems that A LOT of us are getting vehicles in the next couple of weeks. There's a 5-page checklist for the R1T that has some crazy stuff. R1T LOTI Realistically, with home delivery, how do you temper your excitement enough to look for big-ticket stuff in the allotted time objectively? I never...

    R1S Forest Edge pic thread

    As I sit waiting for Feb-March for my LG/FE R1S, I'd love to see Forest Edge interiors as they're produced. As far as I know, there havent been any yet. Thanks

    22's in occasional snow

    Anyone who has them give us a winter report. I wanted the 22 Sport for appearance, street performance and range. We don't get a ton of snow in Cincinnati (and most is plowed anyways) but just curious if performance was poor enough to merit a 20' winter combo. My 2014 Grand Cherokee on 20"...

    Happy Rivian thoughts after years of waiting (and still waiting)

    Seems like all we do is grumble. Or watch other people get theirs. I, like a lot of people, ordered sight unseen due to pandemic and what not. I was able to make it out to the Venice hub in December to see and touch for the first time. I put a huge amount of money (my first real stock purchase)...

    So as of mid November 2021, whos seen one, driven one etc?

    While we twiddle our thumbs and hunker down for winter, I was thinking its time for another poll. Tired of pick your configuration polls, lets go with what level of exposure do you have to RIVN?

    Cant decide on a combo groupthink [megathread]

    I've noticed that myself and others inundate other threads with our personal configuration choices (namely the color discussion threads in show and tell). Lets just do a big rolling color discussion thread. Anything goes. This will help us dispel our nervous energy for good. I have white E...

    Doug Demuro Review (eventual placeholder) - predictions (as of 9/2/21)

    Since MT got their hands on a Prepro R1T and loved it, its a matter of time before Doug gets one. I hope its a nicely screwed together one. I LOVE predicting his scores and usually can within a point (and get the overall categories almost perfectly). lets see if my rivian fandom will cloud...

    Rivian is one of the few vehicles that looks great in every color so far (the colors thread)

    I just wanna say with other vehicles there are obvious choices, or just some stuff to avoid. I have changed my mind at least 4 times in the past 3-4 weeks as these real world photos come out. Originally I was R1S / Forest Green / Ocean coast / 22s for a range rover vibe. Decided I like the...

    Any issue with changing delivery location?

    I'm in KY. My dad has a business in IL and my sister lives in LA. Is there any legal (registration, pushback from Rivian, tax credit) issue with putting a different delivery address or does it have to be registered where it's delivered? It it unethical or just playing the game?

    Forest Edge People

    After seeing this, I’m really interested in forest edge. I can’t imagine it’ll look like a 70s Oldsmobile if it’s the premium option offered. For those who chose it, what model and exterior are you going with? Looks great (safe) White Midnight Granite Limestone Silver Should go (why else offer...
