    How low can you go (remaining range)?

    But my was happy ending... pulled into an EA charging station in Quartzsite AZ, lucky that there wasn't any waits, in turtle mode and crawled into the spot. Ever since then, I won't miss a chance to charge.

    How low can you go (remaining range)?

    I had my R1S, not by choice, ran down to 0% 0 mile and still went 4.5 miles down hill. 🥶

    R2 and R3X visit San Jose (photos, reactions, tire sizes)

    I went there yesterday but they already moved the R3 and R3X to somewhere else. The guy said they only have one R3 and R3X, and they are moving them around for showing.

    Rivian R1S questions.

    First off, would you recommend me to get an EV? I believe owning a Rivian or an EV is a lifestyle. When it fits into your own lifestyle, get it; if not, don't. Even within the EVs, there are many different lifestyles. Second, how is reliability? Knocking on wood, my R1S is almost perfect...

    Max mi/kWh limited to 4… why?!

    Maybe find a steeper hill??? Edited: Just found the reason... you tires are all under inflated. (Sorry, couldn't help it 😅)

    To me, the holes are NOT sharp at all.

    Why has my R1S become a sales huckster?

    Stop talking to Alexa, you'll be fine. I had my R1S a little over a year and a half ago; Alexa tried to sell me music subscription the first time when I ask her to play musics. It is not "lately".

    RealWheels EV Stainless Steel Running Boards

    DrG, if you have watched the video, you should be fine. For me, I would say do not over tighten the 10mm bolts (3 on each side) because they just hold the plastic trim panels. I think I over tighten them. The other is I only have T55 and don't have TP55. I tried using my impact driver with...

    RealWheels EV Stainless Steel Running Boards

    I received my order last evening and started my install today. First, I have to say that it was very well packaged. Since I have watched the installation video, I didn't have to read the instructions into details. I took my time and didn't try to be hurry; I guess I used less than four hours...

    Trading 2023 R1S in for a 2024 R1S

    If I had your money, I would too; but I don't... jk, :) New car problems are like hits and misses; personally, I won't gamble with an existing perfect car.

    Self park feature?

    My brother had several Teslas and currently has a S and X. Although FSD was scary when I sat in his X; with the way he drives, the FSD is actually safer. I'm sure there are many people like him on the road. When he summoned his car parking right next to my house; with just a simple backup and...

    Anyone else having Charge Port door issue after 2024.07.02?

    From my own experience and reading from others, Rivian will probably replace the actuator. Some are faster than others; the quickest one on this post was two days, mine took 6 days over a weekend.

    Anyone else having Charge Port door issue after 2024.07.02?

    I called Rivian after I submitted a service request. By phone, they will walk you thru all the resets and will put your ticket into the priority queue; however, the phone rep (if he/she is nice enough), can call the SC directly and they (the local SC) can bring you in as soon as possible (due...

    Anyone else having Charge Port door issue after 2024.07.02?

    I normally do OTA updates while plugging in. However, on 2023.07.02, I didn't plug in while updating. It is hard (for us) to connect the charge port actuator with the OTA updates but if that is what it takes to fix it, Rivian will continue replacing it until Rivian thinks it is a real...

    Rivian service experience with running boards?

    I think we are assuming all SC have the same lifting system and use the jack-point. If they don't, some shops maybe able to do it and some shop cannot. Just saying...

    How do I take my phone out of the Rivian while leaving passengers inside?

    I usually use the Pet Mode. It is quick and easy. The door will lock (which is a security measure in some area) but everything inside the car is normal as your key is inside. The door will unlock when you near the car.
