A Porsche windshield is only $1200ish?? I had a 2015 Volvo XC70 prior to my R1S and that windshield was $2200.00 CDN. I was told by my friend, the owner of a local InstaGlass, that, as Technerd said, it is the recalibrations that make it so expensive.

Thanks so much for the valuable information. The wedding is the end of August so warm weather. Your experience travelling across the prairies is what I was really interested in hearing about. I have been using the Tesla network travelling between Vancouver and Quesnel and agree the chargers are...

Your thoughts and advice are truly appreciated! I am indeed already signed up for the Canadian charging accounts including the Tesla network. I am also well a Rivian Roamer follower so will check out the paid subscription.

Thank you so much for your reply and great info! I did not know about the Tesla charging club so I will def check that out. And the cinnamon bun contest .....

Da Hounds

One of the critters is in my profile pic!

My son and his fiance, who live in Quesnel BC, have decided to get married in Sudbury ON. They have two larger dogs that they would love to have at the ceremony but alas the kids are flying. I'm thinking of taking the pups on a cross Canada adventure as a gift to my son and his bride. Has anyone...

Should have said east/north of Hope on Highways 1, 3 and 5

It is worth mentioning that winter tires are now required if you head to Whistler on Highway 99 or go east of Hope on Highway 1.

Thank you all! Worked as advertised.

I store my reg and insurance in the elasticized pocket attached to the back of the front passenger seat. Should the authorities need to see them, I can reach back and voila.

We still can't buy a t-shirt online and only recently is any gear available at the Richmond service centre. RAN? Not likely.

I received a call 2 weeks ago about not only tightening the fasteners but also replacing the 12v battery. Went today to the Richmond BC service centre and it was done in just over an hour. Anyone else having their 12v replaced as well?

Well, how about being in a country with zero RAN stations and apparently no plans to build one. All one has to do is drive for a day in Greater Vancouver to see how many RivIans there are here. A trip to Whistler reveals the same. Oh well. We still can’t buy a t-shirt online and have it...

I hope the replacement fixes the problem! I had a similar issue while on holiday on Vancouver Island in August. No luck fast charging at 4 different charger locations within an hour. Once I plugged in, the Rivian would almost immediately tell me to unplug and try again. This had happened twice...

"inflection point of sustained profits"? Get out your dictionary before you start using big words friend.

Congrats Anjoo on taking delivery of your R1S1 As a native Edmontonian I'm hoping you - and I - see more on the road soon. I must say you are more understanding than I would have been with regard to that misaligned roof panel. Terrible. It's hard to understand how Rivian could have okay'd your...

That sounds very odd and unnatural - I've not heard anything like this in my 8 months of ownership.

When I was preparing to take delivery of my R1S in June I briefly discussed trading in my 2015 Volvo XC70 with my guide in Vancouver. Without discussing numbers he advised that I was better off selling privately or taking it to a Volvo dealer because Rivian wasn't really in the used vehicle...

Sigh. Rivvy doesn't qualify.
