  1. RAN Rivian Charging Stations Locations Map via Google Maps

    I also charged at Strongsville, OH yesterday. Seemless, although the APP and Rivian's navigation map have the chargers on the wrong side of the restaurant. They're on the east side of Charley's. The PlugShare APP has it right (embarrassing, Rivian).
  2. Michigan Rivian Club

    Moving next month from Metro Detroit to Kalamazoo. Sure hope they hurry up and open the Grand Rapids service shop, as my Mar'22 R1T has needed/still needs fixes on the little stuff. Overall, love the truck and so glad to get rid of the Tesla Model 3 that felt too detached from the road and...
  3. door wind noise-driver side

    I've had three separate causes of wind noise on my early R1T ...30xx. 1) trim on the glass triangle as mentioned above 2) Driver's window didn't close 100% (just 99%) and left a tiny gap between upper window and the seal (little issue with huge noise) 3) body-color panel separating top of...
  4. SE Michigan Owners?

    The Michigan service team is way understaffed with just two technicians. My service appointment for a driver's window that got out of it's "groove" was pushed back, and then they told me to drop it off but that it may be a week before anyone touched it. I chose to hang on to the truck and now...
  5. Service appointment 3 months out ?

    For non-safety repairs, it's a 3+ month wait in Michigan. Nice crew at the repair shop, but woefully understaffed. I was prepared for the glitches of a new vehicle, but Rivian likely overestimated the quality and reliability of their vehicles' many parts. They need more technicians.
  6. (Alex on Autos) 2022 R1T Road Trip Range Test! 338 Miles on 21" Wheels

    After three months, range is better (maybe warmer weather). Recent trip of 304miles (with 25 to spare) going 60-70mph in Conserve mode and some headwinds on the AT 20's. This is much better than my 2018 Model 3 .
  7. Rattles & Squeaks

    I've also had the "chirping" sound from the front since I got the truck. Most noticeable over small bumps. It sounds like the suspension is loose (like on a 30 year old work truck), even though the suspension feels tight. It's subtle but noticeable. I'm in for service in late August and will...
  8. A/C Performance

    Agree with loud AC compressor noise. Also in MI for first hot day (97F) and the AC was the loudest I've ever heard. OK at cooling (not great), but OK. Vent position and adjustment are the worst part of the vehicle (for me). Very annoying to try to position the vents, only for some computer...
  9. Tesla to Rivian: Any Regrets?

    Traded in the 2018 Model 3 AWD LR for the LE R1T and no regrets. The Rivian has the expected software glitches of a new EV, but build quality is far superior, feels much more solid than the 3, and the steering is so much better (hated the model 3's steering). Rivian range as good if not...
  10. Trade In Process and Value?

    I traded in my Tesla Model 3 at slightly better than KBB. Super easy process with no surprises. Rivian handles the paperwork and I save on sales tax. Maybe a private sale would have yielded more, but doubt enough to offset the sales tax savings and hassle.
  11. Any "March-April" delivery people contacted?

    Mar-Apr delivery window with relatively late order compared to most on this thread (Sept'19), R1T, LA silver, Black Int, 20" wheels, Metro Detroit. No guide contact or phone calls.
  12. Who’s now uncancelling?

    The backlash was likely bigger than Rivian realized. Those who cancelled early drove the reversal (thank you), but I suspect many more who chose not to react so quickly would have backed away. Despite the apology, I'm not seeing the changes needed to ensure this kind of disastrous lack of...
  13. ? RJ's Letter -- Making it Right -- REVERSING THE PRICE CHANGE FOR PREORDER HOLDERS

    As someone with a Mar-Apr delivery window, I was fully prepared to cancel my purchase had they not reversed course. Kudos to those that pulled the actual trigger early to send the needed message. I was prepared to say "no way" when my actual delivery was imminent, but it didn't get that far...
  14. R1T & R1S Updated Pricing, Configuration, Specs. Dual Motor Now Available

    Hmmmm..... let's see: 1) Brand new company with cool idea gets thousands of passionate folks to put down deposits. Huge head start on the competition. Maybe another Tesla, but with an under-promise, over-deliver feel. 2) Delays and poor communication don't seem to quell initial enthusiasm...
  15. Current Tesla Owners: Moving to Rivian

    My 2018 Model 3 AWD with bigger battery has done well, but I'd like more cargo capacity and ruggedness. The Tesla just feels too delicate, and after shelling out thousands for their full-self-driving feature, I'm still waiting.
  16. March - April 2022 Delivery Club/Hype Thread

    Mar-Apr window, LE R1T, LA Silver with Black Mountain, 20" AT's with Off-Road package. Pre-ordered Sept'19, Metro Detroit area hoping for option of picking it up in Normal. I'll believe the delivery window when I drive away in my truck. Not holding my breath.....not any more.

  18. $3500 for Black Rims on Launch Edition is too much - after market options?

    Electuck is right. I'm venting over an extra $3500 for alloy wheels that are black instead of silver.......for a truck. Value = Quality / Cost. I just don't see much value in this offer. At least we have a choice.
  19. $3500 for Black Rims on Launch Edition is too much - after market options?

    For $3500, I would hope they are carbon fiber. Either way, I'm not interested, just disappointed.
