    Counterpoint to the onslaught of negative points

    Ditto here. Almost 12K miles, the truck is performing beautifully. OTA updates make it better and better. Continually accosted by admiring and curious folks. No regrets here whatsoever. And the one time one of those souped up Dodge Chargers pulled up next to me at a stoplight, gunning his...

    Article: "Rivian Continues To Fall Apart"

    What an asshat. A ridiculously biased article which clearly has a personal or corporate agenda. My bullshit meter just exploded.

    What do you want addressed in the next OTA update?

    ā€œResumeā€ function for ACC/Driver+ after cancelling with the brake pedal. Please. The rightmost button on the wheel.

    R1T Rollover Flipped!

    With the battery pack so low, the R1Tā€™s center of gravity is super-low. You would have to try really hard to roll one. Mine is ā€œon railsā€ turning hard at high speeds on the road. But you combine soft dirt and cranking the wheel as hard as you can with some serious torque, and here you are...

    No. See my OP. None of the ā€˜avoidsā€™ have been turned on at any point.

    Interesting that last piece you mentioned. Also, starting from where I happen to be now, it takes me right up 70? Home is a bit east off of 101.

    Sounds good - I'd be very curious if at your convenience, you just asked yours for a route to New Bern - see if it sends you all over ENC!? Hope to see you on the road, Andrew

    Hey Joel, Sorry for the delay, but I'm actually the Black one! I did see the Blue one in James City a couple of weeks ago - waved, but I don't think he saw me. No, not many of us in ENC! Mostly, I'm burning up and down US 70 between New Bern and Morehead, and Temples Point Road. Do you have...

    Navigation Bug

    Originally all was well with my Nav system. A couple of updates ago, the system decided to no longer use the main highway where I live and drive every day, to wit, US-70 between Havelock and New Bern, NC. If I search a route from home to work, or vice-versa, the system sends me all over...

    Do you charge the R1T every night?

    After driving my Rivian for a month, so it can learn my driving habits, the fact that I keep my surfboard and bike racks installed, etc. Iā€™ve made a note in my phone of the date and the mileage estimate for conserve mode after a full charge. That way, I can keep an eye on my degradation over...

    Do you charge the R1T every night?

    Well that sounds great - I stand corrected. And youā€™re probably not an electrical engineer either. But you found the right piece of guidance, from the proverbial horseā€™s mouth. Thatā€™s good enough for me.

    Do you charge the R1T every night?

    On what are you basing this statement? It seems to me the issues are interrelated. Iā€™m no electrical engineer, but The manual clearly states: ā€œLeave the vehicle plugged in IF you donā€™t plan on driving it for a long time.ā€ Not every day.

    Do you charge the R1T every night?

    I refer only to page 124 of the vehicle manual, and what I was told by Rivian support. I guess one could say ā€œWhat do the makers of the vehicle know?ā€ But think about it: why on earth would Rivian tell us in writing that it is best not to use the full range capabilities of the battery every...

    Do you charge the R1T every night?

    No, no, no. That means "When you need to charge, use a Rivian charger whenever possible", as opposed to "Use your Rivian charger every chance you get". You should absolutely not charge every night (unless you're driving so much that you need to). This is the worst thing you can do for your...
