  1. EV use can be more expensive than gas

    Simply focus on the exhaust tailpipes as you drive and breath in deeply, that is not a generalization, it’s reality!! Just because it doesn’t stink real bad is not black in color does not mean it’s okay for your lungs!! Stop being lemmings, sheep, parrots … Focus on the tailpipes and think...
  2. EV use can be more expensive than gas

    That is exactly what I am talking about! You cannot financially justify ICE over EV
  3. EV use can be more expensive than gas

    Pretty much nothing manufactured is clean! ICE vs EV manufacturing impact is probably a wash. My comments are squarely directed at the continued absurd burning and spewing of toxic particle filled exhaust from billions of ICEs every day. The thousands of tanker trucks hauling toxic gasoline to...
  4. EV use can be more expensive than gas

    EV are much more than a gadget! Every time you start and ICE you spew toxic crap into your air and everybody else air. You fill your tank with a toxic explosive that is sloshed, leaked all over the country. Justifying an ICE financially is selfish, short sited and plain ignorant. Next time you...

    That sounds like a great idea. The meeting place also sounds appropriate.

    Thank you! It turns out that I estimated 80 ft/lbs and used that.
  9. Warranty issues post running board install?

    EV1 running boards installed! Just need to apply the Gorilla patch tape. They definitely making getting in and out of the truck much easier. They look good too! Thanks to everyone who replied. I used my torque wrench to estimate the body bolt torque spec.

    BTW, what is the torque spec for the body bolts? Thank you in advance.
  11. Warranty issues post running board install?

    I am puzzled by Rivian’s decision to not have running boards initially and then to have not addressed it with a retrofit. I use the kneel mode which helps but is still not enough. My concern with constant kneeling is the wear on the air suspension. Today is the day that I will install my EV1...

    Stevetom84 and camaroz1985 thank you for your replies. I agree with what you have said but was hoping to hear from someone that has had direct experience post running board install with Rivian service. I have my EV1 running boards ready to install and I fully accept having to potentially remove...

  16. Boise Demo Drive

    Hi. How did the demo drive go? I am sort of glad I did not get a demo drive before taking delivery as I think it would have made the wait for delivery more agonizing.

    'Baymax' thank you for your post and setting up the 'Idaho Rivian Club'. A "house warming" celebration for the Boise SC would be great. A good time to meet the local Rivian owners and the Boise Rivian SC team.
  18. Boise Service Center is under construction

    FWIW we have had our R1T for 1 yr. and 6,500 miles. It has been a joy to own and drive. We use it to go camping(roof top tent), haul stuff and pleasure drive. We have not had any issues. It is our all around vehicle that fits all of our needs, especially it's size. Not too small and not too big...

    I vacillate between keeping them on or just removing them. I wish I knew what Rivian's justification was for having them. For looks or for something functional. It seems to me that they offer some protection for water spray on wet roads leading to less possibility of rust. They are not water...
