    Hey Flipped R1T, Meet Stuck R1S

    So if no one is watching 'Matt's off road recovery' on YouTube, or any of the channels that they work with like 'tow mater' and all sorts of fun stuff, it's pretty fascinating what people get up to and what it takes to get them out. The biggest issue is the drought, the water is receding and...

    Update: Your Max Pack Preorder - R1T’s Max Pack only available w/ Dual-Motor. Unavailable w/ Quad-Motor starting 2023

    So I'm trying to read this disappointment, but I had called this earlier when they started shitcanning all the features that made me want this vehicle (Kitchen with all the trimmings, tent and then all the options are gone and have to be bought extra, and now, the last remaining reason) But...

    Max pack order invited to R1T Shop. Again...

    You know how I know you haven't priced these recently? 25% of the cost, that's laughable, if anything they're more expensive. RTT's that hold 2-3 people are from $3k to 5K unless you just get a tarp and lay it under some sticks.

    Max pack order invited to R1T Shop. Again...

    hah, new 'we've deleted things from your order' email, all the options, spare tires, cross bars, all weather mats. you know, the things you always typically get from a car dealer when you buy a car.

    Max pack order invited to R1T Shop. Again...

    I got my first 'hey take one sooner' and right now there are 5 on there in configs I'm not interested in (missing off-road stuff) So I must admit, I'm becoming less and less enamored withe the R1T. The kitchen/tent was the main reason it had spousal approval factor but now it's fading fast...

    Tesla to open “Dealership” in Asheville NC

    Hendrick paid a pretty penny to all the state rep critters they could fund. It will be an uphill battle for some time I'm afraid, as why should our government benefit its citizens when you can get paid to benefit business. We also have no solar HOA laws either, so if your HOA is an idiot and...

    Gave up on R1S and ordered a 4Runner TRD Off-Road Premium today.

    I ended up doing this but with a LR Defender. In NC. Both my orders now say 'delivery pending'. I hadn't heard that they won't deliver without a service center in the state, we don't have any and can't thanks to the NADA bought and paid for state legislature. Frustrating, Haven't cancelled...

    Alex on Autos' Follow-Up After Selling His R1T

    I'm envious of your model Y drain, one of the reasons I got rid of our X was even with a big warranty job supposedly to fix it, it was still losing 5-7% a week just sitting. I even reset the computer and left it unconnected from anything and in three weeks of sitting in driveway went from 90%...

    Max Pack delayed to 2024 according to configurator / email 😔

    I'm not surprised, but this pushes my Chevy pre-order up the list. with their 800V charging on twin 400v systems plan, that really makes it appealing as a tower of things. One can hope the delay means that would come from Rivian as well. Seems like a win/win for large batteries. The...

    Rivian email update 10/13 on Camp Kitchen, Gear Tunnel Shuttle, and Rooftop Tent

    One of the main reasons I ordered the truck was the camp kitchen/tent combo. With no slide either you can't really DIY. I am trying not to but the longer this drags on the less excited and amped up for I am getting.

    Does anyone know what camping trailer this Rivian R1T is pulling? [Updated: Airstream Basecamp]

    I evaluated these, they're nice but for the $ the interior is way to much effort to convert around. There are a number of youtube videos and it's like 20 step process to turn the back part into the bed. At the moment the Conqueror 490 UEV is my favorite. No internal bathroom which is fine by...

    Selling reservation?

    not much longer if the fed guys have their way, they'll make the loan on cars back up to 8% again. Not getting a R1T/S because of the $7500 potential credit is silly when you're getting a $20k credit IMHO.

    North Carolina Anti-EV "Equitable Free Vehicle Fuel Stations" Bill - $50k to remove EV charging stations

    Speaking as someone who has lived here for 23 years now... Our state 'general assembly' only meats biennially, and they have a few weeks to do what these days seems like 'a bunch of stupid things' including this gem. Between those two sessions there is a first reading, second reading, third...

    Let's take the R1T to a tractor pull

    Gap Insurance Needed - California

    is it though? have y'all met insurance companies when your car gets wrecked? your car is suddenly worth less than what you paid for it, less than what the market is, and you have to just bend over and take it or hire a lawyer and pay them all the money and still get nothing. Gap insurance...

    Max Pack Update? Anyone?

    I ordered Sep 2021, so first number I got was 2H23. I'm expecting 1H24 or 2H24 at this rate, if not later. Until that 25K a year number ticks up, I don't expect them to add any more vehicles to the line unless its SUPER easy to add the Max Pack. SO, based on all that, when my Defender I got...

    Carplay? Next?

    Polestar just added it as well, was an OTA, quite happy with it. needs bit more EV integration with their mapping but overall was happy with the update.

    Airstream Towing w/ R1T - 500 Miles Over Flatlands and Mountains

    I have no suggestions I thought it was great. I also like your t-shirt about don’t mind what I say when parking the camper. Other than laughing at your daughter on the back drivers side getting tired of you two talking and started miming you :). That was priceless. I thought it was great...

    Airstream Towing w/ R1T - 500 Miles Over Flatlands and Mountains

    Stumbled across this, didn't see it posted here yet. Some folks driving the R1T with a big airstream behind it, showed their charging experiences and towing stats.

    Don't hate me cause I'm an Idiot.

    Polestar 2 Single Motors, or ID.4 RWD can be ordered now and gotten in a few months. With the Polestar they may have inventory you can pick/chose that is pre-built. That's how I got mine in two weeks.
