  1. What’s Coming in 2026.15 Update, Including Rivian Assistant

    The contents of this release are WAY more interesting to me than the autonomy stuff, currently. I want quality of life to be at least as important as new capabilities for the Rivian software team.
  2. Would you pay $495 for your frunk? Mach-E buyers will have to

    Like the parking assist button that now just does nothing? Hey... they could make that open the frunk. ;-)
  3. Would you pay $495 for your frunk? Mach-E buyers will have to

    Remember when BMW floated the idea of heated seats being a subscription service? $10 a month be warm in the winter. It didn't go over well and they canned the idea.
  4. Would you pay $495 for your frunk? Mach-E buyers will have to

    Agreed. My Model S and Model X just held things like snow chains, charger adapters, etc. But 6 weeks in and I use the R1S' frunk aaaaaaaall the time. Take out? No smelly cabin, yes please. Shopping at the mall? Not visible and more secure, yes please. Same with my wife's purse or my laptop bag...
  5. Would you pay $495 for your frunk? Mach-E buyers will have to

    The issue (as many Mach E users on this thread have pointed out) is that Ford noticed nobody uses the frunk. So, instead of going “why is that and can we fix it?” they decided it’s optional. But if it had an exterior release or a release on the key fob, it might get more use.
  6. New Wheels Installed! Atomic Wheels AW09 20x9 ET25 in Antique Bronze + Toyo Open Country AT3 EV tires (275/65/20)

    Understood. I'm simply saying the OP chose what they chose based primarily on aesthetic, I'm assuming. My feedback: I think they look great. Your comment on efficiency I also get. My only point on that is that we will see what has more impact on efficiency: the tires sticking out .91" more and...
  7. New Wheels Installed! Atomic Wheels AW09 20x9 ET25 in Antique Bronze + Toyo Open Country AT3 EV tires (275/65/20)

    I understand now - your comment was based purely on the offset distance. Since the new wheels likely had an offset change vs the factory Dune wheels, I don't know how much they are actually different: .5"? .7"? 1"? It will be interesting to see how the more efficient tire + lighter wheel vs. the...
  8. New Wheels Installed! Atomic Wheels AW09 20x9 ET25 in Antique Bronze + Toyo Open Country AT3 EV tires (275/65/20)

    I'm confused. They are the exact same size as the Pirelli Scorpions that came from the factory on my brand new R1S and the are uniquely EV designed - meaning it's lighter than the likes of a BFG AO3, has an aerodynamic sidewall (AeroWing) to help maintain range and a specialized tread compound...
  9. Where is the new AI Rivian Assistant?

    Coming from a Tesla one month ago, I can tell you with no hesitation that the new assistant / intelligence is way more important to me than self driving. Biggest things I miss on a day to day basis from my prior vehicle: - being able to ask it to navigate to places and have it pick the right...
