  1. R1T tailgate part question

    An unkown person backed into my tailgate - likely with a. truck. The metal bodywork ABOVE the light bar took most of the brunt. I think the ding below can be pulled out. My question is whether the top piece is separate from the lower portion that has RIVIAN across it. Obviously my preference...
  2. Cancelling my Pre-order, thoughts inside from test drive

    You should go to a dealer and try it now. It is really, really good. I have had a Tesla since 2017 and currently have a 23 Model S with HW4 and started using FSD pretty much full time now. I wouldn't have spoken so highly of it a year ago but the development of the robotaxi program has...
  3. How Far Out Will Rivian Buyout Your Lease?

    I just went through this and it was a massive pain in the ass. Long story short is I had to utilize the buyout option from chase on my Tesla M3. It took about ten days to get the title in my hand but carmax won’t buy your car until you flip the title to your name (at least that was my...
  4. 120 miles/day - Rivian R2 vs BMW i3X

    Go BMW. I just don't think Rivian is where it should be at the price point. I just took delivery of an R1T not too long ago and while it is great for my purposes there are things that are really annoying about it. Build quality is a bit marginal and the autonomy + is hot garbage. You could...
  5. Self driving update: Gen 2 and Gen 3 Autonomy on R2 should be similar for a "couple of years"

    A+ isn’t even close to ready for prime time. I was driving home late the other night after getting . I was on a soft bend on the 101 when it disengaged with a failure alert (I can’t recall the exact wording) and the car quickly pulled to the right. If there had been a car to my right I would...
  6. Friend bought ModelY after keeping R1S for a day, and after learning about R2

    I have the R1T and my wife has the model S. Both are great cars but for different reasons. I think the biggest differentiators are: efficiency: tesla Drivers assistance: tesla Comfort: Rivian Creativity/fun: Rivian the software is a draw for me..neither have car play!
  7. Autonomy+ issues and questions...

    I got a timely email from Rivian today asking me "Have you tried autonomy+?" Yes, I have, and it not only sucks but it is dangerous. I just wrapped up an 800 mile road trip up to Mammoth and while driving there late Thursday night I was hoping to rely on the autonomy+. I don' know if it was...
  8. Car owners revolting over Tesla's self driving promises

    Elon and the actual technology really need to be separated here when discussing it. I am by no means an Elon fanboy these days (I used to be) and I think he has ruined a perfectly great car company by all the distractions and pivoting away from cars. BUT, the technology they are developing is...
  9. Car owners revolting over Tesla's self driving promises

    My wife drives a 23 Tesla Model S. After the most recent update the self driving is really really good. Like one poster above said - nearly flawless. I would trust it to drive me over someone I don't know. It took a few iterations to get there and I may discover something down the line...
  10. R1 Gen 3 - Wish list

    I actually used mine for the first time today and it does suck.
  11. Why Did You Choose Rivian Over Competitors?

    - I needed a truck and wanted an EV as I am a big fan even before the recent spike in gas prices (I have had Two Tesla Model S (2017 and 2023) and still have my 2023 Model S) - Having owned an F150 and Silverado I did not want a full size truck as they are a pain in the ass to live with on a...
  12. Mammoth Lakes, CA RAN Charger is LIVE!!!

    New to rivian ownership. Is there an advantage to using the RAN network over Tesla SC?
  13. App not connected to car so can’t remotely control anything

    Sorted it out. I had to allow the app to access my digital key for it to work properly.
  14. App not connected to car so can’t remotely control anything

    Also it says “pair your phone to access more features” in the app.
  15. App not connected to car so can’t remotely control anything

    Just picked up my R1T yesterday but when I am away from the car and the app will not connect to the car. 1. the cars LTE has a good signal. 2. My phone works as a digital key although I think that is Bluetooth and not app related. any suggestions?
  16. New R1T owner in so cal

    I am picking up pretty much the exact same spec down to the wheels on Friday! Did you tint the moon roof? I know it has been hotter than all hell this week (I am up in the Santa Barbara area) so the cars are getting insanely hot not matter what but I was wondering how much the cloud feature...
