    I see you, Boulder!

    On a work trip to Boulder, there’s tons of you! That’s all. Just expressing my gratitude for classin’ up the joint.

    For people who *don't* have exposed cargo racks, where do you store jump box?

    Had the dreaded early 12V failure on my R1T. It was drivable, but it did warn to plug it in at every opportunity until getting the 12V replaced (which I did.) That has me wondering though. I have a big old lead-acid jump box + air compressor I've had since my old diesel pickup. It's in the...

    Don't let R-3X drive your R3X...

    (R-3X, the driver of the "ship" you were in on the Star Tours motion-control ride as Disney. Now the DJ in the cantina at Galaxy's Edge; voiced by the late-great Paul Reubens.)

    Zoom and enhance! I really hope this makes it to the R1T via OTA update!

    Sadly, one visiting family member didn’t bring their EV.

    4500 mile towing journey - Portland to Tucson and back; with side trips.

    Summary: The new and improved Tow Mode was applied in the middle of my trip. It was useful in some ways, needs serious improvement in others. No "left me stranded" charging problems, but EA did have one *MAJOR* foul-up that wasted half a day. The West Coast is pretty great for charging...

    Two Rivians couldn’t charge at Tucson Outlet Mall EA!

    On Thursday, I started the “Northward” return trip home with my trailer. First stop, the EA at the Tucson (AZ) Outlet Mall. Charged there successfully on the Southbound portion of the trip, albeit at degraded charging speeds. Plugged in, swiped in the app to start the charge, immediately got...

    New RAN in The Dalles, Oregon - great location, terrible trailer spot.

    Planning a trip to The Dalles this last weekend, I noticed a new RAN located there! Yay! I'd be towing my trailer, so I'd be low on charge, and wanted extra charge to run the trailer over the weekend. Showed up, and the trailer spot is a back-in. Not only is it a back-in, it's one with a barrier...

    Stopped by the Vancouver Experience Center today.

    Pretty slick place. They have a fun augmented reality way to see an R1T up close - and it is amazingly high detail. I put my face RIGHT up to the steering wheel, and I could have sworn I was looking at a real Rivian steering wheel. And I don't know if the AR vehicle's navigation system takes...

    Took the R1T & new trailer to Fully Charged Live (Vancouver, BC)

    Okay, the trailer is going to the campground about 100km East of Vancouver, where I'll be staying for four days. But it'll be the first "more than 70% used" tow with it. It's a 2018 NüCamp T@B 400. Bought it last week, drove 150 miles home with it, using only about 70% to get it home. It...

    Trip Around the US' Left Ear - almost made it on one charge.

    Took a 3-day-weekend short trip up to Washington State's Olympic Peninsula. Photo above is from a spit of land that acts as a seawall to protect the Port of Port Angeles, Washington from the ocean (or the Straight of Juan de Fuca specifically,) at left is Port Angeles Bay with mainland US...

    Do people really not know the R1T rear-center seat has a telescoping headrest?

    I just saw multiple owners claim on Reddit that their R1T doesn't have a headrest for the center-rear seat. Really? Does not everyone know there's a telescoping headrest there? Well, if you didn't - now you do!

    Saw a humorous badge on a "competitor" that feels appropriate.

    Was driving behind a Range Rover. They have the vehicle name in all caps word mark across the back of the vehicle as individual letter emblems: R A N G E    R O V E R The G was missing. So it said something appropriate for an R1S to wear exploring Rivian's charging network: R A N    E    R...

    RAN Lincoln City shows live - *it isn’t yet*

    Decided to head to the coast this morning, saw in the Rivian app that it showed a new RAN at the Lincoln City outlet mall. Showed 3 stalls. Showed up in-vehicle navigation, too, so set it. Got here and there are 3 problems - 1. It directed me to enter the outlet mall parking lot in a...

    [Edmunds] 30,000 Pound Tow-Off Between Rivian R1T vs. Ford F-150 Lightning

    Edmunds went hog-wild and took both an F-150 Lightning and a Rivian R1T to a sled pull: 100% stock, didn't even air down the tires. Rivian outpulled the Lightning, but fell short of modified conventional pickups. I'm sure it wouldn't take much to beat them - the sled weighs ~34,000 pounds...

    Oregon SOLD! - R1T All-weather floor mats for sale - brand new, still in plastic (Portland, OR)

    Edit: Sold. Just in time for rainy season. ----- Apparently I am an idiot and ordered two sets. (One when ordering the vehicle, second set from the Gear Shop, forgetting I ordered with the vehicle.) They arrived one day after the other. Both sets are the new-style with black logo. Yours for...

    Old and New together.

    Parked (yes, badly 😆) to pick my wife up from physical therapy. This fumey boy pulled in next to me asking to take a picture of them together. So of course I got a pic, too.

    Officially unofficial update on LE orders w/ 20" wheels waiting in limbo. - EPA limits.

    I got my Guide contact and Shop access a month ago, and have seen almost no 20" wheel vehicles in the Shop, and my Guide hasn't had any info on when my build will happen. I'm waiting on a config that has shipped - LE in FG over FE, 20" AT-Bright, Underbody Shield. Guide is just "I won't know...
