I'm glad that that's the case, because it makes a whole lot of sense. But why are so many people here advocating for less choice and functionality when there's less overall benefit the consumer? The people saying they're glad there's not the option are advocating for less choice, which is mind...

I get very close to the EPA range on my Lightning in city driving, in a hot climate and have literally never used OPD. The idea that regen makes a significant difference in range makes absolutely no sense with my averages.

The sad thing is here that I think the halo wheels have the potential to be the gigantic headlining feature of the car, like how Apple trackpads are the headlining feature in MacBooks, but since their software department is unable to iterate on the software at an acceptable rate, it's going to...

But it was. I bought a ScreenMate and I plan to install it day 1

no, compared to other automotive software, Rivian is way better than legacy automotive. Barring the Chinese cars, infotainment as I've experienced them has been Tesla > Polestar > Volvo > Rivian > everyone else

I'll put it in the OP, but I'm getting a Model Y and putting a ScreenMate in it (it's a whole android tablet computer than man-in-the-middle connects with the car CPU). I just can't justify waiting another 6 months or so for an EVPlay to eventually come out for the R2. I'm glad I test drove the...

Which is precisely why people need to bitch and moan about how important CarPlay is, as much as possible.

I get the feeling that this forum has a high propensity of middle aged people who are searching for a religion in Rivian lol. The fact that so many of you don’t want an editorial detailing objective opinions and truths is absolutely wild; ESPECIALLY considering that if the R2 fails to sell to...

Here are the questions I asked the salesperson: can I purchase a set of 19" wheels from you? how do I engage auto park? where is Rivian assistant? how do I initiate a lane change via Autonomy+? what are your financing options going to look like? which software features are included for free...

That’s the whole point of this editorial board. The opposite being that all everyone does is praise it I have a software project I work on; I read forums/Reddit all the time to get ideas for improvement. I love hearing candid opinions; it makes the software better.

Originally I was going to hardwire an iPad in front of the center display, but EVPlay/Screenmate solved that issue.

https://screenmate.co/pages/screenmate This module gives a whole Android tablet hook-in on the center display. EVPlay does the same for Rivian to be fair. https://evplay.io/

I lemon lawed it. I get my money back in about a month.

I took a test drive in a Model Y for the first time yesterday, and it ticks enough of the boxes from above that I'm going to be mostly satisfied with it. I just wish it had a better tow rating.

Having under 330 miles of range is a hard dealbreaker. The software in Subarus/Toyotas is another dealbreaker. It's as slow, clunky, and stuttery as a flip phone UI.

I'm going to make this post a list of all the things that led to my decision to cancel my pre-order. Hopefully this information will be read by someone who can use the information to make a better product in the future! My whole investigation into the Rivian software/hardware has essentially...

I think the main difference here is whether the hotel in question is a resort or a place to sleep for the night. I never drive to resort style hotels, because I want to travel to and enjoy a place and not spend my whole time at a resort. I can see the situation that you’re talking about being...

It depends on how you write the software. Many, many software stacks are written in procedural programming whereby your code is a long list of if/then statements, where any time you add a new parameter, you have to audit your entire stack to make simple changes (because all the code depends on...

The destination chargers The destination chargers I've used at hotels have a software feature where charging above 90% slows to a crawl so you're not charged for idling overnight. I highly doubt that this is a standard feature, but I did find it to be less bad than having to worry about not...
