    Semi-permanent fridge in the cargo area?

    Hey all! Iā€™m looking forward to getting my R1S in a few weeks. In my R1T, I would always keep a small fridge in my frunk (This ICECO). Super handy to have some cool water and snacks on hand. I know the newer vehicles donā€™t have frunk power, but Iā€˜m thinking I can have it tucked to the side...

    Feedback from folks who went from R1T > R1S

    Hey all! I sold my R1T a few months ago-- the range just wasn't what I needed for off-road adventure, and so I put my R1T proceeds into my Land Cruiser, which is awesome now. But, I miss the Rivian for daily driving, and I'm thinking about buying an R1S. I know the early reviews said that the...

    Feature Request: Suitcase Nuke

    Hear me outā€¦ what if we could give up half of our gear tunnel space for a small nuclear reactor that would keep the battery full all of the time and provide us with unlimited range? I would definitely pay a pretty penny for that upgrade!

    Initial Poll: Any interest in a SW Colorado off-road rally in Summer ‘24?

    The San Juan mountains are regarded as some of the most scenic off-road trails in the world, and many other groups do rallies/meetups (Jeeps, Land Cruisers). Would there be any interest in a Rivian meetup? We could integrate charging stops into the plans (there are DCFC at Purgatory, Ouray and...

    Experience after driving a Model X with FSD

    Iā€™m in ATX this weekend and rented a 2021 MX P100D with FSD Beta on Turo. I had autopilot on my ā€˜15 Model S (which still had radar in addition to cameras) and we subscribed to FSD for a month last summer on my wifeā€™s ā€˜21 Model Y. A few impressions: I canā€™t believe that FSD is publicly...

    Automatic Tonneau Cover Retrofit Fix Update...

    I had mobile service this morning to replace my frunk lid trim, and asked our New Mexico mobile tech about the tonneau covers. (Thanks, Alex!) Here's what he told me: He expects the retrofits to be at the service centers by the end of the month. (I'm guessing that he meant September, I didn't...

    Camping (gear and range) Review in my R1T

    See details on my build in this thread We took a short trip up into the San Juans last weekend to test out the latest iteration of our camping set up on the R1T. The goal was to comfortably transport and house 4 people (2 big, 2 little) in the backcountry, and use electricity as the fuel for...

    Frunk lid organizer-- how to mount?

    I have an extra Roam lid organizer (this one) and realized it would be a perfect fit for the frunk lid. Now, the question is... how to mount it? Has anyone removed the frunk lid cover? Any photos? Super excited for how convenient this is going to be...

    Why are EA 350kw chargers so much slower than 150kws on our trucks?

    I know this is pretty common knowledge, but Iā€™m not sure of why. Anybody care to educate me? Maybe a video idea for @OutofSpecKyle ?

    Completed so far: Tires: KO2s Racks: Overland Ruff Rax Tent: iKamper Mini Awning: 23zero 270-- note that the brackets it came with don't go quite high enough, and it rubs on the back door. I have aftermarket brackets on the way that should get it at least an inch higher. In bed: Builtright...

    YOHB? Silver Rivian in Terlingua, TX

    Spotted this LA Silver beauty on my annual trip to Big Bend today. Iā€™ve been thinking about bringing my Rivian down, but the charging is very sparse down here, so stuck with the Land Cruiser for this yearā€” if the owner of this R1T is on here, Iā€™d love to hear more about your experience!

    My Driver+ wish list

    Driver+ has gotten SO much better in the 8 months Iā€™ve had my truck. Iā€™m left with a few desires that would make me totally content, in order of priority (to me) Lane changes. Let me signal, then change lanes for me and stay engaged. Raise speed cap to at least 90, preferably 95 Automatic...

    Poll: Does your tonneau cover work?

    Just curious where people areā€” mine was noisy for a few weeks, then finally gave up last time I used it, wedged at an angle, and is done. Service told me that theyā€™re testing a redesigned cover and a recall is likely, but they wonā€™t do anything for me until itā€™s availableā€¦
