  1. would you buy R1T again as of 3/25/2024?

    I would. Later builds are likely a little tighter than my early build. Wind noise is my only complaint. If getting quick maintenance work done was important though, hard no. I haven't had to do anything critical but the 3 minor cosmetic issues I've had them look at has taken 1-3 months to get...
  2. R3X Reveal Shocks Even More!!! 🤯

    My partner and I are so hyped for the R3X holy shit
  3. Aluminum Key Fobs, Aluminum iPad Holders, Key Stickers Oh My!

    I guess I'm in the minority that like the idea of a carabiner key - I just wish the Rivian implementation had a screwgate or some other locking mechanism so that it was actually usable
  4. Lapped the Olympic Peninsula today with R1S

    I had no idea the Forks supercharger is open for non-Teslas - I just checked the Tesla app and it shows up! The only one in the region 😆
  5. KO3 tires installed on Rivian R1T!

    I'll keep this post in mind when my tread wears. If you've seen a red R1T in west seattle, that's probably me ;) I've seen a good number of trucks here lately
  6. Lightning is a Better Road Tripper than our Rivian R1T

    Do you use the Rivian nav to route to the next charger? Battery preconditioning kicks in 30-60 minutes before arrival and I usually immediately get 200+ kw seconds after plugging in. Makes a big difference.
  7. Felt weird going for inspection.

    I got hit by that clown when I lived in Texas - he also didn't have insurance. Those a$$clowns don't care about following the rules 🤷‍♂️
  8. The Competition: 2024 Silverado EV Reviews Are Here

    At 200kW, it would take almost 24 hours to charge at home on a 40A circuit, sheesh
  9. Dear Shareholders, From RJ (2023 Annual Shareholder Meeting) + Peek at R2 Model

    Every time I see a Chevy Avalanche, my brain pauses for a few seconds trying to understand "why"
  10. Current Rivian owners - What’s one change that would make you happier?

    Sometimes it takes 5-10 seconds from the time I press the keyfob till the vehicle unlocks. I'm standing there like an idiot next to it, girlfriend holding grocery bags on the other side, waiting for the car to unlock. I thought keyfob unlocking a car was a solved problem, but it seems like...
  11. Impact of leaving a R1T at home without using it?

    Back of napkin math estimates if Rivian has 20,000 cars produced consuming 1 kwh/day just to exist, that's about the same CO2 emissions as putting 3-500ish gas cars on the road (counter to their ethos). I still don't understand why a sleeping car needs so much more power than a phone just for...
  12. For those who got R1S (or R1T) at original approximately $78k would you buy one for new price of approximately $93k?

    I would have switched to a dual motor, lower specced version (that still includes nearly all the useful features) to hit the 70-80k mark
  13. R1T Rollover Flipped!

    I had the same thing happen with my Ducati. It just flipped for no reason
  14. Battery Vampire Drain Test for R1T: 10 days parked unplugged = 1.2% per day loss.

    Interesting, calculates to about 65 watts to maintain standby. I'm really curious what the car is doing to require what's basically a laptop running full-time. I know there are various sensors and low-power radios running but these generally don't require a whole lot of energy
  15. Tow Test - Rivian R1T & nuCamp TAB 320 S Boondock Teardrop Trailer

    OR EVEN BIGGER... https://bowlus.com/volterra/
  16. Gift from Rivian?

    They sent me a second set of crossbars but ... uh I don't think that was intended as a gift
  17. Anyone else not like Rivian's sounds?

    I prefer the Rivian pedestrian sound 1000x to Tesla. From my inside my bedroom I hear my neighbor's Tesla every morning - the hovercar sounding whir. Maybe it's cute the first time you notice it but not the thousandth time, it's just stupid. In comparison, I like the nothingness sound of the...
  18. If you could be on the CCS or Super Charger network moving forward, which would you choose?

    whichever one codifies a decent communication protocol standard first. this is necessary for wide-spread installation of utility-owned chargers in cities
  19. Screen Protectors For Rivian Display

    I ordered these a few weeks ago (thanks AO for the additional help you provided too) and can attest they are pretty incredible. I really prefer the matte screen and the dramatic reduction in fingerprints
