  1. Traded in my R1T for an F150 Lightning

    tldr; Both are awesome trucks. If you don't need the extra cabin space, R1T is the better truck. After having another child a few months ago, it became pretty apparent that the back seat of the R1T was not sufficient for our family anymore. With the newest discounts for the F150 Lightning...
  2. Can Guides still make changes after you lock in your configuration?

    I locked in an R1S and December and want to change it to Standard+ battery and change the color. I emailed my guide (who is now different than the guide I had when I got my R1T) and he basically said I can use the R1S shop to change my configuration. Problem is they don't have any Standard+ dual...
  3. Does the R1T have rear seat belt sensors?

    My daughter is in a booster seat and as I backed out of the driveway she told me she wasn't buckled in. My previous vehicles would warn me about this but my R1T didn't have any alerts. Do I have a broken sensor or does the R1T not have this feature?
  4. Does getting purchasing and delivery information emails mean anything anymore?

    I reserved R1S Nov 8, configured last week, and I've been getting emails about the purchase process. Back when I was waiting for my R1T last year, that meant you were close to delivery. Is this still the case or do they just send these out when you configure your vehicle now?
  5. R1S demand slowing down?

    I'm considering trading in my R1T for an R1S, and placed an R1S reservation on Nov 8, 2023. Today I checked my account and I have the ability to configure. Really surprised I was able to configure so quickly. I wonder if the demand is slowing, or they are just trying to match existing vehicles...
  6. Anyone trade in R1T for R1S and regret it?

    My family has grown, and the backseat of the R1T is just not big enough right now to have a car seat, a booster seat, and an adult sitting comfortably in the back. I've put down a deposit for an R1S, but am also considering an F150 Lightning. I don't have much truck stuff to do in the winter...
  7. Has anyone traded in an R1T for an R1S?

    Just curious what trade in value Rivian is giving for R1Ts.
  8. Another Drive Cam vs aftermarket Garmin dash cam comparison, this time with rain

    So decided to test the drive cam today compared to my Garmin dash cam (https://www.amazon.com/Garmin-140-degree-Detection-Recording-Signature/dp/B09FWH6CQK/ref=sr_1_4?crid=1ZJ7HS6V8JNX1) TLDR; Rivian drive cam has terrible quality I pulled into a starbucks off the freeway for this shot. Good...
  9. Grinding noise when fans start up

    I noticed this week that when I unlock the truck, there is what sounds like a grinding noise right when the fans start to spin up. As far as I can tell the fans are working fine and I've had no trouble driving the truck. Will probably do a video later this week and send in a service request, but...
  10. My floor mats finally shipped

    Got the email this morning with a tracking number saying the floor mats have shipped. Supposed to get them today apparently. Update 1: Just received them. Have a few afternoon meetings and then I'll install them in the truck. Confirmed these are the new ones without the yellow highlights...
  11. Mobile service review

    tldr; They didn't show up Got a call 3 weeks ago that my spare tire was in. They scheduled a service appointment for today to install the spare tire and to reprogram the Rivian so I can actually use the card keys they gave me. Appointment window came and went, and nothing. Called the service...
  12. My 1000 mile, almost 4 week review

    TLDR; Usually only drive 7k miles a year. Did 1k miles in less than 4 weeks. Great truck. Driving: 9/10 Overall the R1T is very fun and easy to drive. Transitioning from my Model Y to the R1T was pretty easy. I started with standard regeneration and now I drive with high regeneration...
  13. Is there a way to file a bug without requesting service?

    So I noticed the R1T doesn't connect to hidden wifi networks after you leave your house and come back. Not really something I need service to take care of, but it is a bug that would require an OTA update most likely. Is there a way to tell Rivian about this?
  14. Decided to give the nearby EA station a go. Everything went fine.

    My R1T was down to 34%, so decided to give DC fast charging a shot to see what my results would be. There is a new EA station that was put up near me, only 150 kw stations though. One thing to note is that the Rivian navigation does not have it listed, even though its been operational for about...
  15. If you traded in with a lien, how long did it take Rivian to pay it off?

    I noticed they still haven't paid off the loan I had on my Model Y. Its been 10 days now since I traded it in.
  16. Test drove F150 Lariat Lightning ER today, my thoughts

    Most noticeable difference for me was how quiet it was. I thought the R1T was quiet compared to the Model Y, but the F150 is even quieter. I loved the amount of storage up front. Huge center console, 2 glove boxes, 4 cup holders on the center console. I didn't go on the freeway, nor did I test...
  17. Are the ventilated seats wimpy or is it just my truck?

    With the ventilated seats on full, I barely feel the air. Just curious if this is just how it works or if my truck has a problem. Only comparison I have is F150 which you can really feel.
  18. Coolers that fit in the frunk?

    So I had a Coleman 48 Can Party Stacker Cooler that I kept under the floor of the Model Y trunk, but its too wide to fit in the frunk due to how the frunk is shaped at the bottom. Has anyone found any cooler that fit well in the frunk?
  19. So far pretty disappointed in service

    I have 1 minor issue right now. They gave me the wrong key cards at delivery. Didn't realize it until I got home and tried them out. Submitted a ticket the same day and informed my guide, who said he would contact the service center to escalate. 1 day went by, called the service advisor number...
  20. Truck not reconnecting to home wifi

    Just curious if anyone has seen this before. It works fine if I enter the detail. If I drive away, or the truck goes to sleep, it will not connect again. I see the ssid in the saved wifi section, and if I enter the details again it connects just fine.
