Guys, make sure you get safety glass replacement coverage on yr policy! I'm also paying $2k for replacement with full reimbursement, some states require it as policy rider. Would avoid safelite since they have no track record with Rivians, I'm using Rivian certified repair firm--but check their...

There are a couple posts on set of tools that can be stored in the hitch on the site that assist access to manual lever to frunk. PITA but solvable for $40.

Motortrend justifiably ridicules Cybertruck. Guess it's cool if you don't need to drive it. https://www.motortrend.com/reviews/2024-tesla-cybertruck-dual-motor-foundation-series-first-test-review/?inf_contact_key=5b97aaac070c910f534c2bb7c4d8682d680f8914173f9191b1c0223e68310bb1

Software content in vehicles will continue to increase and become even more of a differentiator. I'm old enough to remember that IBM gave up ownership of the software stack in their first PC to tiny Microsoft since they thought the margins were in hardware. We know how that turned out. Farley at...

From what I've read Apple does charge a license fee albeit small "currently", but strategically that allows them under the hood and potential exert more control later. But again, main point is Rivian's stack needs comparison to cohort in Detroit.

After long career in the software biz I gotta believe a significant value add and possible barrier for other competitors is Rivian's software architecture. It ain't perfect but its still pretty awesome. Despite the whining about no carplay it's pretty sophisticated. The OTA strategy is great and...

Great set-up! I’ve got a GFC super lite ready to roll in the spring. That fairing looks sweet, what is the base material and approx. cost?

Very nice with matching ply of yr FIY tonneau cover!

Nice but roof track level version is $1K more than Range one

Though if not at same height they won’t accommodate long RTTs like GFC, nor allow carry of lengthy items like ladders or kayaks. I got the Range Industries one instead.

Solar panels above the cave

R1T for 2 months, love it. What is tock? Not one problem (yet) 😊

Well said. There ought to be a way. Not sure if possible without change to the mechanicals..

The OP bought a Rivian to save money on travel costs. Huh? Would doubt that’s a motivation for many of us buyers. Though going all electric and investing in PV with net metering on my roof I can cover 100% of my energy needs even here in Maine! With no bill.

I take issue with Kyle's 22 mile more for the Max, due to his constant 70 mph in winter conditions. Here in Maine with a mix of highway and around town I'm getting north of 2.5kWh on gauge with temps between 20-40. Equates to 355+ mile range with max battery. Dk, but wonder if 22 mile diff...

Shawn, do the wheels have the Rivian pressure sensors?

Willing to sell one and ship?

Some great advice & info here. I also have a RTT (GFC Ultra). Can you provide a link to the fairing you purchased?

Pretty informative video for first time EV owners abt cold weather effects on battery. Might want to watch at double speed given length

Owned my dual motor max for a month and problem free, other than dearth of charging options here in Maine. Best vehicle I've ever owned--so far 😊
