  1. Touchup paint for 22" bright wheels

    I’ve used this. Not perfect but would probably be good for that scratch. Make sure u use the fine pen tip and not the brush for that scratch SYOAUTO Gloss Black Rim Touch Up Paint, Car Wheel Scratch Repair Touch Up Paint Pen, Universal Color Black Wheel Paint (Gloss Black) https://a.co/d/dIUKrjm

    This note is the key. You have to press the setting button every new fill. Even if to go up 1 psi and back down to original.
  3. Tesla refusing to buy back Cybertruck or allowing buyer to sell elsewhere

    How can you buy something you aren't allowed to sell. Do you really "own" it then?
  4. R3X Reveal Shocks Even More!!! 🤯

    Does anyone remember the old Volkswagen Sciroccos?
  5. Only Rivian Specific Camp Kitchens on the market -- Thunderbolt Camp Kitchen

    I love these products. I have a black R1T and would consider the shou sugi ban version but don't see any pictures of that finish on the site?
  6. DIY mod - Adding hidden tailgate step ladder on R1T

    The gear tunnel doors can be used as a step into the bed as well - they hold 250 lbs.
  7. Software Update 2023.50 -- Scheduled battery preconditioning & other useful improvements!

    Still waiting for the ability to swap my winter and summer tires without scheduling a service and paying $100+ and half day of my time for "calibration"
  8. Nav Map Townships

    I'm no software engineer but would seem odd that Mapbox would have omitted all the city and town names in Illinois in their database. Seems more likely to me that Rivian software is pulling from the incorrect data group or column in the MapBox database but who knows. Does this happen in NC...
  9. Comparing consumption: Jeep Wrangler vs. Rivian R1T

    This is Chicago on a hot day mid July. My Rivian charges from 10p-3a and my wife's Tesla charges from 3a-6a.
  10. No OTA for tire size changes

    Has the consensus been that doing so only slightly impacts odometer/range accuracy? Driving performance is unaffected?
  11. No OTA for tire size changes

    I also would like to change down to my 20in wheels for the Chicago winter (from 22). The CS rep said no mobile service appointments in Chicago any time soon and that he would look into allowing an OTA update after i did the swap myself. As already reported here he came back said no-go - that's...
  12. Dead pedal factory protective plastic -- how to completely remove?

    Thanks for the input. Here's what I used. Steamer and trim tool to remove plastic. Mild citrus type Goo Gone for remaining glue. I avoided the stronger solvent based adhesive removers (like Goof Off in a metal can) for fear of discoloring the plastic.
  13. Cloudy backup camera

    I’m the original poster. I’ve had 2 cameras replaced now for water in the lens. It took longer than expected for both because water traveled up and rusted the wiring harness. I asked them if there was a lack of sealant somewhere and they said no just bad batches of cameras.
  14. Dead pedal factory protective plastic -- how to completely remove?

    The dead pedal on my R1T shipped with tons of fragments of protective plastic that are very difficult to remove - thin plastic and lots of adhesive. The delivery team obviously couldn’t get it off either. This has been there for 20,000 miles and I just got around to the milder goo gone and a...
  15. Nav Map Townships

    In Illinois no one ever refers to what township they are in. Multiple towns and cities are in each township. When I search for things like a post office, it tells me the township, but not the town or city. This is odd. I have never seen this in an online map. In the above mentioned search...
  16. Rock stuck under auto tonneau cover cap

    For those that encounter this maybe this will help. There's enough flex in the cap for it to get in there so theres enough to get it out.
  17. Rock stuck under auto tonneau cover cap

    Maybe I need to remove the entire trim cap on one side of the bed to get to one side of fasteners to raise up the cover enough?
  18. Rock stuck under auto tonneau cover cap

    So far my auto cover has worked ok. But now there is a rock stuck under it that creates a new scratch the length of the cover every time i open it. I haven't been able to find any threads or videos on opening up the cap. Just pry? Are there fasteners?
  19. Towing a 7,000lb travel trailer for 500 miles with R1T

    Nice write-up. Was there a primary charging provider that you utilized in that part of the country? EA? Chargepoint? What kind of charging rates were you finding? Hopefully in the 150 + range - I imagine any 50KW chargers would be painful having to stop that frequently..
  20. I towed a car trailer over 1800 miles with my R1T

    Thanks for this informative post. Can you comment on the tongue weight? I realize moving the position of the car changes the tongue weight, but how did you determine the ideal weight? The maximum tongue weight for the truck? Or were you somehow able to determine that the weight of the car...
