This is coming from a self-proclaimed passionate car guy, who’s owned a few fast cars and driven everything in between, I really like Rivian. I’m on my second Rivian and looking forward to the R2 and R3 ownership in the future… and for some strange reason all other cars are fading in the...

Maybe an electric version of the mavericks and Santa Cruz could sway some big city folk.

It’s not the third brake light since the other brake lights aren’t on at the moment. So most likely the whole top bar will illuminate when the brakes come on.

These two sentiments and definitely co-exist. I felt that way about my manual 2013 Audi S4. The most satisfying car to drive and have but broke my heart and wallet every month with repairs. I miss that nightmare.

Someone needs to make Rivian steel numbers ASAP!!

I use this Alpicool 40 liter fridge. Not fancy or robust but has never failed and it’s the smallest foot print fridge with the largest capacity that fits right under my tonneau cover. Alpicool C40 Portable Refrigerator, 12 Volt Car Freezer, 42 Quart(40 Liter) Fast Cooling 12V Fridge Cooler...

…”pay twice?” That really hurts to think of. Makes me miss the days before streaming music. Bluetooth with Rivian is not a good option since you can’t search your library on the Rivian screen.

Welcome to the club! Had an early build R1T and it wasn’t cosmetically flawed much at all but it wasn’t mechanically refined. Have the R1S now and it’s more mechanically refined but more cosmetically flawed. It’s like they were a less experienced car maker but took their time in the beginning...

Short And: Nope! Long Ans: Heeck no! I’m too young to drive slow! My pride won’t let me. It’s a sad day when all the big rigs in AZ are passing my 835 HP truck. If I had to drive that slow for road trips I’d just drive som’n else more simple. Real Ans: I always carry many things outside the...

These days I only want to use RAN chargers on road trips. I have 20” ATs. Getting anything over 300 miles with these tires would be a win (I want/need these tires) . I get ~230 miles. Paying 10k, you pay it and deal with it, but constantly wanting just 20-50 more miles per charge/trip is stressful.

I think max pack makes more sense and a bigger difference for 20” all terrain tires. I get around 220-250 miles, on a full charge, on road trips with all overland gear hanging off. So there are times an extra 30-50 miles of range would have definitely saved us. If I got anything over 300 miles...

I don’t see how it gives good access to the cargo room…does it swing out or down to get access to it?

Yup! It’s even more annoying off-road. Service cancelled my appointment saying they can’t fix it at the moment and they are aware it’s a software issue they hope to sort out.

Yup! That’s Costa Mesa for ya. I felt like I bought a used car. Wait till you have to get service.

Hopefully in future Rivian should make a taller removable set of crossbars as an option. I love that it’s easily removable with my tent still attached, but I wish it didn’t block the rear window and third brake light when I have a tent on there. Plus easier access to the bed and spare would be a...

Has anyone tried to remove the spare tire with the crossbars on truck bed? I tried for a little bit and was not able to. Am I missing a step? If you have a roof top tent mounted and you need the spare when off-roading are you just outta luck?!

Well I’ve been waiting for these to come out for the R1S. It would be ideal for when we sleep in the R1S we can crack the windows without rain/dew falling inside. I also have a hunch it will help with the wind noise when we crack the window for driving. Also for just cracking the window when...

Good to know! Thanks for the tip!

Yup! Seat memory is wonky at times. Sometimes it has me driving like a gansta since it didn’t restore after entry/exit mode.
