    Neener, Neener, Neener... Windshield Washer Fluid by Genuine Chemistry

    If I diluted mine example, it would be in the same ballpark. I was reacting to the shipping cost relative to the product as FrankieJ reported above. Since I'm old and my olfactory sense is waning, the esthetic experience is not a factor. I just want it to do its job in the conditions I drive...

    Reverse and Drive are backwards.....

    Here's the big picture explanation from Smarter Every Day: The Backwards Brain Bicycle It's about 8 minutes long, and watch it to the end, I think you won't regret it.

    Gear Shop Ordering Problem (rare); PSA

    Thanks for elaborating much of what I left out. The frustration of no one knowing what was amiss and not pursuing a solution is maddening. I certainly hope someone from Rivian reads, understands, and takes action on this. That would be a true sign of customer service.

    Gear Shop Ordering Problem (rare); PSA

    Preemptive apologies , this may be TL;DR. Perhaps someone may benefit from my frustrating experience. A proactive fix to this particular problem is quite simple. I recently made an order through the Gear Shop. At check out I got an error message to the effect "Incorrect address...correct...

    Frunk Water Tank (Rivian-Aftermarket / Boxgods) and Custom 12v installed

    FWIW, to remove the plastic odor/taste in my "WOOTER", I searched extensively through various "recipes". What worked for me was this: 1. Rinse once with tap water. (maybe not necessary depending on your local water). 2. 1 cup white vinegar + 1 T. bleach + smidgen of Dawn. 3. Shake a few times...

    Literally the best vehicle I’ve ever owned.

    100% agree, best vehicle in 55years of driving. Pics of camp set up in central OR this weekend: RTT w/ awning, 270 Overland awning, & NEW "WOOTER" (not visible in frunk).

    I saw it, too.

    Too complex to use while driving, or parking.

    To quote Blake (from the 18 century!): "If the doors of perception were cleansed every thing would appear to man as it is, Infinite. For man has closed himself up, till he sees all things thro' narrow chinks of his cavern." I am so grateful to the participants of this forum (and this thread in...

    Paintless dent repair - Gotta give props to Todd @ TAPS PDR - Portland, OR

    When I had mine done, they related another Rivian job involving a tailgate and that it was quite an ordeal. Part of their problem was getting good info about the manufacture of the truck.

    Paintless dent repair - Gotta give props to Todd @ TAPS PDR - Portland, OR

    In Bend we have a "mom & pop" paintless dent shop, The Green UnDent Company (Tom & Chandra) that does a great job, too. I sent photos and they texted me with appointment times, came and got the truck (they also do remote work), and delivered the finished product within hours. Chandra took my LG...

    Anyone racking Fat Tire E-bikes with their Rivian?

    About 7 years ago I got the Hollywood rack for my truck when I retired and took to the road RVing for a year. Here's another link: https://hollywoodracks.com/collections/bike-rack-hitch/products/rv-rider This rack is a solid brute and I've acquired accessories to expand it to 4 bikes (not...

    iKamper Annex room tent - tested and recommended

    In Oregon, accessible dispersed camping (FS and BLM land) is very common. To go and set up camp in one spot and for days you could not ride the same mountain bike trail twice. Not to mention hiking, climbing, fishing, SUP... the list goes on. One could camp (primitive) for 14 days, no fees...

    iKamper Annex room tent - tested and recommended

    This thread motivated me to set up my annex today, as a dry run. First I highly recommend a ground cloth. I have a 10X10 CGear, sand-free multimat, which is excellent. Keeps the annex clean as well at preventing tracking into the tent itself. It aids in packing everything away, too...

    Official Rivian Bike Pad for R1T Tailgate - First Look! 🚴‍♀️ (updated w/ photos in use)

    Weighing in with my thoughts about the tailgate pad. First, I like it. I can see a few design tweaks that might help, with the straps. Unfortunately for me, it arrived a year late. I got and modified my own last year, right after I took delivery. I mountain bike several times a week, so...

    Removable Speaker - Genius!

    Speaking of camp speaker... Mine is no longer "removable". At Bend's Earth Day event, I opened my R1T for public display and in the course of the day found that my speaker was locked in place. The group of Rivian owners present tried to no avail to free it. We called Customer Service (group...
