    R2 Price, Specs, Dimensions leaked!! $47500, 0-60 3 sec, 330 miles range

    Almost exactly the same size as a BMW X3, which is about perfect IMO.

    Aftermarket adapter to hookup to Tesla superchargers on the road

    Rivian is supposed to be shipping these adapters to owners (for free) once the full Tesla network opens up.

    Daily charging reminder

    ā€œHey Siri, remind me ever night at 10pm to plug in the truckā€

    Backup camera glitching every morning

    Mine does this too, and the timing seems to coincide with hitting the garage close button on the steering wheel. Itā€™s almost as though processing the garage request slows down the camera processing.

    Gauge view and front motor bias

    Were you sliding straight ahead? If so, you can thank the benefits of front biased braking/regen which induces understeer and keeps you going straight. This is how OEMs design cars - they want to keep you pointed straight. If it was rear biased, youā€™d likely start going sideways or backwards...

    Dog seat cover with underseat access?

    I have the hammock style which allows access to the under seat storage (just lift up the hammock). Edit added link: I got the standard size. Lassie Dog Car Seat Covers for Back Seat Waterproof with Mesh Visual Window Durable Scratchproof Nonslip Dog Car Hammock with Universal Size Fits for...

    Gaithersburg, MD Service Center Officially Open!

    Mine sat for 14+ days before service started and by the time I get it back it (next week hopefully) it will be over 21 days. If itā€™s not critical, I would wait.

    Validate my justification to convince wife

    If I had all of the money back that Iā€™ve spent on cars over the yearsā€¦ ā€¦I would probably buy more cars.

    Effects of too large of a roof box? Going camping, need storage! (PHOTOS of box install added!)

    Thanks for sharing. I thought a 7ā€™ foot box would be way too big on an R1T, but that looks great. Very helpful for my future buying decisions. šŸ‘

    Rivian Insurance - value of Fast Tracked Access

    Rivian insurance (Nationwide) provides glass replacement with $0 deductible. Probably worth it given the number of windshield replacement stories posted here.

    Safety issue: tailgate top molding fall apart too easy.

    Sorry to hear you got hurt. Definitely not the easiest truck bed to get into. I usually enter from the side by stepping on the tire and swinging my leg over.

    MidnightRivian goes on midnight cruise to try out Tidal Connect and Bed Brakes (Instructions)

    +1 for Tidal sounding great on Meridian Also, +1 for bedding. I found my R1T brakes are much more response after a good bedding. 99% of trips I donā€™t even touch the brake pedal in high regen, so Iā€™ll smash the pedal (never coming to a full stop of course) every once in a while to ensure a...

    Front End Wrap Cost?

    Sounds about right. Had a local installer (Maryland) do a full front wrap with xpel Ultimate for $2k. Benefit of a (good) pro is that they should prep the paint to remove imperfections from the factory before applying the film. Wrapped edges will look much better in the long run especially on...

    Northern MD (harford country) tire rotations

    Thatā€™s nice to know. Which Firestone location? Iā€™m in Towson but will happily drive to Harford County for good service and price.

    Yellow logo floor mats not available for purchase from gear shop

    +1 on the 3Ds. They look more factory than the factory. And way better coverage.

    Loud drivetrain between acceleration and regen

    Yes - they replaced the front drive unit. Much quieter now. However, I do have a subtle but constant hum at highway speeds (70-75 mph). Not too worried about it but will have them look at next SC visit.

    2023.14.0 Software update released

    If the system automatically records ā€œ15 seconds of pre incident footageā€ that leads me to believe itā€™s constantly recording (then re-writing) short clips no matter what you select. Otherwise how would it have the 15 seconds before the incident?

    Beware of rumble noise. Could be front drive unit issue like mine

    Yes thatā€™s very similar to the sound mine was making. Primarily around 20-30 mph and not applying much throttle or regen (slack drivetrain). They will likely recommend a new drive unit.
