    Anyone get their Tesla Adapter yet?

    I'd just like to say that I've never seen a company be so adept at announcing (and missing) ambiguous timelines in a way that causes constant confusion and debate around said announcements. Just look at us parsing every damn word of that tweet with an electron microscope. They even said "soon"...

    2024.03.02 Software Update: Quick Control Shortcuts, Improved Soft Sand Mode, New Ride Feel Setting, Etc.

    100% agree. came here to see if others were noticing it. I’ve always thought the R1T suspension made the weirdest clunks when hitting minor bumps in pavement. This seems very improved while also feeling less floaty in my opinion. This is all super subjective and tough to describe. But I...

    Watching the gear guard adventure really makes me want video entertainment options :cool:. Looked pretty good on that screen with sound coming from the Meridian system. I don't even care if they charge for it take my money!

    Rivian App updated version released for iOS and Android

    Whoa this is huge for Apple Watch users! You can access these shortcuts via Siri on the watch or add the shortcut's complication on the watch face. Cool! EDIT: Tested and it works!

    Rivian App updated version released for iOS and Android

    I was just playing with the new widget and thinking to myself how much more quickly the truck registered commands like climate activation and such. Before it could take 30 seconds to register the climate was indeed turned on. Small sample size at this point but but hopefully some improvements...

    20" Michelin Defender LTX Platinum Tires review -- For all of you thinking about a 20" tire! Your wait is over!

    Do you happen to have any miles on snow that you could comment on in terms of grip? I can guess that if the ltx has generally worse grip than the stock ATs, snow traction would also be worse. I am beginning to think a good cold climate combo is ltx platinum in warmer weather months...

    Michelin Defender LTX Platinum

    Any comments on snow performance on these vs the stock ATs? So far these seem to check all the boxes for looks, range, and (this is the big one for me) noise reduction. I find the stock ATs are fine for MN winters, hoping these have similar snow performance and don’t slide all over the place??

    20" Michelin Defender LTX Platinum Tires review -- For all of you thinking about a 20" tire! Your wait is over!

    Can anyone compare these to the snow performance of the stock AT tires? Any more efficiency data? I’d love a quieter option to the stock ATs that has similar looks, efficiency and snow performance. I won’t be crawling rocks anytime soon lol. The stock ATs seem to be quickly getting louder...

    2024.03 Software Update *BETA* (Quick Controls, Individual Passenger Window Locking, Ride Feel & Ride Height Improvements & More)

    I purchased a new Jeep shortly after taking delivery of the R1T in mid-2022. Said Jeep has received precisely zero software updates to their crappy, slow, buggy UConnect system since then. Zero! Yeah I’d like some more features in the R1 system, but its come really far and the truck gets...

    Is your experience with the Rivian GPS Nav as Bad as Mine has been?

    It generally looks nice and is intuitive to use. However as others have pointed out the routing is pretty unreliable, ESPECIALLY when considering real time traffic conditions. Its rerouting seems super random when it occurs and I never trust it. Overall it seems like they prioritized form...

    2023.46 Software Update Details (Highway Assist / Driver+ / Navigation & More...)

    I hope this means that the truck will map the Google-calculated route and not the Rivian/MapBox/Drunk Uncle calculated route. I doubt it but one can dream.

    Does "Towing Mode" reduce range unnecessarily?

    Seems like they could get you a better range estimate if you were able to input some info about whatever you are towing. Is it a camper or a boat or an open trailer? What is the Weight, height, width? it wouldn’t be too hard for them to maintain a database of towable‘s that you could select...

    OTA Coming: AC noise/vibration

    Had a service appointment for this a year ago. At the time, my tech said the noisy, unbalanced, weed-wacker-sounding piece of junk that they use for an AC compressor was "within spec". Maybe they are finally coming to their senses. Hopefully they aren't just saying what you want to hear...

    Software Update 2023.22.00 looks like it's coming...

    feature request: Driver alert when being passed on the right by 10 consecutive vehicles. 5 if they are flipping the bird at me in the passenger seat 😂

    What do you want addressed in the next OTA update?

    SMS / Text message integration. Not asking for Carplay here but I think Carplay does this well. Notifies of new messages, reads them to you, allows you to respond via voice. Turn on camera when pulling forward into a parking spot, or give me a quick way to activate. I end up fumbling thru...

    Rivian executive acknowledges R1S AC noise problem

    Its more than 2-3. I've had my R1T since May 2022. Reported "Weed Eater Mode" to Service a month later, and was told my issue was normal. It has gotten better with software updates, where I suspect Rivian is throttling the compressor via software in order to help minimize the brutal sound it...

    I thought EV's were supposed to be quite. @RJ ARE YOU HEARING THIS ****??? This car sounds like its gonna hit Mach 9 when you switch on the AC

    Mine sounds like this on hot days. I put in a ticket. Mobile service came out, looked / listened for 30 seconds, and said its "within spec". "This is normal." "Nothing to see here." I was like "WHAT I CANT HEAR YOU OVER THE LEAF BLOWER....SAY AGAIN??!?!?".. Tech Responded "YEAH LIKE I...
