    Rooftop Tent for R1S - considering an iKamper Skycamp 3.0

    Its a great idea, but personally my dogs have always slept with us in our bed so I'd feel bad making them sleep "alone" in the car. Not to say you're a bad person if you do, but my dogs are just needy 😅. Furthermore I'd be concerned with climate control in the car. Sure you can leave camping...

    Rooftop Tent for R1S - considering an iKamper Skycamp 3.0

    I have the ikamper xcover 2.0 on my R1S. A little lighter than the skycamp but footprint is pretty similar. I feel it's a very premium RTT. I fit 2 adults, 2 kids, and 2 dogs (1 15lb spaniel, and a 65lb labrador) with room to spare. Honestly my favorite feature is ikamper's ability to blackout...

    Tesla saves Rivian - Mammoth Mountain Edition

    Myself and probably majority of the forum members here go on 'Adventure' just fine without a Tesla adapter in hand. But sure, must be a manufacturer's problem.... 🤷‍♂️

    35" Yokohama Geolandar M/T G003 on 20" Atomic Wheels on R1S

    I actually never knew tire sizes came in inches like that. But good to know a 290 series tire (metric) would fit the R1's. I am pretty surprised there isn't more of a poke at that size.

    R1T HV battery replacement after 25,000 miles

    Guess I'll be taking my R1S in for an "alignment" at 7.9year or 149k mile mark and see what they find

    5,000 mile tire rotation: how-to DIY tips

    Very true, considering the last few visits to Discount Tire took me no less than 4 hours in wait time, an extra $15 sounds pretty good to me!

    Solar Panel for Overlanding

    I know there are plenty of benefits to using the portable battery, but is there a primary reason as to why the vehicle 12v system shouldn't be used? Or why having a trickle charge is a bad idea?

    Solar Panel for Overlanding

    I hear ya, and while portable battery is not a bad idea at all, my biggest resistance against a portable battery is the weight and size of them. Yes there are smaller/lighter options, but I don't want to worry about doing fine calculations about how much power I will need and if they will...

    Solar Panel for Overlanding

    Please correct me if I'm wrong, but to my understanding, the high voltage system in the Rivians is mainly for power train components, and the 12v batteries run the accessories. And the high voltage system will charge the 12v batteries as they get low fulfilling the duties of an alternator of...

    U2 band in R1S motorcade leaving the Sphere in Vegas

    Makes me wonder if we (Vegas R1S owners) can just sneak our way into the motorcade line and into the concert 🤔

    Any regrets on 20" All Terrain tires for suburban parents not off-roading?

    I've driven both. Got a R1S with 20" ATs and had a loaner from R1S with 22" sports for the past several weeks while mine is getting repaired. Very little difference in terms of comfort and road noise. If you keep your AC and stereo off and listen very keenly, you might be able to notice a...

    Southern Nevada Rivian Outventurers

    @Si.LE.R1S Holy cow, triple layer? Did you do lighter percentage and layer them up? Very curious what the light throughput on that would be. I have single layers of 5% on my back windows and thought it was pretty dark... I have 80% UV film on my front windshield. I was afraid of what the night...

    Emergency generator

    I was looking for something a wee bit smaller, I got a family of 4, 2 dogs, and camping gear I would have to haul 😅

    Emergency generator

    Its crossed my mind, but bringing a battery large enough to hold that kind of charge isn't very practical, and though I can wait about half a day for a slow charge, not sure about several days. 2.0kW/hr vs 0.104kW/hr(2.5kW/day) is quite the difference. I'm not trying to burn fossil fuels every...
