I didn't follow 100% of everything in this thread, but I personally could care less about the underlying architecture but I do hope they will offer some sort of path to upgrade the compute hardware (like Tesla does) if that ultimately becomes a necessity to enable additional Driver+ features...

OP, I think it's time to sell the Rivian and move along. These trucks aren't for everyone, and that's perfectly fine.

This is something I've ranted about numerous times. It's so seemingly minor (and presumably easy to integrate since the charge door is powered already), but infuriating to have to unlock the truck just to tap the charging port and then immediately re-lock. That said, I'd be shocked if this...

At the risk of raising a serious question in this thread, are Tesla Superchargers price competitive anywhere? The convenience / availability is definitely unrivaled and I'm very excited to have the option regardless of cost, but in my area the Superchargers are just insanely overpriced compared...

The "p00r Trim"

My paperwork said 100 & believe my actual mileage at pickup was around ~21.

I would honestly probably bail on the VIN and ask to be reassigned to the next available. Sure, Rivian should be able to get it back to factory specs before delivery, but it's always going to be on the back of your mind now that you know it happened & I'd personally want more piece of mind when...

Tesla offers upgrades (and pretty reasonably priced, I believe as well -- couple thousand max). If needed to support hands free, that should definitely be doable by Rivian as well.

R3X priority will only be available to R1 owners who also purchase an R2 (kidding, of course). Check your Rivian account - as long as you used the same email, the R2 reservation should show up on the left tab (indicating everything is linked up correctly).

They offered me the removal of the front 12v outlet, removal of the frunk 12v outlet, and removal of the wood trim behind front seats, and upgrade to replace the Meridian sound system to the in-house audio system, all for $0 on my LE. Needless to say, I jumped on it before they changed their minds.

I'm not cross shopping the R1S with a CRV sized vehicle, and I suspect that very few other people will either. The R1 is, and is always going to be, a lower volume vehicle. The R2 is intended to be far more mass market. Most automakers share common design language across their lineups, and...

Aside from connecting / testing to make sure it worked at delivery (and realizing it's as quiet as a church mouse), I've used mine exactly zero times in 10 months. Plenty of room in the R1 for a real portable speaker (like a JBL PartyBox) if I need music I can actually hear outdoors.

Would be shocked to see many GX550s roll off the lot for under 6 figures (factoring in dealer markup) in 2024.

Guilty as charged! Think I hit the steering wheel button backing up and got the very bottom lip as it was coming down - knocked it off the tracks and then rolled down a little which is why the scratches / paint are where they are on the car. Fortunately did basically zero damage to garage door...

Excellent advice, really appreciate that & will give it a shot. And yes, the metal was painted so I do believe some of that is likely transfer (it sort of slid / rolled across the impacted area which is why there are numerous streaks). Not inclined to dump a bunch of $$ into this since it's...

Unfortunate incident this weekend that involved a piece of metal scratching up the black panel above the rear window. Nothing awful / all cosmetic so debating just applying some touch-up paint & moving along since it's still just a truck at the end of the day, but bothers me a little bit just...

You may have just inadvertently come up with the idea for a new investing strategy... short whatever TB is being paid to shill.

At first I thought you were saying you had a crockpot on / actively cooking the pulled pork while it was in the frunk :CWL:

Unless there's some sort of law or regulation on it that I'm not aware of, I can't figure out any reason why they wouldn't give us the option to adjust volume (within any required minimum/maximum boundaries) and choose a "traditional" blinker sound instead of the whatever that default sound is...

Man, Rivian really did overengineer the hell out of these things, didn't they?
