It’s honestly pretty frustrating how opaque they’re being about this. Even for those of us in the covered states, getting a straight answer feels like pulling teeth, half the time support doesn't even seem to have the details ready yet. I’m definitely interested in some extra peace of mind...

That’s honestly such a typical Rivian quirk, right? I’ve had a couple of those little things work themselves loose before, and it’s super annoying how easily they just pop right back out. Honestly, don't bother wasting a trip to the Service Center for it—a tiny drop of clear RTV silicone or even...

Swapping to lighter tires definitely makes a difference, but I've always felt like it's a constant battle between that extra range and actually having tires that can handle some abuse. I went through a similar process on my previous setup, and while the efficiency gains were noticeable, you...

When I was looking for ways to block out the sun in my own place, I tried different standard shades and covers, but honestly they were always kind of bulky or never seemed to fit just right. Eventually, I switched to using smart glass in a few rooms at home and it’s been awesome for privacy and...

I’ve had similar sticker shock with routine maintenance at some dealer service centers too. For basic caliper cleaning, I just pick up a can of brake cleaner and do it myself when I'm rotating tires, though I get why some people want it done professionally. Still, $300 just for caliper cleaning...

That’s a solid find. I actually made a similar switch a while back because those stock ATs were just way too jarring on my daily commute, and the highway hum was driving me crazy. The HT2s definitely smooth everything out, and you’ll likely see a nice little bump in your efficiency once the...

Honestly, you’re definitely going to want a set of pucks for the R1T. Since the underside panels are missing, those jack points are even more exposed, and the truck is way too heavy to risk lifting directly on the frame rails without a proper interface—you’ll likely just end up crushing the trim...

I had to ship a motorcycle and my old Jeep a couple years back when moving states, and I was definitely worried about picking the right company. I skipped the online quote forms because once before, I got buried in calls and emails just for asking about prices. What worked best was calling up...

I've shipped cars across the country a couple of times now, once open and once enclosed. My open carrier experience wasn’t awful but my car definitely picked up a lot of road dust and a weird nick on the paint, not terrible, but also not what you want on a brand new machine. The enclosed...

I moved out from Arizona to the Carolinas last year and had to deal with transporting my car too. It’s true what folks are saying about those online quote forms-my inbox and phone got blasted for days after I filled one out, and the offers were all over the place. What I learned is that it pays...

Yeah, it's the tires. The 22" Sport wheels probably have low rolling resistance street tires, while the Dune ones are chunky all-terrains. That alone can swing range by 10%.

Decent temp fix for light hauls, but flipping C brackets isn’t a feature, it’s a workaround. Kills your tonneau and channels. Don’t trust it near 500+ lbs.

Yeah, Discount Tire’s fine if you bring your own pucks. Some techs know better, others don’t. Hand them over clearly marked, don’t assume. Loveland’s better than Fort Collins. R1T spare kit: doable. OE rim, 35" tire, scissor jack, TPMS. Mount in bed or get creative. Skip the inflator kit...

I’ve moved several times for work, including cold-weather moves like yours, but never with an EV and trailer combo. My last big move was with a 5x8 U-Haul and a standard SUV, so I can imagine how much planning is needed with all the charging stops, especially with your dogs along for the ride...

I’d have to go with Deebo Samuel or Josh Allen too, but honestly watching how Joe Burrow has handled himself under big pressure has been pretty wild. The games have been so close this postseason, there’s a whole different level of drama when it comes down to the wire. Those moments when a single...

I totally mixed up this thread title too at first and thought Rivian was about to announce a new speed mode or over-the-air performance tweak, which would’ve been cool—I’m always hoping automakers squeeze more power out of the same hardware. I guess all the “big boost” talk was just about the...

Man, the wait times on these vehicles are just wild lately. I have friends who’ve waited years for their trucks to show up, and honestly, with all the hype around new tech and trims, I’m starting to think patience is the real test for EV fans now. I get your point though, it’s kind of a running...

I’ve always leaned towards blackjack when I'm at the casino, especially live dealer versions. The odds feel more favorable when you play smart and stick to basic strategy. You feel more in control versus something like slots where you’re just pressing buttons and hoping for the best. Roulette...

I’ve always wanted to take my R1T out to some place remote for astrophotography, but haven’t had the chance yet. My photos usually end up needing some editing before I can share them anywhere decent. To clean up my night shots and convert some video formats, I started using this...

I went through something similar a few years ago when I moved from Washington to Alberta. I had a used F-150 I wanted to bring with me, and even though it was already mine and I’d driven it for years, I still ended up dealing with both GST and a tariff. What made it confusing was all the...
