Here’s how I put together a spare tire kit for my R1T: https://www.rivianforums.com/forum/threads/my-cobbled-together-budget-spare.12808/

I was thinking that Rivian verified & doubled down on the R1 today. As an R1T owner, I was a bit concerned that they’d show a much different/better looking vehicle, with completely different & better looking front lights, and an R2T. They did nine of this. So my R1T is not going to look outdated...

Agreed. Showing an air mattress might’ve begged the question - does it have an air compressor? I suspect that it won’t have an air compressor, or it would’ve been mentioned.

Agreed. As an R1T owner, I also appreciate that they didn’t significantly change the overall design, such as the iconic front lights. This will make my Rivian look new, or least not outdated, for a long time. This will help resale values, which will help all things Rivian.

Your analysis fails to consider how the larger tires improve the looks & off road performance. For some of us that don’t need to maximize range, it’s worth the tradeoffs. What if we were to hypothetically consider doing the opposite, mounting thinner than OEM tires? They’d be lighter and...

ABS would certainly work, but PLA is good enough as long as it’s a good print.

12 months & 15,000 miles of R1T ownership. ZERO problems.

I realize that this vehicle isn’t even a living concept yet, and renderings always look better than reality. But it’s fun to dream about driving cars like this someday. Kinda like how we dreamed of owning 800hp quad motor luxury EV trucks not long ago. I’d love to see Rivian build something...

It seems like there’s a few people here that really want this setup to have poor range results. I don’t calculate my range on trips or obsess about range while driving, I enjoy the vehicle. I rarely use Conserve mode and I generally drive as fast as I can get away with. I’ve also let many...

The rubbing is only at the extreme outer edge of the tire. I’m guessing that if the tire was 2-3mm narrower it would not rub. after using these tires for about 10K miles now, there’s no damage to my inner fenders from the infrequent rubbing. So it can’t be much. So yes, I’d bet that a...

Also, Tesla had the unique advantage of being gifted a free factory (Fremont) & production tools from Toyota. That had to help.

Not difficult, but not convenient. Just like when two taps on the screen was all it took to close my garage door, but the new one touch steering wheel option is a huge upgrade. I agree with the OP, I’d like an optional setting to have all the exterior lights turn off when in park. Especially...

In some cases “frame damage” can be something that’s easily repaired, but for some reason the insurance company will not allow it & insist on replacement. These become salvaged title vehicles that are repaired & used without issues. I know someone that got a great deal on a nearly new Porsche...

I purchased RIVN this morning also for the same reason. The article linked pointed out that the stock has risen 60% in the past three months. So perhaps the market was anticipating this good news & had already boosted the stock price accordingly. Also from the article: “…new EV SUVs and...

Weren’t comparable versions of those SUV’s priced at least that much higher than the R1S?

Thanks for sharing this. This is the first time I’ve heard that Amazon’s order has been increased to 400K vans by 2025. This seems like big news. Has this been verified? Also on this video was the topic of other companies lowering prices of some EV’s, and does Rivian need to lower its prices...
