    Shipment from rivian? Tabs or charger adapter?

    I grew up in the south where a ā€œtabā€ is called a registration sticker. I live in WA now and find the terminology to be a bit odd on a few things. Iā€™d start a campaign to correct things like this but I think the oddities are preferred. I can poke fun. I live here. šŸ˜Š

    Rivian executive acknowledges R1S AC noise problem

    This is a long standing issue that started with the June 2023 OTA. I thought it was bad (it is) but it got even worse with 2024.07.03. Now the AC compressor quickly ramps to max (buzzing and vibration), runs for 23 seconds and instantly drops to zero. Wait 2 minutes and it ramps again to max...

    100,000th Rivian Produced!

    Great to see this! I expected a bigger crowd at the factory for such a significant event. The next time they add another digit will be at 1 million.

    Where to fix tire puncture?

    Most any tire shop can patch. You just need to remove the tire and take it. If you donā€™t have the jack kit or a puck, then yes, go to Discount Tire or Rivian SC. Thereā€™s probably more to this frustration story than whatā€™s been said.

    Can we stop asking for CarPlay now? "The next generation of Apple CarPlay will take over all of the screens, sensors and gauges in a car..."

    Isnā€™t every business anti-competitive and looking for an edge? If we sued every company for trying to do something different and better weā€™d end up up in a homogeneous social distopia.

    Center display screen, can you turn it off?

    Itā€™s also a safety failover. In the event the driver screen malfunctions, some control functions will move to the center screen. At least thatā€™s how it used to be designed.

    Does the R2 have a spare tire?

    You beat me to it. I recall when the design for this leaked. Seems destined for R2 and might use the attachment ports at rear bumper.

    Can I buy a used 10/2022 Launch edition R1S now

    As an owner of 8/2022 build R1S I can say itā€™s been solid. Plus you get the original spec: under dash power, frunk power, rear headrest hook surround in wood, Meridian sound system.

    Tesla continues to lead in innovation - the Cybertruck tent.

    Oof, I didnā€™t think there was a way to make this thing look worse. I was wrong.

    Dash vibrating/humming during charge

    Itā€™s the AC compressor running a cooling cycle, in this case for your battery. In my opinion itā€™s flawed software logic running the compressor at full tilt regardless of ambient or battery temperature. In my case the compressor ramps up to full tilt on every single drive cycle before moderating...
