  1. M.O.L.L.E. panels

    +1 for BuiltRight, I've got the fully MOLLE set on my T and very happy with it. I have a 5 gallon water tank off one of the panels and it's been great for nearly a year. Also agree on the interior usage. I ran panels in the rear window panels on my old Nissan XTerra and had luggage off those...
  2. RIVBROS - DIY Vinyl Wrap and PPF Kits for Rivians

    Lovely! I really like the graphics options. If you made some mountain-scape type stuff, I'd buy that right quick!
  3. Winter Camping Gear Winners & Lessons!

    Awesome! I've been rocking the gazelle T4. A tip I learned the hard-way: it performs so much better in the rain if you use the guy ropes to pull flaps away from the eyelets on the side. Last fall I spent 2 days just outside the Hoh rainforest in my T4 in truly torrential rain and stayed...
  4. How often do you have to reset your Rivian wall charger?

    I've never needed to reset my charger, I don't think. Sometimes I have to reset the truck. Once every 2 months, my R1T will fail to initiate a charge from the wall charger -- either red ring or staying white while plugged in. It's happened about 4 times now. At first I suspected the wall...
  5. What cooler do you carry in your R1T bed?

    I'm running the 30L version of the "ACOPOWER&LiONCooler 12V Car Refrigerator" (amazon link). It has a battery that charges off a wall socket and can run the fridge for about 18 hrs on a charge. It fits in the bed w/ tonneau closed. The bigger sizes will NOT fit. Absolutely love this thing...
  6. 10,000 miles road trip - Los Angeles to Rhode Island and back.

    Awesome! I too have come to R1T glamping from moto-camping previously -- it's so luxurious!!! I have this fridge (ACOPOWER&LiONCooler 12V Car Refrigerator-32 Quart -- X30A) and it fits nicely in the bed with the tonneau closed. Absolutely love it!
  7. 【BestEvMod】HEPA Air Filter Replacement we made.

    Ditto. Agree the quality was flimsy, but it IS very effective against smoke! I installed mine during some smoky days up here in the PNW, outside PM 2.5s were around 100 or so (which makes the math easy). I have an air quality sensor (Wynd -- discontinued now), and tested both the outside air...
  8. What Was Your Previous Daily Driver Before Rivian?

    2010 XTerra, 2" lift, full off-road underbody protection. Absolute beast in any condition, took it on jeep roads and surprised the rednecks. Loved that truck. Didn't love the 15mpg. Sold the XTerra to a friend, so I still get to see pictures of her exploring the world. Now my R1T has 21s...
  9. Reason 1 why not to eat in your R1T or R1S

    Use fish tank filter medium! Back in Feb I dropped a chapstick into that crevice. It was rolling around under the seat for months. After they retrieved it (for free!) during a service appointment for wind noise, I vowed never again. I got some fish tank filter medium and cut it to a couple...
  10. What’s making noise in my front bumper area while parked?

    Ooooh, I've been experiencing that noise too! Can someone share more details on how to best get at the moving parts?
  11. Polestar Is Beating Rivals Rivian, Lucid With No-Fuss Performance

    We're a P2 (hers) and R1T (mine) household. They are both fantastic EVs! The P2 is really insanely fun to drive fast on gravel and forest roads. It's begging to have a rally build. The P2 is also much more confidence inspiring in winter weather. And the google integration is amazing (though...
  12. Steering wheel noise when extending/telescoping

    No kidding! Mine does this too. I thought it was normal. Sounds like my otherwise perfect R1T finally has a problem!
  13. My Rivian completely dead from ~40% vampire drain after a month long vacation

    Yes, my Polestar 2 seems to have close to 0 vampire drain. I've left it for 2 weeks in a freezing airport parking lot (Seatac) and had 0 loss. Nearly all P2 owners have the same experience. Amazing car. If only it had better range :-(
  14. How often is 100% SoC "safe"

    I think you'd have to work INCREDIBLY hard to degrade a battery below 70% SOC over 8 years. I view that warranty as really covering long-term defects. Charge state is a thing I worry about re: the big one (the earthquake, that is). We're an all EV family now (R1T + Polestar 2), and in the PNW...
  15. Small lighter lost under seat

    Holy smokes, this just happened to me with a chapstick. It rolls freely at every change in acceleration. I just tried making a kind of masking tape "sticky" trap, but had the hardest time intentionally fitting something into that opening. I have a snake grabber but can't really get it in to...
  16. RAN Rivian Charging Stations Locations Map via Google Maps

    Yes! Hwy 1 WA ->OR-> CA is now fully open for business!!! SO STOKED
  17. Has anybody used the touchup paint pen yet?

    I've used the pen on my el cap. I scratched the tailgate a bit loading a MTB. Pen was easy to use, the color matches, but I had a hard time getting the texture to match 100%. Within 5 feet and knowing the spot, you can tell it's corrected. Truck is currently covered in mud and will get a...
  18. Rivian Adventure Network Charging Stations Map Updated - Coming Soon Locations

    This naturally makes me nervous about commitments for the rest of the network. Still, if they get these done in the next year, I'll be super happy.
  19. Your experience stopping on snow, on a downslope hill?

    I recently posted a long review of the R1T in icy and snowy conditions on Reddit. TL;DR: On the 21s, I've had no trouble starting or stopping in a straight line, hill or not. (I also live on a steep hill, and it's been snowing/freezing all week). Lateral traction is a whole other issue, and a...
