  1. AC/Heat Foot Vents - won't stay on

    My rear cooling stays on through drive sessions. nobody in the back
  2. Stick with solar brand for home charger?

    You should consider taking a couple of 15 or 20a breakers and swapping in a 15-50-15 quad Plex breaker or 20-50-20 You could also do twins somewhere else to make space. Just make sure whoever does it watches for shared neutral issues.
  3. Towing efficiency increase if I don't plug in harness?

    The weight matters less than the wind resistance/drag. How far you'll go also depends on your battery size and how fast you drive. With those factors in mind, ymmv.
  4. Any Audi drivers out here?

    I have an APR A7 and it's a really solid car. I'd rate VAG vehicles right behind Toyota for reliability. Out of warranty Id say Audi will be cheaper to fix but not by much. Also have an older BMW and something is constantly breaking on that POS. I have a Gen 1 R1S and it's been pretty good...
  5. Any dual motor folks out there?

    The added HP is only in sport. It also adds more ride height options, launch mode, another way to lock AWD on the street beyond stability reduced (though now included in non perf), as well as sand and rally for off-road. Rally is a great undervalued mode. Launch is a good way to f-up the drive...
  6. No real AM or FM radio in the R2

    Good to know but I don't subscribe to Apple music or use an apple phone, generally.
  7. No real AM or FM radio in the R2

    I'll have to try again. I could never get tunein to work so I gave up a year ago or so. Figured it was another stupid pay app of some sort where I couldn't even create a account.
  8. No real AM or FM radio in the R2

    Wait so do R1 owners now get am via app?
  9. $3500 Windshield? In Canada

    Mine has a crack across the bottom. Super weak glass. I'm not fixing it. It will just crack again in the heat.
  10. Early adopters who gave up on Rivian, RJ hopes you give Rivian another try

    The real problem is getting parts out of warranty and the insane cost. At least Tesla has a proper service menu and parts network now.
  11. VION Giveaway: Win R1S/R1T Roof Sunshades + Gray Option Available Now!

    I received mine as well. There are many descriptions on changing the filter but it's so simple on the Rivian compared at least to most Teslas and other cars I'll describe it. Simple pull up the cowl cover; no tools needed. Slide off the plenum. Notice I'm another victim of Rivian's poor...
  12. Half-Shaft issue thread

    I don't think they are going to switch away from trakmotive shafts. They are probably the only company that makes something that would fit. I think they could go to a better design with a larger spindle nut and rivian could revise their hub/upright with stronger material that doesn't deform.
  13. Half-Shaft issue thread

    Low ride height is least stressful. Launches are hard on them particularly if the steering isn't straight when you do it. The splines get a little knurled allowing movement which causes the back of the CV to squeak or tock against the hub. A complete failure is unlikely unless you are abusing...
  14. R1S 22" Tire Replacement Time - Decision Paralysis - Advice/Experience

    I also went with those and couldn't be happier. They absorb bumps, are quiet and I haven't really seen an efficiency hit. The PZ Sport corners better than an AT but they seem fine even on mountain roads. 2679lb tire rating =10700 lb Vehicle weighs 7000 lb cargo 1641 lb So plenty of margin for...
  15. Rivian Assistant Makes Siri Look Overqualified

    I was in the mountains over the weekend where there's intermittent cell and it died completely. Activate and it listens for two seconds and turns off. No local commands work as it doesn't listen at all. Got back into cell service in greater LA but it was still dead. Maps and all other data...
  16. Ferrari Luce?????

    For crazy EV money this would be my choice:
  17. [Engadget Report] - EX60 first drive: An ultra-smooth SUV for around $60k

    900v architecture is about the only thing I see compelling
