Couple more inches of legroom in R1T backseat. Surprisingly tight. Tough for my 88lb lab to jump in. R1S loaner had more space and was perfect...of course then there is less space in 3rd row

I would like to see two additional trip odometers. I would would also like to the the vehicle odometer appear as a constant on the driver's LED panel.

Hi fellow Rivian owners,

I’m curious what one thing you would ask Rivian to change/improve to make you happier?

And, I mean related to your Rivian experiences, not just with your life in general. ;)

Mine is better quality control. It doesn’t matter if it’s at the factory or the service center, but it needs to be done before delivery!
More RAN chargers on east coast.

RAN in rural areas. Most charger companies are focusing on the main highways and there will be more and more of those soon. We need more chargers in the middle of nowhere.
Like the entire state of WV!!

I'm pretty damn happy...

Proximity unlocking. PAAK or key FOB, neither work consistently. I had a brief period where it seemed to work rather good. Now I'm frequently standing next to my truck looking stupid. Then soon as I dig in to my pocket for the phone or FOB it unlocks. I swear my truck is pranking me and sending gear guard videos to other Rivians.

A parts store. Its one reason I'm a little afraid to take it off-road.

totally agree. How are we supposed to use an adventure vehicle if most of the chargers (Rivian and third party) are off freeways or urban areas where there are already CCS chargers. This is going to get even more ridiculous when the infrastructure act focuses most of its charging dollars on the same interstates.

Ha, I have the same experience with the key fob.

One of these days I want to create a funny video of the various ways Rivian makes you wait.

Waiting awkwardly for the vehicle to unlock
Waiting for the reverse lines to appear (on the first drive of the day sometimes it takes a few seconds).

Then it tells you there is a gear guard video, but its just of you looking like an idiot waiting for the thing to unlock.

I thought I was the only one suffering through this. Hoping service can address it.
