Announcing our new "CLUBS" section where you can join or create a Rivian club or group! You can use this new feature to conveniently plan and discuss local events, gatherings or other club/group related topics.
So we encourage you to join (or start) special-interest and regional-based Rivian clubs at: https://www.rivianforums.com/forum/group-categories/clubs-groups.1/
I definitely don’t disagree with that argument. Perhaps I’ve just become used to the Model 3/Y UI and am now more accustomed to a slightly longer reach. Although unlikely, maybe we can hope for a little customization in that regard. Guess we’ll find out soon.I am personally not a fan of this layout, the same problem I have with the Tesla IU.
With the controls laid out horizontally across the bottom edge, they are not driver focus nor very ergonomic. You always have to take your focus away from driving and reach for the controls, and most of the time as a shorter guy have to shift myself from a driving position just to adjust basic controls.
Ideally the controls should have been laid our vertically across the left edge of the screen for all the driver controls and passenger control on the right edge. This way you can have your hand resting on the steering wheel and your adjust controls, which would be much more natural and easier to control.
I am sure, overtime I will get used to the UI and figure out how to operate it, although if Rivian can enable natural speech recognition like Tesla or the Android Automotive UI, I can live with a clumsy tablet UI.I definitely don’t disagree with that argument.

Zak, Welcome aboard the Forum! Nice first post! ?Not sure if this is new, but pretty cool that on the Colorado Vehicle tax credit landing page, Rivian is front and center!!!

Yeah, the voice command in the Tesla UI is one thing I give massive Kudos to Tesla for integrating natural voice recognition.I’ve found with my Model 3 the trick to not taking my eyes off the road to use the screen is to learn and use the voice commands ...much of what I want to do can be done without taking my hands off the wheel or eyes off the road to engage the UI. Admittedly, having grown up with slide controls for AC and heat in my Dad’s Chevy Caprice Classic I’ve had to reprogram myself to not reach for the controls.
I really hope Max Koff fat-fingered that....or maybe he is young enough that he grew up w/ common core math...2+2=5 for some of those folks...js. In 2 months....just means I will be waiting longer...ugh
As i was talking with @skyote could mean their summer programs for touring. Either way something is happening in 2 months so yay? Maybe? ??I really hope Max Koff fat-fingered that....or maybe he is young enough that he grew up w/ common core math...2+2=5 for some of those folks...js.

Since he is driving an R1S, that statement could still theoretically be consistent with on time deliveries for that vehicle in AugustI really hope Max Koff fat-fingered that....or maybe he is young enough that he grew up w/ common core math...2+2=5 for some of those folks...js.

Don't confuse the pics below as him as well. In the IG post, he tagged Rivian and R1T.Since he is driving an R1S, that statement could still theoretically be consistent with on time deliveries for that vehicle in August
Starting my 5th year of Model X ownership. Had countless software updates, a couple computer upgrades, overhauls to the UI, watched AP and EAP features grow and because more reliable, etc etc.Yeah, the voice command in the Tesla UI is one thing I give massive Kudos to Tesla for integrating natural voice recognition.
Are you on MCU1 or 2? Ever since we upgraded to MCU2 we have had a 95% success rate....MCU1 was straight hot garbage!DEFINITELY still waiting on a voice command system that's worth anything more than garbage...
