I have the truck for a month now, it's my daily driver and there are just a few things that I noticed and think it would be good to improve upon. Not sure how to feed it back to Rivian.
1. I'm a first time EV owner and whenever I enabled the cruise control feature, I always have my foot on the brake pedal just in case. Because of that, I noticed that when the truck is in adaptive cruise control, whenever it needs to slow down a little, the brake pedal will be pressed by the car. Not sure why it behave like this even when it only need to drop the speed by 1~2 mph. And I'm also wondering how that would affect the cruising energy efficiency.
2. The truck has A LOT OF POWER. It's very fun driving a truck with a 0-60 in 3 seconds. However, I don't think people would need to do reverse 0-60 in 3 seconds. It would be better if the truck has an option/feature to limit the power in reverse somy wife no one can accidentally speed up too fast backing up.
3. Going from ICE to EV did take some used to because of the regen. I took me almost 5 mins to get used to the High regen. After driving for a month, now I wish it could have a super high regen setting.
4. The remaining range estimation from the navigation is very accurate. I have 2 runs from Denver to Loveland on I25 earlier last week and the navigation range estimation was accurate with +-1 mile error even with me drivingat 5~10+ speed limit with passion.
5. Wish the media quick access can be on the left side of the screen instead.
Update:
6. The latest software update made the RIDE menu passcode a 5 digits instead. I had so much fun using that menu digging into the internal data... oh well.
7. The outside temperature on the screen is almost always higher than it supposed to be. Not sure why.
