Ask us Rivian R1T owners ANYTHING [AMA]!

[Autolycus]

Based on my test drive, you can keep the rear view camera on whenever you want for an additional rear view. Obviously this limits your ability to use the screen for anything else...

I really hope they eventually add some additional UI customizability. The current setup looks like it wastes a LOT of screen real estate by being just single function at a time. Panels/windows would be a big help, IMO.

The most awkward thing I've tested so far was our ARB fridge. There's a little extra distance but I'm not sure it'll make that big of a difference. It's definitely built for adventure with some work capabilities rather than the other way around. This might be a better thing to ask again in a month or two.

Which ARB fridge do you have? Will the tonneau cover close over it without scraping?

37qt. It scrapes but functions.

Hey @timesinks if you would drive from my house in N Seattle to Mazama via I-90 (the long way in winter) and let me know:

1) how long you needed to charge in Leavenworth
2) SOC upon arrival

I’d really appreciate it ?

While you're up there, snap some pics at the top of Hart's Pass at sunset for the Real World Pics thread!

Wow... talk about going above and beyond!

Rivian should be sending you R1T owners some premium Rivian swag (not some cheap ass pins or overpriced ballcap... I'm thinking a set of sweet Maxtrax Recovery Boards or Cargo Crossbars yo!) for all the work you're doing on their behalf. Your answers are 1000X more helpful than anything I've ever heard from any of their CS reps

How many parsecs is does the R1T take to do the Kessel Run?

How many parsecs

Note that a parsec is a unit of distance, not a unit of time.

So who's going to be the hero and donate their newly received R1T to Dometic or ARB so we can have scans done and get a custom fit fridge freezer in the frunk

Not when it’s divided by c. It’s about 10^8 seconds, trust me.

Can two phones connect to BT at the same time? My BMW allows one to connect for media and the other for phone calls. Handy if you’re on the road a lot for work and have 2 phones.

Is there a heating element at the base of the windshield like in the Tesla? Nice in the snow/ice of the northeast.

It appears so. The bluetooth media is a separate pairing from the phone calls one.
