Ask us Rivian R1T owners ANYTHING [AMA]!

Can you turn off / freeze the screen to clean it while the car is in use?

I looked for this but couldn't find it. I've cleaned the screen with a cleaning cloth and it didn't really seem to care.

Well, no....but they are driving the vehicle 4.5 hours south on the most boring highway in Texas.

I-35 is always anything but boring. Most miserable highway, I would agree.

Instead of a cash tip, which they may need to turn down, a beverage and a prepackaged snack, etc. Depending on location, a fast food or Starbucks gift card?

On the location, there is a process with Google to update your actual home's location. I had to do that for my Tesla.

Not sure if that will solve the issue for Rivian.

Any idea of the gear tunnel could be hosed out to be cleaned, and if so how water proof the door is between the back seat and the gear tunnel?

It’s carpeted, but there’s a big rubber mat in there. Seems about as hose-outable as a car’s trunk.

Dumb questions as I'm coming from a dumb car.

Is there a parking brake?

How do I turn off Alexa always listening?

What are some defaults you like?

Edit: How do I make Spotify super awesome high bit quality?

Parking brake seems to be automatic. If you put it in park you'll actually hear it engage on the rear wheels.

Alexa settings are under settings and apps i think, some where in there.

I use mostly all purpose, i tried conserve on the freeway but our freeways suck and i hit one of the earth quake bumps on the freeway and it VERY loud, doubt i'll be using the "lowest" setting on the freeway again.

Carpeted is not what I expected the answer to be, wholly cow.

Can you adjust the headrests?

It’s like car-trunk type carpet. Robust.

Fronts no, rears i don't know. The rears can be removed but not sure about adjusted. They are pretty hard to remove though.

Does anybody have a photo of the underbody with and without the reinforced bottom?

Rivian has said that you won't be able to tell the difference on the surface because there's plastic cladding over the areas that are reinforced. It will look the same on both versions, unless you start removing pieces.

Can you use Conserve and then raise ride height from Lowest to Low?

No. Only Lowest and Standard.
