Ask us Rivian R1T owners ANYTHING [AMA]!

[NorthernOak]

I don't think anyone has the tent yet but I think this can be answered anyway. If you have the tent mounted (or anything else above the bed) can you access the spare tire and remove it? I'm sure it would be more difficult but is it even possible?

Yes. I have the AT tires with spare and with the cargo crossbars in place you can still open the spare tire well and pull the tire out. It would be a pain to do it that way because that tire is heavy but it can be done.

Have any of you tried purchasing a second key FOB?

No.

Can the roof top bike mounts also be used when the cross bars are in the bed?

Please elaborate. In this scenario, do you mean bike mounts on the crossbars over the bed? They aren't exclusively "roof top bike mounts." Or do you have 2 sets of crossbars for 4 total crossbars?

Thank you! You answered my question. They aren’t exclusively for roof mount only. I was planning to only purchase 1 set of crossbars with 2 bike mounts so it looks like that will work.

Sure do!

Sure do!

That is exactly how I'd like to configure, if I ever get crossbars? I've actually got a Highroad on roof of our Q5 and its great.

What bikes are you putting on? I assume anything longer than 70" has back wheel hit cab spoiler or back window and forces crossbars and Highroad to roof. I'm wondering if something might be created to safely/securely give Highroad a further aft front mount to allow for longer bikes. Over the bed seems best option for many reasons, if it can be made to work.

What bikes are you putting on?

I'll mount my different bikes when I get home and take pics, but we have a 700c CX, 700c road bike, 26" MTB, and 650b MTB.

Is there a way to toggle the battery status on the driver screen to show % of charge remaining instead of estimated mileage? I always preferred this view in my Tesla - for some reason it caused less range anxiety for me as it feels more precise than estimated mileage.

As of now I can't find an option to toggle it to % of charge, though.

There currently isn't a way to change this. I also use percentage in my Tesla as that, in the Tesla at least, is a more accurate number to go off of. It does seem in the Rivian they're doing a good job of displaying accurate mileage numbers but like you I would prefer they allow me to choose if I want to display percentage or miles.

This is extremely disturbing. Battery SoC is the single most important parameter descriptive of the vehicle's status. An SoC bar display is the equivalent of an ICE Vehicle's gas gauge: (0 - 100%) ~ (E - F).

If it is not available on the driver screen is it available elsewhere (main screen)?

Yes, under the in the ?. Best way to describe it, lol. I can send a pic later

Sweet. I’m pretty sure my near-vintage 26” will fit. My wife’s new 27.5”(650b) is super slack and long (>70”) so probably roof-only for it.

Is this area covered with PPF from factory?

 

[jjswan33]

Is this area covered with PPF from factory?

Partially. Only the section in front of the door to the wheel well and below the ridge.

The other place I am aware of with factory PPF is the gear tunnel door.

Also in the phone app
