I got the snowflake at 43 degrees. It wasn’t that cold out. Once I got off the road and put it in park then drive again it was gone.
From my experience it seems to appear if the battery is below around 50 degrees.

It indicates that Rudy Giuliani is about to schedule a fund raiser to pay his legal liabilities, to be held at 4 Seasons Total Landscaping in South Philly.

If you miss this one, not to worry, there will be many more.

Most EU cars also display a freeze warning to alert drivers of possible ice on the road. In this case it is likely warning you about an I.C.E. on the road.

That's a message the SC sends to people who complain about little things.

[Realizing tk21 already made my joke, only better.]

I'm trying to figure the story behind your avatar photo. Was that yours? Is that a situation a Rivian (or any off-road vehicle) can get out of? I'm a road guy, and to my untrained eye, that looks like a helicopter lift rescue.

That’s me! And it’s a bit of a cheater-picture. Took that at the Hollister OHV. The truck can ford up to 3’+ of water. This was probably 28” or so.

Piece of cake getting through.

Truck has handled everything I’ve thrown at it with just street tires, and now has ATs so I expect to be having more fun this winter and upcoming 4x4 season (Utah trip next summer).

Cool! I think I interpreted the mud as thicker than it is, and deeper, since you describe this as fording water. Still pretty impressive.

In fact, on a second look, I'm realizing that what I thought was thick mud is a dirt-saturated wake of water. It does look fun to run.
