  1. Discount Tire no longer raising all 4 tires due to safety concerns?

    Dear @Discount Tire, is this true? Any additional information you can share? From someone else’s social media post- Perhaps I've missed it, and apologies if I have, but I found this interesting. I buy my tires (20" AT) from Discount Tire, and have all my rotate/balance work done there ... Today...
  2. Review: I rode the ALSO TM-B E-Bike: Rivian Micromobility Startup’s First EV

    I asked ALSO customer service that question and they said 80-100 lbs, depending on configuration. My existing e-bikes are 65-75. It’s hard to find an e-bike hitch mounted carrier for more than 2 e-bikes at 75 lbs each.
  3. Gen 2 tie rods stronger than Gen 1?

    Thanks for this. I bought the same because of the info you’ve posted, and installed tonight.
  4. DHD Tie Rod Sleeves Upgrade - Install Tips and Info

    I just installed the BroncBuster brace on my 2024 R1S Dual Max delivered March 2024. It’s too dark to get a good photo, but I’d guess one end has a 1/3ā€ gap while the other end has none. The 4 screws / bolts that come with the brace attach fine on one end, but I went to Home Depot, bought a few...
  5. Post your commute stats - New energy monitor is great!

    Obviously some elevation loss to my office.
  6. Rear Camera View Swingaway Relocation

    Like others have said here, I, too, don’t have my swingarm / tire mounted year round, so am interested in options for as quick and easy of a connect / disconnect as reasonably possible.
  7. Upgrading Gen 1 (14mm) Tie Rods to Stronger Gen 2 (16mm) Tie Rods

    I’ve also set an appointment with the Colorado Springs Rivian Service Center and they have a similar response, ā€˜no-go’.
  8. Upgrading Gen 1 (14mm) Tie Rods to Stronger Gen 2 (16mm) Tie Rods

    Thanks. I spoke with Rivian Service at the main 855 #, and then the local Denver Service Center rep twice. She said she spoke with a technician, and that their stance is that it's against company policy to do this and they absolutely won't.
  9. Upgrading Gen 1 (14mm) Tie Rods to Stronger Gen 2 (16mm) Tie Rods

    I understand, but I don’t have the time skills or tools to do this. I did a little investigating / reading up and it seems that a pro should be doing it and that Rivian should do the alignment after the replacement.
  10. Upgrading Gen 1 (14mm) Tie Rods to Stronger Gen 2 (16mm) Tie Rods

    Looks like they’ll make me call and plead to get this upgrade.
  11. Colorado Checking In

    Yes, I am in Highlands Ranch and DTC. Love them. Looks like you’re in the north metro. Perhaps someone else near there will also chime in over the next few days.
  12. Rivian just raised RAN pricing 47% over President’s Day weekend 2025

    Rivian just raised RAN pricing 47% over President’s Day weekend 2025. Montrose, CO was $0.36 Thursday 2/13/2025 when I used the RAN, and increased by 47% to $0.53 Monday 2/17/2025. Similarly, Salida, CO had been $0.36, which increased to $0.43 two months ago and is now $0.54.
  13. Edmunds' 2025 Gen2 R1T Dual Motor vs. Tacoma TRD Pro Off-Road Comparison

    @R.I.P. I would be curious to hear your thoughts, if you’re willing to watchthe video and read these comments?
  14. Anyone know where to buy brush guard designed for Rivian (or Bull Bar)

    I’d be interested in any real world reviews / experiences from anyone who has bought this, and run into a deer or similar wildlife. From what I’ve read, brush guards in general won’t save much expense / damage when driving at highway speeds, so the realist in me wouldn’t expect any different...
