Love the look of these- can someone with a Gen2 R1T confirm these will install without issue? I've seen that the EV base and EV sportine ones are incompatible- so hesitant to pull the trigger until can verify a successful install on a Gen2.

Gen2 owner here- Not anywhere near San Diego so I wish I could help out more- But I can tell you definitively that the key card reader only works to detect the key card if it’s literally sitting on top of the pad - specifically on the driver’s half of the pad. I’ve had the key card in my hand...

Great straightforward video. Thanks for making this! I'll be subbing for sure

I've got the Graco slim fit 3 in 1 in my R1T. Have my son now forward facing behind me. Had to play with the front and car seat configs to get something that worked for me and him, but I noticed putting the front seat base higher up (make sure your steering wheel is calibrated to be able to go...

Interesting read. Did you for your grad project think about how the partnering of certain business segments with fast charging might accelerate or decelerate that path to profitability?

Yeah, posted too soon before finishing the video. Edited.

Great exposure from one of the biggest automotive YouTubers out there. Wish he talked more about the Rivian experience and less about the Cybertruck though. Maybe he’ll convince the Wizard or someone else in his circle to buy it, because he really seems to like it.

Apologies if this has been asked before but haven’t seen any one post this yet. Leased my R1T, but really want to put rock sliders on. Mounting kits give instructions for modifying the plastic covers where the brackets mount to- but is this an issue for a leased vehicle? Thanks!

Just a heads up- under my lease account in the Chase app I can already see the “request a lease buyout quote” button- pretty sure that’s where you’ll go to do the buyout, if you haven’t looked at the chase app yet. My lease only started 2 weeks ago so actually pretty impressed how quick they...

Thanks for posting this, I hadn’t seen that. Good to hear it’s in the radar, disappointing it’s not done yet. Seems like a critical issue, at least IMO. My suspicion is the lack of iMessage integration with 3rd party apps- and the desire to provide a unified UX for all users. Apple sadly has...

New R1T owner here from WNY! Loving my truck so far, but I do have one major gripe- the lack of any kind of native Rivian infotainment support for sending/receiving SMS/RCS messages!? Not wading into the whole lack of Carplay/android Auto integration, which has its own set of challenges- cars...

I picked up my base dual motor R1T Saturday and specifically asked this question to my advisor. He smiled and said "no comment"- but did confirm it's merely a software update that differentiates between the performance vs base. FWIW My base still feels about as fast as my old 2020 MB GLC 43...

Not at all- mine was ready for delivery and date set way before I paid the payment. I would hold off on payment until it's ready and the guide emails you about scheduling pickup, TBH. I pick it up Saturday from the Cleveland Service Center (wish it was the Southern Ontario one, but evidently...
