  1. Does anyone else absolutely hate the Rivian Assistant voice?

    I had the nav issue where it said it found the location and it said it would navigate me to it, but the nav never changed, asked several times with the same result, then I told it that it didn't actually set the navigation, and then it did it. I've also had this same issue before with Alexa...
  2. Rivian Camp speaker does not work

    Mine is back to thinking it's full charged (when plugged into a USB charger), but as soon as I unplug it, it shuts off, so it won't take a charge because it thinks it's fully charged, but is apparently dead. Cant seem to reset it to get it to take a charge again...very frustrating, and Rivian...
  3. Rivian Camp speaker does not work

    I currently use a high power block to charge it (generic off amazon) and it has been working fine for me...it does seem to have a mind of its own and turns on randomly and just starts playing music.
  4. Rivian Camp speaker does not work

    I had the same issue, I finally used in so I could listen to music while working on a new garage and the battery died. Then it wouldn't take a charge. It would work when plugged in, but the when you would get the battery status, it would light up green, but would shut off if unplugged. After...
  5. Are supercars POINTLESS? Corvette Z06 vs Rivian R1T: DRAG RACE (by Carwow)

    Couldn't agree more with @CarGuyCarl. I purchased a 2024 Lotus Emira a couple years ago now, and the car is fantastic. V6, manual, did a 3rd cat delete and a Miltek valve controller so the exhaust can be open 100% all the time, so much fun and sounds so good. No comparison in acceleration...
  6. Toll Transponder Positioning

    In MN, you can apply for a $250 credit (for use in MN only) on a new Ez pass and they give you 3m Velcro tabs...you can also get as many Velcro tabs as you want so you can move the transponder to any vehicle you have. This spot has never had an issue for me as far as I know.
  7. Feature request - climate schedule limit by location

    I have a schedule also set for when I go into the office, but sometimes on those days I still work from home, and obviously, don't need the schedule to run (at least in the afternoon).
  8. Brake Wear - What's "normal"?

    If it's just the inside that's wearing, then it sounds like a caliber sticking issue, either needs to be cleaned/greased, or it's defective. If you are using full regen all the time, then you should see very little wear on your pads. Our Tesla MX has just over 100k miles on it and pads are...
  9. Am I the only one who thinks anything less than 400mi of range is legacy at this point?

    I like to stay hydrated on road trips, and drink a decent amount of water while driving, so at about 3 hours, I need to get out and stretch my legs too.
  10. Am I the only one who thinks anything less than 400mi of range is legacy at this point?

    I'm right there with you...we also have a 2018 MX 75d, and realistically we can go about 180miles between charges at 70+mph. That's usually about as long as I can go anyway before I need to stop. I would love to have an R1T that could do 450-500miles on a charge, which would make it great for...
  11. 20" Inch Best 20" Tire for Max Efficiency (R1S): On-Road with Occasional Snow Driving

    Were you able to get a percentage of money back on the HTS tires if you only got 18k miles out of them? they have a 65k Warranty, I would expect to get a prorated $ credit on a new set of tires.
  12. 20" Inch Best 20" Tire for Max Efficiency (R1S): On-Road with Occasional Snow Driving

    I've got a little over 24k on my stock 21's and I'm at about 3-4/32 left. I have a set of super light atomic wheels, and looking at the hts60 275/60r20's as my next set of tires for it. I'm wondering if you can share an update as to how the hts60's are doing for you now. Are you still seeing...
  13. “Touch Free” car wash just hurt my baby

    Not sure what the white nozzle, but like what the other person posted, a 0 deg (straight jet) will do the most damage, the wider the spray angle, the less potential damage, don't hold in one spot on the paint of an extended period of time. If you use a 40 deg tip will give you the best overall...
  14. “Touch Free” car wash just hurt my baby

    That's some serious pressure to do that, most touch free washes don't use that much pressure, and usually between 600-800psi. I own a car wash and run thru our touchless auto all the time with no worries. Our self serve bays run at about 1250 psi. If you are running a home pressure washer...
  15. “Touch Free” car wash just hurt my baby

    how does a touchless wash damage your car vs a brush, that actually touches and has more potential to do damage, then any touchless?
