  1. New Service Center, Fishers, IN - construction photos

    It would nice to hear from Rivian an official update regarding the project!
  2. Highway Assist: What happens if you fail to take control and don't watch the road?

    I can see why it would be taken that way. No harm meant. I could have said: "Referring someone to the owner's manual is not a tip, or a gift of teaching, imho. I therefore agree with the constructive criticism directed toward the original comment that the post I quoted was referring to." I...
  3. Highway Assist: What happens if you fail to take control and don't watch the road?

    "I'm hungry." "There are books about how to fish. You're welcome."
  4. iPhone Recognized/Connected but NOT as a Key After Update (Resolved: PSA not Complaint)

    Automatic Update last night for my iPhone 14 Pro Max (26.3.1), and when trying to leave work after a night of call, my 2026 R1S did not unlock on my approach. After opening the Rivian APP, it did unlock, but two things occurred: I got a "no key" error and was instructed to put a key in the...
  5. 2026 R1T is Edmunds Top Rated Electric Truck

    I test drove the 2026 Hummer tri SUV. It was a brief loop in suburbia and on a state highway. i really enjoyed it. The power is plenty to make it drive like a much lighter vehicle. Handling was firm. High position on the road was offset by the low center of gravity. it's just too big for...
  6. Level 3 Charging 2025-2026 for Rivian R1S May Require a $300 "Accessory"

    I don't take is as victim blaming, there have been plenty of similar comments and as I state in th OP, "obviously my fault" regarding the new-to-the-tech misread of the (included) L2 converter vs the L3 converter. One thing I think is misdirected is the true hater/troller post trying to shame a...
  7. One year and 15k miles in, the R1S Max Pack Dual Motor as an Off-Roading Vehicle for a Family of Four

    Super helpful for you to share your experience, thank you. I've decided to give myself a year or two before deciding. For now will continue driving my Land Rover LR4 with 19" Blizzaks in winter. I've never aired them down but have am holding off selling the LR and will use the time to get a...
  8. Level 3 Charging 2025-2026 for Rivian R1S May Require a $300 "Accessory"

    Thanks for the advice, just put in my order. I frequently drive the route between Indy and Empire (as you may have guessed by my handle). I've had a great experience with the R1S so far and look forward to taking it up north when the weather is better (for now, continuing to use my LR LR4 with...
  9. Roof Box for Skiis ⛷️ - recommendations?

    Are you thinking of a behind-vehicle box (like a swing arm)? My skis would not fit. I do like my roof box for ski and anything else I want to put in there year-round, which protects everything from the elements, too. Still haven't put cross bars on my Rivian, but anticipate the Thule roof box...
