I have not been out into the Maze. I went as far as High Spur after leaving Boulder (UT) at 100% charge, and went to GR to top off. Mistake: I took the Lower San Rafael Rd for a more direct route to Hans Flat and that road ate battery. I would have been better off staying on Hwy 24 for range...

Once again, the entire south central Utah corridor is left out. Still won’t connect Green River to Hanksville to Escalante to Zion. Sorry EV owners, no tour of the “Big Five” national parks for you!

Hanksville. I’ll keep saying it anywhere and everywhere I can. As perhaps the only current Rivian owner in Garfield county (Bob in Escalante, did yours arrive?), I am uniquely positioned to identify this need. One single charge station there would open up the biggest swath of national parks...

Rivian please put a RAN charger in Hanksville, Utah. Huge inaccessible segment of the Southwest for Rivians until someone does. Lake Powell and much much more. Please.

That makes sense. I’m at 27k so no adjustment period.

Truck is in for tonneau replacement (yay!), and I asked them to rotate and balance tires (I do drive off-road quite a bit and noticed a little vibration at or above 80mph). They quoted me $60, then today I reminded my tech that I absolutely need balancing at same time, and he advised me that is...

Contrary to a couple of initial comments made here, the best thing we can do is keep this conversation going and highly visible on the forums. Jeremy told me that although he can’t engage or comment on any of the forums, he reads them EVERY DAY. Hi Jeremy! If we keep highlighting all the...

Yes! Good news. Jeremy, the Rivian rep we met with, says they are moving Escalante up on their priority list. It’s was originally scheduled for perhaps 2028, but because of the obvious demand he is pushing it ahead. Hopefully we can get it done in 2024. They were here to look at Escalante...

Apparently Rivian IS listening and agrees that this area should be a priority. They are coming out to Escalante next Wednesday to review a potential RAN 6 bay charger location, after a stop to look at Green River as another. I will be meeting with them and explain the utility of Hanksville as...

Escalante and Hanksville chargers would open the entire red rock desert and the largest concentration of public lands in America to RV travel. Almost 14 millions visitors came through here last year spending over 1.5 billion dollars, yet you can’t really get here in a Rivian without unnecessary...

But...this is one of the biggest vacation destinations in America, and the type of terrain Rivians are made for. I doubt there is a single location in the USA that has this level of visitation and this big a gap in charging infrastructure. It would literally take two high speed chargers to...

I live in Boulder, Utah. One of the most remote towns in the lower 48. In spite of this, I was able to land an early R1T back in March, 2022 by manipulating my delivery location and changing my delivery address to the service center address in Denver when I heard they were delivering based on...

Ha, I thought I was the only one. This spring I had a small glass "item" fall out of my pocket and in trying to retrieve it, I managed to shove it through the aforementioned Black Hole. It is/was replaceable, but I quickly learned that items in the black hole will roll back and forth on the...

I live in Boulder, Utah and have 2000’s serial number R1T, delivered March 2022. It would be almost impossible to explore around my home if I didn’t live here and have a level 2 charger installed. This is a huge problem for visitors and I just assumed that within a year we’d have some high...
