That is frustrating. You actually drove an hour + limited at 13mph?! Seems dangerous. Have you tried the manual release for the frunk? Maybe if you open it that way and then shut it, it will recognize as being closed. Worth a shot.

IIRC it did show up during my setup process. Only way I knew to look for it.

Please spare me. Some people don’t have arms or hands to begin with. I’ve never once seen a post or heard a complaint about the positioning of the hazards button in the vehicle. But now that Rivian has rolled out this awesome new functionality people (or person) want to complain about these...

I can’t believe Rivian wasn’t thinking about someone severing their arm and needing to turn on the hazard lights with this initial release. The rest of your complaints are just about as ridiculous as that “use case”.

You must be real fun at parties. It's pretty amazing all of the things it CAN do, and it will only get better over time.

This may or may not be helpful since my G1 has the single 12v + capacitor. When my 12v died in the garage we were able to get it going again by accessing the frunk via the emergency release and hooking up the tow truck's jump pack directly to the 12v. We had previously tried it on the rear hitch...

I’m just as confused as OP on the trip meter. Total miles driven is a simple calculation. Total kWh used is a simple calculation. Why does A/B not equal C? My trip meter is the same way. Pretty much spot on for my 1,500 mile trip A. Not even close over the lifetime 31k mile trip B.

Was also told my 211xx was ineligible by Rivian.com chat support a few months back. Going to ask the SC to double check next time I visit because I'd really like a PTC.

Correct me if I'm wrong but I don't think mobile service was ever sold as we'll drive 6+ hours (roundtrip) to you, so you don't have to. It's a bummer because I know you love the vehicles but it never did and never will make any business sense to waste a mobile tech's entire day on one customer...

You can still use Spotify via your tethered phone if you don't want to pay for connected data services in your vehicle. Might as well call your cell phone provider too and see if they'll comp your monthly phone bill.

You're overthinking it. I have EV Sportline's sliders (highly recommend but will spare you the sales pitch) and haven't bothered to replace any of the plastic trim. The GOAT sliders look similar enough that they should be comparable. 2.5 years later and everything looks and works just fine.

I’m surprised no one has mentioned the Hankook Ion HTs. There aren’t a ton of reviews but what’s out there is all positive. They’re similar to the Defenders, much cheaper, and have a more aggressive A/T look (sort of) with the sidewall styling. I’m definitely going to give them a go once my...

Impeccable timing. If I hit 59k with my original suspension I'm planning to spend a weekend in my garage watching Youtube and continuously cycling from lowest to highest :rock:. Hopefully won't have to tack on any vacation days.

I indicated interest in the launch edition and also see what OP is seeing, so that's likely the difference.
