haha, I didn't find my way here from Reddit, I have been here from the beginning as well.
What are you looking for here? Short of Rivian making this engineering decision and considering all the aftermarket sponsors of the enthusiast sites, what would be your perfect outcome here?
I stand corrected, someone else linked your thread here on it. So I will clarify...
"The identical thead the OP made on reddit"
There, now you can feel better and continue with your outrage that Rivian didn't consider the impact to your aftermarket jack pucks when they designed the jack...
With the exception of costco which uses pucks, so many of the third party shops around me use newer lifts and jack under the control arms now I don't know if I see this being an issue. I think the days of jack points are going away because there are so many designs for unique unibodies, EVs, etc.
A couple of notes here:
It's nice they offer it because the people with spare tire anxiety would be upset if they didn't
I'll probably pick it up, I do like the way it deflates for storage on our R1S, it's pretty trick
It does take up storage in the well, but if you remove the tray on top (in...
Team Michelin Defender here. They have about 15k miles on them with our 2023 LE and are still like driving on clouds. They crushed it in the snow this winter too...
Just finished installing here and like it a lot. Imagine all the tweaks they will add over the next months based on feedback.
For your steering wheel question, someone on reddit reported they could make routines. So you could make a start my winter drive" routine and it could turn on the...
That's great to see. I feel like interior NH was being left out. This is a good spot for our summer road trips to my in laws in Barnstead. We often have to top off just a few minutes so we don't arrive with no margin for error. We usually stop at one of the Tesla chargers near Nashua.
This...
Yea, I have the twist lock knobs and like those, very easy to put on/off. I'm surprised Rivian didn't go with that from the factory.
For those who keep the hitch in all the time, I wish we were like other countries and it was against the law to do that. Basically just increasing damage and the...
I think the way to go is to output 30A AC like the Ford Lightning does and let people have an electricial install a generator inlet/lockout when they presumably install their home charger. I get that it is nice to have the one installation solution, but as mentioned, time and market share is...
I have the J version and absolutely love it. Since winter of 2023 it has worked flawlessly with no failures. We love the remote holster for our garage configuration and it is a nice app that let's you track all the sessions and the cost of charging. We are showing zero wear on the cable or...
Check out the charging forum of this website also, specifically this thread: https://www.rivianforums.com/forum/threads/show-off-your-level-2-home-charger-installs-here.7940/
haha, I know they "Feather" the props on those turbines for bad weather, but they could have generated enough to charge all the Rivians they produce this year with that one storm!
I remember last year that there was a run on the sage yukon denali's and I assume that has something to do with the color selection.
My wife and I are torn on the purple, blue, and launch green. We like the blue, but feel it would look odd next to our Rivian Blue R1S :) The purple is fun, but...
