  1. New Dynamic Glass Roof

    Spend $250-300 on clear tint for the roof. Game changer. Do the windshield while you’re at it.
  2. How much do new windshields cost these days? UGH

    Mine was ~$1700 and at a service center as well. O/N visit for glue to dry. Preferred glass company my ins wanted to use couldn’t get the glass since only rivian makes it
  3. anyone have windshield replacement experience?

    Had to replace mine and did it at Rivian Only glass out there at the time was Rivian OEM None of the glass places could get it So go with Rivian Took 2 days- they want the adhesive to dry before any rattling
  4. RAN Rivian charging station now live in San Antonio @ La Cantera

    For anyone else in San Antonio, seems we have a level 3 rivian charger at la cantera now. I hit 217 Kvh and it was free
  5. 21's vs. 22's tires & wheels -- differences observed from swap (Michelin Defender EV tires)

    So I’ve been curious about this topic. Just replaced my 22 pirellis with the same oems. I hit 25 k miles, so pretty happy Was holding out for the Michelins but decided against; the new defenders are a firmer rubber so I expect you’ll trade some handling/road noise for the added longevity
  6. Installing ceramic on glass roof to reduce cabin heat?

    I had xpel put clear tint on my R1T’s roof Cost $300 and worth every penny. Capon is cooler and better for my bald head Do your windshields while you’re at it ($2-250)
  7. 22" recommendations?

    I’m nearly to 25k on the OEMs. Tempted to do the Michelin defenders so I can use costco but probably sticking with Pirellis and discount tire
  8. Ceramic Window Tint - Cost?

    Windows were thrown on as part of a full wrap. But “clear” heat rejecting film for my windshield and roof were $200 & $300 respectively. I’m in S. Texas and highly recommend both
  9. 22" Michelin Tires @ Costco for under $2K installed (compatible with Rivian 22" factory wheels)

    Great news; anyone have thoughts on the ride yet? the Michelins have higher tread wear ratings which theoretically should make them ride/handle a bit rougher
  10. Console Vault

    I’m in San Antonio Got a number / address? I need one, ideally where that silly camp speaker is
  11. Any advise on dealing with Rivian insurance for windshield replacement?

    1st, make sure you have glass coverage on your policy. if smaller than a quarter, then get it fixed asap. I had a chip that spread to a huge crack within 30 min and had to get a windshield replacement. farmers insurance first sent me (by phone) to their approved glass vendor- who couldn’t get...
  12. 48A vs. 40A for home charging??

    I own 2 different properties, 1 hardwired 60 amp with a Rivian charger, the other via a Nema plug also on a 60 amp circuit i get 22-23 mph on the hardwire 16 on the plug in always regret not hardwiring my other charger; every now and again I’m in a hurry.
  13. Tint roof? Amount of heat let in? Opinions?

    Didn’t read the whole thread but my 2 cents Live in S texas Had to replace the windshield (had clear tint) due to rock- noticeable difference without it The shop that wrapped my car didn’t want to do the roof- claimed the heat gun they use to shape the tint might crack the glass Xpel here in SA...
  14. R1S horn sound weak

    Feel the same way; I was surprised when they told me my R1T horn was normal. Probably selected so as not to interfere with some goose migration or something
