We don’t. we’ve only had EV’s since 2018 (Technically I have an ICE collector car and an ICE motorcycle but those are never alternatives to our EVs) , I treat my EV’s like what they are regular vehicles. I’ve been on many long trips it’s never been a problem or even an annoyance

I can answer those questions I had my alignment checked at my last service centre appointment they align and check alignment at standard ride height according to Rivian. not having it perfectly aligned at standard would not minimize wear at standard and low it would make it bad all around for...

You can’t design it so low doesn't cause excessive wear, it’s physics and just the reality of the tradeoff of having adjustable height. yes it would impact sport but to a lesser extent because you’re not loading up only the front tires as much. Reality is it’s not an “or” question if you drive...

well the real problem isn’t the fwd It’s that conserve lowers the vehicle by default AND goes fwd only, the dirty little secret of adjustable ride hight is that the camber of the wheels changes depending on your hight you have. The vehicle is aligned from the factory at the standard ride height...

That doesn’t stop Rivian from adding an NFC option to their apple watch app for G1 owners

I get no UWB on gen1 but come on at least give us nfc on our watch that would be just as good for me absolutely no reason that can’t be done from a technical standpoint given the G1 hardware

I’d also like the stl free or paid, op holding us all in suspense here

still waiting for G1 Quad Launch Mode and Messaging support

It has one bluetooth module but it supports at minimum two simultaneous connections you 100% can send two audio streams The “number” of radios is irrelevant, it’s how many connections those radios support. Most modern radios support multiple streams. As well you’d only be using the transmitter...

I don’t think there’s a single vehicle in the world that “forces” you to do this but it’s a less intrusive additional layer of security that you can turn on in some other cars at least in comparison to what the MFA sounds like

have to agree to disagree, the ipad on a seat back has proven problematic for us as well even currently Rivian supports 2 concurrent bluetooth connections so there’s no technical roadblock to allowing a bluetooth connection to the rear screen only. Angle is no issue for us my kids spend an...

I could be wrong but prepare for the “I was camping out of cell service and my phone died and I couldn’t get my truck to start even with my keycard or keyfob.” Based on my reading of how this works that scenario is easily possible. I mean I could be wrong but this just seems unnecessarily...

not if you have young kids as I do. Incredibly useful then.

the mfa looks super convoluted, just give me pin to drive. Not excited about anything in this update. Will patiently wait for the next one. Just give us text messaging, full interior rgb control and V2H already, or maybe something useful like video to the rear screen while driving

I mean really thinking about it you shouldn’t even need to set the tire size. The vehicle has onboard GPS they should be able to take in the speed measured by GPS and take a measurement of axle rpm and calculate total wheel size, you could optionally add total tire/rim weight to further dial in...
