  1. Great Discount Tire Experience

    I feel like I’ve seen the spectrum of opinions on DT from disastrous to delightful. While I’ve never had a bad experience with them and usually at least get good to very good, I’ve gotta give credit where credit is due and report on a great appointment. At 53k ordered my second set of OEM...
  2. 2025.10 Update Now Installing

    Overall, happy with the update. A few things I’ve noticed so far, some of which I’ve seen others experiencing on G1 - minor inconveniences - Cleared SXM Favorites - Day/night lock sound switched to all owl/night - Climate Control came back as off - options quick menu comes up when I go into...
  3. Heads up display in Rivians future?

    Had a HUD on my 1989 Nissan 240SX. Speedo only. Liked it and was soooo unusual then. That did have a display portion built into the windscreen that made replacement pricey IF they could find one. I actually didn't get new glass with HUD display area after original windscreen took a stone and it...
  4. SiriusXM

    2 yrs and 10 months in - Still smitten with the truck, love the company, like the SiriusXM app while I've been using it on trial. Sounds like from this thread that the net situation is that each Rivian vehicle must have its own streaming sub whether net new, added to existing account or...
  5. NACS adapter = road trip game changer and thank you Alabama

    Took a trip to Daphne myself in last couple of months before getting my NACS adapter. Was really pleased to find a couple of Tesla SCs in a row with Magic Docks in AL. While in Daphne, had to resort to the MB (Chargepoint) DCFC at Buckee's down the road on I10 a bit. I love me some Buckee's but...
  6. Best Bag for Rivian-Tesla Adapter?

    I put mine in a mesh pouch and store that in the charging accessory case. There's space in there and, well, the adapter is another charging accessory :)
  7. R1T on Skull Island

    Pay no attention to the filthy screen. This is how my overhead view appeared earlier today. Unsettling after having watched Godzilla Minus One over the weekend:oops:
  8. Question regarding Supercharging

    I was pleasantly surprised by not one but two SCs in a row with Magic dock while on a trip to south Alabama. On the way home I was routed to an EA station at a Sam’s club with nothing near by, almost R1 unusable layout, non-working units and a Mach E settled in for the long haul on only working...
  9. Severe Damage Found Replacing Tonneau Cover Not Disclosed to Buyer

    I’m having a vague (and maybe completely incorrect) recollection of one of the Munro teardown videos around the tonneau that pointed out a LOT of sealant use. Also recalling they didn’t say it was wrong, just maybe an area for better and more efficient application. I wonder if this is what...
  10. Charlotte Service Center Coming?

    Maybe old news but I couldn’t find any mention of this in several searches and it wasn’t on Rivian’s map as under development when I looked. Saw on LinkedIn a bunch of Rivian service center related jobs for o location in Charlotte, NC. I hope it’s true as it would be more convenient for me...
  11. 2023.46 Software Update Details (Highway Assist / Driver+ / Navigation & More...)

    Couldn’t agree more and thanks for the article. I’m referring to actions I’d consider no more distracting than selecting and listening to music or a conversation with passengers. I too limit even hands free repsonses to things like ā€œHome soonā€, ā€œTalk laterā€ and for fun ā€œTLDLā€ (Too long. Didn’t...
  12. 2023.46 Software Update Details (Highway Assist / Driver+ / Navigation & More...)

    I must be missing a nuance on this topic. I do hands free texting all the time in my 2022 R1T. With eyes on the road and hands upon the wheel, ā€œSiri. Read messagesā€. And messages are read to me over the vehicle audio and responded to via my voice through vehicle microphone, all while pausing...
  13. Rivian Adventure Network Update - Billing to begin Early November

    +1000 for not being surprised and not whining about this. Since Mar ā€˜22 delivery I’ve got a grand total of 1 RAN session at an adventure destination that’s an REI in Concord, NC. ? That being said, really could have used the one in Blowing Rock, NC during a recent trip but whole site was on a...
  14. Munro teardown comparison: Rivian dual motor vs quad motor

    I would have liked to have heard some acknowledgement that doing the Bosch quad to start was a reasonable choice as it delivered differentiated quad capabilities in time to get them to market when they did. I think the Rivian-native dual motor is an awesome addition but had they taken the time...
  15. How often does kneel mode not work: same for easy entry/ exit?

    I’m in OP’s situation. Kneel and easy entry/exit don’t always work. My work around for easy entry/exit is foot off brake, turn off/on in settings and it works . I mentioned it to a mobile tech a while back. They suggested seat calibration. I may try that now that I can do it from the menu.
