  1. Rivian Walk of Shame Thread

    Same, I think I sold my last 3 vehicles to Carmax/Carvana/Algo and traded one in to a regular dealership. Boats are just as bad or even worse... jerkoffs are just looking for a joy ride out on the bay with no intention of purchasing. It's so frustrating to the point where it's become a major...
  2. Rivian Walk of Shame Thread

    Sorry to hear that, private party sucks nowadays due to idiots looking before they leap or looking to screw you out of your property. Last summer I sold an older Jetski we had, I listed it for $2,399 and ended up getting $2K even for it. I listed it on FB Marketplace where it seems 95% of...

    Snowplow option for the Count's Slate????
  4. R2 Horn - WTF?

    Now that's a real horn!!
  5. Rivian cancelled an R2 customer pickup b/c paint didn't match (Half Moon Grey body vs El Cap fascia) **Updated 7/21** 800 vehicles affected

    Or they would have just unilaterally canceled the whole R2 program effective two weeks ago.
  6. Rivian cancelled an R2 customer pickup b/c paint didn't match (Half Moon Grey body vs El Cap fascia) **Updated 7/21** 800 vehicles affected

    Tesla had the same issue with the plastic bumper covers not matching the metal body colors on early Model Y's, specifically in white. It turns out the bumper covers were not painted at the plant in Freemont where the vehicles were painted.
  7. R2 Highway Efficiency Test: 80 MPH vs 70 MPH Changed Everything

    80mph is not illegal on certain roads across the country.
  8. Moving R1T a tiny amount to hook up trailer

    After two boating w/trailer seasons in the R1T.. you have to ride the brake with your left foot while simultaneously applying a small amount of pressure on the accelerator pedal with your right foot. Modulate your movement using the brake pedal not the accelerator pedal. Its the only way to get...
  9. R2 Highway Efficiency Test: 80 MPH vs 70 MPH Changed Everything

    This just highlights the need for the govt. to modernize the EPA range test cycles. They are certainly not taking in to account people driving 80mph.
  10. Cracked rear subframe

    Sorry this happened to you @Davis Cracked rear subframe? I don't recall reading about the rear, but lots of reports regarding a cracked front subframe. I guess it's just not that common...
  11. R2 Owners - what's the official treadlife/warranty on your tires?

    Again, you can easily verify my statements.. call Pirelli USA or BFG not Tire Rack. Over and out....
  12. R2 Owners - what's the official treadlife/warranty on your tires?

    I mentioned "call Pirelli or BFG" not TR. The warranties are always through the tire manufacturer not Tire Rack. Anyway, if you have a few min to spare, give Pirelli a call, like I said they are very nice people right here in the USA and they'll get you up to speed on the "OEM" vs "non-OEM"...
  13. R2 Owners - what's the official treadlife/warranty on your tires?

    ^ Lol, that warranty info is completely incorrect and Tire Rack is aware of that fact,, they just have never corrected it. Call Pirelli USA at 800-747-3554, they are very nice people, tell them you have a tire with"Rivian" stamped on the side and ask if there is a tread-wear warranty. Same for...
  14. R2 Owners - what's the official treadlife/warranty on your tires?

    It doesn't matter who installs the tires.. The only thing that matters is what's stamped on the side of the tire.. if it says "Rivian" (which is what is stamped on the side of the OEM tires).. no tread-wear warranty for you! Tire manufacturers sell two versions of the same exact tire, one has...
