  4. Looks like the Main Stream Media is starting to wake up - and realize the R2 is a home run!

    We have a 2025 Plug-in Prius. Yeah it's super efficient and it looks pretty decent, but at the cost of terrible visibility for the driver. That super low roof makes it very difficult to see anything around the vehicle when trying to merge, change lanes, etc.. it's especially difficult to see...
  5. Rivian Care now extended to 6 states as of 6/2 -- CO/GA/IL/NY/OR/TX

    Does Rivian Care have a detailed list of exactly what they include in their warranty? I was recently looking at 3rd party extended warranty offerings for my Jeep and one prominent company offered three plans, and I'm going to round off the numbers here.. one plan said "2,500 items covered"...
  6. Common Myths About CarPlay

    Well then, maybe I'm a "better consumer" than I thought 🤣
  7. Common Myths About CarPlay

    -In the eyes of Discover, and Visa cards I'm a "deadbeat" customer because I always pay in full before the due date and I haven't paid interest charges in over 20+ years. -I only have internet through my cable company, I get TV through a roof antenna/TiVo and internet, and I have an Ooma box...
  8. Common Myths About CarPlay

    Thanks! Good info to dive into and maybe partially the reason Rivian does not let you load 5,000 songs on a USB drive and play it directly? No way to monetize that. They would hate the way I drive, I don't search because I know all the local places I frequent and I play music off a USB drive...
  9. Common Myths About CarPlay

    Understood, but Rivian software is still running concurrent (just not on the display) with CP/AA so they would still know your driving history, vehicle metrics and would still have all the sensor/camera data for training, etc.. at least that's how I imagine it works?
  10. Common Myths About CarPlay

    Honest, non-stir the pot question: why can't Rivian still collect data while CP/AA is running? I mean I understand they won't see any of your searches, but they still know where you've driven, stopped, etc..?
  11. 500-800 miles from Service Center......from those with Rivian experience....how risky will this be?

    Sometimes you have to roll the hard six ;)
  12. Service 12V battery system immediately error. - Replaced faulty 12V sensor.

    And they have their own BMS which prevents the whole battery and or any particular cell in the battery from going below a low voltage cutoff level which the lead acid batteries do not have. The vehicle can have a problem where it drains the 12 volt battery, but it's BMS will just isolate the...
  13. Wassym Bensaid DECODER interview: AI Rivian Assistant, Apple CarPlay, VW Joint Venture

    Yeah, it was a ridiculous statement, even in my 2024 Jeep.. one finger tap on any of the left side or even top row icons instantly brings you right back to all the built in Jeep screens/features. Hardly a screen takeover :rolleyes: Would be nice if one of these "interviewers" actually called...
  14. Wassym Bensaid DECODER interview: AI Rivian Assistant, Apple CarPlay, VW Joint Venture

    Right there with you Sgt! Wassym says lots of things... only believe about 1/4 of it. He's pretty slick!
