I think it's happened three times for me. Always when I am in a rush, not sure how it knows... Most times closing the App (iPhone), waiting about 10 seconds, and then restarting it worked, but one time it took about 5 minutes of trying all kinds of random things before it FINALLY got it's sh&*...

I think it's great to get more EV choices out there for people and this looks like a well thought out SUV. But as @TollKeeper said, the power numbers on the RWD option are surprisingly low for a 7 person SUV. 215Hp??? I had a Subaru Baja Turbo with only 5 less Hp and with just me in it, it...

Thanks @Rob O, but I still don't really understand how that would push a manufacturer to use a shorter offset than the manufacturer. If +48 meets all the legal regulations why risk clearance and rubbing issues by going with a +35 offset if you are designing from scratch? I could see if...

I was OK (barely) paying what I did for a powered cover, but I wouldn't pay that for a manual one.

Sorry if a dumb question, but why did they do a +35 offset for a Rivian specific wheel when the spec as I understand it is +48? It's only 1/2 an inch, so it should be good enough, but if you are making specifically for Rivian, why not make it identical specs? Is it just to sell to non-Rivian...

I live in Denver and don't think AS tires will suffice. I have the AT tires and was driving my R1T VERY carefully around last winter and even at a crawl on local streets it was tough to control while turning and braking. It just has so much weight (and therefore momentum) that it tends to go...

@Michaewh - can you fold up the rack when it's empty? I looked at 1up's drawing and i think it says that there's only 3 1/2" of clearance from the end of the hitch to the rack when stowed and my truck needs at LEAST 4 1/2". How did you make this work? Did you use a hitch extender? I...

MY experience with an EV is: - I come home, pull in the driveway and plug in it every third time I drive it. Then I walk inside. About 15 seconds total. I am NOT just sitting there in the blazing sun, driving rain or freezing cold waiting to fill the tank. I have been saying for years that I...

It's above it, right on the ceiling

I've been meaning to sign up for a minimal number of charging companies and this post seems pretty timely. I had driven EVs since 2013 but have only charged at home, work(free) or at a Tesla SC so I didn't need any external accounts. I just want to be prepared in case I need to top up away...

It doesn't matter whether OP has replacement policy, it wasn't his fault. Although it IS a good idea to verify your policy includes this in case you have an accident that is deemed your fault. This situation could really cost him anyway. I ran the numbers on my loan and since the rates have...

Why's that? I didn't know about limits on taking multiple credits, especially in different years. I know it's only eligible for 3750 from the feds, but I think all of CO is still available - together that's a pretty good chunk of change.

Sorry to see your truck got wrecked. But glad everyone is OK. Not to be the negative guy here, but I am wondering how a situation like this would work if you have a loan on the truck. Normally, when rates are stable, it's no big deal but I know rates jumped a ton since you got yours. Can...

I am hoping that Builtright makes the side pieces soon. That would be much more useful for me than the front. I am not sure there are enough existing bolts on the R1T for the sidepieces though. For the front I'd prefer just L-track.

Not related to your search for other people to buy a full set, but what happens if you just ruin a wheel (accident, off-roading incident, etc). Does Rivian force force you to buy a set of 4 if you only need one?
