  1. Rivian Care now extended to 6 states as of 6/2 -- CO/GA/IL/NY/OR/TX

    I wonder how particular Rivian is that you have a primary residence in one of the states listed? I have a house in Oregon, but its my secondary residence. When I get the R2 I could see moving the R1T to that residence, but the R1T has the advantage that it's excluded from the WA State RTA...
  2. Rivian Voice Assist and Apple Music still glitchy

    I have the same Apple Music Issue. I have not tried anything to fix it other than toggling the quality setting but that didn't do much. I don't have much issue with Rivian Voice Assist, but my usage is very limited.
  3. Ferrari Luce?????

    Its additional evidence that the reality I knew died. About a decade ago I debated about whether to get a used Ferrari or a brand new Tesla Model S. Had I known reality itself was going to implode I may have gotten the Ferrari. To enjoy the last bit of Italian excitement before the Apple Car...
  4. Rival: EX60 Configurator opening this month

    But, not a single vehicle available today has L3 on the highway at highway speeds. So it would be rejecting an otherwise solid vehicle because they didn't make a false promise. I've already been down that road twice. Tesla FSD Rivians promise to do eyes on hands free highway driving on the...
  5. Rival: EX60 Configurator opening this month

    For me to even consider these legacy companies means they have to commit to the US market. I was interested in the EX30 as a second car but Volvo pulled it from the US market. The legacy company I see truly committed is Hyundai/Kia BMW is starting to interest me though. Perhaps? I do plan...
  6. Rivian Assistant - Wish list

    Wish list: The ability to set default actions like turning on the heated steering wheel on every drive. The ability to ask it why the navigation is re-routing me and how much time its actually going to save me versus staying on the current road The ability to log complaints to Rivian Service...
  7. Story: Introducing Rivian Assistant & Rivian Unified Intelligence. Unlock hands-free utility with Connect+

    I'm sure you can ask it "can you turn on the Steering Wheel Heater?" But, what I really want is a "Can you you turn on the Steering Wheel Heater on every drive from now on?" Where it remembers my command for every session.
  8. Here we go again! Advanced Driver assistance tanking again...

    I'm a bit confused by this post as the proximity sensors have no impact on adaptive cruise control. I'm pretty sure I can put black tape on the Ultrasonics and I can still use Adaptive Cruise Control. I haven't tested tape yet, but I have left my truck ridiculously dirty. I did clean my...
  9. Don’t buy a Rivian and why?

    Don't buy a Rivian because of Zombies. Picture yourself running to your car because of Zombies and the car doesn't unlock for you, and you start doing the Rivian dance. The dance a lot of us owners do when the vehicle isn't registering the fob/phone/etc.
  10. RJ's commitments on Gen 2 R1 Autonomous Driving: L2 this year (2026), L3 next year (2027)

    I think RJ needs to clarify what he means with L3. Whether its L3 traffic assist or L3 Highway speed capable. For example MB does sell an L3 system in Nevada but its highly limited as its intend as a traffic assist system. Here is a Google AI Answer when I inquired about whether it was still...
  11. Car owners revolting over Tesla's self driving promises

    But, you're wise enough to hold off UNTIL its approved. Which means you're in the "prove that it can and I'll buy it" camp. You might be more optimistic, but you're still one of us. :-)
  12. 12V battery replacement AGAIN after ~1.5 years? Normal?

    Mine does and its currently in service getting the batteries replaced. The interesting thing is they're only charging me for one of them. They gave me a discount for the other battery. I wonder if its a way of trying to make it fair for those of us with the two battery solution? The original...
  13. YET ANOTHER 12V battery fail thread

    I got the 12V Battery Alert, but it was the RED one. It came with a message that said Range might be impacted. I never got the warning one. Scheduled a service appointment for tomorrow. It's a 22 R1T at 51K so I believe I'll be charged for it and I'm curious if it will be one battery or two...
  14. 12V battery replacement AGAIN after ~1.5 years? Normal?

    It's the second battery though. So wouldn't it be 36K miles and 3 years warranty for the new battery as well? In any case I have to do the battery replacement as well. The first battery lasted 3.5 years so its definitely outside of the warranty. Edit: A poster above said the new battery was...
  15. Hit by a Toyota Corolla Hybrid Today

    There is a pickup truck that attempts to enter their lane. They reacted and bumped into the OP. The pickup truck that cut into their lane that could be partially at fault for this accident. I say could be as the Corolla was being driven rather recklessly where they cut over quite fast.
