I probably missed it somewhere, but how are you getting this down to $1138? It's $1395.96 after the $60 discount for me:

If anyone is looking to get the Pirelli scorpion AS plus 3, it's discounted for prime day to 220: https://www.amazon.com/Scorpion-All-Season-Plus-3/dp/B099VXKCF2?th=1 I'm leaning toward the Michelin Defender LTX M/S2 purely for the weight rating and my (perhaps irrational) paranoia that using a...

Given the challenges/barriers to achieving a true objective comparison of efficiency, I examined Consumer Reports' metrics, especially pertaining to rolling resistance, and they (through a contractor) objectively measure rolling resistance on a dyno as follows: "Tire rolling resistance is a...

Thanks for the feedback! Yeah, I could definitely envision a scenario where Michelin discontinues the size in the future since Rivian discontinued 21" wheel option, so I tend to agree. As my priority is range/efficiency (and they look sweet), I'm debating AWZZ vs AW01, leaning toward AWZZ...

Has anyone heard feedback from Tire Rack on the likelihood that pre-orders for the 21" Michelins for the supposed September delivery (I heard September 13 from chat agent...fittingly Friday the 13th...) will be fulfilled? I really can't wait beyond September given current treadwear on my tires...

I had almost identical damage that cost about $5K to repair through a rivian certified collision shop in Denver..

Anybody have thoughts on this over R1T bed? https://www.rhinorack.com/en-us/products/sport-awnings/bike-carriers/roof/hybrid-bike-carrier_rbc050 Use will be 29 and 27.5 MTBs. My main concern is that the pictures appear to show the front wheel further forward relative to the front crossbar...

Picked up the truck on Saturday (in for the bumper replacement AND repair of additional damage caused by someone backing into the truck when it was parked *facepalm*). Nothing makes me as grateful for the R1T as driving a rental Buick Encore for a few weeks :CWL:

Add me to the list of people who were told a specific delivery window (in my case 11/8 to 11/13), did not receive it, and customer service says they still have no idea when it will be shipped...

To provide some closure to this topic, and hopefully help inform others in similar situations, I ended up getting a quote from a Rivian certified shop of about $1300 to replace the entire bumper. Not nearly as much as I expected, and given the delta of $800 over my $500 deductible, and that I...

Thanks all. Based on your advice/perspectives, I will seek estimates through Rivian Service Center and through at least one Rivian certified independent shop. I do wish these parts were more readily available for self-installation (if anyone has ideas on if there is a place I can order such...

Thanks. I’m obviously new here - is there a consensus about whether to take to a rivian service center vs Rivian certified independent shop when paying out of pocket?

You bet, see attached.

Hi all, I unfortunately have some rear bumper damage on the R1T as photographed. I was towing and the trailer hit the bumper. Both of the silver panels (especially passenger side) are damaged and the passenger side brake light cover is broken. Also the bracket that would hold the hitch receiver...

Excellent, thank you! Just picked up the truck last week, and this has been bugging me to no end.
