  1. OS 2026.31 Arriving today!

    I noticed in the rivian advertisement video for this new operating system that at 21 seconds you can change the drive modes from the steering wheel knob which was an R1 steering wheel. I don't see how that's possible. Did you?

  3. Great Truck - Unrealistic to Maintain

    What do you mean by maintenance? Assuming your warranty is over when talking about repairs. Yeah I agree owning outside of warranty is ridiculous on these cars.
  4. R1S for a Family of 7-Thoughts

    Not sure what everyone is saying here, I have a full house and load up all 7 people on trips and the amount of cargo space is insane. You have behind the 3rd row you have both the sub-trunk , the actual space behind the 3rd row and the frunk. If you need more cargo (which I've never had to and...

  8. Steering Gen 2 R1s loaner vs my Gen 1 Quad R1s

    Actually I just put on new Nokian tires last yr. And I don't run them in the winter so they probably have 5-6k miles on them. But to be honest even the OEM Pirellis did the same thing. They just don't track well.
  9. Steering Gen 2 R1s loaner vs my Gen 1 Quad R1s

    First thing I noticed was the tracking of the Gen 2 was MUCH better. Both have 22" sport Wheels. The Gen 1 always needs constant nudging to stay in lane. I did get a wheel alignment as well and still same issue. The G2 definitely seems more poised and just handles like your in a smaller...
  10. Proximity Alarms When Turning Right

    Look at the side parking sensor in the front bumper and see if the paint is bubbling.
