Maybe I should make a new topic but does anyone else notice no safety Nannie’s are enabled anytime you use *any* RAD tuning. That is a major problem and means I can’t run these custom modes due to liability. This is not a development mode. This is not an off road only mode —- I see NO reason...

AI/Gemini summary: The BMW iX and Rivian R1T represent two fundamentally different philosophies in EV braking design. While the BMW iX uses a highly advanced "brake-by-wire" system that prioritizes a seamless, "gas-car-like" pedal feel, the Rivian R1T utilizes a traditional hydraulic setup...

Wow, I'm reading that the brake pedal in the Rivian is primarily a friction brake. in my outgoing BMW iX had a blended brake pedal where light braking still was primarily regenerative and became progressively friction-preferred with heavier braking. That said, the regenerative braking is much...

Your tesla was thousands of pounds less than your R1T. These brakes are also undersized. Also 85k isn't low mileage by any stretch. Hopefully they continue to work on these wear issues, and sorry for the expense!

They may be a heavy braker, hard to say. This is early but not markedly so.

Issues/quirks: 1. Car came with multiple dents. Rivian made it right; reimbursed me for PDR but the car had been sitting there ready for delivery for 10 days --they should have noticed. 2. Screen complexity - core vehicle functions buried in menus. 3. No physical buttons for...

For four rotors/pads? seems market to me unless using a small local shop.

My god I wish mine wouldn't unlock. Mine unlocks from in the living room, if I'm walking anywhere in the house adjacent to the garage which is pretty much everywhere. May need to turn off remote entry. First world problem indeed.

Do we know the significance of the order #? https://rivian.com/garage/order/272208944 (assuming my preorder #)

March 7 preorder that i will prob give up, but I don't see this. How did you find this?

My charging habits have been pretty consistent because I like to work within resilient, flexible systems. I charge to 80% everyday with the R1; 90% with the iX (turn-in at lease end next week). Inevitably, with the kids, there’s a day here or there I forget to charge and the everyday habit...

Lightning isn’t canceled. They’re converting it to a EREV. Try to keep up. 🤷‍♂️😂

what is sic adoption? Fair assessment!

AI… tried a fresh grok inquiry bc copilot was getting squirelly!

So you’re still holding your guns? The article contradicts you.
