  1. R2 Rear Lift Gate Height Adjustment

    That's great news they're working on a tailgate OTA update.

  2. R2 teething/early issues -- Talk about your post-delivery concerns or headaches

    Someone on Reddit reported that R2 gave a 12V battery message and didn't wake up. Diagnosed as a "Rear Multifunction Module" https://www.reddit.com/r/RivianR2/comments/1vswic6/new_rivian_r2_12v_issue/

  3. Lease or Buy R2 ?

    Buy it. Leasing comes at a premium right now. If you need financing, search around with credit unions.

  4. Forest Green & Coastal Cloud for R2 AVAILABLE 1:40pm EDT 8/18/26

    Same. Probably won't order until I get a look at Coastal Cloud in person. Hopefully they can make some Demo R2s along with these customer orders.

  5. Growing efficiency Gap: R2 w/ 21" vs. 20" tire sets

    With all these AI posts, I missed the only actual worthwhile sentence in this whole thread. 🤣

  6. R2 teething/early issues -- Talk about your post-delivery concerns or headaches

    A few reports of R2 owners not able to DC fast charge on Reddit. Not sure if both reports have the same issue, but one was diagnosed: https://www.reddit.com/r/RivianR2/comments/1vq0y1g/unable_to_charge_r2_on_any_dc_fast_charger/

  7. Ketchum: Wait for LiDAR? - The Rivian R2 LiDAR story isn’t what you think

    R2 Performance with Launch Package has 400 TOPS per James Philbin at Rivian. I wonder if the 240 TOPS number is specific to R1 Gen 2? I can't even find Tesla's official TOPS number for HW4. https://www.reddit.com/r/RivianR2/comments/1thuvsd/comment/on4vuh0/

  8. R2 unexpected Drain - 7% over 4 days.

    Yes. Stick a camera in your garage and problem solved for $20.

  9. No real AM or FM radio in the R2

    I don't think anyone has reported a bluetooth radio they've actually tested with R2 yet. Might be some trial and error in figuring out one that works. I think there was some skepticism about Bluetooth earlier in the thread.

  10. First Crashed R2 totaled with only 110 miles (VIN 1200)

    😱These accidents are multiplying. Someone on FB reporting a rear end accident driving home from delivery after only 76 miles. Launch Green owners need to stay safe out there.

  11. First Crashed R2 totaled with only 110 miles (VIN 1200)

    With 110 miles, i'm guessing this auction car is a customer car. Just super bad luck. Interesting how wide the damage is around that wheel well and the wheel pushed back. Seems like a pretty serious hit.

  12. R2 teething/early issues -- Talk about your post-delivery concerns or headaches

    In a state where it's not required. He wouldn't have even had the extra license plate to put in it.

  13. How many R2 are being produced each week

    Premium hasn't changed timeline. RJ misspoke and then it was amplifed by a blog as an announcement of a delay.

  14. Half Moon Grey color issue - literally

    Looks like Rivian is doing a buy back on his 27XX vin. It sounds like the sales guy wrongly convinced him that it was lighting at delivery.

  15. How many R2 are being produced each week

    It's a ramp up so October through December will be the big months to watch. November/December probably going to be a logistics madhouse.
