  1. Iowa Registration & Front Plates?

    I don't live in Iowa, but Oregon requires a front license plate. I have the plate installed on a SnapPlate license plate holder which I keep in the frunk. If I am stopped by the police for not displaying a front plate, I plan to answer in one of two ways: 1. If the truck is dirty (i.e., most...
  2. Tesla rewriting old FSD agreements

    So FSD = Full Self Supervised Driving?
  3. Rivian on Wifi network

    IIRC, Rivian comes up under several diferent names. On my network it's "u-blox AG"
  4. BT connection no longer works after May update

    Have you tried deleting all your Rivian devices from your phone and retrying the repairing process?
  5. Let's Hear About Your Favorite TuneIn Stations

    I prefer TuneIn Radio over Spotify, Amazon, Sirius XM. etc. because I like a wide variety of music and want to be constantly surprised. If find the human-curated stations offer the best variety of music and expose me to stuff I've never heard before. My station line-up includes: Mad Music...
  6. Can’t send planned trip to car?

    Just tried sending a route from Google Maps. Seemed to work fine from the phone's perspective. YMMV, I think. Didn't go out to the truck to see the status at the other end.
  7. Trunk randomly opening

    Happened to me once; never reoccurred.
  8. 2026.07.0 update again (same version, different build)

    Per my usual process, I will wait at least a week or two before installing after I receive notification of the download being ready for installation. Let someone else be the guinea pig! :cool:
  9. No Key Detected - WTF?

    Check that Bluetooth on your phone is turned on.
  10. What’s been your biggest "aha!" moment after months of R1 ownership?

    Windshield cleaning fluid, squeegee, and paper towels in the frunk. Problem solved!
  11. What’s been your biggest "aha!" moment after months of R1 ownership?

    I've never had an EV before, so the biggest surprise is "No more heading to the gas station!" Just plug 'er in from the garage. Also, automatic unlocking and locking, not even push to start!
  12. Rivian dropped my truck!

    OP also didn't specify new "Rivian" truck, merely new truck.
  13. Why Did You Choose Rivian Over Competitors?

    1. I wanted an EV. 2. Really wanted 400 mile range, settled for 300. 3. High-centered my Outback in the back alley and only Rivian had the ground clearance.
  14. Battery icon came up red. Can i drive it and how long before the Battery dies?

    My warning light came on on Feb 27th, didn't drive it too much, kept it plugged in otherwise. Drove to Tualatin SC about 2.5 weeks later, on Mar 17th.
  15. Tualatin / Tigard Oregon RAN - Coming Soon

    Nice to have but the only time I ever go to Tualatin is for service and they always givej me a full charge before I leave. I'd be happier if they just put a damned SC in Central Oregon!
