  1. Rivian vs Scout

    I don’t necessarily disagree but the factory is being built (slowly). If* they come to market, I’m only interested in the BEV version and how it compares to whatever Gen of Rivian at that time and whether VW dealers will be service centers.
  2. Four years, four R1Ts. An adventure and a bitter-sweet cautionary tale.

    Important context here. Different suspension designs and time will tell on what they did for the HVAC.
  3. NO REVERSE BEEPS ON R1S OR RIT

    it’s the old IT joke but steering wheel and seat. OP said it’s happened on 3 R1’s and family is gun shy riding with him. I turn my rear alert off for the bike rack but the cameras and the rest of the sensors do a great job. So do my eyes.
  4. 20" Inch New Tire: GoodYear ElectricDrive AT

    Can attest. I’m 12,000 miles into my Territory AT’s and the noise is still pretty much the same (low). Much quieter than the Pirellis were at this mileage! @B Digs - still waiting for a 34” option these. 😀
  5. Pennsylvania Freebie - camp speaker drawer replacement

    Apologies for the late reply, I bought this printed from one of the vendor sponsors on here. Sorry, dont remember which.
  6. Indianapolis to Maine road trip (via Philly and Boston) - 2200 miles

    EA blows. Use the grades filter for chargers. 'A' or bust. Most of the turnpike rest areas in PA, NJ, NY are kicking off Tesla and installing 3rd party universal chargers that dont show up on our nav systems -they seem new and good quality. Go Birds 🦅
  7. RJ says R3X is ~2 years away. Confirms R4

    Speaking of Fisker, anyone been to NYC lately? Theres a ton of them running around as Ubers. Makes me wonder if guys bought them cheap at liquidation and drive them until they die.
  8. TWRAPS phone charger

    I just installed one of these as well and no reboot issues. I am partial to OEM stuff vs aftermarket but it's a great solution for 1/2 the price the Rivian re-design might be. Looks clean. Only comment I had is the MagSafe magnets are so strong that the whole thing sometimes lifts up when...
  9. Rivians have poor quality?

    same reason people bought Alfas, Jeeps or any other car that's fun to drive. The emotional attachment is stronger than the practical one. Everyone has different tolerance thresholds. You seem to have met yours and sold it. I still love mine.
  10. Venting Windows

    Add me to the list. Never noticed this before but yep, only vents on the passenger side when waking from sleep. When car is awake, it vents both sides correctly. Did either of you open a ticket or get an answer on this?
  11. Lindsay VW of Dulles - The Nations #1 Source for Pre-Owned Rivians

    My buddy was one of them! He’s very happy with his R1T.
  12. Remote Entry?

    Yeah, I upgraded to a 17 for the UWB support. Hasn't been great so far. I think it's the iOS app vs the car OS.
  13. Remote Entry?

    I might be in the minority but I had zero issues with PAAK and BLE in Gen 1. Since I got my Gen 2, this digital key / UWB implementation has never been as reliable or consistent (for me)
