  1. R2 Standard Interior loses: ventilated seats, rear heated seats, torch flashlight

    This^ I always get a kick out of people lamenting there are no base model vehicles anymore. The reality is they weren’t great, they were cheap. I owned a mid-80s Toyota pickup in high school for my first vehicle, vinyl floors & cloth seats with manual everything including transmission. I had...
  2. Custom Made Rivian R1T Truck Cap Topper (Autofitpro) Group Buy - Interested?

    I wired mine to the harness there a while back and it works great, but it’s a Gen 1. I don’t see why a simple three way harness at the tail light wouldn’t work, plenty of vendors on eBay that could probably build with some measurements and pics of the connectors. Just a thought, what most...
  3. Awesome Inspiration for R2 from Europe!

    I doubt they ever will, but it’s just a piece of glass glued on up there. Surely it’s possible-
  4. R2 Standard Interior loses: ventilated seats, rear heated seats, torch flashlight

    Gotta pinch them pennies somewhere. Seriously though, so many people complained about stuff like the camp speaker and flashlights in the R1. Good to give the people options …
  5. 1EV R1600 Steel Wheels and BFG KO3 Tires on R1S

    I’ve had the same tires for about 7k, they are wearing great and still smooth and quiet.
  6. 2027 R1T

    Hasn’t been the case consistently, I got my ā€˜22 in Dec of that year. The ā€˜23s weren’t delivered until Feb/Mar, but that was early and they were trying to show first year production numbers -
  7. Jacking with underside panels removed-jack pads required?

    No - you will need pucks, the jack points are reinforced bolt-hole type points inboard (towards centerline on outer rail) of the wheels. If yours came with a spare, it has a cheapish plastic puck in the kit. Several of the vendors here sell better pucks, as a single or as kits of 4. I bought...
  8. Custom Made Rivian R1T Truck Cap Topper (Autofitpro) Group Buy - Interested?

    Shouldn’t be a problem if you get this one and appropriate ā€œLā€ brackets...
  9. R2 Performance Launch Package Gets Costal Cloud Interior - Rivian Stories

    We won’t really know, early R1’s were configured at deposit, so we didn’t know when the’d be making your config. What we saw was LE’s, Quads (large pack), then Duals, Gen2s, then Tris (when Max became available). Mid way through the quads they started offering stocked inventory, gave you the...
  10. R2 Performance Launch Package Gets Costal Cloud Interior - Rivian Stories

    Coastal Cloud is a light gray, similar to the Ocean Coast in the R1 … not white. I’m guessing they changed name due to accent wood, but unclear.
  11. Real-world efficiency stats towing a Lightship AE.1 with a Rivian R1T (Gen1 Quad)

    Our charging port location is a mixed blessing that may hinder the hitched dual charging, I’m guessing the port is at the rear of the trailer? Keep in mind in an ideal world your trips go something like this: * 1st leg - you start at 100% and get ~200 miles (100-20% SOC) * 2nd leg - you’re...
  12. Real-world efficiency stats towing a Lightship AE.1 with a Rivian R1T (Gen1 Quad)

    I’m curious how much weight these systems add to the RV, which also plays into the non-assist range hit. Clearly from your numbers it’s a great feature while towing. Having just done a 500mi trip last week with my Airstream 27FB, I worry about the charging as well. I primarily did Buc-ee’s...
  13. R2 Paint Colors & Interior Colors Walkthrough -- First Live Look From SXSW Debut [VIDEO]

    Because that’s what people buy, we say we love Compass or Canyon Red … but numbers speak for themselves. I really wish I would have gone Launch Green or Rivian Blue after living with Limestone for 3+ years. Hopefully fix that with the R2!
