  1. Cancelling my Pre-order, thoughts inside from test drive

    What’s wrong with a lightning?

  2. Finished R2 demo test drive? Share your review / impressions

    Ugh. Why is this simple tech such an achilles heal for them

  3. I reserved my R2 in late April 2024. I declined the Performance build but recently changed my mind. Is it too late to get the Launch Package?

    R1 Launch editions were being sold for a much longer time than 6-7 months

  4. XCARE Warranty. When to start it?

    I hate these warranties that advertise a coverage period where a large part of it just overlays with the factory warranty. Also beware of the warranty term that won’t pay out for cumulative repair work above what they deem the vehicle’s current fair market value - especially on quickly...

  5. Mark Rober teases R2 modification

    Sad this guy has completely transformed into a super douche

  6. Self driving update: Gen 2 and Gen 3 Autonomy on R2 should be similar for a "couple of years"

    I unfortunately needed a new windshields in my Y last month & can confirm the phantom windshield wiping even occurs on a pristine windshield

  7. Which R2 wheel size is everyone getting?

    20” I’m not going to risk being out of use for a vehicle multiple days awaiting a tire shop to get an oddball size in stock. Even worse if im on an out of town trip. Those believing these 21” tires will suddenly become commonplace because R2 exists are deluding themselves.

  8. R2 audio system is being tuned with "amazing results" per Wassym

    Audio would be an area where I would be fine if they just 100% copied Tesla. Even the cheapest model 3 has fantastic sound.

  9. R2 Jack Point Design - Potential Issues / Challenges

    Just thinking out loud here- would it be possible the entire recessed area is jackable (is that a word), and a square rubber pad could be used with an indentation for the smaller rectangle pictured for use with normal jacks?

  10. R2 Configurator is Live! 🎉 What's your configuration?

    Wait, are they really launching the R2 with the same 21” tire size that no one wanted on their R1 as the default option? 🤦‍♂️

  11. Rivian Assistant Makes Siri Look Overqualified

    The ‘thinking time’ is way longer than any other similiar type AI I’ve used

  12. Story: Introducing Rivian Assistant & Rivian Unified Intelligence. Unlock hands-free utility with Connect+

    Yea, ‘Hey Tesla’ is completely different then Grok & controls the vehicle. The ‘hey Tesla’ controls are ok at best (tbf they may have improved but I stopped trying to use awhile ago it as I just got annoyed) The only Grok integration I’ve noticed is with navigation, but I will also say it’s very...

  13. Story: Introducing Rivian Assistant & Rivian Unified Intelligence. Unlock hands-free utility with Connect+

    Having used Grok & now the Rivian assistant - Rivian is better it on any vehicle controls, playing media, etc; Grok is better for navigation, getting info about stuff & is more conversational - it’s way faster too. Interesting that both companies picked a very similar default voice, not just...

  14. Which R2 Color Will You Choose?

    I generally dislike green vehicles, but find Forest Green to look the sharpest on the R1S; on the flip side, Launch green looks the worst (to me)

  15. Electrek - Tesla and SpaceX announce $25B ‘Terafab’ chip factory — here’s why it reeks of desperation

    Human advancement has always put certain people or even entire industries of people out of work.
