  1. Buckeye State Rivian Club

    @johnnylawson I am with the Bay Area Rivian Club (SF, CA area). I am trying to reach an R1T owner in the Cincinnati area that could help us out. We need to get a R1T vehicle scan. They would get a copy of the scan and be compensated. I don't work for the manufacturer, I would like to be a...
  2. DIY - Lower Front Bumper Fascia Removal/Paint

    Do you have any pictures of the cavity without the facia installed? I was curious if removal would allow inspection for mounting a front receiver to the frame...or manipulation of the tow loops...
  3. Is charging in Wisconsin as bad as it looks?

    I drove from northern California to northeast Wisconsin and back. Wyoming and Wisconsin were the worst for charging on the route. As others have said verify with plugshare. My trip was in December and I used ABRP (not built in yet), plugshare, and Google maps to coordinate the best route...
  4. 【BestEvMod】Let’s Do a Giveaway Raffle! End on 8/29

    Off road to cabin near Avenue of the Giants.
  5. Anyone know what this wire is?

    The terminal on the wire appears to be broken. Brake light, camera, rear window defroster, and antenna are all at that location on the R1T, unsure about R1S. A new terminal will need to be installed on that wire before it can be reconnected, and the other end will likely need to be removed from...
  6. Current Rivian owners - What’s one change that would make you happier?

    Welder doesn't need it all but an RV or V2H could use it.
  7. Current Rivian owners - What’s one change that would make you happier?

    I would like V2H, and/or 220v 60 amp from bed for welder, rv, etc
  8. Current Rivian owners - What’s one change that would make you happier?

    I was able to buy one a couple weeks ago, call in and try...
  9. Recommendations for home charger?

    I agree with this. Wait for Rivian bidirectional. Also have a Juicebox on a 14-50. Check your local utility company, ours was free after installation and first use. PG&E with Sonoma Clean Power is what I have. If you are thinking of getting a bidirectional in the future, having the plug in/not...
  10. Dog sling for back seat of R1S - recommendations?

    https://owleys.com/dog-car-seat-cover-travel-buddy/ I used this for several trips with 2 dogs in my R1T. Northern California to NE Wisconsin in winter. It holds/beads water from drool/snow/water instead of letting it through. Dogs are 70# and 65# and they did well with it. I have used it with a...
  11. Snow tire chain recommendations?

    I drove in crazy winter conditions in several states on that journey and never was required to put on traction devices. The triple peaks performance is great for someone with experience. None of the states that had chain rules in effect required me to install, I was waved by when they saw the...
  12. The good, the bad, the ugly - 2,600 mile round trip Denver to Michigan in the R1T

    5,000 mile road trip 12/18-12/30 First 4 days and last 4 days. Sonoma county, Ca to Appleton, WI and back. EA had many issues during this trip with the app, charging speeds, working at all, or charging correctly. I am not a EA basher and use them preferred when traveling. The low temps and...
  13. SNOW MODE & other nice upgrades coming in Rivian Software Update 2022.47 ❄️

    Freedom of choice is why I go with Android. The cost to develop is so high for an app on Apple platform. It does weed out bad apps better having to spend so much to develop, I'll give it that. I root for the little guys that have talent and time but not cash to pay off Apple. It's nice to be in...
  14. SNOW MODE & other nice upgrades coming in Rivian Software Update 2022.47 ❄️

    I agree, 5k mile trip starting Sunday CA to WI and back. Pumped to see how it goes.
  15. Snow tire chain recommendations?

    I think the tire clearance is only an issue in the front while turning. Nothing else makes sense. I have a set of AutoSocks, AL69 is for the 20's. Not as durable as chains, but I shouldn't really need to install them with the 20's. They are much lighter and easier to store/use. In CA it's a...
