    I Don’t’ Miss CarPlay

    Iā€™m a longtime Mac guy and iPhone user. i loved CarPlay once I retrofitted my Mazda to get it. In fact, a car not supporting it was a deal breaker for a long time. As I became more and more interested in an EV, I made peace with the fact that the big players (Tesla and Rivian) didnā€™t support...

    Bait and switch - frustrated with inability to use music apps without Connect+

    I primarily use Apple Music. Not a Spotify fan. My point is that by hot spotting my phone, I am able to use the Rivian screen and native Apple Music app in the Rivian with all of the same functionality that I had with Connect+. thereā€™s a whole how to video on Riviantrackr.com explaining how to...

    Bait and switch - frustrated with inability to use music apps without Connect+

    Iā€™ve been hotspoting off of my phone since the Connect+ trial ended. I setup a shortcut on my iPhone so the truck connects automatically to my iPhone hotspot when I get in. Seamless and automatic. I am able to use Apple Music and Spotify with the exact same functionality as when I had Connect+...

    Sound quality with phone tethering

    I guess my question has more to do with how the phone connects to the car for WiFi tethering. Is data the transmitted over WiFi or Bluetooth? Trying to weigh the options when it comes to subscribing to C+. Since the subscription ran out, Iā€™ve been tethering my phone as a hotspot and using the...

    Cold tire pressure

    I inflated my tires with the on board compressor to 48 psi. The TPMS read them as 50 psi. Not sure which to trust.

    Connecticut Combination License Plates

    I finally received my CT license plates 2-1/2 months after my R1T was delivered. They sent me Combination plates, which Iā€™m guessing has to do with CT state law requiring such plates for any truck with a gross weight of over 8500 pounds. However, when I searched for information about the...

    Disconnecting Charger After Scheduled Charging

    Hi Everyone, just wondering if Iā€™m doing something wrong. When my R1T is finished charging to my set limit, the app and the truck say that charging is complete. The button to ā€œstop chargingā€œ is grayed out, which makes sense because itā€™s, you know, done charging. However, when I press the...

    Connect+ Trial Over?

    So it seems that itā€™s the cloud features in the app (live gear guard, remote climate setting, etc.) that arenā€™t working all of a sudden. Just an icon that says I have ā€œlimited connectivity ā€œ. Iā€™m at home with the truck and my phone in the same WiFi.

    Charger installation indoors or outdoors?

    Just wondering where most New Englanders install their chargers. Was plan Iā€™m on putting it in my garage, but my Dad is freaking out about EV car charging tires his electrician friends have warned him about.

    Connect+ Trial Over?

    For some reason, I thought the trial was supposed to last until 10/15. I received an e-mail on 9/17 saying my trial was halfway over, so I thought I had one month left. Anyway, today it seems I am turned off from Connect+. Guess itā€™s time to see if I can live without itā€¦

    EV Home Charging Recommendations

    check to see if your power company has any rebates. I went with Chargepoint because it was one of their selected brands for a rebate (Tesla was not an option). I was a little worried about future proofing, but then found out that the charging cable on the chargepoint is able to be swapped, so...

    My Dog is Afraid of my R1T

    Thank you! I will give this a shot. It also probably doesnā€™t help that there have been other big changes going on for him recently as we have some work done to our house.
