Nokian Outpost nAT should be on your premium AT list.

how about video to the rear screen while driving? Do you have control of all screens, or just the main one?

Bingo. I was about to explain… I had a loaner R1S and was a little irritated to find they’d slacked on this feature with the R1T after seeing how effective it is on the S. I get that it’s easier/cheaper since they already have plumbing back there for the rear wiper, but it just seems cheap to me...

I got my update mid day yesterday. The reverse throttle behavior is way smoother. Now I just need to install the rear camera washer line I’ve been meaning to get around to all winter so I can see where I’m going… that and/or some reverse lights that are actually sufficiently bright to see...

I have the same approach and similar experience with Chelsea, MA with our four R1Ts (all of which have needed various things, many in the case of the two 2022s). I feel like I have a very good working relationship with the Chelsea team, and we honestly all seem to treat “the mothership” (as...

Yes please! We would buy 2 front and 2 rear bumpers if we could. I'm surprised you thought there would be more market for the cybertruck than Rivian. I see a lot more photos/videos of Rivian's out in the wild than cybertrucks, but maybe that's just because Rivian's have been out longer and...

Maybe it’s just luck, but neither my father’s 2022 Launch R1T (VIN 5852) or my later 2022 R1T (VIN10264) have ever had 12V issues. Perhaps it’s just a matter of time, but ours have been fine for 2+ years. We have had a whole host of things fail/need replacement, but honestly my goal is to have a...

According to comments on this Reddit post, it’s the rear defrost icon that activates it. Also a better visual on where the elements are. I happily stand corrected on that point! Now, if that’s the case, I wish we could toggle rear defrost from the app 🙃 https://www.reddit.com/r/Rivian/s/caqWOT8waB

🤯 Wow! I guess I wasn’t looking closely enough, and was looking for a larger orange “patch” (or thicker strip) like I’ve had on previous cars. I take back my grumbling on that lack of hardware, though I think they should make it an obvious item to turn on/off, or at least clearly state...

That's a good idea. I will probably still just try (and almost certainly faile) to remember to put it in Wiper Service mode every time I park, and continue whining in the hopes that someone will hear me and include both heating elements under the wipers and heated headlights for Gen 3. Not...

This is true—my New England ignorance is showing! I have traveled around California a bit, but not enough to experience the snowier bits. I still doubt there's as much freeze/thaw/slush as winters seem to be in VT increasingly. At least when I was a kid, it was generally colder and drier, so...

Yeah, I actually try not to buy things from them either. It was just the quickest link I found to show the tool, not so much the source. The best part about this tool is that it has these foam blades that wrap 360º around the paddle end so you can use various differently shaped edges to get in...

My father’s 2022 Launch R1T (VIN5852) just got back yesterday from the SC for the same issue, though his was bad enough that we would observe it cycling the compressor and adjusting itself multiple times in a 10-15 minute period (if we were near enough to his “sleeping” truck to see/hear it)...

If you have nothing in the bed, and you don’t mind clearing a little snow out of the bed, open has the benefit of your tonneau not icing over/jamming. I always leave it closed, and just deal with the fact that I often can’t open my Tonneau in the winter due to it being iced up 🤷🏻‍♂️ Closed is...

There are seals, internally, as pointed out by the mobile tech (he texted me this photo as we were discussing the upcoming second repair attempt since the first failed the next morning). While they are sealed, it seems like a poor location to have such tiny wires so exposed without more...

It’s mid repair. You can’t really see from the photo, but the harness clips into that hole. edit: I looked back and you can see the clip, where it goes, and then the fender plastic liner nut/stud you are referring to which must have been off in the second photo (due to it being mid repair I guess):

Yup! I was shocked at how poorly “protected” this sensor and its connection to the harness is. The mobile tech who found the issue agreed, and after splicing every wire to a new plug (the original had multiple corroded wires, with one totally broken off of its pin inside the plug), I asked that...

After having to repeat my issues far too many times, if I can help it, I basically don’t even bother with Roadside Assistance or normal 855RIVIAN5 CS people (what I’ve taken to sarcastically referring to as people from “the mothership” when talking to the SC staff). They are almost always nice...

I haven’t purchased a Rivian since the referral program existed, but I believe there is a place to enter the code when you put the deposit down. Or you should be able to follow the link I posted (if you want to use my code). I’d be happy to answer other questions about the purchase process (we...

It gives you (the person purchasing the vehicle) and the person who’s referral code you use (an existing Rivian owner) $750 to use in the gear shop and 6 months of free Rivian Adventure Network charging. Basically a win win! I believe it drops to $500 of gear shop credit after the new year...
