  1. Charging port door will not close

    This...why is it necessary to have a powered door? Just one more thing to eventually break (or in this case fail right away). Good old manual pop out covers have worked just fine for decades. Also, don't even get me started with the electronic pop out door handles :D......
  2. R1S 2025 El Granite - Terlingua off-road adventure

    Beautiful pics, love your creative style. Congrats on the new ride!
  3. Rumor: line shut down for the next two weeks?

    Maybe too much inventory and sales have slowed 🤷‍♂️ ? Just a thought, I know many who are waiting a bit for that next major financial commitment to see how this current trade war is going to play out.
  4. First Major Rivian Commercial Van Fleet Customers Announced: Hello Fresh & Factor Meals

    Congrats Rivian and Factor, another piece of the puzzle that ultimately will be electrification of all light duty vehicles....the writing is on the wall!
  5. We all know how safe our R1* are in the real world. Now for the dark question....

    This is why Musk is trying to kill (pun intended) the required Fed tracking of these numbers. https://www.reuters.com/business/autos-transportation/trump-transition-recommends-scrapping-car-crash-reporting-requirement-opposed-by-2024-12-13/
  6. Pirelli Launches Scorpion XTM All-Terrain Tire with gas and EV variants

    I've been using Pirelli P7 Cinturato all season's on my cars for years, I love this brand. I see many don't on here.
  7. Rivians spotted in new Long Way Home series

    Huge fan of this series, McGregor and Boorman are fantastic together...I'm sure this will be another soul moving adventure! Yes, their last one "Long Way Up" got me interested in Rivian too, was super impressed with what they put that truck though especially being a very early pre-production...
  8. Rear Ended - Thankful for R1T Safety

    Happy to hear you're all ok, hopefully the driver of other car has better days ahead (I've learned to not judge as everyone has/had a demon to fight). Makes me never want to take my motorcycle out again...but then I do every summer.
  9. List of compatible tires (for each Rivian factory wheel diameter)

    New Pirelli All Terrain... https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a64391434/pirelli-scorpion-xtm-all-terrain-tire/
  10. R2 / R3 battery pack photos from RJ

    Yeah, that SOC for the range doesn't make sense though...
  11. EV Noob here = thoughts on R2 configs?

    I'm so looking forward to the R2 online configurator so I can waste a bunch of time playing with it ;)
  12. Cargo storage patent (R3 / R3X)

    The requirement is for when the hatch might be open on side of road, others can still see hazards. BMW iX has lights behind the tailgate to meet this.
  13. 25% Tariffs on All Imports - Effect on Rivian prices?

    Well I get that's it's very complicated, but the WH is not explaining things this way and imposing that China has a tariff of 67 percent being added to all USA goods imported. So confusing.
  14. 25% Tariffs on All Imports - Effect on Rivian prices?

    Please help me understand...If China was already charging USA 67 percent tariff according to the White House chart, and are retaliating with 34 percent, that's over 100 percent tariff?!? That can't be right.
  15. Rivian Service Centers Now Offering Detailing

    My Guess is this will have nothing to do with service times, most likely having a 3rd party come in or they've hired folks that just do this. Either way the cleaning would be done after service is complete...no?
  16. Rivian CFO: R2 production starts first half 2026; sourcing 95% complete; global sales (3/5/25 video)

    Yeah, amazing how he thought Falcon wings doors and a polarizing stainless steel design were going to be good business decisions.....but hey they look cool, right? Shame they have not reinvested into R&D for faster charge speeds, battery tech or updates to Model X (this things needs to be a...
  17. Door handles funny behavior

    I think car companies do these because they project luxury or like you say "software defined"
  18. Rivian CFO: R2 production starts first half 2026; sourcing 95% complete; global sales (3/5/25 video)

    Yeah, the QC issues need to be corrected now. Their warranty costs have to be well above industry average, and obviously it's clogging up the service centers they do have. I'm sure they're learning, R2 is obviously going to have some issues but lets hope they get it right (mostly) with the...
  19. How R2 / R3 Scroll Wheels Functions Will Work (From Patent)

    Perhaps an air suspension will be an option on higher price models?
