    SXSW 2025 Interview: RJ Scaringe on the Electric Future and Unifying Vision - by iJustine

    More content of RJ, this time with iJustine at SXSW. A lot of the same talking points if you've watched other interviews with RJ, but still an interesting watch especially because she lets him talk. A few interesting highlights to me personally: RJ talks autonomy, but asks if Justine has a Gen...

    Rivian R1S Running Board Install - Help me understand plastic hole cutting

    Just recently ordered some running boards, the EVSportline RMaxx ones. Initially I was going just going to take all the plastic panels off, but other forum members convinced me that would be easy enough to keep them on and seal them with Gorilla tape. One of the install details that confuses me...

    Hurricane Beryl hit the greater Houston area last Monday, and I was out of power for almost a week. Fortunately I remembered I have a huge backup battery in my garage in the form of my R1S. During that power outage, through the use of extension cables and power strips: I kept my refrigerator...

    Rivian's chief designer Jeff Hammoud talks: colors, R2, R3 & more... on the How to Channel Luxury and Still Get Things Dirty show - DesignMilk

    A short Q&A with Jeff Hammoud that gives a little insight into his perspective about design. Nothing major or new, but the way he talks about the new scroll wheel makes me want it retrofitted onto my R1S!

    Are Cloud Dashcams Worth It In 2024? - The Hook Up (ft. R1S)

    No affiliation, I just like this channel's content and thorough reviews. To my surprise, he has a Rivian R1S now! TL;DW (but you should watch!) - Get the Blackvue DR970X-2CH LTE if you have a need for a cloud connected dashcam and have lots of money. Alternatively use a regular dashcam with a...

    Inside Rivian: A Conversation with CEO RJ Scaringe - Interview by The Next Generation Podcast

    I thought this was a refreshing interview, different from the typical business-centric media. Some pretty deep questions were asked, and it seemed to make RJ really dig deep. There was also some fun trivia too. Also, Blake and Will (the two 8th graders interviewing RJ) did a fantastic job! I...

    2FA - Two Factor Authentication Improvements

    Rivian does a good job sending monthly updates and improving the vehicle, but I hope someone is looking at the website/app also. A couple things I would like to see: Get away from SMS two factor. It's better than nothing, but I would rather have authentication apps. Have backup codes. It's a...

    Enjoying my R1S, but after some adventures its been picking up a lot of dirt and debris. I remember when picking up from the service center the Rivian employee recommended only to do hand wash and not go through an automated one. Anyone have recommendations or tips?

    Saw the post asking about who makes the Rivian Adventure Network chargers, and a question about Rivian Wall chargers. To my surprise, no one has posted this information on the forum yet. So here goes the proof from my own Rivian Wall charger, it is made by LITE-ON:

    R1S Delays - Back-Up Light Not Bright Enough

    Just wanted to poke around the forum to see if anyone else had their R1S delivery or pickup rescheduled due to a back-up light issue? Sounds like there was a big batch of R1S deliveries that didn't meet Department of Transportation standards for rear back-up light brightness. Looks like Rivian...

    Interview w/ Rivian's Max Koff (Director of Vehicle Dynamics) on The InEVitable podcast by MotorTrend

    About an 80 minute podcast with Director of Vehicle Dynamics, Max Koff. I wish I took notes while listening, but off the top of my head here are some interesting little highlights: Rivian could not benchmark the R1 vehicles against a single vehicle. They took the pieces from a Land Rover...

    The Story Behind In-Vehicle Delivery App in Rivian Electric Delivery Van (EDV)

    I thought it was interesting to see the collaboration between Amazon and Rivian on the Electric Delivery Van. What I'm really hoping for is what ever "maps" and navigation the EDV uses gets shared with the consumer vehicles. Pretty neat monitoring systems are implemented also.

    A Riveting "Truckside" Chat

    I have no idea why I clicked this YouTube video at all, but I'm glad I did. It is apparently an interview with Cox Automotive and RJ Scaringe that I had not seen this posted on the forums yet. Already timestamped to skip the Korean introduction. No big surprises in this interview, but I did...
