Iāve noticed about once every 200-300 miles, comma silently freezes and crashes. It makes no noise letting me know itās disengaging, I just notice that Iām suddenly drifting over the line, then it shuts off.
Iām running the latest sunny pilotā this started maybe a month ago when I switched to...
Iāve been experiencing the clunk when shifting into four-wheel-drive for the last couple of months, and it seems to be 100% resolved with this latest software update. Anyone else had this experience in their gen one?
Alright, gang, next month will be 3 years and over 60k miles of Rivian driving, between my R1T and R1S, and as much as I hate to admit it, I hate the seats. My back feels like garbage as soon as I get in, and my butt feels like Iām sitting on cardboard, to the point where I tend to take my 20...
Thought this little hack might come in handy for someone else. After trying a bunch of different sleeping pads, I landed on the new Therm-a-Rest NeoLoft. It's super comfortable, and packs down to be tiny (about the size of a water bottle), so I can leave it under the floor all the time...
I like to use my air compressor for tasks that don't need a 30' hose. Blowing up an air mattress to sleep in the back, pumping up bike tires, blowing out dust, etc. But it's hard to find an air hose that's female on both ends, so I had an Etsy seller make me a custom 6' hose! Very happy with...
At 1:14 of the video that Rivian put out, they said that Gen2 can unlock with Apple Watch. I am crossing all my fingers and toes that this will work for Gen1, as well!
After a few Rivian-less months when I sold my R1T earlier this year, I picked up my R1S in Denver 6 days ago, drove it back to Santa Fe, then to Flagstaff, then Las Vegas, then home. 1,775 miles.
At pickup:
Then on to the tint shopā 20% on the fronts, 30% all around, 70% on the windshield...
Iām wondering if anybody out there is running a roof basket (like a Yakima LoadWarrior) and what impact youāve seen on efficiency.
Bonus points for pics. I havenāt been able to find anybody with this setup.
Hey all! Iām looking forward to getting my R1S in a few weeks. In my R1T, I would always keep a small fridge in my frunk (This ICECO). Super handy to have some cool water and snacks on hand. I know the newer vehicles donāt have frunk power, but Iām thinking I can have it tucked to the side...
Hey all! I sold my R1T a few months ago-- the range just wasn't what I needed for off-road adventure, and so I put my R1T proceeds into my Land Cruiser, which is awesome now.
But, I miss the Rivian for daily driving, and I'm thinking about buying an R1S. I know the early reviews said that the...

Hear me out⦠what if we could give up half of our gear tunnel space for a small nuclear reactor that would keep the battery full all of the time and provide us with unlimited range?
I would definitely pay a pretty penny for that upgrade!
The San Juan mountains are regarded as some of the most scenic off-road trails in the world, and many other groups do rallies/meetups (Jeeps, Land Cruisers).
Would there be any interest in a Rivian meetup? We could integrate charging stops into the plans (there are DCFC at Purgatory, Ouray and...
Iām in ATX this weekend and rented a 2021 MX P100D with FSD Beta on Turo. I had autopilot on my ā15 Model S (which still had radar in addition to cameras) and we subscribed to FSD for a month last summer on my wifeās ā21 Model Y.
A few impressions:
I canāt believe that FSD is publicly...
I had mobile service this morning to replace my frunk lid trim, and asked our New Mexico mobile tech about the tonneau covers. (Thanks, Alex!)
Here's what he told me:
He expects the retrofits to be at the service centers by the end of the month. (I'm guessing that he meant September, I didn't...

We took a short trip up into the San Juans last weekend to test out the latest iteration of our camping set up on the R1T. The goal was to comfortably transport and house 4 people (2 big, 2 little) in the backcountry, and use electricity as the fuel for...
I have an extra Roam lid organizer (this one) and realized it would be a perfect fit for the frunk lid. Now, the question is... how to mount it?
Has anyone removed the frunk lid cover? Any photos? Super excited for how convenient this is going to be...
I took a tour of the factory in Normal this morning with @johnnylawson , and we saw a dual motor R1T (limestone + OC + 22) towards the end of the production line!
our guide said it was the first that heās seen on the lineā seems to bode well for enduro s00n!
(sorry, no pics were allowed on the...
Completed so far:
Tires: KO2s
Racks: Overland Ruff Rax
Tent: iKamper Mini
Awning: 23zero 270-- note that the brackets it came with don't go quite high enough, and it rubs on the back door. I have aftermarket brackets on the way that should get it at least an inch higher.
In bed: Builtright...
