  1. Does the R2 have a dedicated satellite radio antenna?

    My previous truck had no satellite antenna. I got a kit from Sirius for setting up a radio I could use in my house or my vehicle, via docks. It wasn't hard to install and worked perfectly for nearly 20 years. They still offer that kit, but you would need to purchase a radio, too. I got...
  2. Rivian Care extended warranty launched (update: now available in 6 states - GA, ME, MN, NY, SC, TX)

    I got that email today, but they don't respond to my questions. Like, what if I wait until I am closer to being out of warranty. The aforementioned xcelerate service agreement is over $2,000 less for the 10 year plan, and seems very similar.
  3. Rivian Wall Charger - *Really* Weatherproof?

    Mine is installed outside my home, and has been exposed to the elements for 3.5 years. Daily use. No problems, and still "looks" good, too.
  4. Rivian Halloween Mode SPOOKY SWAMP (2025) is Alive! 🎃

    Might be a dumb question, but I can't find where the App version is listed. Is it within the app somewhere? The updates tab just shows the current version of my truck. (.34 currently)
  5. Anyone in Kitsap County or on the peninsula have a camper shell / topper for R1T I can look at?

    I'm real happy with my Wakeshield topper. Blends well with the shape and aerodynamics of the truck, is easily installed/uninstalled. And doesn't interfere with the tonneau cover slots should you desire some two tiered storage. It also has a sleek look and I've noticed increased efficiency...
  6. Awaiting delivery on a r1s tri-motor thinking about canceling due to apparent reliability issues?

    Pet mode works great, and I also got a dark shade for the roof glass, which is also great for central Texas heat.
  7. Custom Made Rivian R1T Truck Cap Topper (Autofitpro) Group Buy - Interested?

    I have a shop full of random hardware and a box labeled "U-bolts". I grabbed one I thought would work, size wise, and went out to my truck. It fit quite easily. It was most likely a 5/16" x 1.5" wide. A J-bolt would work as well, but you would get a touch more purchase with the U-bolt (two...
  8. Custom Made Rivian R1T Truck Cap Topper (Autofitpro) Group Buy - Interested?

    Yes... and they even make rubber coated U-bolts.
  9. Custom Made Rivian R1T Truck Cap Topper (Autofitpro) Group Buy - Interested?

    Are we over thinking this.... A simple U-bolt would work, and easily hold the topper to the truck using the crossbar attachment points. Clean, easy.
  10. Disappointing Service

    I use my own mix and ask that they don't top it off for any of my vehicles when being serviced.
  11. Navigation: Toll Avoidance Setting

    I have selected that my on board navigation should not avoid tolls (I'm okay with them for speed and convenience in most cases). However, once we start the trip the navigation keeps trying to avoid tolls, often choosing a more circuitous, complicated and longer route than actually shows on the...
  12. Rivian now charging $.68 per kwh

    I may not be the norm, but I use chargers away from home very rarely. I only take two or three longer trips a year when I'm not flying somewhere. I charge at home the bulk of the time, have solar panels with power wall and what I do get from the grid is pretty inexpensive. With my previous...
  13. Good Rivian Exposure in new Hulu Series - Paradise

    There is another show, on Apple TV, "Dark Matter", and an R1T is used.
  14. R1S takes #1, #3, #9 spots in Motortrend's Fastest SUV list

    Did I miss the news where the max speed was upped from 111 mph?
  15. New 21" tire option - Michelin Defender LTX M/S 2 275/55-21 @ $380

    I'm about 1,000 miles in on the Michelins. I switched when I got a side puncture on one of my original Pirellis just past 25,000 miles. I wasn't quite at 3/32" yet and thought I could have gotten 30,000 miles out of them, but the timing was right, my local DT could get the Michelins and the...
  16. Custom Made Rivian R1T Truck Cap Topper (Autofitpro) Group Buy - Interested?

    Pretty nice. I don't like losing the tie down points. I would think you could replace the bolts with an eye bolt or similar so you could still use those points to secure the topper and have a spot for ties and hooks.
  17. Rivian reliability is a problem

    2.5 years with my R1T. A few minor issues. Taken care of in a timely manner, maybe not quite Honda service level, but good. Best vehicle I have ever owned. And the most fun to drive.
  18. Sirius radio

    I, too, have been a long time subscriber since they were launched in 2002. I was also lucky when I took advantage of the lifetime subscription they offered when they were trying to raise cash for the XM merger. I don't really miss it in my truck (Spotify works fine for me). One of the reasons...
  19. The Ultimate Rivian R1T RMAXX Gear Tunnel Slide-Out Modular Storage Management Sled System has Launched - EVSportline.com

    I did hear from them this morning. The boxes are backordered and should be going out mid June. The sleds are great so far, though I think I'll be adding some non-skid tape or similar to the side I plan on keeping just a sled. The bag I carry on that side and need access to often slides around...
