  1. 2022.35 OTA software update rumors?

    I really want a battery state of charge graph when you put a destination into the navigation. Similar to Tesla. It's one of the most useful displays for keeping track of your expected battery level when reaching your destination. I would also like the trip computer to not include vampire...
  2. Volvo EX90 could be worthy competitor to R1S

    The EX90 electric will probably be the best combination of luxury, quality, and size for a 3-row EV. I'm hoping they will have some innovative storage solutions like a large front truck. If not that could be a miss. Off-road performance will be mediocre, but it will probably drive on-road like a...
  3. Does the wrist band key still exist?

    We received a wrist band with our LE delivery in August. No case, just the band.
  4. Quad Motor $2000 price increase, now $8000!

    It's very rational that Tesla is worth more than all other automakers combined. /s Might point exactly.
  5. Camp Kitchen Update: Rivian aiming for Fall release

    As long as the kitchen doesn’t end up like the powered tonneau cover, it will be worth the wait. Hopefully they are getting it right and making it bomb proof.
  6. Quad Motor $2000 price increase, now $8000!

    As someone with Quad motors on their R1T, who will never really use their capability, I will definitely switch to the dual motor setup for our R1S order. The Quad motors are completely overkill except for a few rare cases. When you consider other competitors like Tesla, they charge $17k for...
  7. No plates, Day 12 using rental car.

    Purchased our R1T in August, temp plate expires in October, and I just received my plates on Friday. Rivian was faster than most dealerships and they actually covered the cost of registration and sent the plates with the stickers. Normally when I purchase from a dealer I receive the title...
  8. Moab Trip in Two Weeks, Charging Options Look…Dismal

    The most common plugs at campsites are Nema 14-30 and Nema 14-50. I believe the 14-30 is slightly different. So it might be worth getting a 14-30 to 14-50 adapter. I would also get the TeslaTap mentioned above. Those work great for Level 2 Tesla chargers. 14-30 to 14-50 Adapter
  9. Charging Stations to avoid? Worth creating a list?

    This list would be massive and would change every day. Much better off using Plugshare and reviewing the results of the latest checkins.
  10. Moab Trip in Two Weeks, Charging Options Look…Dismal

    I can't believe Moab wasn't top of the list for Rivian DC fast chargers. Green River has an EA charger. It's a little past the turn off to Moab (if coming from the east) but only 50 miles away. My recommendation would be to top off there and then use a couple of the Level 2 chargers in the...
  11. Colorado Checking In

  12. Banked power for those not wanting to upgrade electrical service?

    About ten years ago at our previous residence I upgraded our entire panel (replaced all breakers and the panel box) and went from 100amp to 150amp service. It was about $2000 at the time. So my guess is today that would run maybe $4000 max. Way cheaper than any decent battery system.
  13. Colorado Checking In

    Just received my plates and registration from Rivian. They saved me a trip to the DVM (that's worth like $5000 right there). I've honestly never had a dealership in Colorado handle the complete registration process for me.
  14. Trip Efficiency Calculation Includes Vampire Drain

    We've had our R1T for about a month but have only driven 700 miles. I noticed last week that our efficiency on "Trip B" which has the total number of miles since we took delivery seems rather poor. We have been averaging around 1.7 miles/kWh. Our "Trip A" had only about 300 miles on it and had...
  15. Unpleasant discovery 48 hours into Forest Green R1T ownership -- dent from the factory

    When I picked up my truck it was pouring rain outside, so I didn't get my first close inspection until a week later after washing my truck. I found a small dent (1" long) on the passenger side front fender. It could have come from the factory or it could have been a rock or something from the...
  16. A few thoughts & photos 24 hours into Forest Green R1T ownership

    Does your Cayenne have full leather interior? Compared to basic Porsche interiors I feel like Rivian is on par. Nicer in some ways like the Alcantara roof lining, and almost no hard plastics. I've had six Porsches in the past and was quite pleased with the fit and finish of our R1T. Much better...
  17. Rivian refuses to reinstate my preorder...

    This statement in Rivian's reply to your request is the problem: "There were two ways to be reinstated, either through a follow-up email we sent a handful of days after reinstatement was announced or by reaching out to us in Customer Service to express interest in reinstatement." In their view...
  18. Rivian refuses to reinstate my preorder...

    The second he cancelled his order, he was no longer a customer of Rivian. There is no legally binding reason for Rivian to reinstate any of the cancelled orders, and/or honor the original pricing. He was no longer a customer. They had fine print covering their but in the case of price increases...
