  1. 22" inch tires recommendations?

    I’ll report back on how they compare to the Pirellis on the pothole-rich roads near me. I hope when you say that they’ll work the suspension that I’m now lowering their lifespan.
  2. 22" inch tires recommendations?

    Just installed the Michelin Defender LTX M/S2 this morning. Discount tire did inflate to 65 psi. Now, the TPMS is not working so I need to go back, but that figure is according to the paperwork. I noticed the ride was a little bit better than the Pirellis.
  3. Fifth nail in tires in two years

    I don’t care about science, logic or rationality. I’ve had 5 punctures in less than 18 months on the R1S. None on my minivan in 8+ years and none on my MME (also electric) in 3+ years. I’m being targeted by misanthropes specifically targeting Rivian owners. Yet, they have some heart because...
  4. Rudy’s BBQ Tesla Charger available to non-Teslas?

    FWIW, I love me some Rudy's too, but there are plenty of other options. I get it that people aren't as happy with EA, EVGo and CP, but they are available. Also, the Tesla SC charge a premium for non-Teslas. I find Plugshare to be really helpful in locating options near my destination or along...
  5. New Black Crossbars from Rivian

    Thank you for the quick response. I will probably need to remember to lower the vehicle before entering the garages as the lowest one is about 6'7", I think. Thanks again!
  6. New Black Crossbars from Rivian

    Kenny, do you by chance know the total height with the crossbars and the 22" wheels? I am contemplating a set, but end up parking in garages in Houston on a semi-frequent basis. The vehicle may end up too tall with the crossbars. TIA!
  7. Software Update 2023.42.0 is out (⚠️ UPDATE: OTA fix rolling out today 11/15/23)

    This is my third electric vehicle (all since 2021 onward) and each of them have had some kind of bug for a period of time. For me, the vehicle is drive-able. I have a speedometer, gear selector, battery charge indicator and wiper control. Those are the big things. My Ford MME has been...
  8. EV Sportline R1S Sliders are installed photos & feedback

    I should get mine by the end of the year. I'm going to try the home install first. I am a little disappointed by its length. Get your mind out of the gutter, y'all!
  9. Cargo Liner - Any recommendations?

    Did you need to use adhesive to get that on there? I've been going back and forth and we really loved the canvasback liner we had in our Q5 back when we have dogs. We don't have dogs anymore, but kids. But, will have pups in the future. But, I don't like the fact that you need to apply...
  10. Side steps, running boards or anything else to help short people

    Please verify your own state laws as well as seek your own legal counsel. None of the following should be construed as legal advice. I do not believe a modification Iike this one with proper installation would void the warranty unless the installation or the part caused or led to the failure...
  11. Side steps, running boards or anything else to help short people

    I talked to a good shop here (Gulf Coast Auto Shield) that does PPF, ceramic and other auto-related things. They said they would install. I still would like to see what real owners actually have. I’m not seeing real owners with anything yet.
  12. Side steps, running boards or anything else to help short people

    The problem is that the wheelbase is different for the two and that’s why I’m looking for pictures from actual R1S owners to see what my options are. Plus, I am not handy so I would either screw-up three or four times before getting it right or would need to get this installed by someone.
  13. Side steps, running boards or anything else to help short people

    For those actual R1S owners, how many have installed any kind of assist device to help shorties hop into the SUV. My wife and my mom are both vertically challenged. My kids are spry so probably will not mind jumping into the back. If you have installed anything, please post some pictures. TIA.
  14. Solid reason for a cargo matt or liner - already broke a piece of the R1S

    So, on the other forum, there was a discussion about this as someone is making one that will cover the back area and the drop-down portion of the tailgate. It will still not cover the back of the third row. However, it probably would have prevented the damage from the original poster...
  15. R1S Shop access live with lots of inventory!

    I am not meaning to hijack this post. It is related to the topic. For those who made use of the shop to purchase there R1S, how much time was granted to you to work out a trade-in and also financing?
  16. ? R1T Red Alert: First Retail "Sellable R1T" - First Look Video!

    I do like that blue color. My specs on the R1S have gone from black to blue to red to yellow to black to blue. I need to see these colors in person. Luckily, my delivery is only late 2022 or early 2023 I assume. So, I have some time. But, it is exciting. I don’t care if it is 1 or 100...
  17. Mach-E placeholder for R1S

    Hi. Thanks for asking. I love it. I’m happy with the purchase and no buyer’s remorse other than I should’ve gotten $1k more on my trade-in, which is not a big deal in the grand scheme of things. I posted this on the Mach-E forum the other day. I’ve had it for a week and 500 miles. My main...
  18. Mach-E placeholder for R1S

    I did not try electrify America That’s a great color!
  19. Mach-E placeholder for R1S

    So, I took the plunge and got my first EV yesterday - the Mach-E Premium AWD. I got this as a placeholder for the R1S although if I love it, I will end up canceling. My issues for a newbie EV owner include range anxiety and the inability of the Ford Pass App to connect to EVgo only to realize...
  20. Lead foot driving

    This is helpful. I have deposits on both the R1S and the X. The X ends up being about $10k more expensive. I'm a late reservation holder for the R1S (4/2021). So, by the time my turn comes around, maybe Q3 of 2022, the max pack will be available for the R1S. Basically, with the max pack...
