  1. PA to VT NYE Ski Run

    I agree that having a RAN somewhere in southern NH or down Route 3 near the Lowell area would be nice. I live near exit four off 89 in VT and go to Boston monthly for work. There's excellent charging at the Rockingham Park Telsa Supercharger in Salem, NH, and the Tesla Supercharger in...
  2. First Big Test of SuperCharger Access Has Arrived

    We just did a 500 mile round trip for a family Thanksgiving dinner on Wednesday, since some members had to work today. On the way there on Tuesday the RAN in Holyoke, MA was wide open, just one other car there. On the way home today the RAN in Brattleboro, VT was the same. Only one other vehicle.
  3. New Rivian Key Fob 2.0 w/ Ultra-Wideband (UWB) passed by FCC

    Just today I couln't get the truck to go into gear even though I had PaaK and my card. I had to call my wife and have her drive me the FOB.
  4. New Bolt-on MagSafe Phone Mount with Plug-and-play hidden power wire! - EV Sportline

    I just finished the installation. Thanks for the great video instructions; they are very easy to follow. One concern is the plastic standoff with the ball spins in the bracket. I haven't seen anything about it, so maybe it's just mine, but the phone moves too much radially for my liking. The...
  5. Rivians in hot weather -- experience / tips?

    Thanks, right there in front of me and I hadn't noticed.
  6. Rivians in hot weather -- experience / tips?

    Vent the windows via the app? Is that a thing?
  7. Maine vehicle inspection

    I think one way to check if the inspection station has experience with Rivian is to ask if they have the required jack pucks. I know in Vermont part of the inspection requires putting the truck on a lift. Not sure if Maine is the same.
  8. Received an email after I picked up my R1T saying I have 1 year of free RAN charging?

    I'm in the same boat...err, truck. But they could make it all up to me by taking care of the mystery summer wiper swipe. Love smearing those hot splattered bug guts all over the windshield randomly when I put the truck in drive.
  9. Phone battery drain

    I'm getting low battery messages from my phone, a Pixel 7 Pro, halfway through the day. I'm referring to the phone battery. 53% of the battery is being used by the rivian app. This is something new, anybody else seeing it?

    New England Rivian Group

    Susan and I went into Montpelier last night for dinner at Hugo's. We were excited to be the third Rivian to park within sight of each other. Ours is the dark one. The third one is behind mine across the street. I still get stupid excited when I see another Rivian on the road.

    Last night Susan and I went into Montpelier for dinner at Hugo's. When we parked out front we were excited to be the third R1T to park within sight of each other. Ours is the dark one. The third one is across the street behind mine. I still get stupid excited when I see another Rivian on the road.
  12. Any downside to using the maximum regenerative setting?

    I just failed inspection in VT and am heading to Chelsea for brake work this week. The service center person said they are having this trouble in northern New England. It seems they could, at some interval, via an over-the-air update, use the actual brakes as opposed to regen, as they do now if...

    @AdamEk, I check the outside surface of the rotors from time to time because I primarily use regen for braking. All of the outward-facing rotor surfaces look good, and according to the inspection, only one of the inward-facing rotor surfaces looks bad, suggesting that it's not normal wear and...

    Failed VT State Inspection at 1 year/20k miles. The inner face of the right rear brake rotor is rusty, which is a reason to fail vehicle inspection. The inspection was done at VT Tire and Service in Montpelier. Chelsea Service Center has me slotted in this week, but suggests this is not a...

  16. Rivian Preheating for Planned Drives - Does NOT Precondition The Battery (Update it does if plugged in?)

    I'm on Version 2023.50.01 in a 2023 R1T and using Android App version 2.5.1 on a Pixel 8 Pro phone. Sometimes preconditioning works and sometimes it doesn't. I've only attempted it while plugged in, so that's not the issue. I thought maybe it was only working when I set the schedule on the dash...
  17. Software Update 2023.50 -- Scheduled battery preconditioning & other useful improvements!

    If this was a dream it'd have Android Auto. It does have everything else on my list though. Very excited for scheduled preconditioning!
  18. Grumpy Rivian drivers no wave

    I think it's because I'm stupidly excited and happy with my R1T that I wave like a teenager when I see another Rivian. The lack of reaction has bummed me out. Is your Rivian really just another vehicle? Are you really too cool for giddy excitement? Am I still just as big a geek as ever? Oh well...
  19. Electri-fry America... results in Critical Battery Error message and my R1T bricked

    I wanted to send an update to the group regarding this episode. I picked my truck up on Saturday, October 21. They'd had it ready since Thursday, but I couldn't drive down until Saturday. They'd replaced the 12 V batteries, the HV battery, and a central gateway module. Rivian said they can't...
