  1. Do we have a Rivian Wave?

    Middle finger. My friend and I were in his R1T and looking for a parking space at Home Depot... And there it was, another R1T and he was starting to back out. We waited so we could have the spot. As he finished backing up he was giving us this big stupid grin and gave us the thumbs-up and...
  2. Dual Motor Options Now Available in R1T / R1S Online Configurator

    Meh... No point in picking dual motor with the R1S for us pre 3/22 priced people... $500 savings to lose drive modes and gain < 30 miles of range, which is do-able with conserve mode or sensible driving anyway. I'm thinking I'm still waiting for max pack, or will see what the R2 offers. Went...
  3. First Dual Motor R1T appears in R1 Shop!

    Ford's weakness is software. This is showing with the Lightning and some of their update issues and little features that should be there but are not and various glitches... That aside, the Lightning is a great truck. I've had mine 8 months now and have put almost 9K miles on it. And while...
  4. Did Yeti Just Come Out With Launch Green?

    REALLY? When did that happen? And somehow I missed it. Initially they just had black ones and white ones. I have a white one. Somehow I missed it. I guess now my question is just how close are these to the actual paint colors because it says they're closely related.
  5. Did Yeti Just Come Out With Launch Green?

    I suggested this to a few people at Rivian way back when and mentioned it here on the forums a time or two... Rivian missed a real opportunity with their gear shop by not offering their water bottles in the actual paint colors. Something tells me they would have sold a whole lot more of them...
  6. First Dual Motor R1T appears in R1 Shop!

    There are lots of outstanding orders. Some are people who have delayed delivery intentionally, but most of them are people waiting for the max pack or if they're wanting the quad-motor large pack, they're probably in an area that isn't well served by Rivian service and not being prioritized...
  7. First Dual Motor R1T appears in R1 Shop!

    We price-protected people can change these configurations for the R1T in our configurators. It's the R1S that we don't yet have options to select anything other than quad-motor large pack. We are supposed to get those options for the R1S configurator sometime s00n... And yes, the R1 Shop...
  8. Tesla FSD coming to Rivian?

    I wouldn't call it a joke. It's actually damn impressive as to what it can do and the approach they're taking with their neural net. It has the most potential of any current system out there. That said, yes, even in its latest form, it will kill you if you don't pay attention the whole time...
  9. Need help with home charger install

    As others have said, get a second opinion. I don't doubt you have that amount of load on your panel, but at the same time it seems a bit high. I have a 4200sq. ft. home with 200A service. Two AC units, double electric ovens, steam shower/sauna, all the usual lights, TVs, etc.. And I'm already...
  10. Where and how would you sell?

    Well, not really sure there was ever much of a market for these at $125K, regardless of what offers you got at the time. Only actually seen one or two of the very first ones reportedly sell at that level. If you sell, be prepared to take a loss. 70~80 % of current MSRP is a realistic...
  11. Long term owners with Ocean Coast interiors: How is it holding up?

    Yeah, you don't want to put any coatings or conditioners on these vinyl seating surfaces... A friend of mine owns a detail shop and that's what he says.. The seats clean up just fine with a soft cloth (preferably microfiber) some warm water and a tiny bit of dish soap. Occasionally if you get...
  12. 240V 30 amp charging from my F150

    Yep, you have to set the truck to charge at no more than 24 Amps with that plug adapter. If you use one of the mobile chargers out there that automatically adjust charge rates based on which plug attachment is installed, like the Tesla mobile adapter or a couple of the third party ones out...
  13. Price locked customers will soon be able to

    Yeah, everything you just posted is for the R1T. As a price-locked pre- 3/22 person I originally had an R1T max pack configured. I can choose all these options and see my special pricing. Switching to an R1S build, the only option in my configurator up until now is the quad motor large pack...
  14. Felt weird going for inspection.

    CO used to have them! They did away with the annual inspections in the late '80s, maybe early '90s, I don't recall exactly when. I guess they just figured a basic safety inspection along with an emissions test was good enough. And traffic cops here ignore almost everything anyway. And even...
  15. Unauthorized Data Collection from TESLA chargers?

    I think what you mean to say is that Rivian vehicles currently do not share their VIN via CCS. Because the Plug N Charge, AutoCharge and other similar standards are all based on the ISO 15118 EV charging comms protocol, which uses multiple factors for identifying and authenticating a vehicle...
  16. Unauthorized Data Collection from TESLA chargers?

    Tesla superchargers and the NACS standard use the exact same signaling protocols as CCS1 / J1772 and the Plug N Charge standard. So if you look through the specs for any of this stuff, you can see that the chargers identify vehicles based on VIN. Data exchanged between the vehicles can contain...
  17. 70% SOC/charge for "daily" vs. 80%

    Er... I thought Rivian recommends charging to between 70 and 90 % for daily use. Favoring more toward 70% if you typically don't need all the range. 50% target and leave plugged in for long term storage. Tesla and Ford both recommend 90% for daily use. So does Hyundai. I think KIA is...
  18. Help-I rented a Tesla!

    Yes, there is a wireless button on the handle of the charger cord that will tell the car to pop its charge port door -- if the car is unlocked. Has a very short range so rarely triggers anything but the closest car. There is an icon on the center screen that does this as well and the charge...
  19. Lots of R1S's spotted being delivered to Minneapolis Service Center today!

    Vehicles shipped from the factory still count for something even if they haven't been delivered. All positive in the stockholder reports. That and it just seems as if R1S production is hitting a nice stride, just as R1T production did several months ago. And sure, they'll try to deliver as...
  20. Weekly Rivian Responds: Details on NACS, Spare Tires, Driver+, and More! [6/27/2023]

    Yeah... even with NACS becoming the standard (all but certain now), I don't see a point in retrofitting existing vehicles or even rushing to incorporate NACS into new vehicles until it makes sense to roll it into standard production. Doesn't matter which port the vehicle has, half the chargers...
