  1. Regen Braking for Beginners.... I have questions

    I don’t know if this topic has been covered on the forum yet but this seemed like the best spot. Does anyone know whether the the brake lights are activated when you take your foot off the “go” or “exhilarator” pedal? I believe there are now a reported 4 levels of regenerative braking (“RB”)...
  2. First Song You'll Play In Your New Rivian?

    Too easy. Ironically, if I have to pick mine up in Normal, I’ll pretty much have to drive I-55 back to Chicago.
  3. Rivian Overland Expo 2021- CANCELLED

    I visit Phoenix from Chicago monthly and I am due for a trip that week. I may extend and do the Friday day pass. It would be great to share my Raffinity for this truck with someone besides my wife.
  4. Official Video: How Does it Feel to Drive a Rivian (Featuring Preorder Holders)

    I think the technical term for this communications approach is neverending foreplay.
  5. Invited to see the F150 Lightning tomorrow (8/5) and meet with Ford's General Manager of EV's

    You are absolutely You are absolutely correct DuckTruck! I rushed that calculation for sure.
  6. Invited to see the F150 Lightning tomorrow (8/5) and meet with Ford's General Manager of EV's

    I know there could be some other factors here but doing some quick math, 148 miles of range and 57% of battery remaining would equate to 344 miles of range. Perhaps that is what you get without (or a reduced) 1,000 payload.
  7. Rivian welcomes some early preorder holders at the plant in Normal, IL

    …so about that blue in these photos. I know Rivian Blue can look a little different in various lighting but the darker blue in the one picture is waaaay darker than I thought it could be. I can’t imagine they would have made a darker one (and let us see it before LG) and I am just thinking this...
  8. Camp Kitchen

    I believe the decision to put the stove/sink on the forward side is due to the Dometic induction stove existing dimensions and the geometry of the gear tunnel. The slanted vertical face of the front of the gear tunnel follows the incline of the rear seats. The back of the gear tunnel is vertical...
  9. Adventure vs Explore Trim - can't decide

    Main drivers for me are ventilated seats and definitely the powered tonneau. I prefer to not have to stick the manual cover panels in the gear tunnel (I know they “could” go elsewhere) and have them taking up space. Plus, I want my truck ASAP so LE it is.
  10. Real Rivian Photos & Videos

    Thanks for posting @kanundrum. I am not an expert on assembly lines but nice to see some robots in their final location. Anyone more experienced able to decipher if that appears to be a truck in legit production or a staged photo? Maybe a pre-production model testing the robots? Also, in the...
  11. Rivian Service Centers / Retail Locations List / Other Facilities (Pics & Updates)

    I don’t know if I have missed it but has anyone heard/seen anything about a Chicagoland Service Center? I am aware of the showroom.
  12. Real Rivian Photos & Videos

    Ok, so I am coming out of stealth mode for this “find.” There has been a lot of mystery around actual photos of limestone. I think this picture is it. I believe the prior comment about it being a wrap was referring to the R1 you see behind the driver’s side of the truck through the window...
