There's been posts about this before, RAN will only bill against the primary credit card on file for the primary owner on record. If you are the owner of record, you need to link a credit card to your account, it doesn't matter who is driving. Some people had Rivian configured their spouse as...

If the rear went up, then it's probably a leak on the inside of a valve (so air leaked front to rear because the front has more weight on it, it didn't leak out of the system)

That's how it works, and I don't think it's any different without an adapter. You push the button on the charger and it stops charging and unlocks. That's true with CCS, and NACS. And I don't think you want anything else, it means if the charger catches fire a firefighter can't stop it? Is that...

I think one of the big reasons many of the EVs are adding a glass roof is actually for headroom. You skip the headliner and get 2" of headroom. This is important when you have a 6" thick skateboard under the floor, and when you're trying to reduce vehicle frontal cross sectional area for aero...

It should honestly fall under roadside. If you break down then roadside should cover whatever it takes to get to the SC, if the SC can't take you with the rooftop tent, then roadside should pay to remove it. That said, why the hell does the SC need to remove a tent for motor service? Opposite...

Yea, probably, but they said you can swap the range tires if you want. But why the hell are you buying Tri/Quad if you want range? Range requires eco tires, and eco tires will make most of the benefits of tri/quad evaporate.

The current R1T with 400mi range doesn't sell all that well. Adding a new $20k option for a very different pack design doesn't sound cost effective to get that 600mi R1T. In addition, they'd need a new cooling system and 800V charging to really take advantage of it. I think the better use of...

I guess what kind of performance hit are you looking at? The street tires will have a huge off road performance hit, the off road tires will have a huge on road performance hit. If you want both buy two sets of tires. I don't think you're getting < 3s 0-60 times with AT tires.

Yup, but I think they also said the processor is not new. Essentially, it's just a new GPU, and it's not clear if that GPU is part of the infotainment or part of a seperate ADAS module (I thought it was mentioned, but I don't see that). According to this article the GPU is in the "Autonomy...

Yes, it's a solvable engineering problem. It's solved by a bigger battery pack. And at the end of the day, quad will always be their halo product, the top of the line product, and they are not going to cut corners to make it cheaper. If you want a cheaper vehicle they have plenty of other...

That's a phone problem though, you can probably work around it with a rooted phone and fancy network configs. It might be possible to do it without a rooted phone, I'm not sure, but probably doesn't matter because it seems like they'll lock casting behind Connect+ anyways (meaning you can't use...

Battery C rates. Max is 143kWh (about the same as the old Large). 1025HP is 764kW. Add motor loss and stuff you're probably pulling 800kW from the battery. That's a C rate of 5.6, normally 1 is easy on the battery, 5C is pretty damn hard on the battery. I wouldn't be surprised if the quad gets a...

Diffusing sunlight would NOT reduce heat in the cabin, it needs to hopefully reflect IR, and to a lesser extend, absorb IR. I don't think we really know how well it does any of that, you can't tell via a normal picture, though I would say it seems to do more than just diffuse the light. I...

1. I'm sure we'll get answers soon enough. I don't think the early reviewers had enough time in sunny weather to review it. 2. Honestly, why would Rivian do that? If you want it buy a gen 2, that's what Rivian would say, it's a stupid waste of money for them to port HW back to gen 1, especially...

Gen1 is getting far more stuff than many of the people seem to think. From what's been released so far, the new one has more light controls, and more graphics power. I think that means that gen1 is basically gets everything except some of the light controls, and probably a significant amount...

Hey, I got compass yellow, and it's still the best color. I got the old pricing, got a great deal, and these new SW announcements are basically telling me they won't take anything away that I use. Yea, the gen2 has new stuff that I'd like, but I'd pick my R1S, at the price I paid, over this...

Uhh, duh? You think those lease incentives over the last 2 months have been out of the goodness of their heart? They want them gone because the new vehicles are more profitable. They also pulled a lot of stuff out and made them options (the new Driver+, Camp Speaker, Air Compressor, Tow hooks...

Yup, that's how they cut cost, old large is now the max. They bumped efficiency though to keep the same range. Looks like charging speed boosted with the smaller pack, so I think that's

They took it down Clearly the wrong time, violated the embargo. It, and a whole bunch more articles will be public after Rivian makes the announcement.
