I find if I hook my index finger on my left hand into the latch on the left side of the door it can be lifted easily about i/2 way. At that point, I remove my finger as I have put the heel of my right hand just below the top edge. From here I slam the door closed with a thrust of the heel of...
I have pushed for a clock on the driver's display as well. It is not so much the size of the font but the off-axis location. When you move your eyes the tendency is to migrate in that direction, the longer the look the more the movement. This is the idea behind heads up displays. At least...
Just out of curiosity, see if it has any effect on the wind noise that comes from the side windows. I have had the glass and trim replaced twice and it still could use something. Maybe this will further limit the air infiltration with a different flow. Thanks.
As for permits, seven of us went on the website Tuesday for slots Wednesday. They opened it up at 8am and we all logged in then. There were a total of 7 permits we got for our motorcycles with around 17 still up for grabs. The day of there are an additional 25 permits open but you must pick...
Looks like you were on White Rim three days before us. I wish I had run into you out there, it is spectacular scenery. The whole time out there on the bike, I was wondering how the R1T would do and what sort of charge I would have at a given point. Thanks for sharing.
I just got back Saturday from an off road motorcycle trip around Moab/Canyonlands. I was very dissapointed to have only see two R1Ts the entire week we were there, and both in the town of Moab itself, none on the trails or back roads.
I went a different route. My R1T came with 20" and I bought a set of take off 21" to drive most of the year - for extra range. To get up our very steep, long driveway when it is snowy and icy, studs are the way to go. I bought a stud gun, drilled my 20" tires, and studded them. They were...
Absolutely! To do a quick calculation of a location some distance out you usually quickly glance down, pick up the odometer reading and add the distance to it in your head. This is accomplished while your eyes are on the road. With the Rivian, you first look off axis to the center screen, you...
I scuffed the paint surfaces with Scotch-Brite. I masked the top first and painted the undercarriage. Next I masked off the sides and painted the bed all satin black. Lastly, I masked the wheels, glass, lights, and decals (Rivian and R1T), then air brushed the color portion of the truck...
The painting is the easy part. It is the masking of all the tiny details that takes the time. I airbrushed mine forest green to match my truck just for fun.
I really want a way to connect a rear aux brake light for times I have the roof top tent or the motorcycle on the hitch hauler. Adventure items that obscure the OEM brake lights are a safety problem. If we had a setting so we could plug in an aux light to the rear trailer harness WITHOUT...
