  1. Questions for people who have switched from Tesla to Rivian [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS / NO ELON DISCUSSIONS]

    I’m currently leasing a Model 3 now. I paid the extra to drive 15K a year. So far I’ve stayed on track, but I’d like to go on a longer trip this Summer. If you have a buyout and plan on using it you don’t have to worry about mileage. If you want to upgrade in two or three years you’ll have to...
  2. Questions for people who have switched from Tesla to Rivian [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS / NO ELON DISCUSSIONS]

    Thanks for posting this. Like you I have a Tesla (leasing until 2027), but I want to get an Rivian instead. I’m currently driving a Model 3, which was really cheap to lease back in 2024. One of the things I’m worried about is how expensive it will be to lease an R2. I originally wanted to wait...
  3. Hit n run… fix or total??

    I’m sorry this happened to you. Was Gear Guard not activated? No video cameras in the local area?
  4. R1S frunk cooler

    I also asked a similar question about the R2 frunk and barely anyone replied. The R2 frunk seems really shallow and can probably only hold a duffle bag or some groceries. I saw this Coleman Party Stacker Cooler that would fit, but they don’t sell them anymore. The R2 sub-trunk seems deep, but...
  5. RAN reaches 1,000+ charging stalls (40% YoY increase)

    This is great news. Hopefully their prices come down someday. Is that the Rivian price or the non-Rivian price? IONNA is making headway and Walmart is installing their own charging network now, too. We’re going to be spoiled for choice in the next few years.
  6. AT&T brings 5G connectivity to Rivian R2

    Rumor has it that Tesla is contemplating ditching AT&T and going with Starlink, if they can manage to shrink it even more than the Starlink Mini and incorporate it into the car.
  7. R2 Favorite Features - What's Yours?

    I’m going to say the rear drop glass. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve farted in my vehicle, my wife starts complaining, and then I try to air it out to no avail because opening the side windows just blows it around in the backseat like a STANKNADOā„¢. Having that rear drop glass is going to...
  8. Mark Rober teases R2 modification

    With all of those pixels I thought it might be a giant inflatable squirrel penis that shoots glitter at porch pirates. šŸ† ✨ šŸ“ā€ā˜ ļø Maybe Rober is trying to troll all of the pickups that are still driving around with truck nuts? 🄜
  9. Service Center Kinda Sucks?

    That manual release procedure for the frunk sounds good and I’d try resetting the vehicle as well.
  10. Looks like the Main Stream Media is starting to wake up - and realize the R2 is a home run!

    That new Prius would make a killer EV, if Toyota wanted to make EVs that sell well.
  11. Looks like the Main Stream Media is starting to wake up - and realize the R2 is a home run!

    Yeah, I definitely identify more with Rivian. There are so many blob-like crossovers out there. Everything basically looks alike and they’re all the same 4 neutral colors: black, white, silver, or gray.
  12. Looks like the Main Stream Media is starting to wake up - and realize the R2 is a home run!

    I think you mean you can’t stand Elon. Tesla is a company that employs over 100,000 people, including many talented hardware and software engineers. They don’t all think and act like the CEO, just like any other employee and their boss. In fact a large group of employees wrote an open letter to...
  13. Why stock getting hammered last few days?

    I think it was because they announced the specific delivery date rather than the vague Spring timeline. I hope it goes to $20-$25 a share by the end of the year.
  14. R2 Frunk & S-trunk Dims - Which Coolers Fit?

    Does anyone know the dimensions of that (the sub-trunk)? It seems somewhat weirdly shaped with the spare tire cutout, like deep, but narrow.
  15. R2 as our only car

    My wife convinced me to keep my ICE car when I leased an EV for the first time. I ended up selling the ICE car a few months later. The EV was leagues ahead of it in every way. Although we don’t know the reliability of the R2 yet, Rivian has learned a great deal from designing and manufacturing...
  16. R2 Frunk & S-trunk Dims - Which Coolers Fit?

    According to the internet it’s only 12ā€ deep. That sounds way too shallow to be useful for anything. I noticed the inside of the hood has a slightly concave indention.
  17. R2 Frunk & S-trunk Dims - Which Coolers Fit?

    Since Rivian just released the outer dimensions of the R2 today (6/2/26) I thought I’d ask about the inner dimensions, namely the frunk and sub-trunk. The R2 frunk looks especially shallow. Does anyone know if a cooler will fit in there? Here are some YETI cooler dimensions in honor of Gary the...
  18. Interior 3D view now in R2 configurator

    I think that’s going to be possible by the end of the year and whether you’re a current Rivian owner, where you are in line, proximity to a service center, etc. So many factors in getting this vehicle. Something tells me Launch Green will eventually become Rivian Green, but maybe be offered on...
  19. Interior 3D view now in R2 configurator

    I’d like to see them lean into a kind of driftwood vibe. Maybe on a higher trim. The faux wood panel on Teslas was phased out, but I hope Rivian keeps offering real wood. Something about it paired with the tech really works. It’s retro and modern, adventurous and refined. It really sets Rivian...
  20. Interior 3D view now in R2 configurator

    Ah, I see that now. Pictures and even videos can be deceiving sometimes. Can’t wait to see the R2 in person soon. I think I’m going to hit up the new Fishers, Indiana spot.
