  1. I miss having a full size truck

    F-150L = F-150 Lightning….both use electricity and pretty darn close in terms of efficiency.
  2. I miss having a full size truck

    Except a F-150L could be had for cheaper and be just about the same in terms of efficiency. You jus t have to accept the fact that you’d be a grown man feeling like a 5 year old when climbing into the bed. That part I do not miss. I truly do not understand why most trucks nowadays need the bed...
  3. I miss having a full size truck

    Exterior wise, yes. It’s only 6” longer. Interior wise I came from a Ridgeline (Gen1) and it was an easier transition to the Lightning than it was to the R1T when it comes to being a family car.
  4. Rivian service center messed up (fixed!)

    Maybe I’m a jerk, but the car clearly should not be driven in that state. As such, April - 4 months is not an acceptable resolution timeframe. This isn’t a panel gap here. You don’t have an operable vehicle right now. I would give it one more try but then I would probably submit a complaint to...
  5. I miss having a full size truck

    I only had a full sized truck for one month prior to getting the R1T, but that’s enough to make me miss the size. I went through the rain situation a couple days ago. It was a medium sized/light box. Too tall to fit in the frunk, too tall to fit under the cover. Normally I’d throw the seats up...
  6. Need new tires replacement on R1T after 16K miles

    This has been largely my experience. My Teslas average a new set of tires every other year, and they switch between summer and winter tires. Every 4 years is a new set of snows.
  7. Is an R1T mid gate a possibility?

    I have one of these and a fresh box of blades. I can promise that when I’m done that climate controls from the cabin will have an effect on the gear tunnel and the bed. I can not promise the tonneau will be operational. Nor that the cabin will be waterproof, wind proof, noise isolated, or...
  8. What max range calculations is everyone getting?

    Despite the option to reset history, it never changes. My lifetime average is 2.04mi/kWh which would imply 275 miles of max range but my numbers are exactly as you have above. I don’t know how I feel about the range estimates in the truck. On the one hand the GoM is extremely accurate...
  9. Is this the tire we've been looking for? Falken Ziex A/S 275/60R20 rated 116H XL

    I’ve used a number of Falken tires. Like any brand there are ones that are good and ones to avoid. I haven’t used the specific tire you linked. In (very) general thought, the Falkens I have used wore quickly, were stiffer, but typically a good balance of performance and value. I have not had...
  10. Would you buy a Rivian R1T bed Cap / Topper ?

    Is it feasible from a design perspective? Just thinking, it would be great if we can have a locking bed cap using the rails. But you’d have to clear the roof spoiler and the side aero wings.
  11. New Jersey WTB 21" spare wheel

    I've got one for sale, brand new - picked up a 22" spare to go with my current wheels instead.
  12. Roomy exit / entry is awesome for me!

    To be fair my Tesla does the same. Idk if later version implemented more sensors but mine can’t tell who’s driving, even if we each have our respective fobs.
  13. Roomy exit / entry is awesome for me!

    It’s a bigger problem with PAAK and proximity recognition I think. My other driver uses the fob and it only has an issue if I approach/enter first.
  14. Poll: How often do you use the Camp Speaker?

    Where’s the option for I forgot I even had a camp speaker?
  15. This youtube review points out R1S cabin interior noise?

    I feel the Rivian is comparable to my Tesla in terms of noise, the difference seems to the type of noise and where the noise comes from though. That said, neither are silent luxury cruisers that isolate you from the world. The R1T has on more than one occasion made me wonder if it’s really...
  16. Alex on Autos' Follow-Up After Selling His R1T

    Im not. I was saying it’s impressive that you’re in Cincy, a cold region and not experience loss
  17. Alex on Autos' Follow-Up After Selling His R1T

    In Cin, OH too? That would be surprising. Mine is losing roughly 6-7% overnight, comparable to my Model S and Model X.
