  1. R2 tires on Tire Rack 255/65/19, 255/60/20, 255/55-21

    Like to see all the options for the 20" wheels.
  2. Are There Alternatives to Rivian Level2 Charger?

    One thing to consider, when a charge is initiated, the max amp is drawn by the EV and it sustained for the x-hours. This can cause heat at the breaker (they have to be GFI per the NEC), if you can place that breaker away from all the other breakers. Secondly, if you use a 14-50, make sure it is...
  3. Borealis and Forest Green not available at R2 launch

    There are a lot of 'now' people in the feed. I was always told 'good things come to those who wait'. I am also a late reservation holder. I am waiting. I would not kick an LE out bed. But I am willing to wait for my version of perfection.
  4. Symphonic Carbon Fiber Roof for Rivian R1T -- by EV Smart Truck

    I remember my 1996 Ducati Monster had carbon parts that turned brown after a few summers in Sacramento, CA. The UV protection has come a long way. I am not a fan of the giant sun magnifying roof, nor are my dogs.
  5. R2 rear wiper in action -- potential issues or FUD?

    How are we going to keep the rear camera clean? I do not remember anyone saying there is a washer.
  6. Borealis and Forest Green not available at R2 launch

    At least we are getting answers. Ford promised a Bronco with a white top, only to take 5 years to deliver. Fookrs, I wanted a red with a white top. All they had was red with that junk cardboard coated top. I guess cardboard recycling is important.
  7. CEO RJ Scaringe gets $403M Pay Package

    Wow this is devolving...I wonder if it was like this when the rail roads were starting out. Just on a smaller, non-internet basis. Look at the rail roads now. Consolidate and almost a giant monopoly. Like MLS, NBA, NFL. All those good not for profit outlets. Sorry, I digress.
  8. Borealis and Forest Green not available at R2 launch

    From the pictures, Forest Green and LE Green look the same to me. Not a perfect match. Looks like LE Green is a wrapped Forest Green. Color is not something I see well. I can see the large difference between Granite Gray and Halfmoon Gray. It is stark. The Forest Green in person is a...
  9. Tour the R2 Interior through eyes of the Design Team

    The thing I like about Rivian design is the simplicity and the color pallet. I remember a similar video for the Ford Bronco when it came out and it was like a college design school project of how many textures, colors and fabrics could be applied to an interior of a truck. Then you realize, the...
  10. Don’t buy a Rivian and why?

    I have seen this play many times, I guess I am old. When I was younger and wealthier, I would buy bleeding edge tech. It did help I was in tech. Many a product was cool and buggy. I look back now and almost all of those companies are gone. My adoption/money helped move tech forward. The...
  11. R2 customer production started today! R2 configurator / ordering starts June

    Just be glad they are not Ford, their customer is the dealership and that is how Ford does the sales numbers. Most US car companies operate this way. It is refreshing to see Electric Car companies consider customers as the actual drivers of the car/truck.
  12. R2 customer production started today! R2 configurator / ordering starts June

    I read they will produce 20K R2s this year. That means I might get on in late 2027. Being a late reservation holder. I guess the people who made a reservation in the first 10min two years ago may get first refusal of an LE.
  13. Midnight Black R2 photos - looking sleek @ Block Party Denver

    I am curious about the seats, they look to be a dark gray and not black.
  14. Catalina Cove R2 Launch Edition on road (video) and non-Launch Edition in Rivian parking lot (pics)

    Dropped by the 'local' Rivian store(?) and they had the R2 paint colors, except for Catalina Cove. It was a rare sunny day here and was able to take out the Half Moon Gray and compare it to the current grey. The new color looks great, more natural dirt color to it compared to the really...
  15. Catalina Cove R2 Launch Edition on road (video) and non-Launch Edition in Rivian parking lot (pics)

    I really cannot figure out that color. Might me my monitor settings.
  16. Model Y mattress fits pretty perfect in R2 cargo area (photos)

    It is not a bad price considering the R1S Hest mattress is $359 for a single, $718 for a twin. https://hest.com/products/rivian-foamy-r1s I have seen these at the overland show and they are really nice. This is exciting: https://hest.com/collections/mattress/products/foamy-for-r2
  17. Interior Care Kit by Dr. Beasley's now in Rivian Gear Shop

    " Plant-based, cruelty-free " how can it be cruelty free and plant based? Plants have feeling, plants bleed.
  18. Evotrex-PG5 Electric RV 27-min Walkthrough: A Rolling Powerhouse

    @srkz I watched that and he keeps saying weight does not matter. The numbers keep showing more KW usage when towing vs not towing. He did say if you have a big flat surface, like a RV trailer, surface area matters more than weight. I am not sure that is a valid test, because surface area...
  19. Evotrex-PG5 Electric RV 27-min Walkthrough: A Rolling Powerhouse

    10k weight, wow looks like the R1T is the only one that can tow. considering the weight, you will be recharging about every 100 miles or so.
