Great idea to drive a more recently built model! I received my R1S on the last day of June 2023 and I haven't noticed any panel gap issues on mine. It can take a bit to adjust to the throttle mapping but after 1,800 miles it is second nature. As far as the way they drive the Tesla models are...

I just did a trip to OBX from Maryland and had the same issue. Also after it picked a charger I couldn't click the charger on the map to see any information about that location. So far I'm not impressed with the Nav for these long trips. It kept wanting to go to chargers that only had 2-4...

I have all the voice features disabled on my phone and did not setup Alexa in the car. My parents have Alexa devices all through the house which drives me crazy as even when you deactivate them they seem to reactivate all the time. I understand where you are coming from and have had...

I get where you are coming from and this is one the reasons we didn't get a Tesla years ago. When my wife asked questions they told her the Model X recorded all conversations in the car and sent everything back to Tesla (not sure if true). This caused her to freak out and wonder what kind of...

Welcome to the forum. I read through everything written and I think I can sum up a few things for you that might help you understand the price and value. Especially as I was looking at a Bronco as my next vehicle I didn't order the vehicle right away as I wasn't sure of build quality until I...

Hi Everyone! Baltimore, MD here!

I did not know they read low I probably should double check the pressure with a gauge as they were a few PSI high according to the TPMS last I checked.

I think modular systems would be good and bad. I could see manufacturers going the early cell phone route of wanting a module upgrade every year or planned obsolescence of the modules. It would be nice 5 years down the line to pop in a newer better module without having to buy a new car or go...

I tend to replace my tires as soon as one gets to the wear bar. I know everyone has different tolerance but as someone who has had friends in accidents in the rain. Replacing the vehicle is more expensive than getting 1,000-2,000 less miles on a set of tires.

I just got mine and I have mine around 3-6 with my phone but the Bluetooth volume (on my phone) is up all the way. In my old car if I had that turned down I would be cranking the speakers up into the 20s. It could be they have the phone volume turned way down so they crank the car volume. If...

On a call I had with customer service they said post march 2022 would start getting access to the R1S shop next month. As others have said saying your are flexible with colors and options could help you get in more quickly.

Thanks for replying! I agree about the acceleration lag on the Ascent I think it is a combo of the CVT and is bit longer due to the Turbo. I'm worried about the sunshade for the sunroof as I almost never open the shade in the Ascent. Only other thing I'm a bit worried about is lack of...

I'm still waiting for my R1S but currently have a 2019 Subaru Ascent. How was the move from the Ascent to the Rivian?

Haha I figured Brookyn would be a horrible place for a test drive. I have been trying to grab one in DC but all the R1S times have been booked up. Granted I keep debating on switching to an R1T so maybe I should just grab one of those slots.

I live in northern MD near PA and right now the First Drive is linked to Brooklyn SC which I haven't done yet because I have no desire to make the trip up and back which will cost hundreds no matter how I travel. I have tried to get one closer but no open timeslots. Are you saying I could add a...

If I had to guess the confusion comes from the fact you have the middle row and middle seat. The Middle seat in the middle row I don't think was ever heated and I'm not sure if any vehicles that have a bench seat heat the middle (most have captains chairs). I can't imagine they would get rid of...

I agree I have captains chairs in my Ascent and would prefer a bench now that we have had it a few years. Everyone still folds the seat forward to get into the third row. I also have two kids and when we go camping and bring a friend they are in the third row which lowers cargo space a lot...

I was hoping to have it by July for my beach trip but I guess it will have to wait till next year.

I agree this vehicle matches up really favorably with the the 3 row midsize SUVs and I would like a comparison to those. These include the Ford Explorer, Chevy Traverse, Subaru Ascent, Honda Pilot. I think the Tahoe or Expedition are full size SUVs and are much larger. I currently own a Subaru...
