  1. Rivian HANDS FREE ADVANCED DRIVER ASSISTANCE SYSTEM is coming 2025 + EYES OFF SYSTEM in 2026 -- Per CEO RJ SCARINGE

    I'll believe it when I see it. And an eyes-off system...good luck. Only Mercedes even has an SAE Level 3 system right now and it's not available in the USA yet...and even then it's extremely limited in where it can be used. Remember, Rivian also sold the Gen1 with claims that its hardware was...
  2. 2024.51.0 spotted

    Looks like 2024.51.1 is now in testing per data on ElectraFi. Guess they found some bugs they needed to squash.
  3. A2Z NACS extension cable for supercharging (and AC)

    When I did charge testing on my truck it has never pulled 500A for more than 15 min. The ramp down to 140 kW or less took longer though, so it may still have an impact. I've done probably 25 charges at Tesla sites so far and only once have I had anyone even say anything negative about my being...
  4. The preconditioning myth

    The climate schedule definitely warms the battery. We've been in the negative temps at night the past couple days and with a climate schedule set, I've been leaving the house in the morning with a battery around 50F. Leave the truck sit without the climate schedule and the battery gets much...
  5. R1T Ignored Charge Limit

    It's not just the app. I changed charging schedule in the truck last night and it ignored it.
  6. 2024.47 update - Charging limit not being held when set in truck sometimes

    Similar issue, but just last night I tried changing my charge schedule to start at 11p so it would complete the charge by morning. It showed in the truck that it took the change, but the charge didn't start until the previously selected 2am and the charge did not complete in time. I really...
  7. R1T Ignored Charge Limit

    Known issue from the last update. Really hoping it's fixed in 2024.51 as the charging schedule is also broken.
  8. Jack stands?

    Just want to reiterate that this method works well with the HF dolly to move the wheels around and get them in place, etc. No more lifting 80+ lbs of wheel/tire by hand! Without a good jackstand though it means you need to use the spare and move it around a few times to do a tire rotation...
  9. At what price will you exit RIVN?

    Being net positive would be nice. Pie in the sky would be when it grows enough to pay for a nice chunk of an upgraded R1. What's the phrase that got tossed around a few years ago...diamond hands.
  10. 2024.47 update - Charging limit not being held when set in truck sometimes

    Really hope that 2024.51 fixes this. I've experienced this issue several times over the past couple weeks and it's really annoying. Both the charge limit and the charging schedule seem to be impacted.
  11. Motortrend Gen2 2025 R1T Tri Max Review

    In Rivian's case it's actually the opposite problem, otherwise you wouldn't be able to get into a state where you've got the throttle matted to the floor and the truck sits there doing nothing. What many of us off-roaders would love to see is some mode that would allow the vehicle to apply...
  12. Motortrend Gen2 2025 R1T Tri Max Review

    My profile picture is exactly the sort of obstacle I'm referring to. Typical eroded rock wall obstacle found on plenty of trails here in Colorado. A Toyota with ATRAC and no lockers will walk right up without issue...I took my previous 4Runner up it completely stock and one of the local Toyota...
  13. Edmunds' 2025 Gen2 R1T Dual Motor vs. Tacoma TRD Pro Off-Road Comparison

    Yup...but the Rivian also weighs nearly 2000 lbs more than the Taco and it of course has a rear locker that the R1T doesn't have.
  14. Motortrend Gen2 2025 R1T Tri Max Review

    Absolutely. R1 is an incredible package and no one should expect it to compete with a dedicated off-roader. It's a literal jack-of-all-trades and master of none...exactly why I bought it. I didn't care for the compromises my built 4Runner made in day to day use to make it good off-road and...
  15. Driver+/Autonomy cannot be trusted in heavy traffic – just got into an accident with a slow merging truck

    Sadly, this is why Level 2 ADAS is problematic. It requires constant attention by the driver, but it's often "good enough" that the majority of users trust the system to behave as-intended and as a result pay less attention than they should. If the ADAS isn't good enough, people won't use...
  16. The Verge - ChargePoint is doing something about all the EV charger cable-cutting crooks

    Alarm system implies the charger would at least have the ability to know that a cable was cut/severely damaged so it could be marked inoperative in their system/apps.
  17. Motortrend Gen2 2025 R1T Tri Max Review

    Tell me you haven't wheeled it much without telling me you haven't wheeled it much. Fly two wheels and it won't go anywhere...very common situation on a rocky trail. Gen1 motors also have lower stall torque and overheat easily on obstacles. It still does well in a lot of situations, but it...
  18. Motortrend Gen2 2025 R1T Tri Max Review

    Might be a tweener, but it has more performance than the Gen1 Quad and the same efficiency as the dual-motor on the highway (in Conserve...which acts like All-Purpose on the Dual). Depending on your needs, the Tri is actually the best option. You still get torque vectoring at the rear because...
  19. 2024.51.0 spotted

    Probably because they seem overly-aggressive in unloading stuff that hasn't been used recently. I watched that video a few days ago as well as the one on the Gen2 hardware changes. IIRC, they indicated that the infotainment computer for Gen2 was more or less the same as the Gen1 computer...
