This is what The Count gets for making a glib comment recently about "what are you people doing to kill your 12 volt batteries."
3-and-a-half-year-old 12 volt(s) is (are) moribund. Got the alert on the app. Immediately The Count dispatched staff to schedule replacement. Rivian mobile service is...
The Count recently had a regularly scheduled R1S service at the nearest service center. Several issues were found, some of which can be addressed by mobile service others will require a return trip to a service center* and a couple Rivian will not address**.

The Count is mandating that any Tesla driver assist including FSD strictly adhere to posted speed limits.

Last couple of updates required soft reboots to get GG to work again. this time, as some might say, is different... soft and hard reboot has not restored GG. Removed SSD and soft rebooted; nada.

The Count is surprised (not a common state of existence for him) there is so little out there for Rivians. The market for Grenadier is much smaller yet already there are a variety of aftermarket MOLLE panel options.
Has he just missed the retailers selling something for the S and T? It seems a...
general story on EVs with tidbits about the Chinese market. But a nice picture of a RAN station with a R1S and some discussion of RIVN.
Think Tesla is in trouble? Pity even more its wannabe EV rivals
