  1. 20" Inch Michelin Defender LTX Platinum tires review update!

    Anyone out there looking for new tires, these are for you. Michelin released these in Nov 2023. If you're not going rock crawling or doing serious off roading, then spend the money on these. I now have almost 4,000 miles on my 285/60/20 tires and can honestly say these are phenomenal! Yes...
  2. Just applied ceramic coating to my R1T

    With the flat front, Rivians are susceptable to rock chips and other issues. I finally had it done and I am very happy. Entire truck done for $1,000 by Broche here in Sarasota/Bradenton area. (941) 565 2688
  3. Arby's run turns out badly for a Sandhill Crane.

    On my way back from Arby's, it was dusk, I saw a car pulled over to the side with hazzards flashing. As I approached, I saw something in the road right in front of me, I swerved but was sure I hit it. I immediately did a Uturn, and saw a Sandhill Crane in the opposite line being hit by the...
  4. Problems problems, all these damn problems! Let's hear from those who've had little / no issues! ?️

    Yeah, like most, I have my problems, luckily my Rivian isn't one of them! I am the happy owner of a 2022 R1T with just over 20,000 miles on it. Yes, I have read about everybody's issues, but I have been trouble free with my Rivian VIN xxx004911! Seems like most threads are about some issue...
  5. 20" Michelin Defender LTX Platinum Tires review -- For all of you thinking about a 20" tire! Your wait is over!

    I recently bought a set of EV Sportline 20" wheels. I started looking for a tire that would look good and ride good. I opted for a cheap set of 285/60/20 tires from China, no doubt. Cost me all of about $800, and they looked great! Come to find they were noisy. I realized that a big knobbly...
  6. Dead Battery. What to do?

    I seldom take trips, and I charge 99.99% at home, using a Tesla wall charger with an adapter. I have very little experience with remote charging. The once or twice I have done it, it has always been an issue. It's either been raining hard, or the sun was at an angle where you couldn't read the...
  7. New world record speed by Rimac Nevera!

    I don't know if you guys saw this. Rimac Nevera, the $2.5M EV supercar just set a Guinnes world record going backwards! Yes, backwards it did 275 KPH or 171 MPH! Unbelievable speed, faster than 98% of all cars out there. YouTube it.
  8. Are you guys watching this? EV's in decline!

    Recent YouTube videos and general public news, shows that EV sales are on the decline. Tesla is sitting with a record surplus of cars, and have drastically cut pricing on all their models. I believe that you can now get a new entry level Model 3, for less than $20,000, factoring in the $7,500...
  9. Rivian made in Transylvania?

    So, as I approach my truck in a parking lot, this kid was just staring at it. I said, "do you like it?" He said, "yeah, where's it from?" I said Transylvania. He said "for real?" I said yeah. He said "where's Transylvania?" I said "In Illinois". He said "Oh? I think he was 13 or 14.
  10. Phat Tires (285/60/20) Installed Continued...

    A couple more pictures of the 285/60/20 wheel fitment.
  11. Phat tires anyone?

    I just recently replaced my 21" wheels with the Pirelli's with the EV Sportline 20" wheels with a 285/60/20 tire! Yes they fit without rubbing, even in Sport mode and the lowest ride height setting. I wanted a beefy looking tire and wanted something a little "Phatter". They have the same...
  12. Run Around at Costco Tires Center?

    First of all, I think Costco is the best place to buy tires. Unbeatable customer service and thousands of locations. That said, I ordered a set of Bridgestone Dueler A/T Revo 3 tires, 275/60/20 to go on my Flow forged 8 spoke Bronze wheels from EV Sportline. These tires have a height of 33"...
  13. Anyone charged at a Tesla Supercharging station?

    Besides my Rivian, I also have a Tesla Model Y and I have a Tesla account when charging at a Tesla charging station. I also have two Tesla Wall chargers at my homes in PA and FL. I use the "J" adapter at my Florida house and charge my Rivian without any issues ever. Has anybody ever used a J...
  14. 21" Wheels and tires?

    I reserved my Rivian on Nov 28th, 2018. So, really early on. I chose a Red with white (Ocean Coast) interior and the 20" off road tires. Soon found out, after a long, long while, that my truck was being delayed due to the white interior. Not willing to wait, I finally asked to get the first...
  15. How to locate Tesla Magic Dock Superchargers?

    Does anybody know how to find a Supercharger location that can be used by a Rivian? Is there a site showing which ones have been retrofitted to accept a Rivian port? I charge 99.9% at home, and would need this for an upcoming road trip. Thanks.
  16. To charge or not to charge?

    I am going away for 3 weeks soon and wondered what is recommended, to leave it charging in my garage or charge it to full and let it sit for 3 weeks?
  17. Guide? I don't need no damn guide!

    Just kidding! I finally heard from my guide. Yay! I really didn't know how this would happen, but I had to select a time 6 or 7 days in advance to talk to her/him. Then I had to choose a time, an the hour slot that works for me. Anyway, after 3 years, 5 months, (Nov 29th, 2018) finally...
  18. So forget the IPO, where are the trucks?

    Does anybody know what's going on? Are they still building trucks? Is anybody being contacted? Why has there been nothing for what seems weeks! I have had to buy an ICE vehicle because I couldn't wait any longer. Yeah it's a used car that I will sell when finally I get my Rivian, ordered Nov...
  19. Well I could not wait any longer.

    I desperately need a truck by December. I ordered my Rivian on Nov 29th 2018, so I'm fairly early. I am moving to Florida and have a small trailer that I have to take down with me. I don't think I'll see my Rivian before next year based on the production numbers we've seen, so I started...
  20. Yay I got my Rivian!

    I had a dream last night that my guide called me to set up delivery of my R1T! What a nightmare, I don't wish this upon anyone.
