  1. Motortrend article on Conserve Mode causing tire wear

    Mine uses fwd around town at low speeds. Not just on the freeway. If I increase the ride height to max then it engages all motors. I don’t normally see all motors engage unless I accelerate hard.
  2. Lesson Learned: always have the key card (in case phone and/or key fob don't work)

    You don’t need service for the app to work. It will unlock with Bluetooth.
  3. Some R1 refresh mechanical info from a Rivian service tech, announcement next week?

    People expect a quieter EV because there are quieter EV’s out there. I have owned three teslas and they were all whisper quiet in comparison. Even my last bmw was quieter at 30mph.
  4. Asphalt driveway problems

    my concrete patio has rebar in it. An asphalt driveway usually has a base layer of recycled asphalt or something like it and then asphalt poured over it. There is a lot more labor in a concrete driveway. Personally I would get pavers if I was redoing my driveway. You can easily get 30 years or...
  5. Currently driving from FL to CA

    I think to make a road trip like this work you have to plan your drives so you are arriving to a hotel with a charger and almost empty battery and topping off over night. The battery is too big to fill twice during the day. I just got done driving 400 miles and I only had to stop twice for 15...
  6. High pitch whine noise from motor - 23 Dual motor/max

    Unfortunately that is normal. I have a dual motor performance and I’d be happy to send you some videos for comparison. It used to annoy me a lot but I have gotten used to it. 30mph is my least favorite speed because of the noise. My Tesla makes no noise so I thought my truck was broken. if...
  7. Automatic wipers inop

    I had the rain sensor replaced on mine because of this issue. It’s near the rear view mirror. They replaced it with a new updated design.
  8. R1T cover flap on the air compressor

    I bought this and it works great Cover lock
  9. Cybertruck Laugh of the Day [⚠️ WARNING: NO POLITICS; MEMBERS BANNED]

    Why are we even comparing the model 3 to a Rivian? The Rivian costs twice as much so it should be better. I own a 23’ M3P and 24’ R1T. They are both completely different vehicles.
  10. Charging Adapter Question

    You might want to remove your post because all of your numbers are incorrect. It’s more than just a simple math problem. The efficiency of the vehicle is determined by which tires are used and the drive mode, among many other factors. Also the vehicle is not going to charge faster then 48...
  11. Vent windows rarely works

    I have the exact opposite problem. Vent always works for me but close windows doesn’t. My rear passenger window doesn’t like to auto up so it stays open.
  12. Charging Adapter Question

    Where did you get your data? I pull about 1 mph on a 5-15 and 27mph on my 11.5 kw Tesla home charger.
  13. Level 3 extension cable?

    You can select which charger brand you want to show up in the nav. I’ve only used one Tesla supercharger and it was a good experience. People were coming up and asking me about my truck. It may have been different if I was taking up multiple spots but I was on an end spot. The first super...
  14. Charger help

    I use the adapter from evbase on my Tesla charger. No issues. I get 27mi/hr EVBase charger
  15. Keeping Roof Sun Shade in Place?

    I have this one and no clips are needed. Just pull the roof liner down and slide under the edge. It’s magnetic. https://www.evbase.com/collections/rivian/products/rivian-sunshade-r1t-roof-sun-shade-rivian-accessories-1?variant=43830660366579
  16. Rivian testing new Driver+ (Autonomy Experience Module) -- stops by the FCC

    It will never be level 4. A system that gets blinded by the sun will never be classified beyond level 2. Tesla uses a camera based system and has removed ultrasonic sensors and radar. That means if it’s snowing or raining too hard your car can’t see. It is terrible to drive when the sun is...
  17. Send address to Navigation from Rivian App or maps no longer works

    Phone has definitely been power cycled a couple times. Only thing I haven’t done is delete and reinstall the app.
  18. Send address to Navigation from Rivian App or maps no longer works

    I didn’t even think about trying that. Thanks. I’ll give it a shot.
