My load sticker is about 300 lbs lower than I thought it would be: Wondering what the load stickers say for the 20" and 21" wheels. That may be a consideration for some folks in deciding which set of wheels/tires to get...I'm good with mine, but others might not be.

This is just in case anyone else has the same question...My wifi connection to the truck is strong. AT&T's LTE here is about 1 bar. I asked whether the update would use the wifi as the better connection rather than the LTE which might be spotty at best. Tech support assures me that delivery...

Going to be hosting my R1T for a Drive Electric Earth Day event. It will be interesting to see who shows up and has an interest. Lots of other EVs at our local event...Tesla, Leaf, Ford, Kia, VW, Bolt. I'm going to just see what people want to know. If you were introducing your R1T to somebody...

12 volt batteries have always been the most common point of failure in ICE vehicles...hence the ubiquity of jumper cables and portable battery jump chargers. 12 volt batteries usually last a while and then, poof, they don't work. Sometimes failure is fairly quick. The 12 volt in my former...

Any ideas on assists for someone with a bad leg who has trouble getting up into the truck. The handhold above the doorway is a bit awkward. Thought about getting an extension that could be attached to the handle (lots of these on Amazon): Any other ideas?

After I claimed my $7500 tax credit on my Kia Niro EV, I got the following: Turns out that, for some reason, the VIN# of my car wasn't in their EV data base. The following hoops needed jump throughs: The hard part was item 'c)', but eventually I got that from Kia. With my purchase of the...

Also, the comfort functions (climate) listed as limited. Vehicle went into what the service tech called "turtle mode" with speed limited to 63 mi/hr and very slow acceleration from stop. I was told to turn off all communication from my phone and let the vehicle sit for a half hour or...

The floor space between the driver and front passenger is crying out for an organizer of some sort. Suggestions appreciated. Space is a little odd. 8" at the narrowest, about 11" deep.

Theoretically, gearguard videos can be downloaded to external USB storage via the ports in the center storage area. I say theoretically because I have tried two different USB thumb drives formatted to FAT32, per instructions, with no luck. The system does not see that I have something plugged...

Just had the guide call and should be getting the truck in the (fingers crossed) near future. I have an 80-pound long coat Akita and a 40 lb. Korean Sapsali. Wondering if anyone with a current truck has made an accommodations for a big dog or so. Thinking of flipping the rear seat up and doing...

I've nixed the 21" from my list due to concerns about availability. I've had blowouts before on hard-to-find tires. Looking at TireRack there is only one 21" listed for the R1T, eight compatible tires for 22", 3 compatible options for the 20". I am currently configured for 22", figuring that I...

Didn't ask at my 1st mile event, but wondering what wake words are available in the R1t and I also want my R1T to speak Samuel Jackson to me...works at home ( You can now hear Samuel L. Jackson’s voice on your Amazon Echo - The Verge ). Wonder if the Amazon connection carries over to that.

Here's one: There are lots of shirts and such that say Normal. Being about as distant from there as I can be in the contiguous US, I want one that says "Far from Normal". Others might get "Near Normal" or "Almost Normal"...well, you fill in the possibilities. Anything else come to mind?

According to Rivian R1T Camp Kitchen: Check out the final version of the electric pickup’s outdoor cooking station | TechCrunch , the gear tunnel shuttle is a currently included feature with the camp kitchen but will not be in the future: "Eventually, buyers who opt for the kitchen will also...

Now that there are actual R1T's out there, has anyone seen anything like a bed extender as an option. I had one on a Honda Ridgeline. There were times when it was very helpful...making the short bed longer with using the tailgate down. Something from Rivian would be nice...concerned about the...

I guess I should ask customer service, but thought somebody might know.

These guys Home - Hiatus Campers say that they think they can build a pop-up camper for the Rivian. They're pretty close to where I am (well, 80 miles) and want me to drive over when I get the R1t. Something I can't see from the various images I've seen online is maybe a concern, " The...

Getting an Airstream Basecamp scheduled to come in around the same time as the R1T. The Airstream dealer recommends the SwayPro ( SwayPro Weight Distributing Hitch | Blue Ox | Blue Ox )...well, also sells it. There are lots of others out there, of course. New to trailer towing and would like...

Looks like my quest for a slide-in camper option has gone nowhere (weight, non-standard bed) so am going to get a camper of some sort. There will be trade-offs here, of course. Weight and aerodynamics are a major concern. I would appreciate knowing what others have towed in the past with any...

In the Tesla Model Y, towing capability is tied to tire choice: " Equip your Model Y with a high-strength steel tow bar and 2” hitch receiver capable of towing up to 3,500 pounds on 19” and 21” wheels or up to 2,300 pounds on 20” wheels. Tow Mode actively monitors trailer sway and adjusts wheel...
