I guess the "inferior" aspect is up for interpretation but you do you and drop the $$$.
I've had good luck with 3M and my installer so I'm inclined to spend a bit less...to each their own.
Best of luck...hope you get your truck soon! I'm probably a year or more out so lots of time to...
Wow! Even $1500-2K is really high. I use a guy in Centennial/Aurora, CO (south of Denver) who's done every car I've owned in the last 12 yrs and he only charges ~$600 for hood, splash areas, mirrors, headlights, etc. In the interest of full disclosure, it's usually not the whole hood but...
Wow! That’s quite the challenge. Putting some wheel chocks where you want the back wheels to stop is good and I believe I’d also put a pretty heavy pad on that back wall…it might prevent an “oh darn” from becoming and “as sh#t”…
Wow! I hear what you're sayin' but $50k difference (assuming ~$100k purchase price) would sure put one heck of a custom paint job on this "defective" truck! And, as was mentioned earlier, a whole lot less $$$ would result in a WAY cool wrap of some kind...
Oh, and regardless, with my luck I'd...
If I can piggyback on the above, can any owner relay whether the air compressor is capable of being used to blow out the bed or be used for any other "blowing" function. Unless there's some kind of compressed air tank, I would think this unlikely but I hope I'm wrong.
Thanks for the info and...
I too am looking forward to seeing how the Raptor R performs but I think we've already seen how the R1T stacks up against "V8 monstrosity". The TRX Hellcat engine is a BEAST and, as a former Hellcat Challenger owner, I appreciate what it can do and would love to have one. I just couldn't...
Maybe not the best option but might help your Gear Guard issue - have you tried setting your "Home" address as three houses further past yours? Sounds like the mapping software is just a bit "off" in your area and could be fixed in future OTA update. You'll know it has been resolved when your...
When I was there last Saturday, they had one FG inside the fence. Couldn't get close but could still see and appreciate the color. All the Rivian employees were SUPER nice - very easy to talk with and answered lots of questions. Still didn't get to get in one but, since it was my first time...
Hey JKDU, I've lived in Colorado since 2006 (Uncle Sam left me here ?) and I've generally just left ATs on my trucks all year. For cars, I usually have some type of Summer only tire and switch to "no seasons" for the Winter. I currently am running the factory 33" Falken Wildpeak AT's on my...
Hey guys, checking in with a new order - placed about two weeks ago so the Rivian for me will remain a bit a myth for some time. Still excited and hopeful for early 2023...that's just before the lease on my Gladiator runs out so maybe good timing after all.
+1 on the Sonos...all wireless/WiFi enabled. All you need is power to the speakers. I also use the Sonos Move and Sonos Roam battery powered speakers when I need to localize the tunes. Best part is that it uses your phone and an App to run the music so no receiver required. I got online XM...
Oh yeah...there was a reason all right. I was pulled over because I was exceeding the posted limit by a significant amount. Got the ticket, the points and the higher insurance rates to prove it ?. My bad...in too much of a hurry...caught dead to rights. A lack of a plate would have been the...
Hey Commodore...You're spot on and I agree with everything you mention above...that said, my concern is that Rivian (and any carmaker) is likely to have more money to spend on attorney fees than I do so I do tend to take a measure of caution when modifying a new vehicle.
Disassembling and...
Yeah...that's the curious part...how the heck do you attach a winch to the r1t bumper without destroying it and have it still look "right".
And to tag on the license plate question...front plates required in Colorado as well but (and I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong :angel:) my...
Don't want to hi-jack this thread but VERY curious about your plans to install a winch. Perhaps start a new thread outlining your plan? I was wondering the same thing as I've watched all the videos of the r1t in Colorado...
I think RAM's already got that one for their TRX (T-Rex), Hellcat powered trucks. Was torn between the R1T and the TRX...similar money, similar performance. Winning argument was 10-11 mpg in the TRX and rising fuel costs vs. full "tank" every morning...
Placed my reservation this...
