There are 8.5 visible (so assuming 9) and at least three of them are 6" wide. Fair, perhaps it's not a tough adventure. Call it plain adventure then (unless you don't care about tossing an expensive vehicle at some rocks), but it's definitely more sturdy than a Tesla and more adventure than...

Looks like there are 8.5/9 visible slats (not sure how many there are under the cover). They're 6 inches wide... I didn't measure all of them to see if they're the same width though.

I got my truck late September and the guide told me that I had a "newer" version which they've had more success with. He identified it by saying there are wider slats and fewer of them. I had read on this forum that there were various iterations but all are fragile. Which sadly goes against...

Ha! "I would have made it had it not been for a stiff breeze for the last 3 feet"

Not according to the screenshots added to the original post. It no matter, it’s been explained to me that .03 and .3 are the same in the software world :)

Weird that 2022.39.03 is a newer release than 2022.39.1 The way I learned decimals is that .1 is greater than .03 (tenth vs. hundredth). ?‍♂️

Earlier this spring I spoke with someone - off the record - who had been at Rivian for at least 5 years. He told me that if you want to actually get the truck, don't wait for the Max. Other than a test mule here and there, they haven't done much with them yet. The at-the-time estimate of 2023...

Great to read about your efficiency on a longer road trip. It's nice to see folks are consistently getting similar numbers on the freeway. I know your screenshot says 44mph average speed, but what speeds were you typically doing on the highway? I'd love that context as well to add a "if I do...

It regens to a complete stop (at least in High regen which is what I use all the time). I've had my truck about 6 days and i've used the friction brakes twice. Once to test them, and a second going from 3mph to 0mph as a cyclist came past me and I had to brake quickly and hard at low speed...

Ha - yes! I might have exaggerated a little on the speaker count... but there are a lot of them.

The struggle was real! My initial config had limestone but my wife was so-so on it. Then for a while it was El Cap Granite, but I figured that would be a lot of maintenance (and I started seeing a lot of them.) Then it was white for a long time. I went to the service center and saw all the...

Thanks Tim! That was my guess as well. I'm afraid that it isn't very confidence inspiring the few times I've looked at it, but progress marches on. In the meantime, I'm very much enjoying doing the driving myself -- I don't look forward to a future where cars drive themselves :)

My guess is not very much. Some folks have referenced ~5% increase in range (although that seems more of an expectation rather than data-driven). A recent aerodynamic analysis by AirShaper on the R1T (granted, this was with 22" wheels) produced an aerodynamic coefficient that was only slightly...

I agree - the aero caps look a bit silly. Before we even got started on the delivery process, my delivery rep and I removed them. I didn't want to risk them chipping some of the rim paint (like some forum posts have shown) either. Next up is getting the center caps. I'm debating whether to...

After about 1.5 years of waiting, my turn to pickup my R1T finally came. My truck is Rivian Blue (although for a while I changed it almost daily), 21” wheels with a spare, Black Mountain interior… cross bars that might arrive sometime. Like so many others on the forum, I thought I’d share my...

I'm curious to hear when you end up getting yours. I confirmed my config just a few days after you (Aug 28th) and my guide said 4-8 weeks. Given I'm just a bit south of LA (Orange County - a few miles from the local SC), I'm guessing your experience will be a good indicator for me. Maybe our...

Yeah, most likely. But... if I was assigned a guide, I would have told them I am/would have been very flexible with my configuration. It's certainly been frustrating to see how Rivian handles their guide assignments, who they reach out to to see if they're flexible, etc. At this point I've...

Interesting. I have the exact same order/config but I live in Costa Mesa. I pre-ordered on June 1st, 2021 and still no guide or any other contact :(

I think the biggest frustration I feel when hearing about this is that it's for folks who placed their orders/reservations after many on this forum who are given an opportunity to get a truck sooner. The truck doesn't quite match but "hey, make some changes and we can get you one." If I was...

Ah yes - I realize my summary of what I did made it seem like you, too, changed interior, when in reality you were tinkering with wheels. In addition to wheels, I've tried interior, exterior color, battery size. I haven't tried changing my name, location, willingness to bribe officials, etc...
