  1. Underbody Shield - Worth it ?

    I think it really was a case by case basis at the end of the month/quarter here. I had the package on my vehicle but when speaking to my guide I asked about removing it. I gather that pretty much the only reason I was assigned a guide so early was because they had a vehicle that matched my...
  2. PIN to Drive?

    Make sure you tell your guide. They pass the feature requests and bug reports onto the correct teams. If enough people ask for it they are more likely to do something.
  3. Enclosed Utility / Motorcycle Trailer Towing -- 15 mile test run today

    @Joints4Sale what was the ball drop that you had to use for your trailer? When switching to towing mode it leaves you in standard height, did you stay in standard or drop to low?
  4. Ask us Rivian R1T owners ANYTHING [AMA]!

    I have the off-road package, 20" AT tires w/spare
  5. Turning off R1T charging status lights ?

    Not exactly. The charging light bar on the front and rear turn off when vehicle is locked. But the charge port has a light on it as well when charging and that slowly pulses green and will continue to stay on while locked and charging. After charging is complete the green just stays lit. At...
  6. Ask us Rivian R1T owners ANYTHING [AMA]!

    I've had to turn off auto lock/unlock because mine was constantly doing both with my phone inside. I'm 30+ft away when standing at my window and I can watch the truck unlock itself. So for now I've sadly turned that feature off. Others have stated its not so bad so YMMV
  7. Audio issues

    I had that happen to me as well the other night. Audio had been working fine for a few drives earlier, then took the truck for a drive to get supper with the family but no audio the whole way. Music shows that it's playing, can change to radio as well but nothing coming through. Blinkers and...
  8. Ask us Rivian R1T owners ANYTHING [AMA]!

    Hmm, thanks for checking. I did have it happen to me again in a different parking lot where the sensors did not come on when I parked. When I got back in the car to leave and put in reverse the sensors lit up.
  9. Out of Spec Towing with an Electric Truck - R1T vs Ford F-150 PowerBoost

    Fully dependent on where you are charging at though. Could be cheaper if you're charging at home, a hotel, campground. But yes I agree in today's current state of the charging infrastructure and few companies like Electrify America being able to charge whatever they want, it can cost the same...
  10. Tax Credit

    Started to type a reply but then found a better source that explains the process. Posted the relevant text below. The federal tax credit is phased out over time beginning the second quarter AFTER the quarter in which a manufacturer reaches a total of 200,000 BEV or PHEV vehicles sold since...
  11. When were Launch Editions sold out?

    When the configurator went live in November of 2020 anyone could get a LE. Even those that put down a deposit that day/week. They have never said and possibly never will say what the max LE orders they capped off at but they did say their LE capacity was "sold out" I believe 3 days after...
  12. Out of Spec Towing with an Electric Truck - R1T vs Ford F-150 PowerBoost

    I agree. I don't have a plan to ever pull a trailer that large or heavy at those kind of speeds or even potentially that distance. I do have a boat that I'll pull which is much lighter weight than this and obviously much more aerodynamic. EVs can absolutely be used for towing, they just have...
  13. Upgrading capacity to home?

    In my opinion looking at your panel spreadsheet and knowing you don't use the 3rd dryer, took out the hot tub, willing to remove the sauna, and don't use the extra heater I think 200 amp service is enough for your home. Even with 2 electric cars, as long as you're charging at night the majority...
  14. ? Delivered R1T Owners List and Stats [Enter Yours]!

    Any way to make the color chart show a closer representation of the vehicle's color?
  15. Out of Spec: R1T Charging Curve, Cost and Analysis

    Agreed. It seems like the 60-100 range doesn't have a whole lot of room for improvement but the 0-60 does have room to get improved with better preconditioning and better thermal management while charging. I think that will be the key area Rivian will need to work in. Improve the charge ramp...
  16. Upgrading capacity to home?

    Your main breaker should tell you it's max amperage. Most homes in US are either 100, 150, or 200 amp service. My guess just looking at your spreadsheet is that you have a 200 amp service. Also most people will want to be charging their vehicle at night when your home's electrical needs are...
  17. Ask us Rivian R1T owners ANYTHING [AMA]!

    Other owners, I'm looking to see if it's just my truck or if others are experiencing as well. When parking at home, my parking/proximity sensors do not work at all. If I'm anywhere that is not my home like a parking lot, the sensors work just fine. Will be mentioning it to my guide next week...
  18. Day 3 with the R1T - Annoyances and Wish List

    I'm having a post delivery follow up call with my guide on Monday and I was already planning on suggesting this too. My thought is they implement a bug/suggestion form on account's with a delivered vehicle. If its a bug, let us track or stay in the loop of when a resolution is found. Let real...
  19. Ask us Rivian R1T owners ANYTHING [AMA]!

    A recommendation to those who've taken delivery is to check your spare tire area for water. I have the spare tire and I don't know how it happened but after the delivery specialist left I checked and had an inch of standing water in there. Pulled the tire and jack out and had to pull the drain...
