  1. DC Fast Charging Disabled until Serviced

    You can stop from the screen, the charger itself or just click the plug unlock and it stops right away. I don't know if that causes an issue but for the fast chargers I stop it from the truck or charge station screen just to be safe. For level 1 and 2 just unplug it.
  2. Reset Procedures -- 3 Types: Sleep, Infotainment, Full Reset

    Just an FYI after having to do a few resets myself. There are 3 types of reset (that I know of). This is from Rivian support and might be helpful to others in the future. Sleep Reset Rivian must be unplugged from charger, nothing plugged into any USB ports, Inverter off, all seatbelts...
  3. DC Fast Charging Disabled until Serviced

    After a real bad day on Tuesday where this royally screwed my day up (had to slow charge on a long business trip). I tried the sleep reset and a full reset with the left button on the steering wheel and the hazard button. This did a full reboot of the truck and unfortunately still get the error...
  4. Electric Cooler that fits nicely in the R1T frunk

    I turned on the inverter and the 12v seems to stay on. The cooler was only $220. Will keep messing with it.
  5. Automatic Braking Features

    Yep have used it. Not intentionally but was on a freeway onramp and the car next to me was not playing zipper nicely so I stepped on it a bit too much. The screen blinked red and it "yelled" at me with an audible warning as well as text and (the truck) slammed on my brakes! Scared me but there...
  6. Electric Cooler that fits nicely in the R1T frunk

    Disappointingly it does seem the power to that 12 volt outlet does NOT stay on. Reallyyyyyy dumb when you have a 135kWh battery attached to the truck! I guess that will have to be a software update. I have not confirmed this 100% but it seems to get warm when I am away for a while. I thought it...
  7. Rivian Heat Pump Patent Filed

    With a heat pump setup and solid state batteries and most everything else staying the same I expect double the range out of a Rivian in the next 5-7 years. Will be interesting to see if they do "cosmetic" changes on the different model years. Just seems like a waste of time to me in general. I...
  8. Electric Cooler that fits nicely in the R1T frunk

    Took a bunch of measurements of the Frunk (like how "frunk" is actually recognized by spellcheck!) and looked for a compressor style electric cooler. I settled on this one and so far so good! Also these are the organizers that keep the cooler from sliding around. Just grab onto the carpet I...
  9. Hotspot not turning on

    FYI the reset fixed this issue. Hope I don't have to do that often. Also fixed my Alexa not working.
  10. Rivian Communications SUCK!

    I finally have to vent on this. Sorry its a bit long winded. Rivians communication is horrible. Has been since the day they announced. Still an issue even with service. I almost want to work them just to fix these stupid comm issues! Would work for free for a month just to improve it...
  11. Manual Tonneau Discussion

    My tonneau cover broke on the first day I got the truck. About a month later and they are still waiting on parts. There are "alignment issues" with the electric covers and I am told there are new parts and a permanent fix now. I am hoping that gets fixed soon as the cover has been stuck open by...
  12. Charger while driving (towing)

    Need one of these! https://www.cnet.com/roadshow/news/airstream-estream-trailer-concept-lithium-ion-battery-driven-axles/
  13. Golf Cart in Rivian R1T (pics)

    I can't find a specific rating from Rivian but here are some other ratings I found. I figure its likely close. I would not want the heavy battery end of the golf cart on the tailgate. From https://vehicleanswers.com/how-much-weight-can-a-pickup-truck-tailgate-hold/ ...Honda Ridgeline, which...
  14. Excellent sized storage bins for the tunnel

    Got this at Home Depot https://www.homedepot.com/p/Ezy-Storage-18L-19Qt-Waterproof-Clear-Latch-Tote-IP-67-FBA34060/314650516. Stack 2 high right to the roof. A little tight under the latching assembly but works. Clear and the lids seal tight.
  15. Hotspot not turning on

    I have used the hotspot a few times in my truck but in the last few weeks it will not turn on. Button goes yellow for a few seconds then turns off. I have tried numerous times and yes I have good ATT service where I am trying. Anyone else having this issue?
  16. Don’t update to 2022.11.2 Without Reading First

    I have the latest update and my screens go to sleep. So glad that is not happening to me. Just a thought maybe turn your Gear Guard off or on as that is "on" all the time and the screen pops on and off when it senses motion. Mine is one and has been since about the 3rd day I had my truck. Also...
  17. 1st Month KWh per mile - owner's results

    Its hard to drive these truck "conservatively" so as I get more used to it (and don't let my wife drive it) my watts per mile should go up closer to what thedole is seeing. Charging at home is practically free for me with all the solar and time of use. So the only time I really care about...
  18. R1T Towing Experience: 7000 lbs Trailer

    Adding that we have to backup a hill (yes in reverse) to get into our driveway. It is a pretty steep hill maybe a 6 or 7% grade. My old RAM 1500 with a HEMI would struggle up this hill and sometimes overheat going backwards. The Rivian makes it easy like there is nothing behind it! The 900+...
  19. R1T Towing Experience: 7000 lbs Trailer

    Yes they are the 20" AT tires. The tires themselves are about 34" in diameter. The mileage on the way back is much worse because I just drove it like I didn't care about mileage. I figure if I was hypermiling then I might get closer to the 1 mile pre kWh. I agree that its mostly the...
  20. R1T Towing Experience: 7000 lbs Trailer

    With traffic I was going pretty slow and was rarely over 60. On the way home it was full speed and I drove closer to 65 and sometimes 70. Faster starts on the ramps etc. Elevation change was minimal both ways.
