  1. EA Pass+ and pricing change update

    Well, you can avoid all this by just buying a new Hyundai or other EA-incentivized EV every two years...
  2. Rivian R1S getting recall to update backup light lamp lenses. Notices coming to owners May 20 for replacement service starting July

    I see I missed the chance to be the first to flash my nipples here. Oh well. I will say that they didn't look bad once I was holding the lights in my hand... They only extend about half an inch from the surrounding red lens and work in pretty well. The first picture shared made me think it...
  3. Your Experience With Rivian Customer Service?

    I have had what I would call great customer service since delivery, but I have... I think... always called or chatted with "Rivian Service" through the app. Everyone I've spoken to has been super positive, even the other day, when the problem was my home charger (non-Rivian), not the vehicle...
  4. Rivian R1S getting recall to update backup light lamp lenses. Notices coming to owners May 20 for replacement service starting July

    A literal carbon copy. Either way, I don't think I'm doing it. As I told the guy, I value my safety and the safety of others just a little less than how my R1S looks from behind and slightly below.
  5. Rivian R1S getting recall to update backup light lamp lenses. Notices coming to owners May 20 for replacement service starting July

    I just got the text and called them. I already had a mobile appointment on the 17th, so we're adding it to that. They said it is voluntary and that I can look at the solution and decide if I want to go through with it or not. They mentioned "[the white part of the light] sticks out [past the red...
  6. From a former Jeep and current Bronco owner

    @Mike777, welcome to the forum; I hope you get to stick around and one day post pics of your new Rivian. If I can be so bold, I would just say that some of the things that you said or alluded to in your original post touch on some contentious discussions that have happened in the past few years...
  7. Attention all R1S Dog Owners

    So, I just checked. With my current settings, the flap hangs 9.5” below the top of the tailgate in the down position (open). The tailgate is a couple inches thick. I would wager that you could be ok with those lengths, BUT my measurement is with the second row up and a bit of a dip in the cargo...
  8. Attention all R1S Dog Owners

    Hey all, just wanted to chime in with the Canvasback R1S Cargo Cover. This is the one-piece model. It is actually two pieces connected with velcro so that you can use the 3rd row, if needed. I got black with no contrast stitching because I'm poor. I also got the R1S Bumper Flap (with 24" length)...
  9. Sketchy On-Trail Rivian Tie Rod Fix Proves Even an EV Can Be Rescued With Some Welded Rebar

    My YouTube mechanic/engineer/dry wit source has touched on this. The whole video is worth watching, but here's where he talks about not getting beefier tie rods.
  10. R2 clay model "revealed" under blanket cover!

    So, who is going to be the hero and do some extrapolation so we can compare the size of this vehicle to what is (or will be) its competitors? Someone who can do math and rendering (and knows RJ's height) should be able to do that... Depending on its size, this could be entering into a...
  11. What I've learned in 9 months R1S

    Anyone else just run out to their R1S to test the length of their air hose? I'm good, but, man, putting the hose away was like trying to jam a baby back into the uterus.
  12. JFF: If you see a Rivian, you park next to the Rivian

    Finally got a chance to contribute to this thread. I had to park like that because the white van in the back was encroaching into the parking spot.
  13. New tax for EV's in Texas

    If I remember correctly, Virginia also has a special tax for EVs and hybrids. The stated intent is to compensate for the lack of revenue from taxes placed on gas which go to road maintenance. I can accept that. However, if it becomes a tool to punish EV owners, that's a problem. I have read that...
  14. New Replacement R1T Delivered After Previous One Was Totaled

    Wow! I'm really sorry that this whole thing happened, but the experience is heartening from a safety and insurance aspect. I'm happy you're back on the road.
  15. NO voice directions , only tones when using GPS/Maps

    Welp, kinda hoped that would be a simple fix that just slipped by everyone. I'll take getting embarrassed by a simple fix that I overlooked over a bigger issue requiring more time/effort any day. I hope it wasn't an insulting suggestion!
  16. NO voice directions , only tones when using GPS/Maps

    At the risk of asking about something you may have already been aware of (and gosh, I hope CS made you check this), but have you checked these settings?:
  17. Kevlar Coating on R1T and R1S

    I harbor delusions that one of my daughters will get, as her first, vehicle, an XJ Jeep Cherokee that we can work on together to lift it and do an engine swap on, etc. This, in a desert tan, is now on the list.
  18. Kevlar Coating on R1T and R1S

    You have to season it and never use dish soap.
