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...
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...
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.
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...
@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...
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...
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)...
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.
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...
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.
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...
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.
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!
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?:
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.
