  1. R1T trip report : 800mi, sub-freezing temps, grade: B+

    Nice, Sounds like a decent trip. I grew up 15 minutes from Mt Snow. Waiting on my max pack rivian here since May 2019 :(
  2. Guard those windshields!

    How do these protective films hold up with the wipers?
  3. Why no Tri-motor R1s!?

    I want capability range and power in that order. Power isn't the issue I'm having. I was going to have that in my 2018 max pack pre order. Now it's botched and I'm kinda torn. I think I'm leaning toward dual motor max pack which will sacrifice snow/mud performance.
  4. Heated windshield?

    Rivian has cut so many features out for production. Tesla model 3 windshields have heater around the upper camera to keep it clear in the winter. The tailgate has been nerfed, outlets, auto tinting glass roof, material cheapness, fit and finish issues growing. Ehh I am also a grumpy May 2018 max...
  5. Why no Tri-motor R1s!?

    How perfect would this be? More efficient single motor for the front axles and a dual motor setup for the rear to give it real rear locker capability. Definitely seems like a missed opportunity. What do yall think? 750hp, max pack tri motor with rear "locker"!
  6. [Official Feature] Rivian Drive Systems Decoded: Dual-Motor, Enhanced Dual-Motor and Quad-Motor

    Interesting. I have an 04 disco 2 with Cooper AT3 tires and I am at 40k on them with plenty of siping and tread left. Most OEM tires go for softer sidewalls and tread (comfort) but these Coopers weren't much of a change in drive quality. What tires do yall get for the LR3.
  7. Electricity rates went up 64% - Time to work remote remotely!

    Oof you don't sound pleasant. I know Rivians and EVs are exciting but if you live in an apartment/condo and your job or some other place doesn't have charging infrastructure, maybe you should rethink your vehicle purchase until things change. As for your comment about who deserves the charging...
  8. [Update: Official look at new OC interior w/ dark-stained ash wood] Ocean Coast with BM wood trim are shipping soon according to service center guide

    I totally agree man. We'll said. I was on par to being a happy pre orderer. Thought I'd get the Launch edition and get the offroad wheels free among other things and then they announced no max pack at launch so I am back in hibernation until "early" 2023 for my max pack. Currently set on the...
  9. So who is in the DMV Area

    Have you guys seen any limestones in the area yet. I just switched from limestone to blue, but would still like to see in person. I drove the blue and loved it more in person
  10. Max pack to large pack converts, do we expect any change in est date?

    I'm sorry, but just grab a beater or subscribe to a year long volvo. There are alot of options. If you have been on this forum you know Rivians word is about as reliable as a Jaguar/land rover. Both are awful! Good news is financially you got this ;)
  11. So who is in the DMV Area

    In my mind I'd almost switch to the R1S if I could get the max pack with it. I'm a may 2019 max adventure R1T pre order from Sterling VA, and got bumped to first half 2023. Our family already has an 04 discovery and new palisade but the SUV just looks so great to me.
  12. Do you think Rivian should only have one battery pack? (Large Pack)

    200-250 miles of range in an off-road adventure driven EV that can house an electric cooktop? No thank you. There are SO many other options now for people running that kind of range. An adventure and outdoor themed company should NOT be one.
  13. Do you think Rivian should only have one battery pack? (Large Pack)

    1. I would normally agree but with supply chain issues and huge battery shortages, I think they opted to get more bang for their buck. 2. Maybe Ford is waiting to reveal anything. Sometimes not knowing that a larger range is coming in a year or two might help current sales.
  14. ? Update from RJ on production & deliveries -- via email letter 12/28/21

    May of 19 R1T Max pack pre order :( First half of 2023. For me this truck is far less viable as a 300 mile adventure vehicle. With huge reductions in towing and off road the extra range is needed for me..
  15. Why the 6-month delay from Oct ‘21 to Mar ‘22?

    Is anyone else losing the excitement that Rivian brought in the beginning? My biggest concern as we wait 3 years now for this vehicle, is dated battery tech and poor charging rates. The cost of EVs will continue to drop and this rivian seems less and less like a premium vehicle. From cheap...
  16. My Day With RJ Scaringe — A Lucky Encounter & R1T Impressions

    Sounds like a great day but am I the only one who kinda rolls my eyes when people praise RJ? I just don't get how people are surprised he is a personable person during the launch of his 40 billion dollar empire? It is a bit cringy, but maybe I am just a luddite to California based mega companies...
  17. Official: RIVIAN MEMBERSHIP Announced [1 year free trial beginning at day of delivery]

    Teslas costs $10 a month. I can't imagine this being much more than that. I guess since charging is rolled in, maybe that bumps the cost over teslas, but then again, Their OTA updates are free.

  19. First Midnight R1T + Other Rivians Spotted at Breckenridge, CO Press Drive Event â›°

    Black is HARD out for me. Ive had two black WRX/STIs and while beautiful, It is not meant for an offroad vehicle lol. I also don't think it looks that great compared to the other colors.
  20. Part 2: We Drive the 2022 Rivian R1T Off-Road Across the Trans-America Trail - by MotorTrend

    I need to see the limestone though! The blue has grown on me!
