  1. Tailgate not dropping? Anyone else?

    Sounds good, we'll go with "not designed to (consistently) drop on its own" , for now at least. What threw me is that at delivery, when demo'ing the truck, it initially dropped consistently, then stopped, which led me to believe something was out of adjustment... This is unlike the gear...
  2. Tailgate not dropping? Anyone else?

    Really love my new R1T, this is a pretty minor issue, but haven't seen other mention of it... Pushing the tailgate release button inside or outside unlatches the tailgate, but it usually does not drop on its own, it needs a slight nudge. I'm sure the service center can deal with it along with...
  3. TONNEAU ISSUES / TROUBLES POLL - Headaches for Us and Rivian?

    Tonneau opens with outside button or from inside touch panel, but does not retract fully... About 4" still sticks out. This will cause an error message if opened from touch panel and the touch panel will not close it. It closes fine with the outside button. Seal is fine. It was like this at...
  4. Team 1EV Rivian specific forged Aero Wheels

    "Not very attractive, but hey, at least they're expensive!"
  5. Phone As A Key Performance

    Well I've only had the truck three days and three times so far, so I guess about once a day!
  6. El CAP GRANITE Rivian Photos

    Earlier today... Stock so far except for aero wheel covers removed (still waiting on center caps) and 20% front window tint.
  7. Phone As A Key Performance

    Except that it gets parked outside at home frequently. And since you kind of have to just 'trust' that proximity lock works, turning it off and on doesn't seem prudent. And that will do nothing to fix the lock/unlock/lock/unlock behavior if we are at a coffee shop, restaurant, whatever and the...
  8. Phone As A Key Performance

    I've only had my R1T a few days, and this seems exactly what is happening for me... Locks so far 100% of the time when I walk away (but I have to put a fair bit of distance), but doesn't always unlock. As soon as I stick my hand in my pocket to grab the phone (and press the volume key to wake...
  9. Rivian hauling dirt bikes in bed -- test fitting TE300 and 500 KTM

    Nice work... Like the track setup. I'd love to see a few more pictures of how the front wheel loads against the chock and maybe more detail showing if it actually touches the tonneau. My Rivian was delivered a few days ago, but haven't tried getting the dirt bikes in it yet. Plus my tonneau...
  10. Removing 21" wheel aero covers + 3d printed hub cap = clean, easy

    How about just posting the link for us to check 'em out? Or just the Amazon ASIN code? I've found nothing even close on amazon.
  11. Changed Spec and Offered Quick Delivery!

    They are batch-building. I proactively changed my config to match what I knew was rolling off the assembly line and got an immediate match and VIN assignment... "Large" battery, four-motor, 20" wheels, black interior, Adventure pack, add the deleted-from-standard power tonneau cover back...
  12. When Does Delivery Step 8 Open?

    As others mentioned, local service center contacted for setting up delivery time/date before uploading final proof of insurance and proof of payment (copy of the certified check I used to pay). It's a nice idea on the fully automated system, but they still are doing it pretty much manually...
  13. Working Magsafe / Magnetic Qi Wireless Charging Pad Install! - DIY Writeup

    Yeah, better than nothing, and an easy solution, but no way that would hold my phone in place on the roads I drive...
  14. Radar Detector hardwire, who has done it?

    Thanks to all those that posted up their results on hard-wiring to the mirror connector... Appreciated! Though my Rivian delivery is delayed another few days, I'll add a couple of notes from multiple other V1 hardwire installs... Power Cord: I've used these V1 slide-in-tap style power cords...
  15. Removing 21" wheel aero covers + 3d printed hub cap = clean, easy

    A few pictures of the 21" wheels with and without the aero cover. The hole that remains without the cover has a few 'steps' in it, so it's hard to say exactly what size cap might fit best, but it is around 48.4mm (1.9"). Note that this is MUCH smaller than most other vehicle center caps, at...
  16. Working Magsafe / Magnetic Qi Wireless Charging Pad Install! - DIY Writeup

    Nice work.... Links to the specific magsafe adapter and DC-DC converter you used? I've tried a bunch of different magsafe adapters in my other car installations. In general, I've found magnetic attachment strength is much more a factor of the phone case that is used vs. the magsafe adapter...
  17. Rivian R1T Door Construction Analysis: Sandy Munro Live

    The Munro Rivian teardown videos seem a bit myopic to me... Their focus seems to be predominantly on lowering cost of manufacturing and speeding up production. Very important goals, for sure, but they don't mention the accelerated time-to-market that many of Rivan's decisions enabled nor...
  18. Any Update on the Dearth of 20" AT Deliveries?

    If you want your R1T quickly, switch to 21", add the powered tonneau cover, and choose the black interior. I made those adjustments and *immediately* got a guide, VIN, and paperwork, and three days later, truck arrived at the nearest service center. *Seven months* before the delivery estimate...
  19. Latest VIN check R1T. What is the real production rate...

    My new R1T was off-loaded from the carrier yesterday (6/16) at my local service center, fresh from the factory. 744X. It's going to be a very long 9 days until my delivery!
