The latest software update installed yesterday with no problem. I noticed that the update went into a “preparing” status while I was driving. I don’t know when the download completed, but it installed when I was at home, parked, and on WiFi. I have not yet had a chance to see if this fixed my...

Yes, I've seen similar behaviors. It was fine for a few weeks after the last software update, so I don't think that was the cause of my issue. It's really only been a problem for me for the last week. Yesterday morning, I was trying to preheat the cabin before going to work. The truck...

That could be the case. I'll have to test this some more when I'm not at home and charging. I've only been a user of the service for a few weeks and am still learning all its nuances. I like Electrafi's data, but not enough to sacrifice any range.

From Electrifi’s site, I’d does appear to access the vehicle directly and can keep the vehicle awake. The Electrifi knowledgebase has some docs on this. I noticed at work today my R1T wasn’t sleeping and showed in idle status for several hours. I changed some of the sleep settings in...

Another thing to keep in mind is what will be the charging options at your destination? If the remaining range after you reach or destination will not be sufficient to get you to a charger when you leave, you could be stranded. A example of this is my Thanksgiving day trip to my wife's...

Yes, I think so, but I did not pay close attention. I’m just letting it default to whatever Rivian coded it for. I don’t have a strong opinion about what would be “best” — I’ve only had the truck for 3 weeks, so I’m mostly just observing and learning at this point.

Do the Gen 2's have different regen settings? I too am in Minnesota and I was out in the ice Wednesday night. I put my R1T DM in the snow setting and really had no issues with regen and stopping traction. It is my first winter in an R1T and I was curious to see how it would do, and I was...

I've never named a vehicle before and did not plan on naming my new Gen 2 R1T, but the Department of Motor Vehicles did it for me. My new plates start with the letters RUS, so now the truck is known as Russ. Russ Rivian has a nice alliteration to it.

I would love to, but living in Minnesota makes it difficult. The closest one is over 4 hours away. The next closest after that is another 3 hours.

I found that if you put it in reduced traction control setting that the rear motor is more active under normal to light acceleration. I don’t know if that actually makes any noticeable difference in traction or performance, but it is visible on the display.

Yep, exactly the same for me. Only the passenger door handles light up.

I have something similar, but would not describe it as loud in any way. Maybe a very quiet clunk that believe is the brakes releasing from a hold status just as I touch the accelerator. The clunk is simultaneous with the hold indicator going off on the dash.

I had the same thing happen on my 2025 R1T. I don’t know if it is a freak thing or a recurring issue. I just started locking the truck even though it is in the garage. That seems to avoid the issue. Hopefully there is a software fix coming.

I don’t think this is Rivian specific. I’ve had issues with Apple Music buffering in CarPlay in my old Chevy truck. Sometimes it was fine, other times buffered like crazy, even in the same stretch of highway where it worked before. Never tried to find a cause, I just accepted it as that was the...

I've been watching on and off for a R1T with a large battery for a few weeks. Occasionally one will show up in the shop and when there is one available, the large battery is an option in the menu. There were two there yesterday for my ZIP code, but they are gone today.

Try a product called CLR (short for calcium, lime, and rust). I’ve used it to remove all types of scale build-up. It should be safe for the camera lens as well.
