It's the same conversation that happens on almost every channel within this forum on a daily.
Entitled people want more. I hate to be crass about it, but it's a bunch of grown ups whining that something isn't exactly what they want, how they want it, when they want it.
I, for one, continue to...
Eh...This isn't exactly true. That "almost irrelevant" is a big miss, in my technical opinion. I'm hoping this is an educational response to your conjecture and not taken as criticism.
Cold battery definitely is the biggest factor.
But.
Keep in mind that physics laws are in play at all times...
I'm a bit more dubious about this than you. Especially when you consider how incredulous Rivian is about 1- aftermarket/non Rivian-owned-SC repairs, 2- side steps and sliders, 3- aftermarket wheels/tires, 4-reticense to allow 3rd party development of replacement parts (12V batteries...
I was also hoping that Weathertech would make a set. The best I can tell is that Weathertech tends to find a way to build theirs so they 'tuck into' factory seams/weather stripping (from experience both my Subaru STi and my Volvo V60's Weathertech Rain Guards were designed this way--zero Tape...
We hope you reported that using the built-in feedback tool.
I know you were probably frustrated in the moment, but the only way the reports, grades, and noted availability will be updated is if we make an effort to do our part to bring awareness to our fellow BEV travelers.
That said, glad you...
It's not that the heat isn't hot. It's simply that you're likely the only one in your vehicle and it's only turning on the front zone. If it's particularly cold outside, and the entire rear volume of your vehicle is getting cold, you won't feel 'warm.' (But if you put your hands in front of...
Firstly, as others have mentioned, it can take up to 10 minutes for the TPMS to 'update.' I've had it happen within a mile, typically.
Secondly, the sensitivity threshold is pretty wide on these. We picked up my wife's R1S and the Tire Pressure was around 42 psi and the vehicle was fine with...
Fair enough. Maybe I am the only use case, at which point, I could just buy your set and modify myself.
I'm really bad at taking photos of the projects I've done, so apologies for the context of this one--it wasn't meant to be showing off my phone mount, but:
I can squeeze a wireless...
Just another point of context: I have an Android Phone (Pixel 7) that is not magsafe compatible. I require a 'holster'-style or 'friction-pinch'-style phone holder. I have historically 3d printed my own design to match my phone and case and use-case (location, angles, etc) and attach it to a...
SO, I'm not asking you to give away your secrets, but we're all trying to understand how this works and what type of risks are involved (if any).
Is this some type of physical hijack (/intermediary--similar to the early 90s when we needed that little RCA to Coax adapter that allowed us to play...
So, asking the dumb question:
is this just a device that's being cast to the vehicle using the native cast function?
At which point, the whole thing is moot the second we put it in drive?
Or did you somehow 'hack' Rivian so we can use Waze while driving?
I think we need more details...
Seems like there have been efforts to 'standardize' testing of the suspension.
Put your vehicle in off-road mode - > Set to highest -> Service Menu -> Tire Change.
Put a piece of masking or painters tape taught across the gap between your tire and the body of the truck.
If it remains taut...
FWIW: I'm in the process of testing this version for these guys. I *will* report back with results.
The crew at Best EV Mod have been paying close attention.
I do apologize to the community for being a tad late on this--the team at BestEVMod and I have been talking about this since my initial...
ChatGPT won't copy IP.
You can't even get it to make any Rivian vehicles with their signature lightbar because that is trade dress.
I'm (not) surprised people are making stickers and decals and such with this cool stuff. I guess when there are many people doing these things, it gives the...
Sweet, so it's completely subjective and another code violation that the Staties will probably be able to use against us.
Fortunately, as you pointed out, it doesn't seem verily enforced. It's probably just a 'catchall' for 'I saw this guy driving like a jack@$$ and want to get him for...
I just hate how subjective that must be, given the FACT that there's no way they're measuring or considering 'what' the actual acceleration is and 'what' is reasonable...
Next they're going to add penalties for the jerk!
