A Homeland Security/ICE raid today halted construction at the LG Energy Solutions plant in GA, part of the Hyundai Metaplant campus. Operations at the Hyundai EV plant at the same location were apparently unaffected by the raid. I know that the R2 is slated to transition to LGES batteries, and...

Anodized aluminum aftermarket crossbars for R1T; note that they fit the bed only. These have mostly been stored away and have seen only occasional use, so are in very good shape. All the hardware and tools as shipped are included, as well as two sets of keys. Would prefer a local sale (located...

Followed closely by stationary objects.

In my experience, the vast majority of folks know essentially nothing about Rivian. If that is is true on a larger scale, and I'd bet that it is, by extension then, the vast majority of folks can't have any view of Rivian's reputation. Rivian has gotten quite a bit of media attention recently...

My understanding is that range is not just a function of the rolling resistance of the tire, but also (among other things) the overall wheel/tire diameter. Rivian reports the greatest EPA range with 21" wheels and AS tires with a 55 aspect ratio or 22" wheels and 50 series AS tires. The overall...

A bit off topic, but a number of years ago, I had three accidents, all while parked legally. Two were minor fender benders but also a more serious one with my Passat VR6: it was rammed by a wildly intoxicated and speeding driver whose Crown Vic plowed into my VW with enough force to drive it up...

I too swapped out the rather nosy Scorpions for the noticeably quieter and better range General HTS 60, a thousand miles after taking delivery of my R1T. The Grabbers are decent tires in terms of everything except service life; based on their wear to date I will only see about 22k - 25k miles...

You're skating on thin ice here @OhmsLoL; the Teslarati and EFBs are likely to come down hard on that last remark.

Does this mean that Gen 1 software is in, as @TexasBob puts it "a technical cut-de sac" and that Comma 3X is the only true option? I hope to hold on to my G1 R1T until the R2 is not merely available but also down the production learning curve a bit, so probably mid-2017.

I have the v2 and it's worked well kinda OK since it was installed about 9 months ago. It sounds awful when it cycles, but it has always worked, though in fairness, I don't cycle it much. Just lately, it has stopped closing properly, which in this case means it reaches the end of its travel...

Great to see Rivian SC's continue to get rolled out. When my R1T was first delivered, Rivian wanted those of us in SE Pennsylvania to use Brooklyn. for me, that meany a 250 round trip, of at least seven hours (more if traffic was heavy) and upwards of $75 in tolls. Thankfully, I was able to use...

A few more positive articles like this one that get the attention of our leaders in Washington DC will wind up motivating them to ramp up and start to fire on all cylinders in the effort to strangle EVs.

As a shareholder, I sincerely hope that R2 sales substantially exceed 150,000 annually. Whether that is a realistic hope however has become highly questionable, largely as a result of the radical change in both the economic and political climate. EV sales dipped significantly in Q2, and the...

"Follow Me" invokes a pretty specific image for many ex-infantry types (11C in my case):

Certainly good news. The article states that capacity is 215,000 units, but I suspect that means total capacity (R1, EDV and planned R2). Still, that would mean Rivian will be able to produce something like 150,000 R2's in Normal. I certainly hope that Rivian is able to sell that many R2's each...

While that's likely true, I think it's reasonable to expect that techs are well-trained, know what they're talking about and are providing accurate information to owners. This could of course be a highly unrealistic expectation on my part . . .

Thanks to both @Dark-Fx an @SolartoEV for the help. Unfortunately, the reset procedure doesn't seem to work in my case. Three quick taps and holding the button down on the fourth does close the cover, but it does not cycle open. This is the case regardless of whether the button is held down on...

I've used PDR for small dings and it has worked well. I suspect that it will not work for a larger, compound dent like the one that you have, but the only way to know for sure is to ask. As far as getting the body work done, you are free to use any shop that you'd like. Your insurance should pay...

Thanks @Dark-Fx. Not sure how I missed it . . .

I honestly don't hear it on my 2024 R1T PDM, though occasionally on the highway I feel a bit of a shudder as @drkp reports in the post above. That said, it would be great to have the AP and Conserve mode improvements that are referenced in the video. Does anyone know if this update will be for...
