  1. One Week with the R1T - Some Suggestions

    Total guess, but I think lane change assist is a marketing term for two features. First, if you signal with driver+ on, you can then change lanes and it maintains the speed with adaptive cruise, you then can re-enage driver. This enables you to easily change lanes without touching the pedal...
  2. I added CarPlay to my R1T

    Good use for a poll. My guess is that the majority are using the built-in nav most of the time. I always use it. Minimal problems but I’m in north county San Diego where they tested these things for the last couple of years and employees live. The way you improve mapping is to look at where...
  3. I added CarPlay to my R1T

    The gain is simple: data. Navigation data to improve maps / self driving and to provide ancillary services like insurance. App usage, which stores and restaurants you go to, etc etc. it’s the same reasons why google and apple want that data.
  4. Test drove F150 Lariat Lightning ER today, my thoughts

    I couldn’t agree more, but it’s a two-way street. Every day lately this forum is filled with comparisons that leave the R1T strengths and only focus on the lightnings. We shouldn’t compare speed because Rivian is faster. We shouldn’t compare manuverbaility and handling because Rivian is...
  5. Test drove F150 Lariat Lightning ER today, my thoughts

    How did the speed, manuverability / handling and range of the lightning pro compare? What about the screen, audio system and interior quality? “trick suspension” - is that a typo?
  6. R1T Drag Racing the Lightning!! + Ram TRX and F-150 Powerboost Hybrid

    Ya, Let’s not measure performance or maneuverability. Which one can hold more beverages? That’s the most important thing.
  7. Hitch Pin length

    This is going to save me a hassle. Winner for most helpful post of the day. …of course your main competition was the 20th post about how the lighting can hold 2 extra big gulps.
  8. Phone As A Key Performance

    Works well for me too, 100% of the time. The proximity decreases when at your saved home and work addresses, so it's a little slower in those locations. This change was made to stop the vehicle from locking / unlocking when people were near the truck but in their homes or workplace.
  9. ? My F-150 Lightning Arrived! Comparison & Opinions Quick Take vs my R1T

    That’s funny. That big center spot has been the favorite feature of every woman that’s been in the truck.
  10. ? My F-150 Lightning Arrived! Comparison & Opinions Quick Take vs my R1T

    I'm really surprised that the interior went to the F150, but it appears to be more about function than quality and appearance. My forest edge interior is the nicest interior I've ever seen, and I don't typically double-fist while driving so don't value cupholders much.
  11. ? My F-150 Lightning Arrived! Comparison & Opinions Quick Take vs my R1T

    I truly think the wind noise is a hit-or-miss situation with Rivian. Mine is really quiet, even at high speeds.
  12. Handwriting from factory on side of my R1T

    I don’t know what kind of whichcraft that stuff is, but it totally worked! I officially owe you a beer.
  13. R1S Demo Drives expected to start "early this summer": CS chat

    I believe the R1S is 16 inches shorter than the R1T - I suspect that's going to make a pretty big difference.
  14. Range Anxiety - Is it Real???

    Government mandated creation of an EV charging station subsidiary as a fine for emissions violations. Brilliant. EA is owned by Volkwagen and it's creation was forced by the government as punishment for them cheating emissions standards. Why in the world would anyone think this setup is going...
  15. R1S Demo Drives expected to start "early this summer": CS chat

    I'm confident demo drives will begin early this summer - probably just for employees though...
  16. Handwriting from factory on side of my R1T

    No dent and I compared the door jams extensively. Even used my kids protractor at one point. Don't worry, my wife thinks I'm totally sane.
  17. Handwriting from factory on side of my R1T

    Door jam looks fine to me. I suspected that I got a truck that was rejected initially and fixed - kinda glad it was the door jam honestly.
