The plate thickness wouldn't be the weak point, it's the leverage at the bolt head. Unless the inboard tube is resting on the tub somehow, all the weight on it could rip out/shear the bolts or dent the tub. In other words, the 'slider' would be the strongest part, the body/bolts the weakest...

Hmmm. With that mounting method, those look more like running boards than sliders to me.

I think the same thing when I get into my ‘06 Jeep LJ - If I could electrify it for the price/range of an S I would.

The first thing I said when I pulled out the camp speaker on the first mile drive was 'I can't believe this thing comes standard', and not in a good way. Love it, sharp design, will never use. They should've put a pull out drawer there (cup holders?) and had the speaker in the gear shop. And...

According to Dev, mine went from Apr-Jun 2023 to May-Jun 2023 Develop > Show Web Inspector > Just search "2023" and scroll til you find it.

My Apr-Jun 2023 delivery window was "Processing estimate" a few minutes ago, now back to Apr-Jun 2023 Edit: Ha, now back to "Processing estimate"

Again, trying to avoid a hitch rack. The vehicle will be used for short/intown drives so no problem having it mounted all the time. Wouldn't want to leave a hitch mount on there all the time - also the garage is tight and I don't really have a place to store it.

I haven't yet come across much info/first-hand experience on a rooftop bike rack setup for an R1S - has anyone done this? Ive seen quite a bit on R1T bed setups, but Im wondering if the lifting height would be an issue on an S, esp with a heavy-ish mountain bike. (I have the Rivian racks, just...

I plan on taking both sides off, just another spot for dirt to collect. It already says what it is enough on it, doubt I’ll forget what I’m driving.

I signed that binding agreement a few months back, but won’t get the S until ~Apr-Jun. Could I get the ‘22 credit on my ‘22 filing? Should I have clicked on that link first?

We had a first mile drive the other day and while overall we loved it (didn't have any of the QC issues you experienced), in all purpose mode "going up and down waves on a cushioned pontoon" is a great way to describe the ride. This was our only complaint.

Thinking about going the Stealth route - is it any harder to keep clean/looking good than gloss PPF? We’ll be getting our S dirty/muddy on a regular basis on the way to our cabin.

Rivian doesn’t have auto reprogramming for wheelsets?? On my cayenne You just tap the new wheel size on the settings screen and after ~10 min of driving over 15mph it recognizes the new size.

Ha, I posted this same question on a FB group and the 1st response was “tell me you’re new to EVs without telling me you’re new to EVs” so I deleted it, thought I asked some kind of taboo question…guess it was just a dickhead. And yes, I’m new to EVs. Can’t wait to put this kind of mileage on...

I was afraid this was going to be the case. Added heated Truck-lites to the Jeep and it solved the problem, but visibility was significantly degraded before. Highly unlikely Rivian will ever have a fix (or aftermarket) due to the headlights being tied into a larger unit.

I feel you. Maybe it has something to do with location to SC? Im less than 1 mile from Denver SC

Exact same boat. I guess living less than a mile from a SC helps. Only downside is watching all the Rivians go by, ha

Confirmed - I was originally Oct-Dec 22, then first half 2023, now Apr-June 23 (11/20 R1Srez date). A little further away than I was hoping but glad to be getting a 2023
