Today I finally weighed a 2025 R1T Dual Wheel Tire Combo. I have a good scale and it comes in at 75 pounds. Im going camping off road and just purchased a used wheel/tire of Ebay and wanted to make sure I had the right tools to change it. The lugs are (at least) 140 ft lb tight so you need...
Ok thanks everyone. So the answer is YES there is a technical reason why our trucks cant be rear drive biased - no physical disconnect installed on the front motor. I knew about it being FWD before buying and bought it anyway - love the truck so all is well. Maybe they will rear bias the R2.
Ahh thank you. I was under the assumption that there was no physical connect/disconnect at all. Instead it was all electronics to the motors (either send electricity to the motor, or dont). My model 3 collapses the electrical field to allow the front motor to free wheel when not needed.
I have a 2025 R1T dual large+ pack. It can be put in normal driving mode which is front wheel drive - and if slip is noticed it becomes all wheel drive. In snow mode or off road mode it is continuously all wheel drive. My understanding is that this is the case with all models.
Is there a...
I have a large+ 2025 R1T Dual also. I charge it to 100% often with no adverse affects. In the winter here in Michigan that is a definite advantage to eek out some more range. As others mentioned, when I charge to 100% I can drive 10 to 20 miles while the display reports 100%. Efficiency...
They did have it for 8 days. They moved up the date they took it in as I think they prioritized because it was a suspension error. When I got there the tech and I took it for a test drive at their request, which surprised me but glad they did it. They also did an alignment which corrected a...
Great analysis. I would also contend that weight has a significant factor on range. On my Tesla Model 3 performance I switched to 18 inch wheels (stock is 20) and lowered the weight of each wheel/tire combo 10 pounds. So 40 pounds overall. Rotating unsprung weight is the worst for...
Update...Took in for service in Madison Heights Michigan. They resolved the issue and the fix is listed below. While in service they supplied a 2023 R1S Quad loaner so I can't complain there.

Confirmed that suspension telltale is present. Scanned codes, multiple codes set for left...
My Gen 2 R1T just started getting this message also. When the message is active I cant change drive modes, right heights, or stiffness. Many times a front sensor error accompanies the message and stability control is also disabled. The truck rides very stiff when this happens also so I...
It was a hybrid of DIY and contractors. For the racking (my panels are ground mounted) and panel installation we used Mid-America Solar. We purchased the sol-ark 15k whole house inverter and 30kwh of Signature Solar Lifepower 4 batteries. Did the trenching and rough wiring myself and hired an...
We also have a SOL ARK 15K with 15KW of solar, 30kwh of signature solar battery. The Solar 15K has been rock solid for the 2 years we have had it. It is between the utility disconnect and our main house panel so it acts as a whole house UPS. When the grid drops we usually don't even know...
Received my leased 2025 R1T September 28, 2024. Paid the lease off last week. The lease was through Chase Financial Services, who manages the Rivian leases. Logged onto to Chase and requested the buy out amount. This was the depreciation portion of the remaining payments of my 2 year...
Picked up my R1T last Saturday and it came with a "Large Plus" battery even though I ordered a Large. The service center either didn't know the KWH of the pack or weren't saying. Would like to know if this is a Max battery and where the software limit kicks in. If it is on the top end...
Yes picked up one today. The battery is listed as "Large Plus" even though ordered and paid for Large. Rumor has it they are installing Max packs and software limiting them.
Just picked up my Large+ 2025 R1T. The display said it was charged to 97% and showed a range of 327 miles when picked up. Drove it 65 miles home at ~3 miles per kwh and arrived home with 300 miles / 88% of range.
The guide said to charge it to 85% for normal driving. But he didn't seem to...
Ordered a 2025 R1T Adventure Dual Large on June 6th 2024.
Ordered a dual motor cybertruck on November 23rd, 2019 - not willing to pay extra 20k for foundation edition.
Will be interesting to see which is available first.
Regardless, plan on sticking with the R1T.
