  1. Overland Vehicle Systems Dry Box 95qt -- Fits Under Tonneau Cover

    Hey All. Just got 2 of these dry boxes from Overland Vehicle systems: https://overlandvehiclesystems.com/d-b-s-dark-grey-95-qt-dry-box-with-drain-and-bottle-opener/ I chose these over the Roam Adventure Co boxes of a similar size because they were slightly bigger and at 16.8” tall they fit...
  2. R1T Tonneau Cover Calibration (How-To Steps)

    Hadn't seen this posted, service asked me to do a tonneau cover calibration yesterday. Apparently it was added to one of the recent updates. Press the external tonneau button 3 times quickly and then hold for 5-7 seconds. Next open fully and close fully the tonneau cover. When successful I...
  3. Electric Camper Van Concept

    https://electrek.co/2022/07/08/electricbrands-xbus-camper/ Ok I realize this is the definition of vaporware. Cool that people are actually thinking about these concepts at least. Seems laughable that they are going to achieve a >100 mile range with a 10 kWh battery, but I guess exaggerated...
  4. NW BEV Overlanding Club

    Who wants to form an BEV overlanding club in the PNW? Nothing too serious, just a group of people wanting to explore what is possible with a BEV and overlanding. Obviously based on my post history I have been trying to push the envelope a bit, testing out what might be possible...
  5. EA Station in Sandy OR

    Just an FYI it looks like the EA station in Sandy OR is finally live. It is located at the Fred Meyer. It has 4 150kW stalls. Apparently it was classified as an urban station so that is why no 350kW.
  6. R1T Overlanding Adventure. Steens, Alvord Desert, Central OR

    Took a trip in my R1T to southeastern Oregon. Both a charging desert and an actual desert involved. Getting there: Left Sandy OR with 93% SOC and drove straight through to the EA station at Walmart in Bend OR. I arrived with ~29% SOC and charged to 83% SOC in 38 min. Top speed of 210kW...
  7. Skinny Guy Campers

    Hey all. Came across this truck bed camper. Looks like they have a model for a 4.5ft bed and specifically mention the R1T. Would love to see one fit on an R1T. From the design it looks like you might still be able to access the spare (maybe depending on which model you choose)...
  8. R1T camping/overlanding adventure! Ochoco National Forest.

    Now that I have gotten my setup nearly dialed in and my knee has healed up enough here is my first camping/overlanding mission in my Truck. Started in Sandy OR at home with about 75% SOC then headed over Mt Hood on HWY 26 to a Chargepoint station in Madras, OR (62.5kW). I arrived at 35% and I...
  9. Rivian Service Debacle!

    I had my truck in for service the week ending Friday May 13th, they had the truck for a week to fix some panel gap/alignment issues, provide a wristband key and a few other minor issues. When I got the truck back on the 13th of May I instantly noticed that they had scratched my truck, ~3 places...
  10. HVAC system. Separate control for heat/AC

    How does everyone feel about the HVAC system? My biggest complaint is that I would like to be able to separately operate the heater or the AC rather than both on or both off. Super annoying to have cold air blowing on you when it is 40 degrees outside for example. Am I missing something?
  11. IKamper X-Cover 2.0 Mini RTT (roof top tent) on my R1T

    Install was mostly easy, setup is quick. Tent materials are high quality in my opinion. Love the roof windows. Still room for a solar shower on the side.
  12. My R1T in Moab [Video]

    Hey all - Here is my video from Moab Utah in my R1T. I was on a trail called Fins and Things in Sand Flats - North Entrance to Mile 7.7 exit - It was not a trail I had any previous experience on and I am not an experienced off-roader. I aired down to about 36 psi but it has been suggested I...
  13. My truck was unable to DC fast charge! Briefly stuck in CA.

    So left Flagstaff this morning to head back home to Oregon. Made two charging stops in AZ on my way to CA. Stopped in Barstow CA to charge at the EA station but couldn’t get my R1T to start charging. EA was no help. Waiting on engineering support at Rivian…. At a 6.6kW slow charger but with...

  15. What kind of efficiency are you getting in your R1?

    I know we have watched a whole lot of videos, range tests, etc. For example watching the latest Out of Spec Motoring video from @OutofSpecKyle I see he was able to get ~2.2 mi/kWh with an average speed >70mph traveling to flagstaff. I believe he was using conserve mode for that leg of the...

    Hey all, Amazon delivered my ICECO GO20 Dual Zone cooler this morning. Thought I would post some photos. It’s not the largest cooler/refrigerator/freezer but it fits in the gear tunnel or the front trunk. Will add more details as I try it out. First test and experience. Plugged into the...

  18. Owners, how is your paint holding up?

    To other owners, specifically those without PPF, how do you think your paint is holding up? I have had my truck 2.5 weeks and driven 1500 miles. Some of the issues are obvious, for example small rock chips on the side behind the front tire and on the front end. I am also seeing some white...

    A foot of snow was no issue.. Now the trees blocking the road were another thing….
