  1. Rivian confirms no Meridian Sound System in my R1S. It has in-house audio system

    For years? How many do you think? I shouldn't post but have been drinking for a celebration and taking a break from work but really 10 years 20? I got my R1T in May and have a very low VIN number so I expect is isn't years. Do you want to talk about my CyberTruck reservation and bait and switch...
  2. Nervous about Rivian purchase as date draws nearer

    I had a CyberTruck reservation before I ever learned about Rivian. I had some emails and updates along the way from Rivian nothing from Tesla. I got my Rivian R1T in May, but have had zero communications from Tesla cybertruck on how to cancel and get my money back. I would choose Rivian every...
  3. Road Trip - recommendations please!

    I used RAN to get from Renton (Seattle) to Fortuna CA a week or so ago. My favorite stop was a bit out of the way north of Crescent City CA. Jedediah Smith Redwoods state park. Specifically the stops off 199. Amazing trees! I would also take the 1 block detour in Eureka CA to the Carson mansion...
  4. Delivered yesterday - Forest Green R1T. Already installed 20" bronze wheels

    That is a fine looking truck! I think that was my original color. I accepted the Rivian Blue 9 months ago but you did good. That color is fire!
  5. 350KW EVGO charger maxed at 70KW and is my only option, any idea why? Rivian no help.

    Wow! I would expect you to get to 80% in that amount of time. I just got back today from a trip from WA to OR. A week ago I used the RAN to drive to northern CA and I never spent more than 20 minutes at a charging station. Having said that you have to pay attention, in the RAN I have seen 18...
  6. Who Hasn’t Had a Service Call?

    I suspect I'm around 8k miles. Driven from WA to ID, OR, CA, NV and UT. No issues so far. Got truck end of May 22.
  7. 1500 Flawless Miles on the RAN Rivian Adventure Network

    I did almost that exact trip last week. Renton WA to Fortuna CA but I did charge in Aberdeen WA. Got lucky and had some beautiful days. Don't think I ever spent more than 25 minutes charging. Quick and easy other than the construction in Coos Bay.
  8. 4 hr trip for a "first mile" - is it worth it WA to OR

    For me it made all the difference. Having said that, I have had mine since May. Come down to Renton and buy me a beer and I'll let you drive mine for an hour and answer any question you have. I got mine some time ago but driving it for real made me comfortable with the choice. Just got back from...
  9. Crested Butte Rivian charger no longer free

    Just did a trip from Seattle to Fortuna CA using only free Rivian fast chargers along the coast. I don't expect it will last forever but it was awesome! Spent most days with 55 degree sunny days in February! I charged in Aberdeen WA, Lincoln City OR, Coos Bay OR, Crescent City CA, Fortuna CA...
  10. Oregon RAN showing open in Madras and Coos Bay

    Just ending a road trip for Renton(Seattle) to Fortuna CA using the Rivian network. I charged in Aberdeen WA, Lincoln City, OR, Coos Bay, OR, Crescent City CA, and Fortuna CA. Many of them more than once and it was excellent. Very fast. There is also a charger that is west of Tillamook, maybe in...
  11. Washington GC Washer Fluid Group Buy - IT'S ON

    I'd be in for 4-5 gallons. I could meet wherever it works for you and others. A brewery in Georgetown maybe? First two beers on me for you doing all the work. I'm in Renton but whatever.
  12. For those who got R1S (or R1T) at original approximately $78k would you buy one for new price of approximately $93k?

    I'm a yes. I got my truck in May. Knowing what I know now, I would still buy without the tax credit and without original price. This truck cost me more than my first home and I'm still in. Enjoying it every day.
  13. What surprised you - preferably in a good way?

    I've got two that surprised me. Owner since May. At night when the car unlocks, light from the side mirrors light up the ground in front of the front doors to aid in climbing in. I call it the "bat signal". Surprisingly, I just noticed a month a two ago, that inside the vehicle at night the faux...
  14. Started the 8 steps and am getting cold feet. Edit: warm fuzzies now, completed the steps :)

    Jack, you posted today and already have 4 pages of posts! An impressive introduction (didn't read them all). These forums have been very helpful and comforting because of the folks that have posted their issues and failures. I think I'm now over 7 months in and was just as concerned about buying...
  15. Which car loan lender did you go in Washington state?

    I used my local credit union. I got and extra .5% off for being a member and another .5% for buying an electric vehicle. Better than I was going to get through USAA.
  16. Poll: How often do you use the Camp Speaker?

    I've used mine a fair bit. I did an Oktoberfest at the house and it lasted over six hours. I was impressed. I expected about 3 or so. Party ran down before the camp speaker. I also did an offsite retreat last month to refocus and the camp speaker was a big hit to play background music for...
  17. [Updated][Seattle Area] Rivian Roundup, Saturday 11/12/22 9a-11a

    +Thanks for setting this up! Can't wait.
  18. [Updated][Seattle Area] Rivian Roundup, Saturday 11/12/22 9a-11a

    R1T RB/OC, 21"ATs+spare, reinforced underbody, field kit, cargo crossbars (not currently on, did some runs to the dump last weekend). I do have PPF from a SeaTac location. Looking forward to meeting some folks. We should probably meet up just north of the chargers. E-NE area of the parking lot.
  19. [Updated][Seattle Area] Rivian Roundup, Saturday 11/12/22 9a-11a

    I would love that I live in Renton but I think the Fry's area is closed off. Across the street in the "Landing" Target parking lot there is a fast charger and plenty of space. Baring crazy issues at work. I'm in for where ever with my Blue R1T.
  20. The rain is finally here, PNW! And so are the sensor issues...

    Let me know how it goes. I'm in Renton but need to get that done before spring. We had a long summer but at least I could plan ahead and cool down the truck before climbing in using the app.
