    Performance and Usability Updates: Improved ride height adjustments and acceleration response. Faster DC fast charging for vehicles with Large and Max battery packs. Enhanced cabin heating for colder climates. I’m excited about these potential improvements Or any improvements that improve...
  2. Sooo About that 2024.47 Enhanced Acceleration

    I think there may be some subtle differences between vehicles, as I noticed with the loaner I drove. It was nothing crazy, but to me it just felt more connected. Clearly it would be a case of different strokes for different folks, just as with regen settings. Some like more. Some like less. Some...
  3. Sooo About that 2024.47 Enhanced Acceleration

    Personally, I don’t need or want any more power than my quad R1T already has. It is stupid frickin’ fast!!! However, I would like the accelerator pedal to be more responsive - more like in sport mode. As it is, in all purpose mode, it seems to require just a tad to much throw to get going, a...
  4. EVs Mooch Off, Do Not Pay Fair Share for Road Usage

    I agree. The concept is fine, but the devil is in the details. Charging every Rivian owner the same registration fee, at least that portion related to a road tax, is not equitable. If I drive my Rivian 8,000 miles per year and pay the same road tax registration fee as somebody who drives 25,000...
  5. Apple Music quit. WTH.

    I fixed it!! Woo-hoo!. I followed David’s routine and it worked. The T sat for a short spell - not sure if this is necessary. Next, I logged out of my Apple Music account in the Rivian. THEN, I did a software reset. After the reset, I logged back into my Apple Music account and all was back to...
  6. EVs Mooch Off, Do Not Pay Fair Share for Road Usage

    I agree that EV owners should pay their FAIR share to maintain the roads. However, an EV tax should be based on annual miles driven. This is baked into the gasoline taxes. Charging a flat rate tax for EV’s penalizes the low mileage EV drivers, while subsidizing the high mileage drivers. The tax...
  7. Apple Music quit. WTH.

    Making progress. I just open the Apple Music app to give it a try, The Home, Radio, and Browse tabs weren’t working. However, the Library tab appears to be working. So, for now, I do have music, if not a fully functioning Apple Music app.
  8. Apple Music quit. WTH.

    Well, I’ve done most of this, Including logging out of and into my Apple Music account, with no luck. I will do it in the order you did - log out of Apple, software reset, then log back into Apple - and see what happens.
  9. Apple Music quit. WTH.

    That is not what I want to hear! Iā€˜m paying good money to have Connect+ with Apple Music being a key feature, for me. Using my phone is not an acceptable solution!! I hope this is a temporary setback.
  10. Apple Music quit. WTH.

    I got that and will try it in the morning. Even if it works, I suspect that is not a cure, but may have diagnostic value. I will play with it, tomorrow, along with trying all the music tabs, which I think I have already done. Who knows? Maybe it will all resolve itself with a good night’s...
  11. Apple Music quit. WTH.

    As noted, I am using Bluetooth from my iPhone to play music, just fine.
  12. Apple Music quit. WTH.

    Right now, I at home. However, I’ve done plenty of driving in the last 48 hours. Wherever Iā€˜ve been it has not worked. Yesterday, I was driving over the Sierras and thought the crappy AT&T coverage might have been the problem. However, when I got back into known coverage areas, the issue was the...
  13. Apple Music quit. WTH.

    Signed out of and back into my Rivian account with no luck. Did the same with my Apple Music account (in the car) with no luck.
  14. Apple Music quit. WTH.

    Yup. It acts like it loading, but never does. It’s been like this for two days. I will try to log out of and log back into my Rivian/Connect account to see if that does anything.
  15. Apple Music quit. WTH.

    Apple Music works fine when using my iPhone and the Bluetooth connection. Of course, that requires that I have the phone and it doesn’t sound as good. Up until yesterday, I never had a problem with Apple Music.
  16. Apple Music quit. WTH.

    My Apple Music is MIA. Just quit the other day. Iā€˜ve tried software and system resets to no avail. The display says itā€˜s ā€œloading contentā€ then says ā€No media available here.ā€ And no, I’m not out in the sticks with no service, and my Connect+ and Apple subscriptions are paid up. Anybody found a...
  17. Forbes - Rare Earth Ban (Chinese) Fuels Doubt About The Viability Of The US Auto Industry

    Full disclosure - I have not read the article, nor do I intend to. I would take ANYTHING that Forbes says with a massive grain of salt. IMHO, it’s a very unreliable source of information.
  18. Brutal Vampire Drain

    Now, this is interesting. As previously noted, I’ve been tracking my Vampire Drain for the last few weeks, by comparing Trip Meter A (reset daily) to Trip Meter (constantly running). Surprisingly, since the latest software update 2024.43.01, it sure appears that my Vampire drain has been...
  19. Rivian reliability is a problem

    I’ve had a ton of cars in my time - from high performance sports cars to p/u’s to vans/wagons, to 4-wheel off roaders. I actually traded in my beloved Toyota FJ for the R1T. This was the most I have ever spent on car, so it was a leap of faith. So, has my T had a couple of issues? Well, yes...
