  1. Anyone tried a 1UP hitch rack on an R1S

    I have a 1-up rack that I use with my R1T. It was fine in the down position and could be raised 45 degrees, but not 90 degrees without hitting the tailgate. It just needed to be 1.5” further out. I tried various extenders, but couldn’t find anything that wasn’t somewhat loose. The piece that...
  2. Where is the new Gen2 Quad???

    I have an R1T Quad Motor. I have launched numerous times and it has never felt out of control - impressively so - other than the one time I foolishly did so on a gravel road. You could hear and feel it scrambling for traction. It was definitely impressive how well it did, just stupid of me to do...

    Wow - Abbey from service just called back. They've been able to reschedule the replacement for tomorrow!!
  4. I came out yesterday morning to the dreaded “immediately replace 12 V battery alert”

    Coincidentally, I received the same notice this morning. I was able to drive to work without issue. I just got off the phone with a RIVIAN service person. She scheduled a mobile service person to come out and replace the battery(ies) in a couple of weeks, saying she'd speed that up if possible...

  6. Any Chicago locals who can lend Tesla Adapter?

    I have the A2Z adapter which is brand new. I haven't needed to use it, and the Rivian adapter is here now. I live in MI, but as it happens will be heading to Chicago tomorrow for work. I'm staying at the Hyatt Regency on Wacker and will be heading home Friday evening. If you'd be able to pick it...

    If the wiring doesn't short from water ingress, surely it will fail from the stress concentration of sitting on those sharp casting ribs in time.
  10. RJ interview on Munro Live: Discussing R2 / R3 Reveal

  11. Damn good software architecture as moat

    Alternative perspective: less likely to have to fight your partner for your vehicle :like:.
  12. Indications of an R1 refresh

    Service center capacity is a current constraint, which has to be solved anyhow. Once done, ability to retrofit things like the new steering wheel could be an attractive revenue stream. Some additional software management complexity might make it more trouble than it’s worth though I suppose.

  14. BMW: EV’s are Dead, buy Hydrogen Fuel Cells Vehicles

    I remember hearing someone who studies battery technology discuss breakthrough improvements. He said that some new "breakthrough" is regularly announced as having been invented or demonstrated in the lab. However, if you look back over history, there has been a steady progression of improvement...
  15. Consumer Reports 10 Most Satisfying Cars and SUVs for 2023 -- R1T & R1S Both Make List

    Maybe it's because reviewers only drive the vehicle for a short period of time when they're on the initial steepest part of the learning curve, but I don't agree with any of these criticisms. The regenerative breaking I have set on high, it took less than 15 minutes to get used to (with a couple...

  17. Onboard air compressor inaccurate or tpms?

    My air compressor used to be dead on; now it’s 7-9 psi high. I measure with a digital air pressure gauge and deflate to get to 48 psi. TPMS matches digital gauge closely.
  18. Been using my R1T since Oct ‘22 as primary work truck in Landscaping business

    I had wiper blades changed once at the Audi dealer for a stupid price. They also tried to charge a $15 per blade “environmental disposal fee”.
  19. What Was Your Previous Daily Driver Before Rivian?

    2016 Audi TTS, Daytona Grey. Fun car. Loved the look and the clean interior design. Surprisingly good utility with rear seats folded down given hatch and nice to have a little rarity. Ride is a bit rough even with suspension in comfort mode on rougher surfaces (like the 1.5 mile gravel road to...
