Anyone hear any update on this? I know they are trying to expedite the finalization of the $6.6 billion dollar loan before the new administration comes in. Not sure if their plans for the factory hinge on this or if they can proceed without it.

Check out these other badges Rivian was considering before they decided on the final version. the jetpack one would have been pretty cool too.

I noticed this morning 4 R1Ss in the Demo Shop. Typically, those sell fast or are not available. There's even a 2025 Gen2 for those wanting to save but still get the latest version. You're welcome. Feel free to use my referral code (DAVID16859823) if you pull the trigger ...

Probably not a surprise to those of us casually tracking EVs and EV news/sales. Even with the CT receiving the $7500 tax credit, unless Tesla drastically lowers the price, its not looking good (even then I'm not sure it will increase sales significantly)...

Going on 2 years and 30k miles, still the best vehicle I have ever had the privilege of owning. Rented a Jeep 4xe this past week - sorry to all you Jeep owners, but trash compared to the R1T. Couldn't wait to get back home to my truck. Over the past 2 years have also rented/loaned the F-150...

I don't understand why there are 3 levels in the Auto setting. Isn't the point of "auto" to just turn it on and it auto-adjusts? It's actually kind of lame the way it works right now. Just give us 1 level of auto and let the system determine if it should run slow, medium, or fast. And when...

As we enter the winter season and the temps drop, I'm reminded again how range/efficiency drops in the cold weather. I think I read somewhere that allowing us to manually precondition the battery is on the product roadmap. I know if the battery is warm it will be more efficient in cold weather...

Cool new marketing tool to help folks visualize a road trip as it relates to what charging would be like. Currently only includes the 4 models they have available for purchase: Dual Standard, Dual Large, Dual Max and Tri Max. Probably a bit optimistic in its calculations. You think you could...

RJ announced two new colors on IG well over a year ago, Slate Grey and Evergreen, but they've not appeared. I figured it would come with the Gen2 refresh but all we got was Storm Blue. Seems strange to me they would only offer a new color in the Ascend trim. I think 2-3 new colors would have...

This article is either poor journalism or blatant attempt at click bait. https://electrek.co/2024/03/07/rivian-r2-electric-suv-unveiling-design-cheaper-price/ While Wassym did give indications that voice control will/should be more impactful in the future I don’t think his intent was to state...

I had a chance to demo drive the CT. Foundation series, DM, AT tires. Wasn't a very long demo so this isn't a detailed review but rather my impressions. For context I have a 2023 Gen1 R1T QM with 20" AT, OC, Meridian which I've had for almost 2 years. Conclusion: CT seems like a good...

I’ve never had a spare tire kit that has three pieces, two that are plastic and don’t connect in any way. They simply sit on top of each other. Yikes. 7000lbs on this setup does not inspire confidence. I know v2 has the puck attached to the jack and I think it’s a bigger jack so no need for...

I recently had mine replaced due to excessive wind noise. Though the noise was coming from the drivers side door. They replaced the small triangle window on the door and decided to replace the front roof applique as well. Result? Wind noise is gone from the drivers door, but loud now from...

Selling a new, never used 20” OEM Pirelli Scorpion AT tire. This is the tire only. $300 OBO. Retail is about $475 Bought it for spare but no longer need it. Its being stored in my garage in a bag, just took out for photos. I’m on the Eastside in WA near Bellevue, Redmond, Kirkland, Bothell.

It's already been slow going with folks getting PTC v2, but it looks like its delayed even further until 2025. Per Chris Hilbert on Twitter, the wording on Rivian's website used to say it'd be available in 2024 but now it states 2025. Rivian Trackr says there are rumors Rivian is workin on v3...

I noticed some black grease/reside around the interior wheel well and control arms. Looking a bit further, I noticed some green colored grease leaking out of the CV Boot/Joint area. I'm assuming that's the grease that's been "sprayed" around. I've been experiencing clicking noises when I...

can someone explain to me how the powered tonneau is cheaper than the manual? id like to return my manual to retrofit the powered one. sheesh.

Every week there are new posts about someone hearing noises from their suspension and/or front-end. I wanted to create a master thread to organize this so we can compare notes and help each other. I know some of those sounds are normal and some abnormal, so hopefully we can figure out which is...

Rivian just uploaded a bunch of Gen2 R1Ts in the Shop. Only Standard or Max packs that I see in my region. https://rivian.com/configurations/list?SORT=Featured&MODEL=R1T

For those looking for an inexpensive safety/dune flag to use with your vehicle, this one works on the Rivian OEM crossbars. It was $16 when I bought it. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0CSFDS7TY
