  1. Rivian took over my Tesla Supercharging session and charged me more than double?

    ^^^^THIS^^^^ Same thing happened to me because I was used to just driving up in our Y and plugging in. I went through the Tesla app chose the cabinet and plugged in before the app activated the cabinet and my R1T defaulted to plug and charge.
  2. Need confirmation of 3rd party internet connectivity

    For work I connect to my Rivian via VPN and do everything I can at home on my work computer including streaming anything work appropriate. Never been an issue. If you want me to test anything else, you'll need to venmo some $. Not fanboy annoyed at your request, just stunned that someone can...
  3. Anyone know Rivian's warranty policy on cracked wheels?

    Warranties are for manufacturing defects, recalls and/or TSB's. Breaking a wheel is not going to be eligible for any wheel warranty claim, not even goodwill in my opinion. Upon removing the tire, they'll easily see the impact portion where the crack began.
  4. Do I get a better trade in offer from Rivian if I have PDR done on a couple of small dents first?

    I've never heard of Rivian SC team even looking at trades to see if they represent what you put in about your trade when placing an order. In my case Lexus 570LX over 100K miles, they just took the keys, locked the truck until I needed to swap my stuff. They unlocked, I swapped my stuff and...
  5. Rival: EX60 Configurator opening this month

    The Volvo is about as Chinese as we'll see an EV in the US for a long while. I had a deposit on an EX30 and while the vehicle almost had me, the pricing was 50K+ on launch with zero under that. I got my deposit back as it just wasn't that nice, more weird than anything
  6. When will R1 get Gen 3 hardware?

    Rivian isn't going to be able to raise R1 pricing in the foreseeable future, so I'd guess R3 will arrive and R2 will be mature way before R1 is refreshed. They need a very mature R2 revenue stream and new R3 to inject cashflow into more R1 R&D.
  7. R2 Resale Market

    I don't see the opportunity to flip an R2 like a Bronco, MachE, or Maverick. It's going to be a regularly produced EV and there just isn't enough instant I have to have it now demand. For an existing Rivian owner on this site, absolutely flip away, but we probably all have reservations by now...
  8. Jacking with underside panels removed-jack pads required?

    get the magnetic pucks they are easier to use. There is also a jack/stand device that uses the puck with the jack and then become a stand. Can't remember the brand.
  9. R2 Heat Pump? Coming? Standard? Option?

    Heat pumps are significantly more efficient than regular HVAC and show more in home applications as they are the most significant portion of energy usage. I don't think the difference between a heat pump and not would be significant in driving, but in warming/cooling the car initially before...
  10. TSB for Replacing Coolant Expansion Tank and Hose

    They have a TSB and are fixing it, that's nothing like Saab.
  11. Question on our audio systems....

    I can't fathom those numbers, 2023 R1T. For me listening to Apple Music 6 is normal, 7 is loud, with anything above 8 almost deafening. Cannot imagine over 10, my ears would be ringing or blown out. Listen to Metallica, Royal Blood, Ozzy, Janes Addiction all at 6 or 7 and you can hear it...
  12. Official: R2 & R1 Crossbars NOT compatible / interchangeable (Rivian confirmation statement)

    Until an adapter is marketed by a 3D printer......
  13. Ineos Grenadier drive event

    Saw one out doing errands and had to double take it wasn't a restored LR. Very neat vehicle although owner knew nothing about it which I found kinda strange.....Had 15K miles on it already.
  14. Are There Alternatives to Rivian Level2 Charger?

    Use whatever reputable branded charger you can get a decent price whether hard wired or 14-50 plugged. Rivian, Tesla, Chargepoint are all good choices. I have a Charge point Flex (off Amazon) and it's great with the ability to switch from j1772 to NACS quickly if we ever become a consistent...
  15. Ford $30K Midsize EV Pickup (Ranchero) - News & Info

    Maverick sized truck, but a universe platform for whatever they want.....Next bronco sport EV most likely. Love it that more choices are coming. Not for me, but there is no R2T, so this and toyota's thing may be the only players out there in smaller EV trucks.
  16. Routing Starlink cable from crossbar into gear tunnel outlet

    Some of their cables are flat or used to be. I bet you can find a replacement flat cable, I've seen them for ethernet and other data cables, probably on their site or amazon.
  17. Charging range dropped 8 percent in 2 hours

    Some sort of user error but not unheard of case of Rivian continuing to HVAC the vehicle. Not sure why it's max heat, but a touch to defrost botton may have occurred. I the cases I've seen. Was the car locked in the App? If you leave the vehicle with a door slightly ajar it will continue to...
  18. R1 and R2 crossbars not compatible (don't fit) - now officially confirmed by Rivian

    Has anyone asked Rivian at an R2 showing, because the actual bar that locks into the claw looks identical.
  19. Tesla to upgrade all HW3 cameras and computers to HW4 - RJ, your move.

    The seemingly illogical strategy idea is exactly the behavior incentivized in his pay package thats worth 1 trillion $. Part of that package target is 10 million FSD subscribers. If Tesla converts 4 million Teslas to HW4, a portion could subscribe to FSD towards achieving the target. Who...
  20. Don’t buy a Rivian and why?

    I've almost 30K on my R1T with no SC issues at all, so yes I deny it based on my experience. Am I standing at the top of the hill screaming this no, because they don't get a cookie for that in my opinion. If service wasn't to my expectation I would be gone period. Why I bought large Lexus...
