And an Amazon seat cover...
Firestone
Get the Lifetime alignment balancing and rotation package.
Regardless my R1T has 60K and needed alignment only once.
I don't do much rotation and yet, my original tires lasted 40K+
Rented similar trailer from sunbelt many times until I bought my own tilt down deck trailer. I'm in Los Angeles and around here there are all equipped with electric breaks hence 7 pin connector. Regardless, they have all the adopters and hitch balls you would need. That brings the question...
I'm at 58K. Vin 0013xx.
The tuck is a working truck and does perform well. Minimal repairs. The only major expense other than power is cost of replacing the front windshield. I'm on No.3 and it is cracked .......
I tow a lot. mostly construction equipment and large size air conditioning unit...
As my R1T is quickly approaching 60K miles, I started looking for an extended warranty. So far Rivian Management has declined providing an extended warranty and although my truck is relatively very reliable, I'm looking for a third party to buy that extended warranty.
Anyone with info? I'm...
I believe it can be programed into the software as the vehicle has sonar in the back and proximity sensors for the mirror. Yet, probably not a priority for management as they working on looks instead of function.
Everybody I know who drive a Rivian R1T had to replace the windshield at least once....
I'm driving with my third windshield cracked just because it is not yet a safety issue.
Look through the threads. there are many discussions on the low quality of the glass.
Rivian reply, It meets minimum...
I think it's mostly depends on the tire thread, your driving style and type of drives you do.
Also, don't trust the trip efficiency calculation as it is not accurate. For example my trip 1 calculator never reset and show 55K mils, 25K Kwh charged and 1.7 efficiency. That doesn't add up...
I don't like the new look and yet, it doesn't bother me at all.
What does bother me is spending time and effort (money) on redesign interface elements that works well (some great and some les) instead of creating NEW features like the turn video.
For example, I would like to see the drive...
Nice Yamaha R1.... When you finally get your R1T please promote a "Loading Mode" (back goes down, front goes up) for motorcycle loading. I gave up making this request...
1.0 MPK is low based on my experience. I'm an HVAC and electrical contractor in Los Angeles and I'm towing large size equipment, scissor lifts and even my forklift. Total weight runs between 4k to 11K Lb. I have been able to get 1.4 MPK. I'm VERY happy with the vehicle performance especially in...
Thanks for your input.
I still think that Rivian does not show strong management and clear direction to profitability. As competition from cheap imports will increase and without investments in infrastructure EV's manufacturers will struggle to stay afloat.
I do not agree with your analysis. Non of it is based on facts.
"The Biden admin has been very friendly to the oil industry" ARE YOU KIDDING ME? he is THE WORST. you need to change you news info outlet.
I do agree that EV are better and yet, people will not buy them until charging...
I would like to be wrong but I don't see the market for EV improving without HUGE investment in supper charging stations. considering the increased competition and the likelihood for oil prices to fall with a new administration, the head winds are only going to be stronger.
It seems that most people on this thread don't have a clue on how markets and investment works. Everyone is forgetting that rivian is loosing money on every vehicle that they sale. That difference is being financed by investors like myself who at one point owned 2500 shares. As management keeps...
