"Reduced the speedometer offset, so it indicates only 1-2 mph more than vehicle speed?" (close enough quote). I have an idea! Why not have the speedometer tell you exactly how fast you're moving? Deeerrr-r-rr ?
C'mon Rivian. I can't stand corporate nannies. I guess I'll be setting my...
I've always been fond of asedeals.com for this type of stuff. I bought a tire changer, wheel balancer, large tool box, and some other misc tools from them over the years. They offer good values in my opinion.
Tested mine and verified, no alarm. I think this is a huge security flaw. The fact that the Rivian has computer controlled switches for everything means this should be an easy fix. When the truck is locked, it should be on lockdown, including the center console. Nothing should work besides...
Okay, I'll bite. How did you manage that? Was it downhill and downwind the whole way? I commute fairly flat through a windy area about 100 miles a day. I'm lucky to get 2 Mi per kWh, but then again I usually do about 80 mph most of the way. I also have the 20" AT's.
That sort of looks like it could be a single motor to drive front and rear differentials. It wouldn't make sense for that to be one of the "dual motors." The R1's don't need 1200 hp (cept for mine ;)). It will be interesting to see what's coming with this. Silvia is awesome.
I think it is, as my steering wheel is ever so slightly turned left in the High setting. As I mentioned in the post above, try putting it in Off-Road/High/Rally or General Purpose and driving about your day. It rides really nice, better visibility, and handles just fine while staying in the...
They added this Auto button to All-Purpose and Conserve. It basically behaves the same as before, but now you can turn Auto back on without changing drive modes. I don't see it being useful. I do appreciate the auto leveling reduction a lot, though.
The ride is noticeably nicer in...
Not sure what app Rivian is referring to. Could someone please show me how to open my tonneau cover from the app cause... uh... nope. Lock/unlock, turn on the climate control (but not adjust it), and viewing charging is about it, at least on the iPhone app that is.
The problem with the covers is clearly friction and thus, lube is the answer. I used some armor-all type stuff I had laying around and have a handy Milwaukee M18 blower that is perfect for blowing crap off the cover before opening it, if it has been sitting. Seems to be working fine. I worry...
Hey friends,
Just to help owners feel at ease regarding the latest update... I called Rivian to make sure the update was correct, given that it appears to be dated before the previous update of 2022.XX.03. They confirmed with the OTA team, the version name is not indicative of the...
My thoughts exactly. Who are they to tell me what I need or want, but that appears to be the intention. I would be perfectly fine with a big red message that says you shouldn’t do this, but you still can if you want to.
I think it may be trying to self level sometimes when parked. I wish they would explain the hows and whys for the suspension. Here we are just speculating about how it works vs how it’s supposed to work. You would think they would explain it in detail if this many people are wondering if it’s...
I often do the same thing. So why can’t we leave it in any other setting and have the same result? That’s all I’m saying. For sure someone will claim it’s for safety, but I have a hard time believing the R1T is dangerous at highway speeds at the highest ride height. I’ll buy that it’s less...
Just updated tonight, but haven’t driven it yet. Hopefully this is true, though I didn’t read anything about suspension tweaks in the update notes.
[Update: I found a work around to keep the suspension at “High” when driving at any speed. Before leaving my driveway, I put the truck in ”off road, rally.” Thanks to the new update, it stayed in that mode while I was in the gym and resumed it when I got back in. I don;t see myself doing...
I like the idea of ditching Gary and just having the video feed show up on the screen at max brightness so they get the idea really quick. It could even have the red recording dot in the corner. As for these girls…. Man if I saw them doing that, I would park my car right in front of theirs and...
I was told by my guide they had to remove it from my configuration, but I would be able to buy it at a later date for the original price as an early preorder holder. I was hoping they were out there and just slow to be produced, but it sounds like they really are vaporware at this point, just...
