This is the video I am referring to. He surprisingly showed the results upfront in this 2+ hour video. See attached screenshot for the part that caught my attention, where he referenced results from other Rivians
And we can play with the data from his results on his website...
For what it may be worth, as of last month, I have a 1 year old R1S Quad Launch Edition with 30k miles and a new R1S Dual Max Pack (both w/ 20" wheels) . . . unfortunately, I'm not seeing improved efficiency, nor more real world range. My first drive after delivery of the Dual Max was a drive...
I installed mine yesterday, with the help of a friend who had jack stands. Took around 2 hours. And I referred to this post, to confirm that yes I only needed to remove 4 17 mm bolts, and 5 T55 screws.
I've heard from Wilco Offroad now. I spoke with Shane Morris sales & distribution mgr and more, x102 , 877-945-2684
He said I should call back in a month, after his monthly meeting with ownership, as they are contemplating / piloting a version of the Hitchgate Solo with a ~4”+ longer tongue for...
I don't have the Rigd one, but @gtrivian said he does. The one I have, document in this string, blocks the rear camera and sensors significantly enough to be useless and annoying.
I almost bought one, too, but they said my bike rack and 2 e-bikes exceed the 125 lb weight limit on their additional hitch. I’m waiting for Wilco Off-road to get back to me now.
1) Full size Rivian 20" spare wheel and tire ~86 lbs +
2) 1UpUSA Super Duty Double bike rack weight ~50 lbs +
3)...
I’ve put almost 30k miles on my R1S over the last 12 months, with mostly Level 3 charging, and it’s clear that the battery needs to be at least 72 degrees to charge at its max capabilities (215 kw). If at 68 degrees, for example, then it takes a few minutes of Level 3 charging for it to heat up...
White Rim Trail every 2 or 3 years, Hurrah Pass, Chicken Corners, Lockhart Basin / Canyon. I’ve driven every road in the Needles District, including any requiring permits or only open part of the year, but don’t feel like I need to again. I am happy that I did Elephant Hill with my FJ, but I did...
I’m at the Denver Service Center right now. They say NACS adapters will start shipping middle of April and will be prioritized based on how long the owner has had the vehicle.
FWIW Megawatt said my sliders should be shipping any day … first batch for the R1S.
I’m on Colorado trails twice per month, and Utah trails Spring and Fall. 28k miles over 12 months

I’m looking to buy either just the wheel or wheel + tire combo as a full size spare tire for my R1S. I’m willing to go in on a set of 4 if can find 3 more people to join me, commit.
I’ll also ask a service center rep in person next time I’m there as using Rivian’s 888 # in the Gear Shop got me...
As a Canadian, you may know more about this than me. My only experience about importing a US vehicle to Canada is this. I bought my customized (for off roading) FJ from a Coloradan who moved to Canada. He tried to work with the Canadian (or Province’s) equivalent of the Colorado motor vehicle...
