  1. Dealer tactics or legit: lease R1S for one-year now with option to terminate/cancel lease when R2 comes out

    You won't come out ahead with any lease, just not the way they are designed. unless it's a limited vehicle that's HOT at the moment of trade in. I can think of a few cases pandemic and post like the Maverick/Bronco where everyone wanted one but they couldn't get one. Maverick/Bronco early...
  2. Do my tires need replacement?

    You should start planning for replacement or schedule it soon. At that amount of wear on OEM Pirelli's I noticed in heavy rain my T was definitely not as planted especially on moderate speed turns (i.e. on ramps) where it slid a bit. Nothing squarely or dangerous, but I really didn't have an...
  3. New Energy App has a major flaw….

    Fine but kind of useless. No-one stares at a gas gauge in an ICE vehicle this much, still don't understand the appeal. Drive, Charge, Drive, repeat as necessary.....
  4. Farewell - sold my R1T QM and moved to Tesla MY26 - some thoughts and comparison

    We have both an Gen 1R1T and 25 Model Y and to me they are apples and oranges with no comparison except hardware and electronics. Model Y heat pump is better than R1T non heat pump, but G2 has heat pumps R1T is a truck with capabilities beyond Y. Y is a car with efficiency 50-100% (4-5kw/Mi)...
  5. Tips for taking car on Amtrak auto train

    I did a reverse trip from Orlando to Lorton and back staying a week in the NE on a motorcycle trip. They are professionals, palletized the bike and I got on the train. Steak dinner, some drinks and a movie and I went to sleep. Woke up in Lorton, VA, got on the bike and toured VT, NH, MA, MI...
  6. Is Charging R1S Overnight Required or Optional?

    100% on the money. There are lots of apps and websites to see what available and unavailable charging infrastructure there is around you. Worse case it can help inform you if you decide to rent somewhere else, they might have charging on site as some complexes do. You also can lobby your...
  7. Is Charging R1S Overnight Required or Optional?

    Look around your area for free/subsidized options. For example across the street from work a little strip center has two free chargers. On off weekdays (m-t) I go in early, plug in and get 16 miles per hour of charging. I do have charging at home, but sometimes I just want to top off 50-100...
  8. "Your Rivian needs to be inspected"

    You got screwed, I was identified as an executor of a now dead Nigerian prince and they're going to deposit 23 million dollars in my account. All I had to do is give them my name, social security number, both sides of my drivers license, birth certificate, passport and routing/account...
  9. Post your commute stats - New energy monitor is great!

    Mixed highway, HOV and neighborhood this morning.
  10. Parallel Parking Assist - When?

    Was never announced, isn't coming before everyone forgets about this thread and in real life no-one uses this feature regularly enough to even discuss it. I've used with a few brands over the last decade and other than the wow factor *my car parks itself!", it's a slow and useless feature same...
  11. June Lease Offers

    Wrong forum.....Mods please move to Ordering, Pricing, Leasing, Production, Delivery, Tax Credit
  12. Dometic TRT 140 Rooftop Tent Review (Surprisingly Awesome)

    It seems positively tiny with enough space to use my 1up bike rack for Biking/Camping trips next to it. Feels like good engineering a they are a well thought of brand in other spaces. Do you have a picture of it setup on your T?
  13. Rivian (driver) blamed for death of a teen hit in school parking lot

    The Rivian was not blamed for the death of the teen, the Driver was. Clickbait title. Because student pick ups are done at very slow speeds, there is speculation that the Rivian’s driver may have inadvertently hit the gas pedal instead of the vehicle’s brakes, leading to a chain reaction and...
  14. 2025.18 Software Update Overview / Review (Video)

    Hysterical the phantom motorcycle next to him. My G1 R1T show a motorcycle anytime a vehicle has off-road ish tires, including landscaping trucks and tractor trailers. Glad I didn't spend another $30-$40k to get the same phantoms.
  15. Rivian Quad timing information from the company?

    They aren't saying because they'll be held to it and the answer is simply they don't have a date. They're working on it and will announce something when they are sure.
  16. R2 in new gray / silver color - video & photos (updated with in-studio look)

    350 miles seems like bladder busting enough for me. It's this and/or a Scout for us in 2027.
  17. Reminiscence: Photos of Rivian R1T Prototypes in the Documentary, "Long Way Up" (2020)

    The OG reason I bought my T and watching the new Long Way.....UGH need to wait until Friday for next episode.
  18. Preview of new Energy app in 2025.18 + revived talk of V2V / V2H bi-directional charging

    They were tow charging Rivian's in 2020 Long Way Up (Southern Tip Of South America to LA), so it's definitely works.
