  1. Guide call & PBA signed for R1S... mid-may delivery

    R1S?! Limestone?! OC?! You hit the trifecta! Congrats. That's fantastic. Looking forward to seeing the pics!
  2. Buy an ICE Truck Now or Wait for Rivian?

    If I towed on a regular basis, I wouldn't buy an electric truck at this point. If you buy an R1T, you'll get a max towing range of ~150 miles on a full charge (on the 21" wheel/tire combo, on basically level ground, in moderate temperatures, no headwinds). You're likely to need to charge away...
  3. Has Rivian lost the battle AND the war?

    Rivian's stated goal is to capture 10% of the EV market. Thinking that Rivian would capture 100% of the full-sized SUV market was never part of the equation, as far as I know. Scaringe has said many times that more vehicles of every type and at every price point will be required to replace the...

    Hold down the left-most button on the steering wheel.
  5. Rivian R1T - Our First Impressions | In Depth

    You can replicate the functionality of the camp kitchen for $531. It won't be a slickly integrated package like the camp kitchen, but it will function nicely and the gear tunnel will remain available to store other stuff in.
  6. What's reasonable?

    Ask for a new one.
  7. The Built In Navigation Solution

    Agreed. I have no issues with the navigation system. I think it works well. I drive in the Mid-Atlantic region, not Seattle, so I can't speak to that.
  8. Owners, how is your paint holding up?

    Foam cannon. Rinse. Leaf blower to dry. You won't get any wash-related marks. If you're not gonna do PPF (which I recommend for the front clip, A-pillars and roof leading edge at least), then think about a ceramic coating product to make cleaning easier.
  9. Best Flippin' Rivian color choices

    I bought my R1T without ever having laid eyes on one, much less driving one. Best vehicle I've ever owned and it's not even close. Hopefully it works out for you too!
  10. Best Flippin' Rivian color choices

    It may sound weird, but Yellow is actually the paint color that has the best resale value in the general market. Don't know why; most yellow cars are pretty fugly to me. However, the Compass Yellow R1S with black 22" wheels and a Black Mountain interior looks really, really great to me. I think...
  11. R1T Post Delivery Accessories and Review

    Actually, my field kit does fit flush. You may need to move some stuff around in there a bit, but it certainly can fit flush. Some of the contents of the field kit may have shifted in shipping making it a bit bulgy in places. Just shift some stuff about, give it a bit of a squish; it'll be fine...
  12. R1T Post Delivery Accessories and Review

    Your mileage may vary. It sucks that R1VLIFE had such a struggle. My floor mats were installed in about 3 minutes, with no cussing at all. ?‍♂️
  13. Ask us Rivian R1T owners ANYTHING [AMA]!

    Your question does not compute.
  14. Can the Camp Kitchen be added after delivery?

    And the R1T really is badass. I can't imagine going back to a "regular" truck. I shudder to think what you'll have to pay to get one after market ($150K!?); but you'll definitely enjoy it, once you get over the pain of writing that check.
  15. Can the Camp Kitchen be added after delivery?

    Yep, Rivian techs will just install the gear shuttle accessory and then the camp kitchen components mount on that. No changes to the basic vehicle are required. And the camp kitchen components can be removed and stored away when you're not using them, making the gear tunnel available for other...
  16. The “Anti-Gripe” Thread

    The suspension is a magic carpet ride. One-pedal driving, once you get used to it, is fantastic. I love chucking stuff in the gear tunnel. The motor sound is tuned just right. The paint quality is excellent. And, just like everyone else has said: The build quality is excellent and the...
  17. Rivian Tires - Better range/acceleration question

    Sadly, you can't get everything with one wheel/tire combo. Buy the 22 sports if you want to go fast. Buy the 21 streets if you want to go far. Buy the 20 AT's if you want to go off-road. You'll be making some sort of compromise no matter your choice. Buying the 20-inch wheels and putting an...
  18. Will be our first pickup - any advice

    Don't go off-roading by yourself. Tame stuff like dirt/gravel roads are okay; but don't venture into the hairy stuff without company.
