  1. Would like your advice on getting a Quad-motor R1S soon versus a Dual-motor R1S later

    I was saying if I were in the market now, I’d pick the slightly better range even if it delayed by a year. The dual/large offers a marginal gain, just have to wait until available. The dual/max would be my ultimate ideal config. The extra HP, while fun, pales in comparison to the times when I’ve...
  2. Would like your advice on getting a Quad-motor R1S soon versus a Dual-motor R1S later

    Have R1S quad/large. I’ve actually been debating selling and ordering dual max whenever they announce availability of that configuration. Reason is that the improved range (albeit small) still fits 90% or more of my typical usage. When it come down to those close situations on a road trip, even...
  3. "A" Post Grab Handle

    I’m wondering if the same designers also thought the truck needs 7 wiper settings, including an Auto setting that really means Off.
  4. Should I bail out or stick?

    @Joe schmoe A little clarification. I do get about 2.11 mi/kWh on ATs. It’s the initial climate control toll that I was illustrating, not the sustained efficiency. My SOC can drop between 5% or more in the blink of an eye with max HVAC. But I am also using the back seat belt buckle to engage...
  5. A or B pillar grab bar options / ideas?

    Sorry. Just found this after searching a little more. https://www.rivianforums.com/forum/threads/a-post-grab-handle.16992/
  6. A or B pillar grab bar options / ideas?

    @moosehead @Arky This idea was mentioned in an old thread about a loose A pillar trim. I decided to give its own thread. Any adventurous folks look into places to mount an aftermarket grab bar on the A pillar and/or B pillar?
  7. Custom fan merch ideas? Just for fun.

    @AO_Pete Abstract Ocean B-Pillar Decal Insert on my favorite 14 oz Yeti Rambler. Any other custom “mods” out there?
  8. R1S running boards news ?

    It does just look like the main slider bar that runs along the inner part of all the third party options. Seems like Rivian could totally offer this option. ??‍♂️
  9. Should I bail out or stick?

    Hate to say it, but I would say bail. Or take delivery and sell. Reasons? This would be an extreme use case for *any* EV. This is only my very non-scientific take, but I think the vampire drain will be significant as the truck parked outside in the elements will try to maintain a minimum...
  10. Let's remove the Conserve Mode stigma

    Have been doing this since I switched to stock ATs for past 1000 miles: 600 mi road trip conserve, standard height, 70 mph cruise 400 mi typical around town short freeway runs all-purpose standard height overall 2.11 mi/kWh, or 285 “range” on stock ATs, a little better than EPA. Too soon to...
  11. Using Rally Mode on-road

    Other owners agree with your suggestions to somehow incorporate some of the Rally mode tuning to everyday use. See older thread below. I suspect there is something way too aggressive with the Stabilty Control for normal driving modes. I find a good balance is simply using all-purpose, standard...
  12. 20" Off-Road Wheels Powdercoated Gloss Black - Installed Pic

    Can I ask how much? They look great. I was looking at the black ATs initially but they’re a little too techy, so I got the standard.
  13. OTA Tire Size Update

    Perplexing. I heard some had it done by a mobile visit for free, and some paid $50 at their SC. Maybe those were in the early days before everyone started switching. Maybe they’re annoyed I got the 2nd hand and didn’t pay them full sucker-price. Who knows. I’m definitely gonna ask at drop off...
  14. Would you switch from R1S to R2S?

    Definitely would! When I ordered my R1S in 2020, we still had three in tow. By my 2023 delivery, two have flown the coop! Definitely would love a smaller version with what will undoubtedly be a quantum leap in battery efficiency/range by 2026. I just hope Rivian doesn’t start monetizing...
  15. Please help - debating selling my R1S

    Maybe try the light bar and side light covers from Abstract Ocean? The Rivian light bar mask gives a little tilt of the hat to Hummer and Range Rover look. And maybe smoke mask around headlights so they’re not giving you stink eye on the approach? Maybe a quick $50 fix, considering you love...
  16. OTA Tire Size Update

    @Riviot @jjswan33 I’d be curious to know what your SC is charging for the recal. They sent my invoice to approve for service next week and it was $240 for the recal and camera adjust. Thats with the wheels already on! I just told them to remove it from the work order.
