  1. Tesla Model X vs. Rivian R1S comparison review - from a real owner of both.

    Our HH has a 24 R1S and a 22Y. Obviously, very different in size and utility. The biggest thing for me is and I know this probably sounds crazy but the windshield wipers and settings work so much better on the Rivi. I always have to manually adjust the Y...
  2. App not showing Charging Speed

    Oddest thing! Charging 24 R1S on my home charger (Tesla Wall Connector) and while it's working (and at usual rate - 28 miles added an hour), but it's showing 0.0 kW charging rate (it usually shows at 11 kW). I tried restarting the app and my phone but still seeing the same. Anyone seen this...
  3. RAN Charging Costs? Tesla Superchargers, What Teslas Pay vs. What Rivians Pay

    Love Sunriver! We paid $0.36/kwh consistently across the two Maine and one RI RAN stations in New England on our road trip this week. Zero issues and all in nice locations. I had to make my first Electrify America stop on the trip and was so disappointed.
  4. RAN Rivian Charging Stations Locations Map via Google Maps

    Thanks both! I didn't realize you could program the Rivian app this way. Very helpful. I wish the Rivi app would let you set a future state of charge for planning ahead.
  5. RAN Rivian Charging Stations Locations Map via Google Maps

    I'm charging there on Tuesday. These came up just in time. Maybe a dumb question but is there a way to map just the Superchargers with Magic Dock or are there so few it's irrelevant? Driving out from northern NJ to Maine and I seem doomed to Electrify America... Trying to figure out if there...
  6. Does anyone else find the new side camera views distracting and useless?

    I find there location on the R1 much more helpful than where my Y has them on center console. I almost never use in Tesla but use all the time on Rivi.
  7. New prospective R1S buyer (coming from Tesla Plaid) — Thoughts & Questions

    People trash Alexa but even in current state, I find her way more useful than the voice commands available on our 22 MY. That said, Ive seen speculation that Rivian will port in Google and Siri voice command as options over time (separating those from AA/CP) and when that happens I'd happily...
  8. What'd you name / nickname your Rivian?

    Midorifuji - after one of our fave sumo wrestlers - who wears green and name means green fuji (like the mountain).
  9. Any good paint-less dent removal shops you can recommend?

    Santiago is great! Glad it worked out.
  10. PDR in Bergen County?

    They were just smaller dents, but you'd never know they were there once the PDR was done and Santiago was friendly, professional, etc.
  11. ? *BREAKING* Rivian & VW Announce Joint Venture -- VW Investing $1B in Rivian and another $4B to form JV for next gen EVs

    This is great news and makes so much sense for both parties - and my fave part is that it is software based, with Rivian extracting value for software they already developed. If it gets them through R3 manufacture in Georgia - as it seems to do at minimum based on the $3B. It's all you need...
  12. Test drove gen 2 R1S today (PDM, Max) -- Initial Pros & Cons Review

    Does that mean that 2024 model year owners needn't fear the infamous 12V issue?
  13. Does anyone else hate Gary?

    NJ resident that loves Gary here. Absolutely love hours they use Gary to make the experience more friendly - whether with Gear Guard or Pet Mode. I was really hoping they'd give me a plushie or a sweat shirt at delivery in March... Alas!
  14. New Jersey Rivian Owners

    Hey folks! I've been posting here for a bit but just realized this group existed within the forum! Two questions: 1) Anyone have a good experience with running board installation in Bergen county? 2) Any news on the Nyack service center?
  15. EV Sports line Running Boards - question for owners

    Thanks, Sub. Very helpful! Have you noted any impact to energy efficiency? I find it so weird that Rivian doesn't offer this as an option with something custom made.
  16. EV Sports line Running Boards - question for owners

    LOL! My wife is 5'1... So your expressed use case is VERY compelling! She drives the Y as her everyday.
  17. Test drove gen 2 R1S today (PDM, Max) -- Initial Pros & Cons Review

    I guess I've never been one to make a car shake with bass, but I do love a good bass line in a song! We have a 24 R1S and the sound is great to me. That said, I rarely feel the need to have volume up over 15.
