I agree car play would be nice but not a deal killer, I think that could be added at some point VIA an OTA update if Rivian decides to license it. BTW the Rivian GPS is not as good as google maps or Waze, I'm sure that will improve overtime with OTA updates. I assume by your handle you were in...

I love my launch green but every time I see a picture of the yellow I think maybe I should have????

I'll add my 2 cents, I came from a 2019 Tesla 3 performance so I had 3 years of EV under my belt. Once you go EV you don't want to go back (unless you are a big road tripper). The R1T is a large vehicle and my first truck but driving becomes second nature after a little bit behind the wheel, the...

Sorry to read about your experience. My R1T LE was built in July of 2022 and delivered the following month. A couple of very small issues that were fixed and a couple of minor issues I am waiting for when the tonneau cover fix becomes available. My power cover still opens but doesn't close 100%...

I am at 5000 miles and called Rivian yesterday 10/24 for a tire rotation, they do that VIA mobile service and charge $60. The Rivian rep asked me if there's a Discount Tire nearby and I said yes, she said Rivian partnered with them so I called and they charge $60 which includes a tire balance...

Yes, when on winding rural or mountainous roads I will put mine in sport mode stiff but most of my driving is Scottsdale suburbia so AP soft works best for me most of the time and of course off road high setting when going over the speedbumps at my local Safeway.

I also came from a model 3 to the R1T. The R1T as well as the R1S are huge heavy vehicles compared to the 3 and while these trucks have amazing handling they are not quite as nimble as the 3. That being said after a little over a year with my R1 trying all the different settings I pretty much...

Same and I just restarted my software as recommended, seems to work better.

I too am into preventive maintenance, regular oil and fluid changes Etc., Etc. but what do you do on a very hi tech EV that is basically a rolling computer? The new screen showing the temps of the battery and motors are sleek but what does it mean? Is this for show or something to be regularly...

That is my concern, I have no issues after 5000 miles and 1.3 years of ownership but I worry about expensive out of warranty repairs if I keep it past the warranty which I am planning to do. Should I call Rivian service and say "I have no issues but I'm reading about others and I'd like my R1T...

According to consumer reports the odds are that the price of the contract plus deductible will be more than the cost of covered repairs if any, that's how the company's make their money as the odds are in their favor. However that study was done pre EV's and EV's are supposed to be more reliable...

My PTC still works but it sounds like it is ready to break apart every time I open/close it. When my R1T was delivered a little over a year ago I was already reading (on this forum) about the PTC issues and that was the first thing I checked. The cover did not quite open all the way and still...

I believe they take all dollars spent in the quarter (payroll, materials, utilities, factory maintenance, cost of sales and marketing etc.)/number of vehicles produced to estimate cost per vehicle. Obviously costs per vehicle go down as as production increases. Actual sales are on the...

I actually view the article as a positive as I've read it was rumored the early production R1Ts cost Rivian roughly 150K to build loosing approximately 50% when sold at early bird pricing. Now only loosing $33,000 is moving in the right direction and as production continues to increase with...

Good point as long as your survival compound is in a sunny place:sun:☀:sun:

If you're buying a vehicle for the upcoming zombie apocalypses I would think you would want an ICE over electric as you can always siphon gas somewhere but will not be easy to find electricity!

I thought I did my homework when I went with the 21's (only considered range) and unfortunately I didn't realize that the 21's are custom to the R1T and therefore a lack of selection. Hopefully that will change when I need new tires next week as I'm approaching 6,000 miles:CWL:

FYI, if you want nitrogen which might be fractionally better check out your local Costco as some stores have a free nitrogen pump available as Costco only uses nitrogen when you buy tires from them at no extra charge.

As one of the silent majority of R1T owners where this is my first pickup truck in 55 years of driving and buying/selling more cars than I can count I must admit I love it and what took me so long? It’s the perfect size as it fits in my garage, I can haul things like 5 people with all their golf...

I have not read every post on this thread but here are some thoughts after 1 year of ownership with my R1T. First off I do love the vehicle and it is my first pick up truck in over 55 plus years of buying and driving everything from Corvettes, Mustangs, Cadillacs and everything in between, even...
