  1. Traded Gen 1 R1T Quad Large in for GMC Sierra ICE

    Sounds to me like this was more of a lemonish experience. Not sure if I am reading this wrong. I really enjoy my vehicle, but the few times I have touched service, the transaction costs have been high (annoying rental navigation). Superfan of these vehicles, LE owner, and R2 res holder (but...
  2. Traded Gen 1 R1T Quad Large in for GMC Sierra ICE

    Sorry this happened. I really enjoy my LE but I’d don’t think I would have kept it if I were in your shoes. Sounds kind of like you got something that was lemonish. Rivian is not good at service yet. The few times dealing with rental process was very annoying.
  3. PA to VT NYE Ski Run

    Meh but no crowds and lots of fun with our crew. Actually spring skiing most days. Last days two inches transformed into packed powder.
  4. PA to VT NYE Ski Run

    Did you loop to hit the four? I have used three of these with awesome experience. I was at Newburgh New Year’s Day if that was u in the lot around say 1-2. Stopped in. what gen? Literally my biggest ā€˜complaint’ is the nav is too conservative. I started from Gore in adk with 90 percent in my...
  5. Long Island (Oyster Bay) Service Center Apparently Coming Soon

    Great news - I had heard this was in the works and then nothing: Long Islanders, hopefully no more going to Brooklyn. Found this in a reddit search: apparently Town of Oyster Bay (basically eastern Nassau County) will have a service center coming somewhere around Woodbury NY. Very helpful to...
  6. Rivian reputation, what do non-Rivian drivers think about Rivians?

    I would say it is generally very positive. I live in Metro NY, and I have had a handful of Raptors or Rams try to race me. Usually I just let them do their thing (or try to). Sometimes I go to sport. Sorry.
  7. Any one regretted the R1S based on size?

    Came from crv and love it. wife likes car but if she doesn’t drive it for a bit she feels the change in size. test drive but I felt the sight lines are good for size.
  8. Comma AI / OpenPilot Autopilot Progress on R1!

    Good point. I m the guy who would keep it slow and distanced in that situation but ppl including me would be trained that the cruise slows for you, increasing risk.
  9. Brand New Single Motor R1S (big R1S fail)

    Sorry to hear. Did you get rid of the rivian?
  10. Gen 2 Steering Wheel Heater Issue

    And I really enjoy the vehicle and would not switch it out for anything on the market, but Gen2 folks, you are also beta testers. We are talking only 100,000 in with amazon vans. It will take time. Unfortunately they won't get better at servicing under the current model. And I still love...
  11. Gen 2 Steering Wheel Heater Issue

    Yeah I have found I just click it off and on again and it seems to work better (maybe just goes to the early part of the cycle).
  12. Excited to be part of the Rivian family - Gen2 Dual Max

    Range on dual max? I m LE gen1 20s …..
  13. Comma AI / OpenPilot Autopilot Progress on R1!

    Thanks for sharing! Two basic thoughts - hopefully not annoying: 1. I actually think that the driving functions are pretty good, but I came from a 12 year old CRV. 2. My major complaint is no basic cruise control - at least give it to us when sensors fail in snow storms!!! : ). I really...
  14. 20" Inch Efficient Winter Tires Compilation List - 275/60R20

    I think I see a bit of efficiency pickup when I am late in the spring switching out the Blazzaks. Very happy with them. Just went up to the mountains with 2000 feet elevation gain getting equal to 276 miles of range over 146 miles (will be better on way down). EPA rated 270 Launch Edition...
  15. R2 walkthrough review by Doug DeMuro

    Maybe dumb question: what is gen 1.5? Dual motors before Gen2?
  16. Discussion - Why Can't I Use Chromecast With a Hotspot?

    I don't know, but I am starting up connect plus for the winter because of ski drives anyway (leaving for one this am). I am not cheap (I am sometimes too frugal but that was probably why I could buy a Rivian to begin with) but didn't want to pay for it when I could use hotspot even if annoying...
  17. Update this week! Christmas treat, Youtube, Google Cast, Sirius XM, Pandora, Enhanced Lane Change, Scheduled Drive, Gen 2 KeyFob enhancement & fixes!

    Aha - as in the video apps that are coming in the update this post is about? Good to know, thank you. In the short term I am 50-50 about whether to get connect plus now. I was simply connecting to my phone's hotspot each time I wanted it, but I somehow removed hotspot from my phone plan and...
  18. RAN Rivian Charging Stations Locations Map via Google Maps

    If anyone cares and hit has not been covered, an easy physical tell is that the 'open to all' cabinets are significantly taller/higher than the Gen1 Rivian only charging cabinets.
  19. Update this week! Christmas treat, Youtube, Google Cast, Sirius XM, Pandora, Enhanced Lane Change, Scheduled Drive, Gen 2 KeyFob enhancement & fixes!

    RANDOM QUESTION: I don't have Connect + -- will probably get it for a month during Xmas holiday travel. However, I noticed on update 2024.43.01, I now have hotspot again (but no alexa voice command or enhanced maps) - did anyone else notice that the hotspot alone came back for 43.01? Thanks...
  20. Queensbury, NY RAN station is now operational! 10 charging stalls

    Hey - yes, there is a decent looking diner in the parking lot where the RANs are and a Friendly's a five minute or so walk it looks like. Plugshare is fairly helpful for seeing stuff like that. For Newburgh, you probably can go into the MIke's Jersey subs to use the bathroom. Fellow LI'er...
