I've done multiple trips over 1000mi on my Rivian already. As a comparisson, it takes me between 2 and 2:30hrs extra traveling from Dallas-Ft.Worth to Brekenridge, CO (that's one I do every year at least once and I have been doing it for 10 yrs now).
I counting Fueling stops, dining stops...
okey, I just ran some quick test.
I'm assuming your vehicle is NOT plugged into your Rivian Wall Charger. Right? If it is, then it might consume some (easiest way to avoid it, would be to set a Charging Schedule from the app with the minimum possible time and also lower the charging limit to...
... if that's the case, that's probably a broken Wall Connector. That's a LOT of energy for an idling charger. I can measure mine in a bit but with my Battery/Inverter setup, my entire house consumes 600w when I'm away and that includes everything that it's plugged in idling (TVs, computers...
Just wrote/described my setup here, you might want to take a look at it :)

I recently acquired an EcoFlowDelta Pro 3 unit (It's on sale on Amazon currently) and I was able to connect it to the Generator Inlet port of my Inverter+Battery Setup.
That setup works, BUT:
- You can output up to 4kW maximum 👍
- You can output 240v while using 120v to Charge 👍 BUT, it will...
I had issues with GearGuard recording with my previous SSD, but after I upgraded to the Samsung T7 2TB (https://amzn.to/4qSkMBj) I haven't had anything missed... (for about 1 yr now)
I do take the time to go through the notifications and delete stuff very often (when I get up and see...
We all have our own 'fixes'... When I think my R1T is rattling too much (it doesn't), I just go for a ride in my fully built Ford Focus RS. Those HARSH motor mounts makes the entire car shake like a broken cocktail maker... it's awesome...
Then back on the Rivian an it's... oohhhh peaceful...
Gotcha, I might try the same fix. My rattle isn't driving me crazy (I had a piece of rubber pressuring the grill but that stopped working) but would love a permanent solution.
thanks for sharing!
I don't think there an 'instant recover' on the battery capacity metric. It's after a few cycles of charge/discharge. If you see at the graph of my battery, you'll see that it change its trend but it's still at the same-ish levels
We had 10 days of extreme cold here in North-Texas and now we...
I don't think we will see a "base 45k MSRP model" until 2027 honestly. My take is Launch MSRP will be between 55-60k.
I'm personally OK with 55k, I would like to learn if the Gen2 Computer would be upgradeable (looks to be an easy swap based on the location of it) to Gen3, and if that's the...
Also, Brake/Turn combination worked great as well. I had to use some magnetic lights once since the UHAUL I rented decided to loose one of the lights and it was dark outside already.... Bought a Walmart one and worked perfectly (same connector)
Once I told my best friend "Heated seats are for old people"... Guess what now... I'm old, I love them :P
