  1. Another bricked R1

    I was bricked about 2 weeks ago with a dead 12V. No prior warning. The tow truck driver told me the same thing (after a 3 hr wait), he's practically running his business solely on Rivians. :(
  2. Service 12v battery system notification message

    Mine bricked today, no previous warnings. 19k miles, one year old.
  3. PSA - DO NOT USE LECTRON ADAPTOR w/ Tesla Wall Charger on Rivian

    Just another datapoint, I've been using mine daily (70-80 mi round trip daily use) since October with no issues, with my Tesla HPWC Gen 2. I'm waiting around until V2G charging becomes more of a reality and then I'll probably upgrade to the Rivian Wall Charger for that.
  4. Anyone notice strange results towing after the latest software update?

    Before the latest software update, I know it had some weird results sometimes while in tow mode (635 miles range or something), but when it wasn't doing that...it was pretty accurate and conservative on the towing. When I would switch into tow mode, it would immediately go half of the range...
  5. DC Fast Charging Disabled until Serviced

    Has anyone ever gotten any resolution or updates on this? I've now had this error twice over the past couple of weeks.
  6. This is doable, right? Right? 140 mile RT no charge *edit, yep! Made it*

    I made it! With room to spare, actually. The truck overperformed on the drive down there, with the empty trailer and no gate. Coming back, it was about what I had expected, maybe slightly worse...but some of that was because I didn't drive quite as conservatively. I charged to 100% (310...
  7. This is doable, right? Right? 140 mile RT no charge *edit, yep! Made it*

    So, this morning I took the trailer back to work with the gate removed. The temperature was 35 (vs 45 yesterday), and I was pretty amazed at the difference in efficiency. The same 20 mile stretch, going 60 mph, I achieved 1.8 mi/kwh vs 1.28 mi/kwh vs yesterday. The total drive to work, 37.6...
  8. This is doable, right? Right? 140 mile RT no charge *edit, yep! Made it*

    That's a great point. I've never taken the gate off before, I just went outside to see how "doable" it is, and it looks like it isn't that hard. It just slides off to the side. I'll remove it tonight and take it back to work tomorrow to get another A/B test. I have a set of ATV ramps, so...
  9. This is doable, right? Right? 140 mile RT no charge *edit, yep! Made it*

    I did a dry run this morning to work, which is 38 miles away. I started at 222 miles (in conserve mode) and arrived with 146 miles. 45 degrees. The first 20 ish miles, I drove at exactly 60 mph, after getting out of town. To be honest, I was a little disappointed in the efficiency. The...
  10. This is doable, right? Right? 140 mile RT no charge *edit, yep! Made it*

    I wish I could, but how this trailer is made, I can't. I have seen several people do it on the forums without issue. I would only use conserve mode with the empty trailer on the way down there. With the trailer only being 1k lbs, I can't imagine how that could actually hurt anything. I am...
  11. This is doable, right? Right? 140 mile RT no charge *edit, yep! Made it*

    Thank you! That's a great data point. It will be probably in the mid to high 40s when I go and get it.
  12. This is doable, right? Right? 140 mile RT no charge *edit, yep! Made it*

    I'm buying a UTV side by side this weekend. The dealership is 70 miles away (rounding up). 22 Sport tires, 12' single axle utility trailer with a gate (i.e. Windsail). I'm thinking the trailer by itself is roughly 1k lbs. My plan is to drive there in conserve mode, since the empty trailer...
  13. Don't Use USAA insurance for your Rivian

    As an insurance agent (and R1T owner), this isn't super surprising. As much as I'd love to pile on USAA right now, the entire industry is having trouble with staffing. If you go into an insurance professionals subreddit, and hear from claim's adjusters...they sound borderline suicidal. On...
  14. DFW Rivian Owners: Has anyone taken road trips out west (Colorado/Utah/California, etc)?

    A little off topic, but I'm currently gun shy now on any public chargers. I'm only 2 weeks into my Rivian (coming from a Tesla). I knew beforehand that the EA experience is subpar to Tesla, but I didn't realize it was this frustrating. I had to stop and charge at an EA charger in Royse City...

    Thursday here too, maybe we'll run into each other!
  16. Oct-Dec 2022 Delivery Windows

    Wow. That is so bizarre! It's like Lucy with the football. I have not heard a thing, and I am assuming it's been there a week. *Edit to add, just got the invite to pick up. Woohoo!

    Geez, talk about a true rollercoaster of emotions! "It's here....sorry it's damaged, starting over...new truck is here! Sorry my bad it's not."
