In the second year of a 3 year lease on my R1T Gen 2. If the R2 came in a truck I might switch. Will look at the R2S, but like the truck. Also need to review the towing specs. Might just purchase this R1T as I love driving it and it gives me no troubles.
One issue on the self drive came up today. Major interstate with scanners to charge your account or send you a bill from the license reader. One of the original hands free roads I used many times. Well, went on that road for the first time since the upgrade and it now thinks these readers are...
I had a bit of a problem getting the new digital phone system to connect to my phone. Worked it out with a phone call to Rivian on Sunday afternoon without much time and to my total satisfaction.
What was EXTREMELY frustrating was that until it was fixed, the phone app was worthless as I had...
When you get there, the Charlotte SC is great. It is all the gyrations with Rivian and the appointment that is frustrating. First its a home visit and the day before it becomes a SC visit in the future. Trying to coordinate with another future SC visit and whining about the wait they find an...
It has to be released earlier. Availability the weekend before Halloween allows no time to get "extra" dress up for the truck for the parties the weekend before Halloween. Oh the things I could have done with the truck but had no time. Just a plain truck with sounds and lights.
Ditto on this. I bought a roof shade too and rarely use it. Quite frankly. the nice roof window is rather useless for those up front unless you really want to crane your neck to look up. Might be good for the backseat passengers, but who looks up when you are driving?
Replacement of the front half shafts was added at the last moment to a scheduled recall on the front lights and turn signals. Monitoring this site, I knew there was some issues and when I questioned the tech when I dropped off the vehicle, they said it was a proactive replacment.
When I went...
Sometimes the radio works, Sometimes it does not. When it does, frequently takes a minute or two to come on. Like I told the survey when I bought the truck - I have been driving for over fifty years and the radio always worked when the vehicle was turned on. Not in the most expensive...
For me, the problem is not the lack of light in the charging socket. I cannot see the charging socket because he front light bar is so bright. I just stab until it connects.
I have more work on to confirm my premise, but the source may make a difference also. Apple music under mp3/4 does does not have a full sound. Surprised at the much better sound when we received Sirius/XM.
You guys are so much more adept than myself. I can spend several minutes trying to get the windows just right without them going all the way sown then all the way up. And to do it for each window. Just like the application in the app and think it should be on the "open" (frunk, tailgate...
A real radio. I know, a lot to ask for in an EV where everything is connected. But for over 60 years I got into a car and the radio worked. Now it is sometimes on as I left it, sometimes it is rebooting, sometimes it says it cannot connect and sometimes I just ride in silence because I am tired...
Low when I picked up the vehicle in Atlanta and high ever since I arrived in Charlotte. Seems very intuitive and it gives me no issues. Rarely touch the brakes. under the new energy screen, I seem to get any where from 25% to over 33% regen as compared to total KwHr used in city driving.
Confession here. I did not answer all the survey questions on parking assist as I assume the R1T did not have it. Being old school, I assumed parking assist was the car would park itself. Now that I know what parking assist really means, I have been using it all the time since the beginning...
Need to do the test on all vehicles, particularly ICE. If it is a recirculation problem, then it may be an issue will all vehicles. No discussion on the potential sources other than recirculation. Best advice? Crack a window.
Lot of fancy hitches here. I don't know what I am doing correctly, but I am using a 6" hitch I have used for at least 25 years on a 4Runner and Tacoma and now my R1T. Probably bought at WalMart. No problems, it all fits, I have pulled trailers and boats no issues.
What I have found is that...
Don't disagree. Just stating that the "accelerometer" takes quite a bit of deceleration to kick in the brake light. Beyond what using a brake on an ICE would do. MHO.
