  1. R1T vs Model Y, a ridiculous comparison review

    I was planning to sell mine privately too, but the trade in offer was shockingly good. They’ll have you take pictures of all your car’s options, so I think they’ll take FSD into account. The American review: Model Y: Like a bald eagle piloting an F-22 Raptor while using the latest iPhone...
  2. R1T vs Model Y, a ridiculous comparison review

    This is an absurd comparison. The Tesla Model Y and Rivian R1T are such different vehicles on both price and type, you’d never put them head to head. What’s better, a Porsche Macan or Ford F-150 King Ranch? A Mazda CX-5 or Toyota Tacoma? And yet, due to the weird time in the electrification of...
  3. Hanging Mountain Bikes on Tailgate?

    I grabbed a Race Face T2 S/M based on the findings in that post since it has padding right on the creased area. So far so good!
  4. Dash cam options?

    I didn't have my truck yet at the time, but now I do! The camera's on its way, so I'll report back here once installed. :)
  5. Unbelievable trade-in offer for Model Y

    I didn’t want to post this until I actually did the deed in case somehow it was all some kind of big mistake. I’m not posting to brag, but rather to let folks know not to sleep on the trade in! Rivian offered $63,000 for my 2020 Tesla Model Y Long Range (only upgrade from the base model was 20ā€...
  6. Dash cam options?

    Until we get official dash cam options from Rivian, I think it’s a good idea to mount a DC-powered one. At least it’s pretty easy to run the cable down to the bottom center DC port as shown here, but can anyone test whether the port is switched when the truck is off? I want to avoid contributing...
  7. Order Source Code

    I matched with a guide the day before the shop went live, so I'm not sure if my experience is relevant or not.
  8. Order Source Code

    Here's what it looks like when a delivery date is scheduled. (P.S., SO EXCITED) "state":"ORDERED" "configurationStatus":"SOFT_LOCKED" "currency":"USD" "orderDate":"2021-10-25T18:33:50.014Z" "type":"VEHICLE" "fulfillmentSummaryStatus":"READY_FOR_FULFILLMENT"
  9. Efficiency Showdown: Ford F-150 Lightning vs Rivian R1T- Out of Spec Reviews

    Algorithm or not, I really enjoy the level of detail in Out of Spec videos. The more geeky details the better! I’d rather Kyle stay behind the wheel doing cool vehicle testing than behind a keyboard editing videos.
  10. Badge appreciation thread

    Be sure to post your results! Are you planning on using a masking fluid, dip release, or plain ā€˜ol masking tape? There are some really spaces, especially in the smaller side lettering.
  11. Badge appreciation thread

    I totally agree! The side-painted letters are easily my favorite aesthetic flourish. I don’t think I’ve ever seen it before, and I’m really enjoying how hard Rivian is leaning into the color. I’m tempted to try hand painting the sides of the rear logo, but don’t want to risk messing it up...
  12. Latest VIN check R1T. What is the real production rate...

    VIN 7077 checking in! It has arrived at the Bellevue service center and I’m scheduled to pick it up on Saturday! My guide tells me to remain flexible though, as delivery appointments can be ā€œcancelled for any number of reasonsā€. I’m excited, but that’s not exactly confidence inspiring!
