  1. Guess I’m getting my powered tonneau this week!

    Just got the call this morning and have my appointment next Thursday morning. I was kind of hoping I would be a later replacement since mine has worked flawlessly since I got the truck. I'm sure the new one is better, but kind of wanted at least a few guinea pigs to get the new one to make me...
  2. What do you use your R1T bed for? (Picture Edition)

    Don't look if you don't want to. Second time I got to use the bed for this, but forgot to take a pic last year. This year's pic was much better anyway since it was 2 instead of just 1, and this year one was actually mine which was the bigger of the two. Wouldn't fit without the tailgate...
  3. PAAK vs Card vs Key Fob -- what do you use?

    Honestly I have all 3 with me just about 100% of the time. The card stays in my wallet as a backup. The fob is what I am actually using 99.9% of the time though, because I don't have the patience to turn airplane mode on then off every time I approach the vehicle which is the only way my...
  4. New R1S impressions from a Grand Cherokee owner (Long)

    I guess I'm among the 1000s of others that feel the wireless charging pad is fine. I didn't think mine worked only because of the constant griping about it, but while riding a bumpy forest road a month after I got my truck I happened to glance down and noticed it was charging. It just needed...
  5. Anyone else have a disappointing delivery experience?

    No. My delivery experience was about as flawless as it gets and is still by far the best vehicle I have ever owned after almost 1.5 years. The 2 recalls were done by mobile service with the same great technician. Using one's anecdotal experiences to extrapolate about the success or failure...
  6. PAAK more responsive after 2023.42.1 software update

    Well my FOB has been doing pretty well with proximity unlocking for a while now. Phone hasn't been a functional PAAK since I was forced to "upgrade" to a Pixel 7A by Rivian/Android. Just installed the update last night, and the app immediately told me it now needs to be paired with the truck...
  7. RAN Rivian Charging Stations Locations Map via Google Maps

    Exactly. I was recently reading an article on the challenges of the grid in general, and the #1 bottleneck right now is transformers. If you order one now, the typical wait is 12-14 months minimum. I had relatives in another state that waited almost a year to move into their new home in a...
  8. Bi-Directional Charging

    Not that hard to figure out. Just look at the latest quarterly results and forecasts from ENPH and SEDG. Lots of blaming NEM 3.0 in CA, which no doubt had a little to do with it, but higher interest rates probably had more to do with it. Those unable to purchase systems outright that were on...
  9. Bi-Directional Charging

    https://enphase.com/ev-chargers/bidirectional This is the one I'm waiting for as my solar is Enphase and I already have all of the other hardware waiting for it to plug into. But I expect to be paying a premium price being Enphase. It should still be cheaper than their options for 10 kWh of...
  10. Software Update 2023.42 - Gauge View for Dual Motors and Other Improvements

    Crossing my fingers but not holding my breath that I will finally be able to use my Pixel 7A as a PAAK. Since I got it the only way I can use it is to cycle my Airplane mode on and off before it recognizes it as a key. At least the FOB works since the phone is no longer an option. And oh...
  11. My initial results with new Tow Mode

    I am 100% the opposite. After dozens of long trips, I have found the nav calculated range remaining absolutely useless. It approximates a minimum of 30-60 miles of range remaining less than what I know I will arrive with. And it doesn't adjust/improve with multiple trips on the same route...
  12. Powered tonneau fix = new dual motors setup

    My original single motor powered tonneau continues to work flawlessly after 15 months. I'm perfectly fine being a low priority end of the line for the replacement. Heck, I would even offer my spot in line to someone patiently waiting for one who got a truck without any cover. Everyone just...
  13. Oakland, CA to St. Paul, MN in 3ish Days - R1T Trip Report

    Nice write up. For the life of me, I can't figure out why anyone even wants to use Driver+. Whether or not I think it performs well or poorly, it's way more attention consuming and annoying to me than just driving with ACC. I guess I'm becoming more convinced EA did a better job in the...
  14. Max Pack Battery is now a filter criterion in R1 Shop

    Well I'm still basking in the joy of my decision to ditch the max pack for a large pack long ago, but the thread is more than worth it for the English lesson.
  15. Apocalypse Nirvana Rivian R1T ?

    Not gonna lie. A part of me likes this. Would never do it myself, but would love to rent it for a weekend and tell a few of my friends I did.
  16. Are there any products you need for the Rivian and nobody made yet?

    Gun rack for the gear tunnel.
  17. Canyonlands/Moab White Rim Road Trip Report and 5k mi R1T Review

    I was already going to reply that I don't care one bit about Driver+ and only even turned it on once or twice in the 14 months I've had my truck. But I use ACC all the time, and it's fine. It's pretty rare for it to disengage, but when it does it tends to do it repeatedly. Sometimes the...
  18. Quick look review: Rivian Duffel Bag

    Thanks for a great review. It's tempting. Are the dimensions within the limits of a carry on for flying?
  19. Someone put R1T to ultimate pickup truck test by hauling pallet of concrete mix in its bed

    This reminded me of my one use of the truck for a heavy load I did. We found a contractor that had some excess inventory of pavers for a DIY project at a really good price and went to see if we wanted them. They were on 3 different pallets. I think he said a full pallet was around 4k lbs...
