  1. I put my R1S into "winter mode"—and you won't believe what happened next!

    One way with about 1500 ft elevation drop. On the way from MA to VT I think I got 1.79 m/kwh. If you are really doing 200 miles round trip in one day and can’t warm the battery before leaving the ski area yea you might need to charge for 10 minutes on the way home.
  2. I put my R1S into "winter mode"—and you won't believe what happened next!

    I drove 190 miles Vermont to Boston, average temp around 32 F and got 1.98 m/kwh efficiency on 20” ATs. Not much different than I get in the summer. I did draft behind a rig for about 30 miles as a test though and got 2.5 mi/kwh for that stretch. The key is to charge for at least an hour...
  3. Does Lucid Gravity solve many of Rivian R1S issues for families?

    I’ve been diving the R1S as a family hauler including road trips for 8 months. The much bigger issue with fast charging is not the vehicle, it’s the network. Not enough chargers, slow chargers, broken chargers. In most cases the Gravity won’t charge any faster than an R1S. The second thing...
  4. What Mode and Height is Your Default?

    All purpose high suspension. High is better on crappy urban pavement especially since the suspension tuning update.
  5. Snow tires recommendations?

    I bought the LT3 in the stock 275/65 size but haven’t mounted them yet.
  6. First Rivian Charger in New England?

    How did you find this permit? I’m guessing there must be a new one as Lebanon was re-added to the coming soon map.
  7. Snow tires recommendations?

    Nokian Hakkas on the 20s. Best winter tire in the world.
  8. Rivian Home Charger running at 10.5 kW instead of 11.5 kW

    Mine shows lower charge rates recently too, on 2 different L2 chargers so it’s something with the vehicle not the charger.
  9. Battery not preparing for fast charge?

    I navigated to a fast charger using the Nav but it didn’t show the preconditioning message. Does it only do that when it needs to but not always?
  10. Affordable Winter Wheels Setup: Ram 2363

    Did anyone ever confirm that the Dodge rims are designed to handle over 7,000lb? Personally I wouldn’t mount them as a Ram only weighs 4500.
  11. List of compatible tires (for each Rivian factory wheel diameter)

    Interesting, even Nokian lists it here: https://www.nokiantires.com/rivian/
  12. Has anyone cracked the code on Driver + ?

    All of my cameras were out for 2 months and Driver+ still worked no problem.
  13. Good piece on Rivian and the EV market

    That video is over a year old. R1S wasn’t even delivered yet.
  14. Supercharger with Magic Dock on Long Island (@ Shirley)

    Given that about 1-2% of my charging is public L3s I will gladly pay $0.52/kWh for access to fast reliable Superchargers. No brainer!
  15. Where do these clip on to?

    Bottom rear of front seats, these clip seem to keep the flaps at bottom of seat secure.
  16. Rivian customer service is #$%^&*

    I’m pretty sure the reason it took so long is the engineers were in fact working on more important things, like you say the OTA updates. Typical early adopter stuff, be ready for more.
  17. Any one else totally dissatisfied with the locking / unlocking experience?

    We just use the Fob because we walk by the car constantly (we walk places more than drive) all day with phones in our pockets. We just hang the Fob on a hook in the mudroom and share it, hasn’t been a problem.
