    Yes, they might be too extreme, but there are many ways to cut cost and still come up with the same design, or a very nice one to replace the hand-made design that they have now. Look at Cadillac, they’d never glue the back of the seats by hand. And they still look nice. It’s the stuff that you...
  2. Munro deep dive: Gen2 R1S interior cost cutting without sacrificing quality and design features

    Well, their main goal is to help manufacturers reduce costs. Rivian spent $120k to build a vehicle that they sell for $70k. They have to shave those pennies to become profitable. I think the main cost cutting is actually the casting of the frame, cradle etc’. Early-built R1 vehicles had an...

  5. Second service much better than the first, and got to compare a gen 1 quad, vs my gen 2 max

    Thank you for the interesting review. Sounds like the Gen2 vehicles really gotten a lot better in terms of hardware. Regarding service, I'm glad you had a good experience. Mine was the opposite. They made me come to them, just to tell me they can't help me. I never gotten a loaner, in the 3865...

    Phone as a key has never let me down… I have a key inside the truck in an RF blocking pouch for emergencies and my brother has the card, just in case I need a rescue ?

  12. Rivian won’t refund my deposit…

I disputed the charge on my Citi card(Costco), and the dispute was approved withing an hour, I guess Rivian is very...
  13. Tesla engineer warns against using NACS extension cords at Superchargers

    Longer cable means more resistance. It’s a huge NO NO. It extends the SC cable and impact it as well(not just the extension cable). Everything is taken into consideration when measuring the current that a vehicle is able to accept, charger cable, plug/charge port, cable from charge port to...

  15. Best drive-cam flash drive recommendations?

    I've been using THIS for the last 4 months but I had issues because of the updates as well. Resetting the infotainment system works for me so I guess it's not the drive.
