  1. Simple mod for 0-60 <3.0 seconds?

    Yes, you are correct, with the top speed limiter, you'd likely hit it well before the 1/4 mile. I guess you could go to the smaller 1/8th mile drag strips.
  2. Rivian Driver+ places #8 in Consumer Reports 2023 Driver Assistance Rankings

    Whole thing makes no sense. GM's Super Cruise is far superior to Ford's version. Tesla gets a 9 out of 10 for capabilities, which is warranted being all that it can do on it's own, whether it does them well or not is a different story. Giving Rivian a rating just barely below at 8 out of 10 is...
  3. Simple mod for 0-60 <3.0 seconds?

    Going down to a 31" tire is the same as putting more "gear" in the car. For ICE cars, increased gear ratios generally resulted in quicker acceleration. The same would likely be true if such a small tire was put on the Rivian. The handling would likely improve as well as it would lower the...
  4. Introducing RMaxx Running Boards & Rock Sliders for Rivian R1T / R1S from Team 1EV

    We'll have to wait for 1EV to reply to answer that. Would be nice if it applied to BOTH Atlanta and Los Angeles (Van Nuys), but their post does only say Atlanta, so no promises have been made with regards to Van Nuys.
  5. Introducing RMaxx Running Boards & Rock Sliders for Rivian R1T / R1S from Team 1EV

    Just noticed that their website added an installation option for $199.95 and you can choose either, Atlanta or Van Nuys.
  6. What do you want addressed in the next OTA update?

    Still begging for them to default the navigation to hard drive first, then internet. I'm commonly in areas with no cell coverage and have to wait 10 minutes before it finally gives up on trying to route with traffic conditions. Give me my route, then worry about traffic conditions. If I'm in an...
  7. Introducing RMaxx Running Boards & Rock Sliders for Rivian R1T / R1S from Team 1EV

    Whoo hoo! Eagerly awaiting the magic e-mail to confirm...... Thanks again for the amazing work. They look great!
  8. Introducing RMaxx Running Boards & Rock Sliders for Rivian R1T / R1S from Team 1EV

    I agree and would expect an install fee. Hopefully they'll reply with a yes or no as to whether that service will be offered at the TSportline store / shop in L.A.
  9. Introducing RMaxx Running Boards & Rock Sliders for Rivian R1T / R1S from Team 1EV

    EV SPORTLINE... Didn't see a reply to the above question? Will installs in L.A. be available? Looks like 6 others in this thread are wanting to know as well. If so, several of us will be scheduling installs in L.A. if such an option is available??? Thank you
  10. What to expect going from a Tesla to a Rivian: my experience

    For those transitioning out of a Tesla, Rivian is the vehicle that will make that transition the smoothest. As noted above, it's in its infancy, but Rivian clearly is following Tesla's playbook. The Rivian, after coming from 9 years with Tesla's is a smooth transition and feels like a familiar...
  11. I saved money and got a used R1T

    Ahh, no wonder they get so few bids on the cars on that site. Wow. That's a chunk of money. I'll stick to Ebay. Easy to list, immediately and they don't charge based on a percentage. I inquired with one car about listing it on Cars and Bids and their process was very complicated and they wanted...
  12. Introducing RMaxx Running Boards & Rock Sliders for Rivian R1T / R1S from Team 1EV

    Like a kid waiting for Santa on December 25th then being told he won't be coming for another month or two, or teasing your dog with a treat just out of his reach, had to wet my appetite little with some photoshop magic to keep my excitement up for what i will have......someday! LOL..........
  13. I saved money and got a used R1T

    Just let someone test drive my truck yesterday and recommended they do the same thing if they didn't want to wait at least a year. Pointing out that they could likely get one for less than current pricing and have it immediately rather than waiting. Cars and bids, apparently from still being a...
  14. Took my Rivian R1S through the car wash. Car Wash Mode worked great

    $80k to $100K for a truck, I pony up the extra $10 to $15 for a hand wash. They come to my house. Saves time. Time is money. And don't have to worry about these massive machines screwing something up.
  15. Rivian, please ”add” a power button

    I certainly appreciate not having a power button. I love being able to just get in and go. End of drive, just get out and walkaway. Absolutely wouldn't want to give up that capability. I understand the OP's point. For me, when sitting, I just shut off the headlights and a quick two tap to turn...
  16. Introducing RMaxx Running Boards & Rock Sliders for Rivian R1T / R1S from Team 1EV

    Two thumbs up!! When will they be on my porch? :-)
  17. To New Owners - Don't be scared. Problems are not Rivian, they happen to all manufacturers.....

    Just the design of the truck. Up to 70 MPH, it's not too bad. Over 70 MPH and yes, wind noise picks up, especially if you crack open a window. As noted, its a brick going down the road. I've had Tesla. As expected, the Rivian is louder, that doesn't mean its bad. I can still have NORMAL...
  18. Stock price - do people realize Rivian (RIVN) is NOT Tesla (TSLA)??

    No doubt, Covid changed everything. The government then screwed that up to by giving virtually everyone a few dollars, even those that had no need for it (sending millionaires $1,200 checks or debit cards). Then they screwed up more by showing some people they could take in more income staying...
  19. Stock price - do people realize Rivian (RIVN) is NOT Tesla (TSLA)??

    I agree. My point was that we saw this happening several years ago. When the stock market goes from 18,000 to 28,000 (dow) in 3 years or 4,300 to 7,000+ (nasdaq) or 2,000 to 3,000 (s&p 500) (50% gain in just three years), signs are there. Naturally, people had more money and were going to spend...
  20. Stock price - do people realize Rivian (RIVN) is NOT Tesla (TSLA)??

    Yep, government knew inflation was out of whack and chose to do nothing. Had they made small baby steps to raise rates, we could have adjusted slowly over time. Instead, they more than double rates in a short period of time. For budget conscious people, that's nearly doubling someone's mortgage...
