Almost a year in, blackout emblems from @AO_Pete still holding up well.
I'm wondering if your installer just didn't create any templates to properly reinstall the factory emblems. My installer created templates marking out every single location of the emblems/letters when he handed them back to...
True! When I brought my car back to rewrap the front (took delivery with a few nicks that I had to schedule a repaint), Alex caught a bunch of issues on that piece that the body shop messed up on when clear coating.
He also wanted to rewrap my handles for free since he updated the template to...
Advanced Protective Films out of Santa Ana. Alex is awesome and I've lost count of how many Rivians he's wrapped. He does pretty much every car himself.

Initial wrap before Abstract Ocean's R1S badges were available...
I think according to the manual, the dock doesn't really charge. Trickle charge at best. You are suppose to take the speaker out and fully charge via USB-C before using. I'm on my second one because the first one, I didn't know about charging it and didn't try using it until 9 months after I...
Might be missing something here, but the Rivian hitch is 2" so no real reason to get the 1.25" unless you plan on using it on another vehicle w/ a 1.25" hitch?
Woah, Apple Music in the Rivian won't support podcasts?! That seems like a huge miss. I'm a Spotify subscriber and that does seem like a deal breaker then. It'll be bluetooth then if you go w/ Apple Music. Guess through BT via the Podcasts app?
No native. Your options are:
Already available:
Spotify
Tidal (do they have podcasts?)
TuneIn
Alexa > Amazon Music
Bluetooth
Rolling out now w/ latest update:
Apple Music
Audible
So for your consideration, whether Spotify or Apple Music, you'll be supported.
Finally got around to adding a magnet back to Gary. Used the same magnet sheet I used for the California CAV decals. Unsure if it’ll hold since the 3D print is heavier and has less surface area so there’s not much magnet material compared to the CAV decals. The rear quarter panel is the only...
Thats tough, you are being realistic. If you, like most owners get a unit that doesn't have any issues, you'll be fine.
I've been back to the SC (not too far) four times since I picked up my S. All for trivial, nit-picky items. Every visit has been great. Car never sat, got a decent rental or...
Here's a prior thread on the topic: https://www.rivianforums.com/forum/threads/in-search-of-the-best-hitch-mount-bike-rack-for-r1s.22719/
I opted for the Kuat Piston Pro X. I think the non-X model might fall into your budget on sale or used? Otherwise I assume the Sherpa, etc. should be good...
