  1. Rivian Connect+ pricing = $14.99 monthly / $149.99 annually

    $149 a year is definitely not $0 but I mean come on guys, if you can afford to purchase an R1 or an R2 you should be more than capable of paying $149 a year IF you want the features Connect+ enables. There are direct costs to Rivian to supply these features on an on going basis. If you don’t...
  2. Poll: How often do you use your frunk?

    Makes zero sense to leave golf clubs in there for 99% of the time, I don’t play golf that often, maybe 4-5 time a year for charity events ( most boring game ever if you ask me) but sounds like I play it a lot more than you, and would never leave clubs in the frunk! šŸ˜‚.
  3. Rivian planning dramatic expansion of RAN charging network

    Sorry, but I’ll believe it when I see it! 4 years in and only 1,000 Adventure Charging stations nationwide! A lot of which have only two chargers??? Applaud the intent but sadly don’t have confidence in the execution or it arriving anytime in the near to medium term.
  4. Looking for Ceramic Coating Install Recommendations - Raleigh NC

    Thanks guys, really appreciate the recommendations and all of the responses all valid points and might look into doing it myself after getting a few quotes.
  5. R2 will be my first EV, so what L2 charger should I get?

    I can only vouch for the Chargepoint as that’s what I’ve been using at home for years, never had an issue so far!
  6. Looking for Ceramic Coating Install Recommendations - Raleigh NC

    Hello All, I’ll be picking up my 2026 R1T in the next few days. I want to have it ceramic coated and I’m looking to see if any owners in the Raleigh NC area have had ceramic coating installed (not looking to do protective film) by a local company and could make/give a recommendation for the...
  7. My turn! To close the garage door while opening the tailgate.

    When I had a smaller garage and it was tight getting my then vehicle in. I hung a tennis ball on a piece of string from the ceiling such that once my windshield touched the tennis ball I knew I was far enough in to be able to close the door. Only takes a few minutes to set it up. Worked...
  8. R2 non-powered frunk is a mistake?

    I can understand why some folks might prefer a powered frunk on the R2,but when you’re cutting costs and making a smaller vehicle, it’s unrealistic to expect same feature set on the smaller vehicle. Personally I’m indifferent to it being powered or not but if asked would I pay for that feature...
  9. Common Myths About CarPlay

    Seriously, you need to sell your vehicle, it’s clearly causing you to be delusional. Thankfully there is a mute function so given you can’t move on I will. Best of luck in your crusadešŸ˜‚.
  10. Common Myths About CarPlay

    Then stop making simple facts or whatever else you want to call them and move on. CarPlay in a Rivian is not going to happen.
  11. Common Myths About CarPlay

    Based on your frustrations and your strong desire for CarPlay it seems the best solution would be for you to sell your Rivian and buy a vehicle that supports CarPlay. I doubt Rivian will support CarPlay in the near future or at all, regardless of how vocal the minority that wants CarPlay is.
  12. R1T Trade in Value vs R2 Performance Price

    20% to 30% depreciation for mass produced vehicles in the first year is not unusual!
  13. Common Myths About CarPlay

    Ignorance is bliss! You will be able to do all that and do so much more with AI Agents. Apple WILL have these eventually, I’ll be surprised if it’s not in iOS 27 in some form. As I said in my first post most Apple users are not very tech savvy and are blinkered to Apples current offerings. Let’s...
  14. Common Myths About CarPlay

    CP/AA are outdated interfaces. AI agentic voice controls are the way forward. Rivian’s AI is already showing the earliest signs of this with Google Calendar integration without having AA. Rivian have already said they are working with Apple. My guess is waiting for iOS 27. Apple missed the boat...
  15. Common Myths About CarPlay

    I think you’ll find Rivian is ok with folks choosing not to purchase a Rivian due to lack of CP/AA just as other manufacturers who also don’t and won’t off them on future models. You’re fully entitled to make a decision based on your preferences just as Rivian is. But you’re in the significant...
  16. Moving from Ford Lightning to Dual R1T….a few questions

    After serval months of thought post Ford announcing the cancellation of the Lightning I decided to pull the trigger and order an R1T yesterday. Completed all the required docs and trade in photos today and now awaiting date for pickup. Ordered the 2026 Dual R1T in Forest Green with Performance...
