Curious about this myself. Would love to see photos of it mounted. The magnetic base seems convenient since I’m guessing you could just take the display down when not needed or wanted.
Yes, the SiriusXM announcement last year was something my parents were really into as they placed their order and later took delivery. For them, it’s a must and is expected some time this year. For me, it’s just ok. Apple Music is my preferred option, so I’ll be fine with that.
I’m very...
Conveniently, you can choose what apps are displayed on CarPlay. I only used it for Waze, Apple Music, Spotify, Overcast, and SiriusXM, so those were on the first page, with all other third party apps removed from the interface. It was refreshing to have all that customization. Didn’t realize...
I think you are correct that most would primarily want Waze. That’s where I am on this. It isn’t a deal-breaker, or I wouldn’t have purchased my R1S. However, it is such a glaring omission to not have it that I seriously question RJ and his team’s ability to make basic decisions going forward. I...
The setting is in your phone. Go into Settings on the iPhone and search CarPlay. Select the vehicle name, and turn it off. That doesn't affect Bluetooth at all. If you've paired it that way, the connection remains and is separate from CarPlay. What you're likely referencing is the fact that you...
I don't think anybody has ever advocated for Rivian not pursuing their own software development. The vehicle is a massive piece of tech, so it wouldn't function without it.
The debate about whether CP/AA should be a feature isn't one of abandoning the native system. Many people want...
Yeah, this level of integration would take some thought. I don't know how the two systems would interact and co-exist. It certainly makes it easier for Rivian to reject it going forward and to justify its previous stance, even though the initial decision had nothing to do with the new, yet to...
The response you are quoting said nothing about overwhelming. The only time I have mentioned that term was in my later response to @degennetten, who agreed with your take that it wasn't overwhelming. You can view it any way you want, but I think the goal of a simple poll like this is to see...
Just messing with you to keep it lighthearted. I always find it comical (and somewhat depressing) how mad people get at the folks that want this capability. The premature victory laps just brightened my day a little, so I appreciate it.
As for your claim that it isn't overwhelming, I think I...
Love this. I have the same build but couldn’t pull the trigger on stealth ppf due to price. It looks great, so I’ll have to settle for drooling over yours. Haha! I have chrome deleted the top strip and HyperDipped the emblems. Loving those modifications.
I recently got the Snapbag and like it a lot. It isn’t the cheapest option, but after trying a few of the cheap Amazon trash bins, I took the plunge and haven’t regretted it. It’s out of the way since it attaches to the back of the seat. I didn’t get the reusable liner. I just use regular trash...
Is there enough room for the door to close with your AirPods in the compartment?
I want the StowNCharge so bad, but man, it's a steep price point considering you still need to buy the pucks as well. I have to stop buying stuff for this vehicle. It's getting out of hand. Ha!
This is exactly what I do. I’ve been on several long trips now, so planning out the stops in advance and then using charger to charger navigation in the R1S has been my best option. Always starts off with the warning that I won’t make it, and that’s even when I have something like a 50-100 mile...
