Interesting, I tried that as well, and I didn't even get the hopeful "maybe later" message, just "I'm sorry, I can't change my voice. Is there anything else I can help you with?"
You were able to get it to speak faster? I asked and it said, "Sorry, I can't."
One thing I liked: The Maps navigation voice is better now, WAY more natural sounding, kind of like an NPR Radio intern. I'm happy that it no longer says "in a QUORT'r mile, make a left turn" or "turn left at the...
So now that 2026.15 is out, what works, and what doesn't work? What do you wish it could do, that's not quite in the inaugural release?
For me, one of the biggest QOL changes would be to "turn on/off rear accessory mode." It's something I always forget to do, and then takes 4-5 taps while...
Good timing. I just did a "panel gap wind fix" yesterday.
I've always noticed a whooshing above my head from near the A pillars on both sides, but after installing a GMRS antenna with 5mm RG58 coax running up the passenger side of the windshield, it mostly went away from that area and I only...
Oh nice, ty!
From the video, it supports two separate WiFi networks too, which presumably means one can be at home, and one can be the hotspot from the truck itself, which may be helpful when in camp mode or anywhere away from home.
I'm running the HACS Rivian integration on HA, and don't see anything that reports on 12v battery, other than the normal-operation/fault indicator.
I'd really like to see when and how often the vehicle wakes from sleep to top off the 12v battery. Is there a way to do this?
Not a fan from the pic, but could be one of those things that look better in person?
IMO it's so stark that it's a higher risk that you might not like it or it stands out too much, especially against a fairly muted Launch Green. How about color-matched to your paint, or the Quad bronze instead?
Their roadmaps and timelines stretch out for years and years. I'm sure R2's gen2 lidar specs have been baked in for nearly a year by now, including vendor selection. This is probably for gen3.5/gen4.
I think he has an R1T, which has (or has room for) the full-sized spare.
Even if the spare if flat, remember, there is always the on-board compressor! A flat spare is probably not from a nail, or at least will be a slow enough leak where you can still use it.
Hard agree. It seems easy to say "just use an available 3p solution, but we've seen over and over that this can present present and future limitations that significantly impact plans, some major, some minor.
1. Tesla and Rivian started camera autonomy with MobileEye. This was eventually found...
The eye-tracking worked seamlessly well for me. It was always accurate, but I did find it too aggressive - a few seconds off the road to try to change the nav volume or see what my tire pressure were and I'd get an annoying warning on screen and chime.
After the Autonomy demo ended, I went back...
IIRC this was one of the original charging integrations. I recall setting it up sometime during the months-long wait for delivery.
But I have no idea how it works, I've never been able to use it because every chargepoint I've ever been to requires you to tap to unlock the handle, at which point...
Some of the graphs also seems to include idling at a stop. I don't know why sitting at 0mgh would ever result in 10+ m/kwh (seems more like it should be zero m/kwh).
The energy monitor graph has always been super unintuitive to me, and I have to take several minutes to back into the math to make it work (which negates most of the "at-a-glance" value).
I'm assuming it means you consumed a total of 6.1kwh. BUT, that doesn't include the 1.7kwh regen.
The...
Interestingly, I saw a Bosch-branded, lidar-equipped ground truth car for the first time yesterday. Maybe it's the start of a wider marketing campaign for them.
Here, there is more than just a purely speculative "what might it do in the future?"
Musk and Tesla were out there touting full self driving capability in all of their cars moving forward. If you bought it today, this is what the hardware will be able to do. these were specific claims made by...
