  1. EVSportline phenomenal customer service

    Not so timely on responses to my requests lately, but they do stand behind their products. Much appreciated. Perhaps just overwhelmed by success on the support side?
  2. Custom modified bed rack for my Rivian R1T

    Same rack, but different installation method... TracONE Bed Rack $294 @ Home Depot Identical to $700 Thule model except for decals and top bracket inserts. I took the stickers off for a cleaner look. 800 lb. capacity. Mounting Clamps $37 @ Amazon These are designed for Toyota Tacoma and work...
  3. Underseat Partition Template

    I put together a quick template for a partition to insert into the slots in the rear underseat storage compartment. The attached PDF is for legal size paper. You don't need a cad program, just print it out and you will have a perfectly sized template that you can tack to a plywood panel and cut...
  4. RJ, Rivian Service is Broken

    That was my concern about upsetting people. I'm sorry if it upset you. It was not directed at you. What I observed at my SC were a some owners who were exasperated at having to wait at all, complained about the lack of the specific gear shop item they wanted in the SC that had just opened...
  5. NACS Adapter Storage in R1T

    Keeping mine in the frunk net. Have it in a felt-lined lens cover. Handy when I need without having to unpack the frunk, figuring that might be full of stuff if I'm on a long trip.
  6. Rivian reroute for a out of service charger station

    This really wasn't intended as an endorsement of one app over another, just a suggestion to use an app to double-check what the Rivian trip planner delivers, especially on any unfamiliar trip where you definitely will have to charge. FWIW, we didn't know about Chargeway before the November...
  7. Unreal Engine: Rivian UX Program Update: From Early Adoption to Full Lineup

    I'd love to have that. However the software engineer in me understands that offering such does increase the complexity of the install base on which the software has to be validated. Perhaps there is something in their build pipeline that would make this not a big burden.
  8. Unreal Engine: Rivian UX Program Update: From Early Adoption to Full Lineup

    OK, thanks for that clarification. I haven't had that same experience. Sorry I didn't understand. You're saying that the transition between apps isn't smooth, right? My R1T is also gen1, so I imagine there are no hardware differences. I wonder what could make my experience so different. ADAS...
  9. RJ, Rivian Service is Broken

    OK, at the risk of offending some here, I also have to remark that my visits to Rivian SCs have given me a glimpse at some fellow/sister Rivian owners. I saw a number of owners demanding what I would call "white glove" service experiences. I suppose that is a predictable attitude given the...
  10. RJ, Rivian Service is Broken

    I totally agree that there are plenty of rough edges in the Rivian service world. Can't imagine how difficult it must to expand capacity, train and onboard staff, and refine solutions as a new company... all while striving towards profitability. It is definitely not efficient and not a great...
  11. Unreal Engine: Rivian UX Program Update: From Early Adoption to Full Lineup

    This comment makes me think that you have strong opinions about Rivian's UI, but didn't bother to watch the video. There is really interesting information in there about how their UI objectives of low resource use, fault tolerance, and tremendous efficiencies. If you don't like the UI, you are...
  12. Unreal Engine: Rivian UX Program Update: From Early Adoption to Full Lineup

    Stumbled into this amazing video from the 2024 Unreal Engine conference. It provides great insights into Rivian's unique UX design, compute hardware for the infotainment system, rendering drive modes and driver display, the software stack and dev process, as well of the talented team of experts...
  13. Moby Dick - The Silverado EV RST FE Reviewed By Rivian Owner

    Good summary from the OP. We also rented a Silverado EV while our R1T was in the SC over Christmas and New Years and used it for a road trip to New Orleans. Rented ours from Enterprise. It was the 4WT work truck rather than the fancy and $$$ RST version. While we missed the creature comforts...
  14. Rivian reroute for a out of service charger station

    Glad you made it. I don't yet have much experience with this on my R1T, but I can say this is a common scenario with EVs in general. IMHO, this has much more to to do with reliability/maintenance/transparency of EV charging infrastructure than it does Rivian's capabilities. For longer trips on...
  15. Apple CarPlay & Android Auto Solution is Coming Soon... (seriously) -- by EV Play

    I'm in. Left a message via the web form at your web site. This seems mostly to be an independent device, just like those sold by other vendors. The only difference here is that it provides a way to toggle what displays on the built-in infotainment screen rather than having a screen of its own...
  16. Comma AI / OpenPilot Autopilot Progress on R1!

    Quite a character! Hadn't seen anything but the demos before.
  17. Cost of ownership, parts, and right to repair

    I'm in quite the same situation. Rebuilt from salvage and no warranty but still a bargain. I don't have any more repairs to make, but would definitely chip in for access to service manuals, diagnostics, parts and OEM tools Don't want to run afoul of Rivian's rules, but feel a bit held hostage...
  18. Illinois Brand New Rivian NACS Adapter - Unused & Ready to Go! (Chicagoland/NW Indiana)

    I'll take it. I'm in Texas so will have to ship. (512)669-1351 m
  19. CATL Standard Battery Supplier BLACKLISTED

    Given that Tesla uses those battery cells, I expect this problem will go away in 11 days (January 20). ;⁠-⁠)
  20. Educating ourselves on Rivian's autonomous driving history, present, and future

    Very interesting read. Excellent information, even if some is speculative. While I am just as prone as others to geek out on what is possible, I think that we may be missing a key point.... Rivian has moved on from gen 1 and is largely disincentivized from enhancing self-driving features on...
