Just had a tire repaired at Discount in Albuquerque this morning (a slow leak from a Phillips screw that has been in there for months).
I mentioned that we came to DT because they were trained on how to jack up Rivians. Offered them the use of my pucks. Asked that they only jack the one corner...
I purchased 2 additional key cards for my gen 1 R1T last year. Walked into the local service center and bought them as a part. $60 a piece.
No technician programming required since I have a key fob already.
I had similar question. Copying here the product description text from EV Sportline site. Seems pretty solid. Rear bar appears to require modifications that would not make it removable without damage.
I really like these. Would be perfect if they had mount points for a winch and lights.

I don't know what this has to do with competing with Tesla in Texas.
There are certainly issues with parts distribution to service centers and independent garages, to say nothing of the logistics mess that is the Rivian gear store.
$9.9M seems a fairly small investment to set up a logistics...
Based on my experience, I would take that 12v error as a warning. Now is a good time to make sure you have another 12v source handy (i.e., not in the frunk) that you can use to "jump" your Rivy and get going. Beats having it towed.
I also have a single Ohmmu in my 2023 gen 1 R1T. I bought my truck from salvage so am not covered by warranty.
Beginning in September, I started getting "12v Failure, tow vehicle" errors.
The first time was when driving on the freeway; it did allow me to continue driving for 2 miles to a safe...
Just some weirdness yesterday morning... No map on my driver's display. Steering wheel buttons do not cycle other options. I do notice that, when signaling, the video side mirror view does display. ADAS warnings and audio volume displays also do not show up.
Persisted overnight, but resolved...
I just have a trauma kit in my go bag, stored in the lower frunk. No need to be restricted by the Rivian form factor or to pay those gear shop premiums.
I'd be delighted to buy those from you.
I won't be in the area until next month, but I have a niece in Denver and can ask her husband to collect them at your convenience.
You should know that your Costa for Tesla plug-and-charge are significantly higher than if you have a Tesla subscription and use the app to initiate.
I have had plug-and-charge with EVGo (now mostly GM branded), but it is not tied into RAN so you do have to download their app and use a credit...
It seems to be a bit of a contrarian investment strategy. In other words, don't buy after the good news and the price goes up. However, that assumes the price will come down. I don't think that is a given.
Sorry if this is a dumb question, but what would be the difference between the 115 and 119 load index versions? Would one expect differences in wear, ride quality, efficiency?
We are on Pedernales Electric (PEC) here in Hays County.
We have time of use rates, which shift seasonally (summer rates higher). Paying from 4.5¢/kW to charge late at night. Max peak rate during summer is 9.7¢/kW.
When we have both EVs plugged in, I reduce the charge rate for my R1T overnight...
