Well, It’s official. As the owners of a Tesla and Rivian we are now a 2 BEV family. Our Tacoma pickup (sold in April) and Audi S3 (sold in February 2021) are now history. After nearly 2-years and many changes to my R1T configuration I finally took delivery this afternoon. The vehicle had 16...

I predict Rivian will have a price increase for 2023 R1 vehicles. I predict current reservations will be impacted and a Tony will be sending out an e-mail soon. Your thoughts? Did they learn a price increase lesson earlier in the year when they had tons of cancellations? Bottom line? Rivian...

I noticed used R1T pricing has started to trend down. I see the same thing happening to Ford Lightning pickups. I think the rising interest rates, inflation and stock market volatility have thrown some shade on the used car market.

Hello all. I received contact from my Guide last week stating that they matched my R1T configuration and to get ready to start the 8-step purchase process. It sounded like the truck was already built and awaiting shipment. With only 10-weeks remaining in the year I decided to delay my purchase...

This review should be helpful for new R1 owners who want to protect their robotically applied factory fresh paint. Enjoy...

Rivian just loaded a fresh set of trucks on the LA site. I counted 55 trucks in total with some Launch Editions in the mix. Be quick!!! Here are simple sample trucks…

10,000 charging cycles and charging in 3 minutes. Could this be the battery technology that will put the final nail in the ICE coffin? https://www.autoevolution.com/news/harvard-engineers-invent-a-solid-state-battery-that-never-dies-it-s-a-game-changer-198518.html

Hello all. Who is still waiting for a Rivian truck? Your group is a patient one!

Freshly trucked up from the Mira Loma train depot! My other half and I decided to swing by the Costa Mesa SC to confirm our wheel, interior and paint choice. We wanted to see everything in person since the lot was rather bare during my First Mile drive in May. I never had a chance to see 4...

Unfortunately it’s aimed at commercial users and not road worthy. Very cool! https://www.autoblog.com/2022/08/29/munro-ev-off-road-suv-scotland-us/

Rather interesting video regarding Rivian. Check it out…

They spent a day with 3 versions of the R1T and were generally quite impressed. They said the trucks acceleration was “ridiculously quick”. ”As much as we like the Rivian, it’s pricey, and we’ll be watching its reliability closely - first year models and startup manufacturers tend to have bugs...

Rivian’s come with a very generous bumper-to-bumper and battery pack warranty. If you purchase an R1T this month you are covered by the factory bumper-to-bumper warranty until 8/2027. Did it influence your purchase decision over other vehicles? My hunch is that Rivian will shorten the...

I have owned 1 black vehicle in my life and I said never again. Then I viewed this R1T in Midnight Black. Knock that devil off my shoulder!!!

I completed my First Mile test drive on Friday. My immediate styling impression? Volvo. Install a Volvo emblem on the nose and the R1T would look at right at home in a Volvo showroom next to their current portfolio. That’s a compliment to the Rivian design team. I remember back in 2005-06 when...

I completed my R1T test drive this morning and wanted to share my initial thoughts and impressions. I have never seen an R1T up close and personal. I have only viewed them in traffic when they were moving. STYLING My initial styling impression? If Volvo built an all electric pickup truck this...

Hello R1T owners. Does Rivian install double glazed side windows, also referred to as dual-pane windows, on the R1T? We have them on our 2021 Model Y, 2020‘s did not have them.

Those who ordered the optional Yakima rooftop tent may be interested. NOTE: Skip through the long mattress commercial at the beginning.
