  1. Manual Tonneau Cover on Back Order

    Yeah, exactly the same situation for me, with delivery 30 December 2023. Please report back here if they allow cancel for refund.
  2. What insurance companies are you all using?

    Also in FL (coastal) - oh, in fact 10 miles from you (Rockledge). Was with The Hartford but after back to back annual > 25% increases (before R1T delivery) I had to do something. Reached out to Rivian/Nationwide 2 mo. prior to expected delivery and made the switch. They were surprised they could...
  3. Has Rivian upgraded the MagSafe charger?

    2024 model year picked up 12/30… iPhone 12 Pro… after removing case, I still have to move the phone all over the pad to try to find the sweet spot for charging. So no, I don’t think there has been any noticeable improvement. At least in R1Ts. I’ll be going the aftermarket route for a better choice.
  4. All Terrain Upgrade - why the loss of 50 mi of range?

    In cost comparisons, keep in mind the All-Terrain Pkg also gets you a spare matching wheel, tire, and tire kit… and (on the 20ā€) an additional 88 lbs or so to carry around.
  5. Ghetto method of powering the house with a Rivian

    Ultimately all of this points to the clear desire by owners to make full use of their ā€˜battery on wheels’. Whether for backup power, for off-grid electrical access in the wild, or for ā€˜work truck’ options when the grid is not readily accessible. What we need is full OEM support for (safe...
  6. My EV Sportline CarPlay Display Hidden Wires Install

    RaceKarl, This is great! Thanks! I did not realize or had forgotten that the background was part of Apple’s CarPlay functionality and adjustable via settings. And PangPang thanks for showing the background samples… I think I can find one of those that will work for me after my install. Much less...
  7. Ghetto method of powering the house with a Rivian

    Hmm… is that so Mr. Seattle? :) (18 years in Florida… then 15 years in Seattle… now back in Florida for many years… and now with my new Rivian :-)
  8. Rivian to the rescue! 120v plug keeps sump pumps running during storm

    Is there anything about the Rivian inverter that will limit the continuous running time of 120V power from the outlets? Will is run as long as there is juice in the HV battery?
  9. Ghetto method of powering the house with a Rivian

    I’m a non-electrician, but I have built and successfully used (still use) several ā€˜suicide cords’ with my small generator to more conveniently get through multi-day power outages over 30 years here in hurricane country. Disconnecting my house from the grid is always the first step. But I’m still...
  10. CarPlay & Android Auto Smart Dash Screen has arrived! New from EVSportline.com

    PhatDaddy said: But what about the physical button on the top of the display? Does it or does it not turn the unit off - completely - until it is physically turned on again (regardless of time duration, vehicle wake/sleep mode, etc.)? Well that would be GREAT... HOWEVER kylealden says... "This...
  11. CarPlay & Android Auto Smart Dash Screen has arrived! New from EVSportline.com

    OK, so as long as the app is closed (not running in background) AND you have phone location settings set to 'When Using' and not set to 'Always Allow', correct? Others have indicated if app is closed but 'Always Allow' is on, it will still wake the vehicle. But what about the physical button on...
  12. My EV Sportline CarPlay Display Hidden Wires Install

    Thanks for the info and images. But so no other backgrounds, huh? Like one with one uniform color :-/ Surprising. I think the top of the dash makes the all the color seem more noticeable to me. I’m use to my CarPlay screen lower on the dash.
  13. CarPlay & Android Auto Smart Dash Screen has arrived! New from EVSportline.com

    Yeah… this is my (pre-install) concern. But regarding the screen waking, there is a physical button on top of the screen… my assumption was that if it was ā€˜turned off’, it would stay off until that button was pressed again (next hour, next drive, next day… whatever). Is that not how the button...
  14. CarPlay & Android Auto Smart Dash Screen has arrived! New from EVSportline.com

    Sorry it didn’t work out for you. I have not yet installed mine, but am concerned I may too find it ā€œtoo much going onā€, especially since I am new to EVs and huge dash screens. And with less than 300 miles on my R1T so far it seems like a whole new world of screen time attention while I am still...
  15. My EV Sportline CarPlay Display Hidden Wires Install

    My EV Sportline unit arrived a couple days ago, but my brand new R1T is headed to the Rivian (partner) paint & body shop Friday for a gear tunnel door paint chip present at delivery, so I’m holding off on install. Has anyone found a more subtle and less bright background/color scheme for the...
  16. Official Rivian Portable Charger Guide

    So for the most flexibility no matter where I wander, would the best bet be to purchase the Tesla Gen 2 NEMA mobile charger and the kit with all (or at least a large assortment) of dongles… along with a NACS to J1772 adapter. My understanding is that the Tesla unit is sophisticated enough to...
  17. Premium Charger v3: Just Snap It In

    Looks great. On the waiting list, so does that get me Gen 2? Trying to be patient…
  18. Go Fast Campers

    Old thread, but I swapped emails with GFC yesterday regarding ā€œAny plans for R1T fitment?ā€. This was the response: ā€œWe do not have any plans currently to do a R1T though we do get the request often. It is just such a difficult bed to design for.ā€
  19. CarPlay & Android Auto Smart Dash Screen has arrived! New from EVSportline.com

    Excellent! This is great news. So to clarify that you are using exactly the components I plan to use: Your install includes 2 Apple branded mag safe charging pucks and the StowNCharge dual charging pad, and you used the EV Sportline described F48 fuse location - correct? When you say ā€œall is...
