  1. August delivery updates are in! What is your new estimated delivery window?

    Ditto for me. R1S’s must be pushing R1Ts out. My Max Pack + Dual Performance moved from Oct-Dec 2023 to Feb-Mar 2024. That may do it for me… tired of waiting, since 10/2021. Pre-March pricing was nice to have… but only if it actually buys you something, and life only lasts so long. The Max was...
  2. Having Trouble Seeing the Value of a Max Pack R1T (on 20's with pre-3/1/22 pricing)

    If I could add a #4… Given the Max Packs increased battery storage, another way to increase adoption and value would be for Rivian to provide the Max Pack R1T a more robust inverter option, say to compete at least a little better with some of the ā€˜work truck’ features of the Lightning (say 2 or...
  3. Warning: Do not close your frunk by hand!

    Yes, common issue and one of the general points of this thread. What is the opinion of the group: Could careful, ’artfull’ application/ā€˜injection’ of a layer of some type of expanding foam (typical big box hdwr store ā€˜Great Stuff’, or Loctite -type product) or a glue-on application of a...
  4. Is anyone else as pissed off/frustrated at having to pay for the reinforced underbody just because I need the 20” wheels?

    …Unless you are a pre-March ā€˜22 order… in which case you can still modify your existing config to have 20ā€ wheels and/or the shield… but you can’t order the spare separately or select an all terrain pkg that includes those 3 options.
  5. Tint roof? Amount of heat let in? Opinions?

    Although electrochromic glass may not be available from Rivian, there are apparently options for electrochromic film which can be applied to existing glass. My R1T is still months out from delivery, but living in Florida I plan to look into the possibilities of this for the roof glass if it...
  6. Rivian Insurance (Nationwide) not writing in coastal Florida

    FYI, I set up an appt. from the insurance link on the Rivian website and spoke with the agent yesterday. Since my R1T is not yet built (Max Pack, so hopefully Oct-Dec ā€˜23) they used a ā€˜hypothetical’ R1T VIN to allow him to give me a best guess of cost, as well as to try to determine even the...
  7. Manual & Powered tonneau cover info update - from my Guide on 7/24/2023

    The PTC was a critical factor for my pre-order, so like everyone I have been disappointed and (likely in vain) hoping for a miracle return of the PTC before my truck delivers. I have a Honda Ridgeline Gen 2 that my R1T will replace. Early on I happened upon a lightly used ReTrax retractable...
  8. Rivian Insurance (Nationwide) not writing in coastal Florida

    Thanks Christopher, that makes sense. I’ve made some fair deals on vehicle purchases in the past, but I’ve never purchased a vehicle with a very significant ā€˜discount’ off the manufacturer’s current retail pricing, much less one where I got a tax rebate as well. Still I wonder, given the...
  9. Rivian Insurance (Nationwide) not writing in coastal Florida

    Also in ā€˜coastal Florida’ (Rockledge… 8 miles from the ocean… 1200 feet from Indian River). R1T when the max ships, so have not looked hard at insurance yet… guess I need to get to it! So are any insurance companies writing ā€˜replacement coverage’ policies in Florida? After a 2 year wait, can’t...
  10. Warning: Do not close your frunk by hand!

    Not sure of exactly what (OEM) material my Gen 2 Honda Ridgeline bed is made/covered, but it seems to hold up VERY well to whatever I throw at it.
  11. 3 things I HATE about my Rivian R1T after 10,000 miles -- JerryRigEverything

    Better design idea? Give me the two-way drop-down/swing-out tailgate on my Ridgeline any day! Waiting years now for my Max Pack R1T, and this is probably still my biggest concern. Having the ability to swing the tailgate out allows GREAT and easy (bend at the waist and reach in) access to the...
