  1. R2 Owner's Manual Guide posted!

    Don't most metro news networks have simulcast on the internet? that you could stream from your phone via Bluetooth (TV station's app or webpage)? And both iOS and Android have native weather apps. Plus, Rivian Assistant will have weather through a future update (allegedly). And yah, everything...
  2. 20" Inch Best 20" Tire for Max Efficiency (R1S): On-Road with Occasional Snow Driving

    Not only unfair it's a given that AT category of tires are inherently louder than AS. It's harmonics from those wider and deeper tread gaps. MTs are even louder for same reason. The phenomenon is the same as those singing roads, created by cutting grooves into the road surface. Gaps lead to...
  3. R2 non-powered frunk is a mistake?

    "Thou doth protest too much" for someone who isn't physically handicapped. File under first world problems.
  4. Grabber HTS60 vs. all. Why not more popular?

    And for those needing LT AT, but better on-pavement manners than the Pirelli AT, user reports on the 52 lb LT Bridgestone Dueler Ascent look very promising. Maybe slightly better than the top pick of Toyo OC ATIII EV. Cheaper too by about $80-ish.
  5. R2 Owner's Manual Guide posted!

    I don’t listen to radio. Haven’t for ages. And what I did listen to (NPR/Marketplace) has long moved to offering their content in podcast form. I wouldn’t miss FM at all. FM or AM, as long as there are alternative means for emergency broadcasts, I don’t see a problem in them being phased out...
  6. R2 Owner's Manual Guide posted!

    If it’s anything like R1, Gear Guard recordings are saved to internal storage, and can be transferred to external USB-C storage for viewing/transfer elsewhere. 4 year old video on GG: As for Road Cam: https://stories.rivian.com/software-update-2023-14-0
  7. R2 non-powered frunk is a mistake?

    Perfect end for the thread/non-issue.
  8. Topping off battery every 1-2 hours since last updates?

    Soft reset aka infotainment reset. This is a charging and sleep cycle issue, not related to infotainment. You need a hard reset. Hard reset also include a diagnostic log capture. So if you end up engaging Service/Support, be sure to mention it so they can look for the captured data in their...
  9. RJ says R3X is ~2 years away. Confirms R4

    Understandably so and wise. Lots of things can change in the business landscape in two years. And, even from week to week; as we all witnessed since last November. It's impossible for him to say anything and not have it get twisted into "but you promised". In another thread, someone has already...
  10. RJ says R3X is ~2 years away. Confirms R4

    Nothing new. They've always said R3 won't happen until GA plant is up & running.
  11. Probably overreacting but... Losing capacity fast?

    Good advice. However, not everyone can charge at home or get by daily/weekly with 50~60% SOC. So I think the matter of "best practices" is more nuanced than any one single rule/practice. In that context, I think it's easier to advise EV owners on what they mustn't do and leave the rest to...
  12. Front Sensors Off with 2026.15.01 update

    Well, I thought it's better for you (and anyone else) to see a verified source, as opposed to taking my word. Plus, RR is a great resource for owners and would-be owners.

  14. Probably overreacting but... Losing capacity fast?

    So does running it down to 7%. General consensus is to play between 20-80% as much as possible isn’t it? Not that going over or below would instantly cause irreparable harm. Just that larger charge deltas, frequently, add up to full cycles sooner? Engineering Explained videos on NMC and LFP do’s...
  15. Why stock getting hammered last few days?

    I would like to see actual proof where anyone at Rivian said R2 would get the company to positive territory before 2028. As I recall, they only said it is the model line that would get them there. They never said when. It sure looks like personal opinion is being misrepresented as Rivian’s...
  16. Front Sensors Off with 2026.15.01 update

    Why? There is no harm in doing hard resets. The ability to do it is there for a reason. And if you contacted support they would have you try it first.

  18. Maxtrax Jaxbase Plate

    I just stumbled into a new, or at least new-to-me, jack pad from Maxtrax. It's designed to mate with their Mk2, XTREME or Lite traction boards, and from a stable platform for jacks. It has a indentation for the Hi-Lift jack's rectangular footprint, which should also work with some bottle jacks...

  20. Finished R2 demo test drive? Share your review / impressions

    A few reviews I skimmed said the same thing about the halos... that it will probablly take some learning to "click" without accidentally rotate at the same time. Just from looking at images, this accidental rotation could probably be avoided if your hands are being enough that you brace the...
