  1. "The Straight Pipes" guys hammer the R1S (Gen 2) for 30 minutes straight

    The setup of my gen2 key fob was hot garbage. I received it in December, Rivian was finally able to get it working in FEBRUARY. If there was one thing that resonated with me in that video, was his explanation of getting access to the vehicle done.
  2. EV Play Preorder - Now Live (and working!)

    Still not quite warmed up to the subscription fee. But i *think* you landed on a good place with the price point. Again, I have the Tesla HDMI input adapter that highjacks the backup camera SDI input. That was more expensive than this product. Can you disclose exactly what your are missing out...
  3. 20" Inch Goodyear Territory AT 275/60/20 Factory AT tires + saving $

    Appreciate all your hard work on this. I've been literally waiting years for this discussion to finally get to some real world data. I care more about efficiency than you do, but cost is also a factor since I drive 25k+ miles per year. The 22s @ $600 a piece with a rougher ride just aren't a...
  4. Tesla nefarious behavior?

    I'm almost 100% certain that Tesla has been doing this for years, it's nothing new.
  5. Rivian R1S Dual vs. Tri vs. Quad Comparison Review by Out of Spec

    Surely there is a middle point between the severely deficient attention span of a vertical video and a feature length movie? Personally not complaining, I will nerd out right along beside you.
  6. HVAC and Motor/battery Waste Heat

    Interesting observation that I haven't seen. Specifically discussed. Started a drive with ambient air in low 40s and no HVAC. About an hour in, it got chilly so I turned the HVAC on and set to 72°. Within the next 15 minutes, front motor temp dropped from 123° to the low '90s, and still...
  7. Rivian headlights at night in snowstorm = zero visibility

    There has not been an option on every other cart you've driven to have just fought lights. Not if it was a road legal vehicle.
  8. R1S Dune with Michelin Defender LTX M/2 Tires (275/60/R20)

    Maybe.... Extrapolating out the standard battery pack EPA estimates, the 20 "A/S" OEM gets you 390-395 miles of range when applied to the maxpack on R1S. Now. Could those numbers be wrong? Of course. I still refuse to believe there isn't a 20" AS that blows by the 22" OEM AS by 6%. O think we...
  9. Which ADAS is Really Driving? It’s Mobileye!

    Id just like to add that the mobile eye system, for it's intended feature set, is pretty solid. We get into problems when we try to make it do something it wasn't intended to do.
  10. Gen 2 Quad Wheels for Sale on eBay???

    After having the stagard OEM 21" Arcachnid wheels on the Tesla, never again. They looked sweet but boy were they expensive to keep on the road.
  11. Why not display HV pack temp while charging?

    Because you all lost your minds when they gave us battery health. Can you imagine the insanity if people saw temps in the 130's+??? MaH bAtTeRY iS dEgRaDiNg!!!
  12. Rollup "Powered Tonneau Cover V2" available option on some 2025 models now

    You think they did the dual motors this time instead of an axel that can twist under torsion?
  13. Tire recommendation for R1S Dual / Max Battery?

    New information to me, the AS option for the 20's will get you back up to 395 miles est. when it comes time to replace the ATs.
  14. Reminder: Rivian Promised Level 3 "Eyes Off the Road" Autonomy on Gen 1

    I mean, if we are playing that game.... My 2016 Model S with original Mobile-eye platform can do more than any current Rivian..... And if you jam an orange into the steering wheel, it becomes upgraded to Level 3.
  15. 20" Nitto Recon Grappler AT tires 25% more efficient than Pirelli OEM AT! The holy grail!

    Not sure if this is new news. Gear shop claims 6.8% range improvement of 20" AS OEM over 20" AT OEM. On the max pack, this is 395 miles of range. So that tells me there is still a holy grail of an actual 20" AS tire out there that can do better than the 22" OEM of 410, at the expense of off-road...
  16. Rivian recalls 17K 2025 R1S / R1T over headlight issue

    I'm not Not sure I've noticed that problem with my max pack. Does it happen with certain L2 chargers?
