Ah, engine bay hot is a good description of what it feels like. I know it's not temp controlled and it's pretty hot out these days but it feels like there's something in the area of the truck that's adding heat. Our MY frunk doesn't get that hot so that's what concerns me. Thinking I will add...

We’ve had our Gen1 R1S for about a week now, still looking for excuses to drive it every chance I get ?. One thing I have noticed is that the Frunk seems overly hot. So much so that I don’t want to put any perishables in there (groceries, etc.). I haven’t stuck a temp sensor in there yet to...

Mahalo for the tips! DIdn’t know about needing the G27. Interesting fact, the Delivery Center guys said that almost half of the R1’s they prep are headed to the outer islands. I actually grew up on Maui and would definitely make better use of our R1S’s off road capabilities there. Mostly asphalt...

For me, the whole process (not including my 2021 pre-order) took about 2 weeks from ordering a vehicle to have one delivered to my driveway. This is not typical (see below) but possible. I could write a small novel about the experience but for what it's worth the current plan for our next...

Yes, not enough of these types of stories nowadays. Big Aloha to RJ and the gentleman who has passed.

Any update on your "project"? Curious to see if this works better than Plasti Dip. I like the release agent, no need to mask the tire so it should save some time. Might even be ok to leave the wheel on the truck?

Very nicely done!

Florida …. you need to move.

How did you get your R1 to work with your gate? I have a MightyMule opener that also is old and uses dip switches (no rolling code) but my R1S won‘t recognize it. My 2 garage LIftMaster openers programmed no problem. Thanks in advance.

Let’s see…..end of summer, Texas, car in sun for 2 hours. Interior was probably well over 100 deg F when you got in so yeah that AC was cranking as hard as it could at that moment. If the cabin eventually cooled down and the sound calmed down as well I think you’re fine. Exterior sound level...

Should be getting our R1S with the 21's delivered today (very excited). How did you get that much miles out of the OEM's? I've read elsewhere here that they typically go pretty fast and everyone just chocks it up to "all EV's go thru tires fast..." Our eTron had to have the tires replaced a...

I am interested because I have a teenager that may be driving ours occasionally ?

If this was out of the store it’s possible. If it’s a custom build no way. As far as the voucher it won’t matter. I’ve been talking to Rivian all last week and they assured me that as long as I get my order in by first week of Sept it’ll be fine. Rivian doing the right thing. I got lucky and...

I’m actually in the process of picking up a Gen1 R1S Quad Large with a similarly good lease deal.

Wow. Looks like a great deal. How did you find a Gen1 R1T?

Dang it!

FWIW the wireless charger in our Model Y doesn’t reliably charge my iPhone 15 Pro Max with case.

We’re basically driving around in a computer …. Which I’m totally fine with. At least the Rivian design and finish are more like a regular truck vs our Model Y which 100% feels like you‘re driving a PC around.

Correct. Does anyone know if that's an add or if that camera was in Gen 1 as well?

Thanks for the reference. Does anyone know if that's improved? Q2 2023 is almost a year and a half ago. Rivian has been shipping R1s for maybe 3 years so relative to today that's half the company's retail life ago. I know most of us are definite fans here, I know I am, so just trying to find...
