Here’s Doug’s latest review of an R1S Quad - with kick turn (At 5:50), and RAD Tuner.

Made my own using indoor/outdoor carpet from Costco (brand is “Mohawk”). Easy to cut.

Delivery day. No dings. No scratches. No marks. Well done Rivian!

I also have the Harbor Freight BadLands jack. Built like a tank. I really like the height adjustable extension that allows the jack to work with everything from passenger cars to lifted off-road vehicle. 5 stars.

I’m using the Fanttik X9 along with a 4-way inflator/deflator. Works great. https://www.amazon.com/Fanttik-X9-Portable-Flashlight-Compressor/ https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0D7PTNM9B/

TFL tests a new gen 2 R1T Tri Motor on some rocky icy terrain (starts at 14 minutes). They also test a Ford Ranger Raptor with front/rear lockers for comparison.

Here’s a brief video of the R1T getting assembled. Lots of video cuts but you can get a general sense of the build process. Ends at 9 minutes followed by the Ford Lightning and the Hummer EV at 14 minutes.

Full bed liner spray with custom body panels and custom lift. Any idea who built this? (Skip to 3:40)

Unfortunately, yes. I complained (wrote a long letter), but doubtful anything will come of it. Horrible policy that I’ve never seen before (I’ve cancelled Porsche and Mercedes orders both with $5k fully refunded).

I’m out. I ordered a gen 2 thinking that many of the gen 1 “issues” would have been resolved. But reports from new gen 2 owners haven’t been the most encouraging. So I canceled my Tri/Max. Makes me sad, but I can’t see taking an “adventure” vehicle out on adventures if I can’t trust it to...

Here is an interesting analysis of the Rivian company highlighting the cash flow problems.

As a fan of your YouTube channel, I tried using your referral code for my gen 2 reservation. DENIED. I really don’t understand how Rivian, as a new company, doesn’t do everything it can to make sure it‘s customers (new or existing), are provided the best possible experience. Restrictions...

As a future new owner (R1S ordered), reports like this are really discouraging. I don't mind an issue or two with a new vehicle, but not getting repair work done quickly and correctly is disheartening. I am really considering cancelling my order and eating the $3 grand deposite.

R1S TRI/MAX ordered first week of announcement with delivery in ??? Good times.

Well I’m confused. My R1S/tri/max/blue/slate-sky order hasn’t changed and I’ve had no messages from Rivian to the contrary. Am I missing something?

Remember these things? Obviously Rivian would need to make some changes.

I’d like to see a simple main battery cutoff switch. Off means off, zero drain.

My Rivian guide says my order config (tri-max) is locked. I guess we’ll find out, but it seems like the sales staff isn’t getting a clear message on this Issue.
