Just reached 5k miles on my Gen 2 R1S DMP and planning to rotate my own tires. Purchased 1EV Sportline Magnetic Jack Pucks and a 10–ton Big Red bottle jack to facilitate my rotation.
The bottle jack’s stem does not fit inside the empty cylindrical cavity inside the 1EV Sportline jack pucks. The...
Thanks for the update. Very relieved this is happening. Richmond folks are nice enough but it's a haul from the Triangle.
I expect this service center to be busy—seeing more and more Rivians on the road.
Thanks so much for sharing this. I came to the forum to research exactly this topic. Approaching 5k miles and starting to plan for the rotations. Discount Tire sounds like they're very hit-and-miss relative to the specific location. I definitely don't want inexperienced people working on my R1S...
In the Apple Music interface in the truck, if you turn off Spatial Audio (under your Apple Music profile, top right person icon), it will turn off Dolby Atmos and will increase your sound volume and, IMO, actually enhance your audio experience.
I think I understand what Apple are trying to do...
Accidentally purchased two pairs of the OEM Rivian dark cargo crossbars, so selling this second pair. Brand new, never removed from the box. Available for pickup in RTP NC area or will ship at buyer's expense. $550.
Also picked up my Gen 2 R1S in Sept and happy to let you borrow my A2Z Pro if needed. I am in Cary (although yesterday they changed the spelling to Carey for one day to honor Mariah Carey). ?
Nice work. Looks great. I also have Limestone (22” Dark Sport) and the chrome drives me crazy. I'll be de-chroming things soon.
Did you consider plasti-dipping the C-pillar compass logo?
I got it! But barely. ?
I’ll do a longer write-up when I have time, but I nearly wasn’t able to leave the service center with my new truck because it was throwing up two errors the moment I sat in it. I was so discouraged and thought for sure I was going to be driving two and half hours home in...
Now that I finally have a guide assigned (or several, actually, from the Richmond VA service center—who have been great btw), I am gaining a clearer understanding about how things happen at Rivian.
One thing I learned, for example, that might positively affect your situation, is the dynamic of...
Same here. Some generic "Purchase process opens soon" and a "1-2 week" timeline. I'm done believing anything the config page says. It's all just a placeholder for a future that will inevitably occur but unlikely in the timeframe you want or expect.
Funny: I asked the guide in Normal if my car...
This is the way.
I really want to like Rivian. And I'm confident I'll love the vehicle when it's finally delivered. But this purchasing process has left a lot to be desired. It is extremely opaque and answers from Support are essentially unhelpful. And then, this also happened...
I finally...
First off, congrats! Now the wait begins. :)
You're already starting to have the right frame of mind—start thinking about what specs are must-have vs nice-to-have. In that spirit, I have heard (from Forum and folks at Rivian) that Darkout, Dynamic Roof, and Air Compressor are the specs that...
I could understand losing a deposit if you’re canceling and not staying with Rivian, but they really shouldn’t penalize people for staying in the brand if they found a car sooner. That seems very harsh.
Rivian's unprofessionalism is beginning to wear on me.
* I had a meeting scheduled with my "Inside Sales Guide" after he sent me an email saying he found a matching VIN. He stood me up. Never called me when scheduled. Also never responded to a single email or text. Not a single reply.
