I agree. This is really the first I'm reading I may be charged for something that works without a fee today. I just assumed our Gen 1 trucks would carry on as they are. I'm cool with no more updates, thanks.
I have found that the in-truck navigation system does not accept any filters/presets. It chooses the route it thinks is best. I MUCH prefer planning my trips in the Rivian App. You can define way more parameters and I find it to be very accurate.
Recent road trip I experienced several weird...
I like R1.2
Solidifies the R1 as the flagship model in their lineup. Wish it was cheaper, but that wouldn't be right.
Hmm, biggest downgrade of the platform seems to be the lights. Gen 1 lights are so rich in detail. The little ovals patterned throughout are gone, as is the amber blinker in the...
Suspension Performance of R1S/T
(Full disclosure, I have a R1T on 20" AT and am a suspension engineer.)
The Rivian suspension system is probably my 2nd favorite part about the truck. Is it perfect, no, but it makes up for that by being the most versatile setup I've ever had in a vehicle.

They said the rear light bar has color ability, no? maybe it's a SW update away from yellow blinkers.
Feel very fortunate to have an early Quad Large truck, all the bells and whistles, $30k less than a new Tri Motor equivalent. Also confirms I won't be upgrading for a long time!
The black interior and Dark Wood was something I wish they did originally - looks fantastic, and those bronze accents! Mee-oww - happy with my Forest Edge though!
Glad to see a Darkout Option, will be doing this to my truck.
Anddd the kicker. To replace my Quad/Large 2023 truck, I'd have to...
Thanks for the photos and honest review. I'm a fan of the Cybertruck design, even if it's overall ridiculous. Stealth fighter, military vibes for me.
Great seeing the CT loaded up with logs, using onboard power to saw - real work!
It would be tough to choose a CT over a R1T, but I can see...
Feature set is up there with other Luxury products. Namely: Semi Active Air Ride suspension, heated/cooled seats, autonomous driving modes, glass pano roof, premium lighting all around, high performance powertrain, premium materials in cabin like wood dash, etc.
Every time I drive a rental car...
Praise be to Rivian for designing a proper rack system that lifts STRAIGHT UP AND OFF!
Well done.
I have a cheap manual hoist and do this same thing in my garage to keep the RTT off the bed. Love how it just 'clicks' into place when I lower it onto the truck.
Changes to Lightbar say one thing to me - EUROPE.
I believe it's regulation to have amber turn signals front AND REAR. The current design does not meet those regulations. Wonder if the thin line under the red bar is an LED blinker integrated.
