  3. Rivian off roading photos -- post yours!

    I shared it in the spring time--front drive unit failure at the worst if times? Off-roading mishap
  4. Infotainment Crashes Nonstop After Last Update

    Yes, since last update, the transition from one screen (map) to another screen (drive modes) on occasion takes a few seconds with a black screen as the transitional display.
  5. Summer RTT Camping A/C Hack for the Win

    That's an interesting idea! One thing that I like about the orientation as-is is that I can reach down and adjust the A/C fan speed or temp from the tent. It's been fun seeing people's reaction to seeing the setup...it is a funny solution! I love that you can see that the A/C vent is blocked...
  6. Summer RTT Camping A/C Hack for the Win

    I'm currently 5,000 miles, and 11 days, in on a road trip. This A/C setup has helped me survive summer sleeping from Wyoming to Alabama and now Moab. I bought the used 5,000 BTU window air conditioner off of Craigslist for $75 and spent $25 on the dryer hose, clamp, and self-tapping screws...
  7. Lack of Crawl Control Off-roading Leads to Battle Scars

    I received the estimate to fix the damage. This is just for the various plastic trim pieces (a total of 10 plastic trim pieces were damaged): Parts $1,367 + 7 hours of labor. I'm going to have everything fixed, however, I have mixed feelings about the Rivian repair process. From what I have...
  8. Lack of Crawl Control Off-roading Leads to Battle Scars

    Over the past week of replaying the situations in my head, I wish that I would've tried two foot/pedal driving. I think that it would have made a positive difference.
  9. Lack of Crawl Control Off-roading Leads to Battle Scars

    No rock sliders on my R1T yet. With that being said, I think the DCE sliders would've done best in my situation. Actually, I think that the DCE sliders would've prevented 100% of the damage.
  10. Lack of Crawl Control Off-roading Leads to Battle Scars

    Do have the underbody shield, however there's plastic 360° around that shield: rocker panels, front/rear "skid plates" all plastic. The missing plastic from the rocker panel sheered off on one of the OMG moments of uncontrolled rock hopping.
  11. Lack of Crawl Control Off-roading Leads to Battle Scars

    I've read about--and have seen the videos--Rivian's lack of slow speed crawl control. Today was the first time that I've encountered off-roading situations wherein the Rivian four motor strategy had me experiencing real challenge. For those in the Puget Sound region, this trip was at the Reiter...
  12. NEW UPDATE: Version 2023.18.00 (Internal Beta): Scheduled Charging In The Rivian Mobile App, Driver+ Improvements, Usability Improvements, and More

    I feel similarly. Response from aggressive accelerator input is noticable. I feel that jabbing the accelerator pedal in All Purpose mode is more aggressive, too. I love it, and have been driving a long way home this week to do more, eh-em, testing.
  13. LOADD Sheett to Haul 12' Cargo (4x4 posts)

    I had my first use of the LOADD Sheett (8' extended) strap. Pictured are two 12' long 4x4 posts. Awesome product.
  14. How are people using their Hotspot?

    Same situation here. The hotspot is one of my favorite features, and would absolutely pay for an unlimited data plan.
  15. [Update: Made It Out!] Drive Motor Failure During Off-roading Excursion Through Water Crossing

    Got my R1T back today. I couldn't be more pleased with my interactions with Rivian staff. A bit more info about the failure: Driving into the ~18 inches of water led to unexpected water intrusion into the inverter housing for the front drive unit. Within just a week and a half, Rivian sent...
  16. Removal of frunk tub (front trunk): DIY how-to & pics

    I stumbled on your question in this year-old thread. I am very much interested in figuring out a winch solution, too. Have you learned more information since your question here, @Blueassassin?
