First gen, got it last month.

This is cool and all, but I like my practical office chair. I can have my morning coffee and never miss my Monday morning meeting.

I recently switched from the BMW X7 to the Rivian R1S. While the build quality, infotainment system, and overall ride quality of the BMW were exceptional, I find myself facing some compromises with the Rivian. Although the recent update may have improved the suspension on the R1S, I haven't...

I can’t do that everywhere I go, and I always back in when I park my car. It feels that Rivian got these cameras from temu.com ?

Good idea, I’ll give it a try, my only dilemma with that option is that I have two boys, 6 and 4, and they play T-ball. I can only imagine where it will be if I look away for a second.

The rear-view camera frustrates me and grinds my gears. When backing up in my garage, I'd normally like to get as close as possible to the wall to leave as much room as possible in the front. With all other cars of the same size that I've owned, I was able to see the edge of the rear bumper and...

I'm glad you like the Rivian, and I agree with you on many points about prioritizing what you really need. While having all the bells and whistles is nice, if you don't always use them, why spend the extra money? I'm jealous that you already received the charging adapter, but I'm happy you did...

In my view, the subwoofer in the R1S positioned at the rear is primarily responsible for the heavy lifting, although the front door woofer could handle a bit more work to enhance the lower frequencies. Getting what I want in terms of sound quality requires raising the volume above 18 and...

I don’t think that Rivian is using the same Meridian crossovers and had no time to tune the new batch of crossovers they got to meet the car production demand. The speakers themselves are not of bad quality. I don’t have the means to measure acoustics, but I’m planning to stop at a local audio...

I believe the issue lies with the Rivian crossover not distributing sound correctly. I've had multiple cars with standard to premium sound systems like Bose, HK, and B&W. Unfortunately, Rivian falls somewhere between standard and premium in terms of sound quality. The Rivian brand speakers...

It's right across from the Farmers' Market. My wife loves to go there. I guess for me, it's a win-win situation where I can drop off my wife at the Farmers' Market and my car across the street for the state inspection at the same time.

I've heard some terrifying stories about people being pulled over for expired inspection stickers. Managing the risk, it is cheaper to have the car inspected than to deal with the stress of being pulled over by an angry cop who acts as if you've committed a serious crime and issues a hefty ticket.

What do they look for in a brand-new vehicle anyway? We barely use the brakes, the tires are brand new, there's no emissions to check, and the car manufacturer must comply with all safety requirements before selling the vehicle to the public. Besides the State getting my money for absolutely no...

Crazy question. Will Tesla dealership inspect my R1S? I have one right next to my former BMW dealership :CWL:

I’d try it if I was you.

Is it connected to your house WiFi? I got my R1S less than a month ago and received the new update last weekend.

What is the s What is the PSI in your 20s? My 22s read 51psi which I think is too high.

I agree. My X7 was so smooth it felt like I was driving on clouds. My kids would fall asleep in it within five minutes of driving.

I really went for the appearance; I love the way the Rivian looks on 22s. I was thinking that since it has air suspension, the ride would be, if not the same, at least close to my BMW X7. Again, I did not expect the Rivian to be on the same level as the X7, but I hoped it would ride better than...

Same! I wasn't getting an update until my vehicle was paired with house Wi-Fi. This could be a coincidence, but I received a software update notification that same evening.
