  1. Innovative Invention: The History of Magnetic Jack Pucks for Rivian Vehicles

    The puck arrived safely yesterday. It appears to be a quality piece. I purchased a small hard case from Harbor Freight and used it to house by puck, wheel socket and work gloves. It stashes nicely under the rear seat next to my torque wrench and breaker bar. Thanks again!

  3. My new R1T and the Gang

    Congrats!!! I love white vehicles as well. The wifey teases me that my rides are always white. I never deviate from white on any new or used vehicle that I purchase. I must confess that I actually switched and configured Rivian Blue. That change lasted about 24 hours before I came back to me...

    You nailed this one… ā€œBE NICE. Be nicer than you even think you should.ā€ It goes a long way with any customer service person. Remember the proverb you can catch more flies with honey than with vinegar.
  5. My 2nd R1T modification - display screen protection

    After I received my truck back from my PPF installer I decided to install my 2nd modification. It was was a fairly easy one that required some patience and meticulous preparation.

  10. Officially Unofficial R1T Build Quality Production Ramp Thread

  12. Officially Unofficial R1T Build Quality Production Ramp Thread

    Funny, we rejected 2 Model Y's for poor body fitment and cosmetic paint issues. The 3rd VIN was 99% perfect and we accepted. I passed on the Rivian factory wrap. I just got mine back from my PPF shop. Full hood, bumper, mirrors, front valance, upper tailgate, front door sills and all front end...

    I will bet mine is close to your consumption numbers. It’s a 2nd vehicle and sits a lot. In will report back at the end of next week with actual numbers. Itā€˜s the only area so far where my R1T has failed to meet my expectations. It’s a hungry electron monster when sitting still.
  14. Initial charging experience and Vampire drain

    I’m going to log mine next week to see exactly how many miles are eaten up by vampire battery drain. I’m guessing it’s in the 2-4 mile range per day.
  15. Officially Unofficial R1T Build Quality Production Ramp Thread

    139XX VIN. Zero wind noise. Zero squeaks or rattles. Dead straight steering wheel with zero alignment issues. I only have one gripe. I do have some slightly misaligned body panels on the drivers side. I have a service appointment for next month to adjust them. I donā€˜t want to hear ā€œit’s within...
