  1. Loud Rattling and Loose sounding suspension.

    Mine has always sounded like a 1992 Ford Aerostar with worn out bushings I've had them look at it several times and they say it's just how it is because ThE sUsPeNsIoN iS sPeCiAl I don't have that high pitched rattle in the vid, but I suspect the phone may not have captured the full spectrum...
  2. A moment to appreciate... the Frunk

    Never, but I've heard a lot of onlookers mutter "duuuude did you see that? That's sick!" Or "wow did you see that!?" You're the one securing the mattress to the roof of your car, aren't you? It's important to keep it from flying away on the highway, after all Fe Fi fo frunk.... Fruuuunk freaaak
  3. A moment to appreciate... the Frunk

    Holy cow pro tip here! I never pop it from inside but it stands to reason some do.
  4. A moment to appreciate... the Frunk

    Unclear. I must try. You know, for science I guess it depends on what kind of Costco shopper you are. As long as you're not getting TP or paper towels and stick to the basics that still somehow cost $300, you're good!
  5. A moment to appreciate... the Frunk

    ... The front trunk. I don't think it is getting the love it deserves across all EVs but the Rivian, specifically. Some people (fools!) don't utilize nor care about the front trunk. Little do they realize, one can fit a pizza large enough for a family of four in there, meaning I don't have to...
  6. Rivian deposit refund refusal

    Yeah that really sucks but you gotta read the email before getting excited and click happy. Not sure that Rivian gets blame here but I feel your pain Big ol' d'oh moment Hopefully there's a way they can back you out of it for the sake of (potential) customer satisfaction
  7. Software Update 2023.50 -- Scheduled battery preconditioning & other useful improvements!

    Residential here in Tucson. TEP will nickel and dime from here to the moon There are a few demand plans to choose from, but in order to have the EV plan, they require you to choose one of them It's the most convoluted plan/billing system I've ever seen in my life
  8. Software Update 2023.50 -- Scheduled battery preconditioning & other useful improvements!

    Demand charge They measure the highest rate of delivery for the month for (15 min?) Increments during peak hours and charge you $10 per kWh So, since I charge at 9 kWh, that's a $90 demand fee if the charger kicks on The upside is that it's disgustingly cheap at night
  9. Software Update 2023.50 -- Scheduled battery preconditioning & other useful improvements!

    Erm, that note about time-of-use regarding this feature worries me. Is this automatic or optional? I don't really want to wake up at 5-something-am to unplug just in case it decides to maintain during peak hours That's a $90 mistake for me if it decides to charge outside of my schedule... I...
  10. Software Update 2023.46.01

    2022 5k vin - haven't noticed anything amiss with vampire drain nor accelerator pedal Updating now
  11. Cruise-control and auto-steer stop working when I hit a bump

    Happened to me once. It was less a bump and more a sharp dip in the road going 60 Reset fixed it
  12. Active Grill Shutters

    Maybe I'm just backwards, but shouldn't the active shutters be closed unless needed? Mine are wide open while parked and off while I imagine they would only open when the battery needs to cool down. Currently it's pretty cold at night and moderate during the day here in AZ... I'm not sure if...
  13. I have to finance an R1T is this a bad idea?? No lease available in Utah

    My dude, if you're thinking about a vehicle purchase in terms of investment then ALL vehicles are a fundamentally bad investment. You're going to have to look at your use case, what you need, and weigh it against what you want vs what you can afford. In my case, I needed a truck, didn't want...
  14. Truck does not go to sleep - losing excessive battery parked/locked

    This happened to me and it was the driver's seat occupancy sensor. It thought the seat was occupied at all times.
  15. Trying to not take the R1T for granted

    I had a similar experience with a different vehicle. We also have MME in addition to the R1T and love both. Sometimes I get a little cranky about some of the things in the T - little rattles, more service trips, etc. Note: I was very sentimentally attached to a 2007 mustang GT prior to going...
  16. Key for Rivian Rack

    Well, damn. side note, you could have also re-cored your racks with new Yakima cores and I'm assuming it's cheaper than getting them from Rivian. They come with the key blank to remove the Rivian cores unless they changed up to a whole new core design with new key numbers (naaaaaaah...
  17. Key for Rivian Rack

    That sounds excessive... They're just standard Yakima cores with Yakima keys If you only lost one, you could have gotten the key number from the remaining key and ordered from Yakima. It's etched into the rivian key.
  18. Odd Behavior of a parked R1T

    One time I had a faulty driver's seat sensor so it always thought I was sitting in the chair. I could lock it manually, though the lights and infotainment all stayed on
  19. Low speed 'Tocking' when stopping or starting

    I'm not sure if this is mentioned, yet, but in my case it was clutch packs. Is you put it in conserve the noise may stop (no clutch packs in front) Each rear has a clutch pack that has to engage/disengage, which I didn't realize. Mine were (bad?). They tocked excessively. So far so good with...
  20. Those who hand wash their Rivians...

    Step stool and Optimum No Rinse - I just wash it in my garage without using a hose!
