  1. Let's play a game - how did Driver + almost kill you this week....

    I have learned to limit my Driver+ use to relatively tame environments. There is a stretch of about 15 miles on my work commute that is relatively free of weird merges, lane realignments, and road construction. Driver+ handles it well and makes for a pleasant ride. Curvy roads are an exercise...
  2. How long after request for address did you get your NACS adapter?

    Where do you see this? When I look at order history in my account I don't see the adapter listed. I'm beginning to wonder if they lost my order. Got the email in April and confirmed right away.
  3. Drivecam requiring Infotainment reset since updating

    Drive cam has always been flaky for me. It works for a bit then quietly stops. On Sunday I noticed that both drive cam and gear guard had stopped working. An infotainment reset fixed both. I know that a hard wired dash cam would be more reliable and provide better video quality. Just haven't...
  4. How Rivian Became the Anti-Tesla (Bloomberg soft paywall)

    Best Cybertruck insult ever ? the Cybertruck, a pricey, futuristic pickup with limited appeal beyond the divorced dad demographic.
  5. Rivian Q2 2024 Production & Delivery Numbers Announced

    I thought RJ quoted a 35% reduction in cost of materials for EDVs during a media factory tour a couple weeks ago.
  6. Gen 1 major ride quality & handling improvement after 2024.19.04 software update - how's your experience?

    Definitely an improvement. More subtle though than the last round of suspension updates. I have settled on the moderate suspension setting after it was introduced in an earlier update. It does feel smoother now. However, I did find one stretch of freeway where the rear of the truck started to...
  7. Ineos Grenadier drive event

    Saw my first one today on interstate 80 near Fairfield , CA. A blue Trailmaster edition ...not sure if it was Shale or Brittania. It looked so familiar that I didn’t realize it was a Grenadier until I noticed the stamping on the hood. It was towing a green Porsche 914. Me thinks someone has a...
  8. Does anyone else hate Gary?

    OP sounds like he needs a hug.
  9. One button to close all windows?

    I like the creative suggestion. However, Rivian would not be the first. Mazda had oscillating center vents in the 626. The button was labeled as “swing”. We had a late 80’s model with this feature.
  10. Going from Lake Tahoe to Eureka... charging questions

    If L2 is available at one of your stops then it definitely is worth taking advantage of. Adding ⚡️ while you are doing other things will save time and ? at the DCFC.
  11. Going from Lake Tahoe to Eureka... charging questions

    Also, get the PlugShare app. I find it helpful to scan the route for alternate charging stops in case I want/need to charge a bit sooner or want to go a bit further before stopping. Looks like you have a couple of alternatives for a midway charge in the Chico to Redding stretch.
  12. Refresh impact on efficiency ?

    I’m hoping the changes will increase desirability of OG LE configs.
  13. Insurance Rates hiked citing 800+ hp for QM R1S

    I have been with GEICO several since 2013. No “HyperCar” increases since adding the R1T last year. However it has been a challenge with teen drivers being defaulted as the primary driver on the R1T and jacking up the rates. I had to move the teen and her car to a different carrier to get the...
  14. Motortrend: R1T comes out on top versus Hummer EV and Cybertruck

    Love how they slip in the zingers... "The Cybertruck is a lot like the head of the company that makes it: One can never be entirely sure what it will do next." :CWL:
  15. 20" Inch YOKOHAMA GEOLANDAR CV 4S | 275/60R20 - 116H - 660AA - 3PMSF

    Tempting. ? But, not available in stock 20” size of 275/65r20. Don’t really want to deal with the calibration change from 34” to 33”. I assume you started with 21” then made the switch to 20”, thus the 60 profile.
  16. DIY Tonneau cover

    I made a quick and simple DIY cover last year. Purposely went with a raw and unrefined look to ensure I would follow through on a real solution. https://www.rivianforums.com/forum/threads/diy-temporary-tonneau-bed-cover.10300/post-329818 Still have it in the corner of the garage. Free to anyone...
  17. Got a refund on my Rivian insurance ?

    Thanks for the tip on the switch to Progressive. Helpful to know this is where they are rumored to be heading. The biggest problem for me has been having a teenage driver on the same policy as the R1T. Geico automatically rates the highest risk driver on the highest risk vehicle and won't make...
