A "clever" implementation? You are a very kind person, or reek of political correctness, or all of the above. But...exactly! Who the hell designed this MFA aberration that requires and indeed relies on an external piece of hardware for it to work! And what if I do not have my phone or lost...

And just how many people have died in Rivians from CO2 poisoning exactly? Have run my R1S on Auto climate forever. And from Facebook. Seriously!!!!? Is it just I, or is today sensationalism day in the Rivian world?

Great news. At the Rivian service center since last Friday, got word today that the 7.5k service work is complete, including the fitment issue of the driver door and other minor things that I reported. The repairs also fixed the whistling noise I had heard from the driver side. For $250, Rivian...

You got more than your fair share of malfeasance with your loaners. Great that it all appears to have worked out for you. From my vantage point, you did not lose your fob because old. It is because, in my view, stupid key fobs are an [expletive] ICE-age abomination disgrace, worthless...

Did you not see what I listed in my comment? Should there be something you cannot grasp, well, perhaps read again.

Bottom line, this is a welcome Rivian update. Do you know if it will make it to Gen 1s?

My 5 years experience with Tesla suggests precisely that Tesla managed to do both masterfully. I like my R1S a heckuva lot. I just sometimes wonder WTH? with how Rivian does, or not, some things!!!

From what I can tell, Rivian "Multi-Factor Drive": 1. Enter vehicle 2. Press brake pedal 3. Notification appears on display-> Approve drive to get going 4. Pull out your phone 5. Unlock your phone 6. Launch Rivian app 7. Authenticate from Rivian app--> Yes, let's go. 7a. Or authenticate if...

The fact remains, it is a lousy implementation. Rivian needs to learn, copy from, imitate the master.

Oh. Thank you.

I fast forwarded to what piqued my interest, PIN to drive. It seemed overly complicated having to use your cellphone for it. I know of several places where there is no cell reception. Forget something extremely easy and user friendly to use such as plastering a keypad on display screen for...

Weighing in at 5 tonnes, I dare say that the Hummer makes Rivians look bulimic.

Update on my trip to Rivian SC in Bellevue, WA. Had to stop in Ellensburg to charge a little to make it to North Bend for a deep charge. Used up 93 kWh to travel 187 miles or 2.02 miles/kWh, AP, standard height, average speed 65 mph. Total trip time: 6.5 hours, 300 miles. I have said that I am...

I have noticed that the bottom of the frunk tub gets warm. Does anybody know of a fridge or cooler fridge that fits, say in the back of R1S and can be plugged in?

Why does the website have this item with a big alert " Frequently returned item"?

I hate you! :)

Sure, it [price] does depend on location, but by and large, Tesla electricity is cheaper than what the other lesser pickpocket networks want.

Obviously my favorite EV for long trips, my beloved Tesla Model S Raven received free Tesla supercharger electricity not for one, two, three years but FOR LIFE. I ain't forcing jack on nobody. Not my decision, not my concern. A great perk that came with the car. Quite glad to take it. I...

Useful info. Thank you. My trip to the Rivian SC in Seattle will take probably two deep-charge sessions only, cheaper to pay the Rivian price at Tesla chargers. The Tesla SC I plan on using, which is in North Bend, WA: $0.32 Rivian charge; $0.26 for Teslas. Here is one interesting factoid. At...

80 psi or close to it? Does your Rivian ride feel as if you are driving the Flintmobile, i.e., riding on rocks? As for vehicle weight, I just had to find out. Pulled up to one of those semi weigh-in stations on highways with my R1S quad: 7,500 lb.
