  1. 12-Month review: I can't recommend the R1S for most people

    Translation: Yeah, yeah! How dare you, OP, criticize the perfect Rivian brand? How dare you expect for your SUV to do what it is supposed to do and do it always!? What is wrong with you!? How dare you not come up with workarounds when features do not work as intended!? Suck it up, move on, or...
  2. XCare Extended Warranty on Rivian: My Full Claim Experience (And Outcome)

    My Rivian will go out of standard warranty in 2029; battery and drive unit warranty will expire in 2032. I use years instead of miles because I would not exceed the mileage coverage first. I may revisit this until close to 2029. Right now, this outfit wants $6.2k for coverage through 2035, which...
  3. Christmas Lights?

    So therefore a-okay. What a hopelessly flawed thinking, wow, and you actually are so goddamn dumb and selfish as to post this reply. Unreal.
  4. Christmas Lights?

    I keep thinking I WILL report this post for being so reckless, selfish, and downright dangerous, never mind idiotic, not just to you but to all the other fellow drivers who share the public road with you. Your posting sure looks hopelessly devoid of any regard whatsoever for everybody else's...
  5. Gen 1.5 NACS Charging Dispenser Technical Specs (RAN Charger)

    With the outlandish and absurd prices that RAN apparently charges, I wonder if the yellow color on Rivian dispensers is actually gold. RAN charger near me, $0.62 per kWh. 5 miles away, a certain charging company has dispensers also putting out as much as 300 kW; it costs $0.42 per kWh to charge...
  6. Christmas Lights?

    Just glad you are not (I hope) in law enforcement. Putting stupid holiday lights on a vehicle, while some apparently find it cute, amusing, and inspirational, is actually a very stupid, idiotic, asinine, and illegal thing to do in most places thankfully because it is distracting and very...
  7. Rivian May Be Much Closer to FSD Than You Think

    Heck, Rivian cannot get even much simpler, trivial things like Homelink, MFA, etc. to work well or are half-assed attempts at best. And Rivian now might be closer to FSD than we think? Yeah, sure. Tesla, the supreme leader, is much farther ahead on this, but I seriously doubt that even Tesla...
  8. Another damn bug? No auto-lock after leaving the truck open for a while

    Have never done what you do. PAAK for me forever, proximity locking and unlocking works well; disabled at home. What I have noticed is that now it takes longer for my Rivian to lock itself up whenever I walk away (I listen for the owl hoot.) Have to check app to make sure that it is locked.
  9. I no longer worry about vampire drain….

    My Rivian drains as much as 2% of the pack on a daily basis. A far more pressing concern for me is to figure out how long it takes for paint to dry or how much taller my grass gets in 24 hours.
  10. I no longer worry about vampire drain….

    Well, I'll be damned! That would mean that GM has found and done and end-run around one of the fundamental laws of Physics. James Prescott Joule was full of it, a phony, then! Newton, Maxwell, Tesla. Perhaps you are on GM's crosshairs next!!
  11. Tesla Model Y. Rivian One Pedal Driving wins - hands down.

    Drive, own a Tesla, and perhaps you have. Having started my EV life with Teslas and driven them plenty for years, one needs not have a Ph.D in EV science to quickly notice that Rivian is inferior to Teslas, especially in software integration. Don't get me wrong, Rivians are good, too, but...
  12. Tesla Model Y. Rivian One Pedal Driving wins - hands down.

    Undriven for a year, took out my glorious Tesla Model Y Performance for a spin today. If Rivian's regen implementation is the yardstick, regen braking on my beloved MYP is just as strong and excellent as, if not better than Rivian's. Perhaps regen has changed in Tesla later models. Regen on...
  13. New Rival: 2026 Jeep Recon EV revealed. $65,000, 250 miles range, 0-60 3.6s

    That's a ton of money for a Jeep. Range could/should have been better, but, kWh for kWh, range is par with Rivians. Actually, better range than Rivians. Kudos to Stellantis. A "Trail Rated" badge, whatever that means, is a hell of a lot better than Rivian's grotesque, childish, infantile...
  14. Just fix the software

    Ladies and gentlemen, Through this thread, I have done the legwork (so you don't have to) smoking out and exposing some of the most hardcore Rivian fanboys that this forum is so infested with. Watch their replies one after the other. Kindly, I encourage you to keep this in mind should they ever...
  15. Just fix the software

    I now am seriously thinking about purchasing another Rivian. The Rivian hopeless fanboys on here have enlightened me and made me realize that what truly matters is that Rivian has stylish service centers and spaces, and as if that were not enough, Rivian also came up with the greatest, most...
  16. Just fix the software

    I will buy another Rivian solely because the Rivian service center or space in (enter location) is so stylish and beautiful, That's what''s extremely important to me. ROFLMAO!
  17. Just fix the software

    Yes! My Rivian, my Teslas have the brights set to Auto dimming. Set up and forget. They all work beautifully.
  18. Just fix the software

    Tesla service centers have plenty of style, but ultimately that is chaff in the grand scheme of things also. What matters to me is the service provided and done right. Style does not make my EV better. fixing it correctly does. I submit that the so-called style cartoon Rivian rubbish...
  19. 20" Inch DO NOT BUY Pirelli Scorpion XTM Elect: Major Hydroplaning Issues After 2,600 Miles

    Could you perhaps have defective tires? The 21" Pirelli Scorpions on my R1S have been outstanding; the Pirelli P Zero summers on my Tesla MYP have been excellent in every way as well. Absolutely nothing wrong with my MYP Pirelli Sottozero 3 winters also. I swear by Pirellis.
