  1. Wheel Alignment Services

    Rivian recommends Discount Tire for wheel alignments. Please note that not all Discount Tire locations have alignment machines, so I recommend checking their website to identify which stores offer this service. Additionally, it's a good idea to call ahead, as my local Discount Tire that...
  2. Comma AI / OpenPilot Autopilot Progress on R1!

    Another significant benefit of MDAS is less brake wear too. When OP is engaged, it uses the pads to slow and brake the R1, not regen braking. I confirmed this by watching the brake pedal move every time OP lets off the throttle.
  3. A Beautiful Disaster — Rivian Is Not Ready for Prime Time

    For what it's worth, Club Rivian recently posted changes are coming to the network….. Rivian Steps Up: Big Changes Coming to the Service Experience The Rivian ownership journey has been filled with excitement — but not without a few growing pains.

    DEAR GIFT
  5. $24,950 SLATE EV Truck / SUV Info & News

    Even if the crash worthiness is good, physics aren’t on its side. Look at the smart cars, they have a nearly unbeatable safety cage, however survival rates are low due to the impact forces and nonexistent crumple zones. I don’t think many people will want their family inside one of these with...
  6. $24,950 SLATE EV Truck / SUV Info & News

    It'll still be in the $40K range with all the options.
  7. A Beautiful Disaster — Rivian Is Not Ready for Prime Time

    I don’t defend the brand, but coming to a forum to complain over and over again about service isn’t going to help you or others. My recommendation to you and others frustrated with service, sell it. Purchase something that is reliable and more mature as a brand. He's late to the party. Will...
  8. Windshield replacement recommendations

    Find and call around to local glass dealers, such as PPG or Pilkington. If the glass is replaced correctly, camera calibration is rarely required. The vehicle will tell you if it needs it.
  9. BYD Shark on the Road Very Nice

    I’m impressed with the byd features and tech, but nearly every model they make looks ugly and disproportional to me, this one included.

    For those following... I'm happy to report that Black's Tire in Raleigh offers excellent customer service, and they successfully aligned our truck without any issues. We will be going to them now for all our tire needs.
  11. Comma AI/OpenPilot Update -- Watch it in Action on Gen1 Rivian (Video)

    I believe this is the one. This site and wording is super confusing to me. https://shop.tlbb.ca/products/magmount-set
  12. Almost 2K miles road trip on a Gen1 large quad R1T

    Nice writeup! You can factor in another $66 for the ICE vehicles. That's 2/3rds of the cost of an oil change for those that still waste time and money changing it every 3K miles. :like:
  13. Cybertruck Laugh of the Day [⚠️ WARNING: NO POLITICS; MEMBERS BANNED]

    I also enjoy reading over there. I've stopped taking my depression meds since I found the Cybertruck forum :CWL:
  14. Looking for alignment shops that service Rivian's in Raleigh or Wake Forest NC

    Take Discount Tire in Cary off the list. I called just now and they aren't doing alignments on Rivian's. They are waiting for some software update to their rack. No ETA on when it will be done either.
  15. Looking for alignment shops that service Rivian's in Raleigh or Wake Forest NC

    Thank you for sharing this! The person who answered the phone yesterday told me their equipment wasn't programmed for Rivian's yet.
  16. Looking for alignment shops that service Rivian's in Raleigh or Wake Forest NC

    Rivian service says Tirerack, Discount Tire, or Dunns (All of which are owned by Discount Tire) can perform an alignment. That said, I'm going to give Black's a go. If any warnings pop-up mobile service can deal with it next week.
  17. Looking for alignment shops that service Rivian's in Raleigh or Wake Forest NC

    I learned today that Black's Tire and Auto in Raleigh has Hunter alignment racks with the programming to work on Rivian's. They have not performed an alignment on a Rivian yet, and they advised that if the vehicle is significantly out of alignment, the dealer needs to reprogram the steering...
  18. Looking for alignment shops that service Rivian's in Raleigh or Wake Forest NC

    That was a surprise to me, too. The shop said if the alignment was too far out of spec, targets (which they didn't have) are needed to properly adjust all the safety systems.
  19. New RAN location in Nags Head, NC

    Dang that seems low. My G1 Quad only gets down to 1 mkwh when I drive on the beach. Are you aired down?
  20. Looking for alignment shops that service Rivian's in Raleigh or Wake Forest NC

    I need an alignment and I am having trouble locating any places in the Raleigh/Wake Forest, NC area that can provide this service. Many shops either do not offer the procedure or lack the necessary equipment to adjust the cameras and sensors afterward. If anyone has successfully found a place...
