  1. Bluetti Portable Power Station - Is This The Deal It Seems To Be?

    The Bluetti AC180 is now 54% off, $459 instead of $999. https://a.co/d/bqum4Qe I did an impulse purchase at $499. They are really cleaning out inventory on this. It arrived, and I tested my use case it successfully. The picture shows it charging from the Rivian at 787W and powering the...
  2. MSW Type 52, black or gunmetal? My R1T is El Cap Granite.

    I did not. Not surprised. If those wheels are on a cargo ship from Italy, they won't get off the boat. This will be a minor issue compared to all the other stuff that's going to suck as long as we are held at container point by the unions Your vote matters.
  3. MSW Type 52, black or gunmetal? My R1T is El Cap Granite.

    I just did the same for the polished ones. Same delivery date :-)
  4. San Jose Service Center - timeliness, service, wait times, etc?

    Got my car back (originally scheduled many months ago, then it sat at the service center for a week until they even looked at it. It sat in a bad place. I have now ants in the car, and brown spots all over the paint. Anyone seen the same thing in San Jose? The spots are not from bugs, they are...
  5. 7500 Multipoint Inspection

    They want to charge me $120 for the inspection, on top of the $60 for the rotation (which I don't need). The $120 inspection seems to be four tire pressure measurements.
  6. Step by Step Removal of Second Row in R1S (DIY instructions w/ photos)

    I don't know what triggered it, but my seat started acting up weirdly at one point. the back was all the way forward, and refused to go back. Calibration fixed it.
  7. Step by Step Removal of Second Row in R1S (DIY instructions w/ photos)

    Hardware store, irrigation section (or plumbing) I actually switched to screwing nuts on them to protect the thread. Works well if you put a mat over it anyway (which is a good idea)
  8. How are you solving the Jack height problem?

    I have the same question :-) One that works with my pucks I am not ready for a full off-road shop style jack. There is no room in my car.
  9. How are you solving the Jack height problem?

    The learning is that it's a bad idea to stop on rock... always stop on dirt. I dug a hole in a nicely graded dirt road. After the winter, it will be a pot hole :-( Thanks for sharing, I am glad I am not the only one :-)
  10. How are you solving the Jack height problem?

    Yes please. Car in tire change mode and highest. I think that my problem is that when I test drive it in the drive way, the tire is full, and the car is higher than with a flat. With a flat, the car drops about 5" of tire wall (on 21"). Basically, in your case, you can lift 2" above ground...
  11. How are you solving the Jack height problem?

    I changed two tires (one front, one back), and both times I could lift high enough to get the flat tire off, but not enough to get the new tire on. The practical solution was digging a hole under the wheel in both cases. The problem is that my 10T red bottle jack didn't have enough lift. If I...
  12. Testing the Rivian as a ‘backup’ power source

    My use case is to power just the gas furnace when electricity is out. I am less concerned about losing the fridge content than I am about not being able to heat for a few days in the winter. The problem is that the furnace is hard wired, so I can't just plug it into the Rivian. As it is using...
  13. Master Thread: Suspension Sounds - What is and isn't normal?

    Are you driving it in the meantime? (I did file it with Rivian they will likely call me soon and as it to the other 4 issues)
  14. Clunking sound from front end.

    Mine :-( Front driver side, on changes from acceleration to deceleration. Forward a reverse. Video is on max height, but it happens on all levels.
  15. Master Thread: Suspension Sounds - What is and isn't normal?

    Where can you take it if you have these sounds, other than Rivian (next new appointment is December, but I have one in September for issues from months ago). Can a suspension shop diagnose, or even fix some of them? See attachment. These clacks are new (after 11k miles). Front Driver side...
