  1. Rivian fares poorly in "independent" charging-performance test

    From AMCI website Most of AMCI Testing’s work is behind the scenes, because our clients are almost always major automotive manufacturers looking for a critical and truthful evaluation of their own product vs. the competition. My guess is a manufacturer (perhaps Toyota) paid them to create a...
  2. Where is Camp mode?

    I don’t see tent icon for Camping controls
  3. Pre Order price vs Now

    The difference is around $15k. This applies only to Quad Motors.
  4. Check my math, please.

    1 mile per kWh is very low. I have had my S less than a week and I have averaged 1.6. Many owners are are getting near 2 on 20s. I have spent a fair amount of time sitting in it with heating on without driving while I learn how to use the user interface. One small interval data point is not a...
  5. Feeling Ghosted by Rivian Customer Support

    UPDATE A day late and a little waiting around in Bellevue while they replaced rear bumper that was scratched. It was a nice sunny day for first drive. My 15 year old son was blown away by all the tech. We spent an hour in the driveway going through all the menu options, though I still feel...
  6. Feeling Ghosted by Rivian Customer Support

    UPDATE I called Guide again today repeatedly without leaving voicemail. Surprised when a few minutes later he called to say he’d noticed my missed calls. I told him he missed my texts and voicemails since Wednesday and he found them in the logs and apologized. Anyway, I managed to get a...
  7. Feeling Ghosted by Rivian Customer Support

    Did anyone else get a message that looks like it might be from Rivian but is actually from proof.com that asked to click on link to get a document notarized?
  8. My New Rivian R1S broken down after 40 days: “Limited Performance” issue.

    If you believe this failure was a safety issue you can report it to the government (NTSB, I think). If it is indeed a dangerous defect it may result in a recall, which will benefit all of us in the long run.
  9. Feeling Ghosted by Rivian Customer Support

    I know the wait is no big deal. This 2 days of silence is what is bugging me. Good thing I had completed all the purchase tasks. If someone had texted back yesterday that no slots were available I would have been happy. This sloppy customer service model is disconcerting though. What is...

    3 texts and 3 voicemails worse than my employer’s IT support. Almost ;-)
  11. Feeling Ghosted by Rivian Customer Support

    Do you always get the same Guide? My account says Danny R, but I have never been contacted by him. I have been helped by several other guides.
  12. Feeling Ghosted by Rivian Customer Support

    I have a delivery date set up for Tuesday 11/07. Financing went quicker than expected. All pre-delivery steps are complete. R1S is ready for delivery. I would like to try to get a sooner delivery time. I have been trying to contact Guide West support by multiple texts and phone calls since...
  13. Unexpected Conserve vs All Purpose Efficiency Behavior

    It certainly is interesting that the trend line is such a different shape. I take delivery of S very soon and will be able to record similar data for my trips between Seattle and Whistler.
  14. Unexpected Conserve vs All Purpose Efficiency Behavior

    Is there a reason that you don’t have more data for AP in the 0 to 40 deg range? Would that not improve the quality of your curve?
  15. Don't text and drive - even if you're a cop... patrol car rear ended R1S

    Nearly every other vehicle I have looked at lately has a sacrificial rear plastic panel with boundary that extends from wheel arch to tail lights. Rivian appears to have made a rookie mistake with the side panels.
  16. Lapped the Olympic Peninsula today with R1S

    My wife and I love the OP. Thanks for sharing. Maybe we’ll do that trip soon. Our S should arrive in a week or two. Hopefully a good charging option will come to Port Angeles soon. Often we explore the north end only.
  17. When you steal a Rivian Amazon EDV but don't know how to drive ?

    Expecting Amazon to be posting a thread here whining about cost of body repair
  18. Advice for winter tires?

    Thanks I switched to 20s from 21s to give me the option to do what you have done. I will run the ATs this winter to assess whether I am comfortable with them in PNW conditions.
