  1. Cybertruck Highway Range Test by Out Of Spec

    The efficiency and charging curve looks to be disappointing, especially compared to all of the hype we were forced to endure over the last few years. Let's hope that it charges better when hooked up to a 800V dispenser.
  2. Socket "two" me - more better: installed 12 volt outlets under the dash

    I did something similar in our R1S using fuse taps. I was going to use a surface mount like the OP, but realized that I could drill holes in the console organizer I bought from Amazon. Console Organizer USB Plugs 12V Outlet
  3. Outdated Maps

    Just wait until we're forced to pay for those outdated maps and incomplete traffic data.
  4. Rivian announces Free LTE Connectivity through early 2024

    Don't get too excited. It's likely that the built in SXM will be streaming only and linked to your VIN as if it was using the satellite receiver. That means you will have to pay for an additional subscription even if you have a streaming plan with another vehicle. I guess I will be forced to...
  5. SAE’s NACS certification is ready, and it’ll fix every EV charging problem at once

    I thought this was going to be a satirical thread. A broken EA station with NACS is still a broken EA station.
  6. What is the function of the socket on the R1S cargo tie down?

    Does anyone know what the the socket on the tie down is used for (circled in red below)? It looks like it should accept some sort of pin and appears to unlock when the button with the Rivian logo is pressed. It could be useful for attaching accessories like camp kitchens or slide out...
  7. Petition to open the Meijer Howard (Green Bay) EA site!

    Another update from Plugshare--the utility (WPS) has energized the site and it's all in EA hands now. Fingers crossed for an expedient response from EA (haha).
  8. Rivian Cameo Appearance In NYT Bestseller

    I'm guessing that R1Ts are not that uncommon on Ventura Boulevard nowadays. I think Alan Ruck was within a mile of Ventura when he crashed his R1T :CWL:
  9. Christmas mode update?

    Snowflakes, sleigh bells, sleds, snow people and blue lights are fairly inoffensive.
  10. CarPlay & Android Auto Smart Dash Screen has arrived! New from EVSportline.com

    Awesome! I hope you'll eventually offer your dash bracket with a ball mount that can be used with 3rd party phone cradles and devices. I don't think there are any other brackets like yours elsewhere.
  11. Six wishes for Rivian to enhance my R1S ownership experience

    Me too. Either way, I don't think we'll see these features until there's a subscription model.
  12. CarPlay & Android Auto Smart Dash Screen has arrived! New from EVSportline.com

    I don't know if the cord provided by EVsportline is thicker or shorter than the one I'm using, so you may be able to get by with their solution ?‍♂️
  13. CarPlay & Android Auto Smart Dash Screen has arrived! New from EVSportline.com

    I think you can see a bit of cord on the left-facing side of the dash when the door is open, but nothing is visible from the driver or passenger seats.
  14. Six wishes for Rivian to enhance my R1S ownership experience

    #3--non-standard colors are not allowed by NHTSA when the vehicle is in motion. It would be cool to have the ability to change colors when parked though. #4--this will likely come only after Rivian introduces a paid data plan and starts to monetize their infotainment.
  15. CarPlay & Android Auto Smart Dash Screen has arrived! New from EVSportline.com

    There's no need to remove the screen. You should be able to gently lift the top part of the dash with a trim tool and slip the wire underneath if the it's thin enough. You can then run it across the left of the dash and route it around the driver's side door trim. I know for a fact that the...
  16. Apparently my EV9 preorder is coming next week…

    It's also 1.5 times better than an EV6.
  17. EV Ranges….

    I would recommend against clicking through to the DailyMail page since they specialize in anti-EV articles and general misinformation. Best to go to the source article at: https://www.consumerreports.org/cars/hybrids-evs/real-world-ev-range-tests-models-that-beat-epa-estimates-a1103288135/
  18. 3D printer recommendations?

    I have the Bambu Labs X1 Carbon and it's easier to use than my laser printer. It's pretty much ready to print right out of the box and handles all of the calibration and bed leveling automatically. I highly recommend it.
  19. Rivian Spare - Screenshot of Configuration showing $450 Price?

    Don't go through your guide. Call the 855-RIVIAN5 number listed on the spare tire kit to order it. Tell them you are pre-Mar 1st and they will confirm the date of your order and honor the $450 price.
