Haha same here I believe he’s a designer that goes way back and I think one of his videos showed him in one of the early company photos with RJ and other “originals”. He definitely makes great content with a professional level of production (as is not surprising if he’s a designer). Two of his...
We just recently did a day trip from Kennedy Meadows to Cerro Gordo to Alabama Hills and back to KM via the (new?) 350kw EA station at the Coso Junction rest stop that’s 17mi South of Olancha. I actually wonder if that station will cause this Olancha CA RAN station to be de-prioritized.
Has anyone mentioned that 2-3 cases where the Rivian finally moved appeared to be from the roller tires sliding to the roller edge and catching traction on that edge? If this is actually what happened, it highlights the problem even more as it would mean it wasn’t *only* the traction wheel...
What’s the latest on Rivian API capabilities?
With new features to set charging schedule and amperage in the vehicle/app, I’d love to get to a point where I use my home’s SolarEdge API to read production and then drive Rivian charging characteristics so that I’m only charging below a certain...
I recently saw and chose a new 2023 LE R1T in the shop that has VIN 239xx. It’s a current build with all that entails. It does NOT have the powered tonneau cover and the base price is reduced accordingly. LE and Adventure are super similar other than the Launch Green paint option and the...
I believe it’s true that after a certain VIN the 12v wires are no longer there. My understanding…
Original: Fully wired 12v plug
Next: No 12v plug, but has harness
Next, next: No 12v plug, but has wires
Latest/current: No nothing…
But you had the under-dash 12v, right? My guide says my 239xx VIN is expected to only have the gear tunnel 12v, which is the least useful location to me! :/
Back to the original timing question, I’ve been quoted 6-8 weeks. I mentioned my first R1T had a similar quote and came in 4 weeks (Sep...
I recently spoke with my guide and he confirmed my pending 2023 LE will not have the frunk nor under-dash 12v. I asked if Rivian had any guidance for adding power to either of those locations and he said no (that’s what I expected but figured I’d ask).
I think I remember the Shop listing saying manual compatible or whatever. I hope so! I’m expecting the tracks and would get their manual cover for $800, which was on my config. I won’t pay $1,800. Have they delivered an R1T without the tracks???
My pending LE from the Shop is paired with Ocean Coast, which I think will be awesome. The Shop listing says no cover and it’s a 239XX VIN so I’m not expecting the power tonneau, frunk 12v, under-dash 12v, nor Meridian sound. It’s not a trivial decision, but adds the RUS over my initial build...
I was just offered $78,500 for my R1T, which is $900 more than my purchase price back in Sep 22. I thought that was pretty good from Rivian. My config is in my sig. Thoughts?
Also, I wonder if there’s some sort of slick bracket stand thingie that could be made to turn the manual cover four pieces into a picnic table and benches.
For those that had the $800 manual cover option configured who later accepted an R1T Shop vehicle, is Rivian somehow allowing the manual cover to be added for $800?
See thread below, but for *current* LEs in the R1 Shop, I’m expecting LE to mean some special small badges and the big things are the free Launch Green paint option (which I wanted) and the free wheel/tire upgrade (which I have now and like)...
+1 in similar boat following through on my second 2021 pre-order, which was still open for a max pack. I came across an R1 Shop Launch Edition that I really liked more than my current R1T and pulled the trigger. Launch Green with Ocean Coast, 20” ATs, and the RUS. ??
I’m super curious what a...
