I believe the M+S tires on a dual motor R1 are rated as being good to go without needing chains. The fact that you've got a dual motor plays in your favor - better than tri or quad when in slick conditions as you don't need a computer to try to simulate a limited-slip differential. OTOH, the...

Loving these updates! It's great to see what you're able to do with it in real-world testing! Please keep it coming!

This is exactly why I’ve got a complete set of jack pucks plus one xl puck!

I found this on the JackPucks site: https://jackpucks.com/products/no-1-selling-rivian-magnetic-jack-pucks-for-rivian-r1t-r1s-to-change-or-rotate-tires?country=US&currency=USD&gQT=1&variant=45322055516474 Q: Why do you recommend the Torin Big Red 10T Bottle Jack? Can’t I use something else...

Dang, I'm glad you posted this! I bought the 12-ton jack and boy is it the wrong size. Wasn't looking carefully enough, and now I've got an Amazon return to do. What size Big Red bottle jack is the recommended one for an R1T?

I think the junkyard approach sounds the most promising. If they'll pull it for you and ship it to you then you're done, and the expense may outweigh the hassle of going through a service center for this. Good luck!

I am entitled to my opinion, and as you're a reader here, so are you! You're welcome. :p Also, did you not see the ;) I included? Try not to take yourself or others too seriously. You'll only upset yourself!

The concept is cool, but the cost is insane. This would cost more than my truck! I use my R1T nearly every day for all sorts of things. I would use this a few times per year max. As cool as this is - and it's really cool! - I just can't see dropping 100K+ on a trailer like this. Then again...

I'll echo what others have said about the value of having a truck in your garage. I went for a while without a truck and my only options were SUVs - it's just too limiting. The Ionic does have the virtue of being lower cost, and may be more reliable - I wouldn't know, I'm another one of the...

Thanks for the tip! I've not needed this yet but will in a couple 1000 miles and plan to do the same. Why take any chances? Install the pucks and then watch them to be sure they're lifting it correctly.

Her house is definitely not new construction. Zillow says it was built in 1978. Both Google and Apple Maps can easily find it, but if you try any method (Alexa or typing it in manually) for Rivian's nav, well, you'll just get sent on a multi-state wild goose chase.

Hear here? ;) Agree with others. Tonneau closed for practical reasons.

Some things are better left unsaid ;)

The Spotify fix would be nice - I hope we see that one soon. What I think is more important would be a navigation fix. With internet access, either via C+ or via phone hotspot, we should be able to say "Alexa, navigate to XYZ" and it should just work. Maybe this will come with the Spotify fix...

I'm personally glad there are those out there warped enough to say they like this. ;) Seriously, though. I think it's great we have the options we do, and I applaud Rivian for making the effort to keep things fresh with holiday treats in our updates. This one may not be for me, but if it's for...

I'm glad to hear that I'm not the only one! I agree with @Volfan615, this one may be a good candidate for next Halloween - though I don't see myself using it even then. Of course, we now have multiple good options with the owl and mountain bluebird. I personally liked the crow last year, too...

I left on a trip shortly before the latest update, so the fun winter holiday stuff was all waiting for me when I got home on the 30th. Naturally, I wanted to try out the new lock sound... Is it just me, or does the "festive" jingle door lock sound like it belongs on the set of a horror movie...

Did you save much $$ with this, or was it more for the pure joy of doing it? Either (or both) are great reasons - just curious.

I know we'll never see a FSD-like capability on our G1 vehicles, but I thought that they did want to have this as an eventual capability in G2. If that's so, then I think a heater for the radar sensor would be not just a nice-to-have feature, but a must-have. It's odd that some G2 owners are...

Good point about the yellow vehicles! Yeah, that does kinda date it. I wonder how much has changed since then. Surely somethings have changed, but maybe not the bigger aspects for how the body comes together, etc.
