  1. Yakima EXO Hitch Hauler installed for ski season

    the all-in total including mounting, TPM sensors, lug nuts, balancing, and freight (rims had to be shipped in from Salt Lake) was $3765. I'm pretty sure that comes in less than the Rivian OEM rims and AT tires, and these are (reportedly) far better in the snow.
  2. Yakima EXO Hitch Hauler installed for ski season

    Yes exactly. I plan to put some adhesive rubber pads on the Topmount to prevent scratches from accidental opening.
  3. Yakima EXO Hitch Hauler installed for ski season

    For the Yakima EXO gearbox, the mount is specific for the EXO hitchmount, so it woudn't work on the R1T cross bars. But there are other Yakima gearboxes/rocketboxes (as well as other brands) that should work for over the bed.
  4. Yakima EXO Hitch Hauler installed for ski season

    Yeah, that was rather painful....especially when you add in the iKamper. I justified it to the wife (and more so to myself) by saying that hey, it's still cheaper than an Airstream.
  5. Yakima EXO Hitch Hauler installed for ski season

    They are Discoverer Snow Claws on XD851 Monster III rims. We haven't had too much deep snow yet in the West to play in, but they've done great on the snowpacked roads and slushy stuff that I've put them through thus far. Hoping for a decent storm this weekend, so I might finally get to see how...

  7. Custom Chilewich Mats have launched!

    These look amazing and I’m looking forward to browsing through all of the color and pattern options. One limitation of the factory mats is that they are flat, with no lip or containment around the edges, so water and debris just runs or rolls right off the mat and onto the carpet around the...
  8. R1S middle row seat removal easier than expected and wow what a difference.

    Very nice! Thanks for posting! I anticipate we would need our second row more often than would make this feasible for us, but it does now make me wonder about removing the third row of seats for more storage. We just did our first winter camping trip and had plenty of room even with both...
  9. Matte wrap gang! Let's see photos of your matte Rivian R1T & R1S

    Thanks for posting the Glacier White! Been thinking about this and yours is the first white one I've seen. L00ks fantastic!!
  10. Cooking Xmas Dinner While Driving UPDATED

    Nicely done. Seriously! I'm so motivated by this i'm gonna try to deep fry a turkey in the back of my R1S while driving Hwy 55 through the mountains.
  11. Yakima EXO Hitch Hauler installed for ski season

    Nah, but you might still be a lil bit drunk… I thought my skis would hang way over but surprisingly they don’t. The base of the Riv is actually pretty wide. I’m 6’3” and usually ski 175s and they don’t hang over at all. Sadly, Viv is still ground-bound.
  12. Yakima EXO Hitch Hauler installed for ski season

    Yeah good question. You could certainly swap them, but if the box is on the bottom, you can’t open the lid very far unless you swing the Topshelf around. That’s not too difficult, but it’s additional steps when I just want to grab my boots and gear and go. I’m only driving about a mile to the...
  13. Launch Green R1S Stealth PPF Pics

    Super sharp, love it! I also wondered about the question from mkhuffman about whether are any specific considerations for cleaning, automated carwashes with spray wax, etc. Also, anyone ever seen a stealth PPF on a white vehicle? I'm considering it just because it seems like it would be...
  14. Software Update 2023.50 -- Scheduled battery preconditioning & other useful improvements!

    Nice updates, thanks Rivian! (could you also add the ability to turn on the rear window/mirror defroster remotely in a future update?? Thx!)
  15. Well, I just bought a 3rd Rivian

    Very nice. Soak up some of that AZ sun to charge all them beasts! Hey, I guess it's cheaper than therapy... (oh, wait...)
  16. Yakima EXO Hitch Hauler installed for ski season

    Ha! I just ordered one of these last night! Thanks for validating my suspicion that this would help!
  17. Yakima EXO Hitch Hauler installed for ski season

    Having recently ditched my ICE F150 long bed with camper shell, I've been wondering how I'm going to deal with schlepping all of my ski gear back and forth from the hill this season. Didn't really want to put wet gear and boots in my new vehicle, nor was I excited about using a rooftop box due...
  18. Turning on Heated Mirrors ?

    Agree fully! What’s the benefit of having your front windshield clear if you still have to scrape the rear window and try to defog the mirrors? Perhaps this will be part of the 2023.50 update that is rumored to be coming soon with some more preconditioning options. ?
  19. TWRAPS Mud Guards Installed on R1S Pics

    Thanks for the detailed explanation behind this. FWIW, I would also be interested in a more integrated and molded option down the road when it makes sense for you to make that leap. In the meantime, I just purchased the current TWRAPS jumbo mud flaps, so thanks!
