  1. 2024.35.00 Update Notes (Gen 1)

    I'm thinking Tidal, at this point, is effectively end-of-support. Annoying, as it's not even fully baked to begin with.
  2. Tip: Tire replacements via Costco (will order directly from tire manufacturer)

    Costco will generally do this for the brands they carry (I think they only carry BFG/Michelin/Bridgestone/Firestone).
  3. R1T awarded the 2024 IIHS Top Safety+ Rating ? Only Pickup Truck to earn this award!

    All pickups are giant Turd Ferguson when it comes to safety...I'd argue it's a pretty low bar for Rivian.
  4. 2024 R1S - The Suburban Mom Review

    I agree with all of your sentiments, especially as a fellow Forest Green R1S owner. While ours also spends 90% of its life pounding pavement to school and Costco, the other 10% is to appeal to dad who wants to thrash it as hard as possible on off-road trails. We, therefore, opted for the...
  5. Munro: Gen 2 R1S Undercarriage. Good improvements and simplifications

    This is likely the first of a series of videos...this one only covering the externally visible underbody bits (suspension, armor, etc...with some initial cutouts to see motor cradle). Front cradle has been heavily simplified from a bunch of extrusions+welding to a largely single casting...
  6. Problems with Dynamic Glass Roof R1S?

    Meanwhile, I completely blocked out our glass roof because it's hot AF this summer in Colorado, and I'd prefer my kids nap on long drives without the solar system's brightest flashlight throwing all of it's photons at their faces.
  7. So many legacy auto manufacturers walking back plans to electrify. Good or bad for Rivian?

    Are you my twin? We had an XC90 T8, then Model 3, and now the R1S to complement the Tesla (I prefer the Rivian over the Tesla though). I agree with everything...the pitiful range and mpg bump vs the complexity was not worth it. I didn't even plug in most nights because "oh no...I have to pay for...
  8. Gear Guard streaming coming Q3 2024

    Sounds like I might be in the minority, but I personally love the hotspot feature. I have the fortune to be able to do my job from anywhere with an internet connection, so I have frequently cranked out a few emails or screenshares while waiting for my kid's bus, or my wife can stream from her...
  9. How bad can this be?

    Yikes. @Discount Tire has historically been very good about proper procedure. Someone really effed up here, and I think they should fix it without question.
  10. Commuting Concerns on a Packed Ferry Boat

    That new upcoming cast feature might be more beneficial to you than the rest of us...
  11. What is this?

    Fuel filler cap. Obviously.
  12. Rivian R1S Camper Kit / Camp Kitchen System by Fruble

    What's the height in comparison with the lower-half tailgate flipped up? Also, is it still easy to get to the plugs and the air compressor?
  13. Atomic Wheels' Rims & Tire Packages Available for Sale

    How much does an OEM 20" wheel weigh (looks like these Atomics are 27 lbs)
  14. R1S was #4 best selling EV in Q1 2024! Let’s gooo!

    The R1S is also much more palatable to a wider audience than the R1T. The R1S checks the box for both the off-roader types (like myself), but also is a great vehicle for soccer mom types (like my wife) who want a classy looking vehicle that has 3 rows and can shuttle kids and their shit around...
  15. Prinsu Pro Roof Rack on R1S - install photos & review

    We had a Prinsu rack on our Land Cruiser, and it was awesome. Glad to see it come to the R1S...now how to convince my wife....
  16. How do you handle texts in your R1?

    Androids (at least our Pixels) have equivalent functionality (both driving/focus modes and a very good talk-to-text function)
  17. Rivian tops estimates with Q1 deliveries of 13,588 [⚠️ ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS]

    Ironic you mention Tesla's 25k cars today...as those appear to be dead now. https://www.theverge.com/2024/4/5/24122064/tesla-cancel-affordable-electric-vehicle-model-2-china
