  1. Unacceptable Heater Performance

    I've had my equal share of frustrations with lukewarm temperatures and actually had a service visit scheduled for the 17th which I cancelled after this last update. For me, just a few minutes with it set to Auto at 74 and it seems to finally act like it should. I was setting to HI before and...
  2. Tesla revises range estimates

    I think the challenge is range really only matters when you go on a road trip unless you are super focused on mi/kWh on every little errand. For most Americans that is likely <5% of their annual driving (total WAG). On top of that, the poor range estimates tend to impact those in colder...
  3. Tesla revises range estimates

    ? ? ? You sir, have not been on this forum long enough.
  4. Tesla revises range estimates

    What you want is newer battery tech that allows for charging to 100% without any negative impact on the cells. I believe this is coming, but I don't follow it all that closely. No thought needed when charging, no additional cost and weight in the vehicle for such a large buffer. Otherwise you...
  5. Tesla revises range estimates

    There is no chance any manufacturer is going to willingly reduce the max range they can market to be more realistic. Whether in regards to battery degradation, weather, all highway driving, etc. Would be nice, but there are way too many variables and I don't see anyone reducing their...
  6. Random questions regarding reversing and heat

    I'm going to be testing with my anemometer to get air flow as well as temperature. Hopefully get some good data to show how little heat is actually coming out. Would be interesting to pass around and have a few other owners that are happy with their performance do the same tests and see where...
  7. Random questions regarding reversing and heat

    I believe the reverse should be better with the next update! https://www.rivianforums.com/forum/threads/software-update-2023-50-scheduled-battery-preconditioning-other-useful-improvements.22471/ Can't help you with the feet vents as I rarely have mine on. I have heat issues in general where I...

  9. Our MAX PACK R1T's decent first winter trip across WI

    You are welcome to come sit in my car and try it out to prove me wrong (you won’t) 12k miles like this, and I’m not the only one that is having this issue as shown in the threads that I referenced and many others with a quick search. learned to deal with it, just a poor implementation that I...
  10. Our MAX PACK R1T's decent first winter trip across WI

    Very interesting thanks for sharing @ridgetopview It's never changed for me. It was outside for ~36hrs in 20 degree weather and it still had to be 72 to give heat. I'm beginning to wonder if there is something wrong with the sensor for mine because I can set it to 80 degrees and auto, I will...
  11. Our MAX PACK R1T's decent first winter trip across WI

    I still don't understand how you are not receiving cold air blowing through the vents when it is set at 69 degrees (regardless of preheating, using auto, or setting fan manually). There are many threads on the HVAC system and that somewhere between 71-73 is the point where people have to set to...
  12. Our MAX PACK R1T's decent first winter trip across WI

    But how? 69 degrees will blow AC when on auto unless I'm missing something? I have to set to 72 or above to get it to switch to heat. Glad to hear the trip went well!
  13. 22" Winter Tire Options?

    I was pretty close to getting the X-Ice for my 22's but ended up getting some 20's and installing 275/60/20 X-Ice(My Experience) since I have ~7/32" on my 22's with 11,250 miles Can you elaborate on the ride change as you are still on the 22's? Ride is night and day difference for me but I...

  15. Ram 2363 Wheels + Snow Tire (Michelin X-Ice Snow SUV) Purchase and Install Experience

    Highly recommend the X-Ice to others as well! Rides like butter compared to the 22's. @CardiacR1S how is the ride vs your 21's? For those that want a more OEM look for the wheel and confidence in the load rating and/or don't want hubcentric rings (both of which have been stated as concerns by...
  16. 20" MSW Wheel w/ Michelin X-ICE Installation Experience

    I've contemplated the Badlands jack as well as their Pittsburgh since it's significantly cheaper and I don't need the "offroad" capability. I kept getting hung up on the no jack stand part or having to have a lot more tools so this was my cheapo method that I felt was also safest and overall I'm...
  17. 20" MSW Wheel w/ Michelin X-ICE Installation Experience

    Recently purchased the MSW Type 52 wheel from Tirerack with Michelin X-ICE 275/60/20 tires (same tire size as the 22's). I wanted to show some pictures of the setup but also share my installation experience as there are quite a few threads on what jack is the right one. Installation was a bit...
  18. Please Tesla, Rivian give us the conventional door handle

    Maybe I'm one of the few, but the door handles on our R1S have been perfect and I love the way it works. I do have concerns about longevity and when it inevitably has mechanical/electrical problems or gets iced over.
  19. Headlight Out

    Literally just took a service call on an issue that 9 times out of 10 is a blown fuse. Asked the customer to check the fuse. They say hang on and there is some noise which I assumed was opening the fuse box, then they say it is good and not blown. We move on to more troubleshooting and a few...
  20. Mysterious Tire Pressure Loss

    Odd having all 4 do that. I have had one that is consistent with all the other tires at 50 for 4-5 days, then one day it is at 44 and the rest are still at 50. Fill back up to 50 and no change for another 4-5 days then bam, back to 44.
