When the smoke clears and we are authorized to use the Tesla Supercharger System, exactly what adapters will be necessary? I realize that the one that will be provided by Rivian will afford us access to the Tesla SC System. Will this adapter work with NACS Level 2 chargers, or will a separate...

I am now wondering if the newly installed RANs will have the NACS outlets. Also, will the older RANs be retrofitted with NACS outlets? Brian

With all the hype of the R2, R3, and R3X, the R1 seems to have faded into the background. I have also been noticing that the R1 dual motor seems to be the more desirable version of the R1. I am now beginning to wonder if quad motor Rivians will soon pass into history. Brian

Can a Rivian be used a toad to be towed behind a motorhome? Brian

We have had Opal (our R1T) for nine months. We have been charging her at home on a Rivian wall charger. Our routine is to let her go to about 20% state of charge and charge her up to 70%. This has worked well for our use routine. Should we continue our charging regimen as is or would it be...

Is there any way to identify roads where Driver + can be used? Brian

As 2024 is on the immediate horizon, is there any new information or speculation on access to the Tesla Superchsager system? We were told that Rivian will supply us with adapters to make our R1's NACS capable. I am hoping that this adapter will have a pig tail to make using a Tesla Supercharger...

It was a little chilly last night and attempted to use Opal's steering wheel heater. When I pressed the button, the light would come on for just a second and go back off. I could not get it to remain on. I tried it both before and after I got Opal rolling. The seat heaters were on and working...

When we recently got the new data screen with tire pressures, we started monitoring tire pressure on a daily basis. The pressures in al four tires were 48 and 49 psi. About two days ago a tire pressure warning appeared on the driver screen. I checked for a low tire and found that all four tires...

We run Opal's fog lights (front and rear) at all times while driving. We feel that this makes her better seen, day or night. We have noticed that sometimes when we make a short stop, the fog lights are still activated when we restart the vehicle. At other times they have to be reactivated. We...

We have an issue with the smartphone app on SuEllyn's Android phone. There is a small number 1 that appears on the screen avatar (see picture). We thought it was signaling some kind of message, but we can't find anything. This does not appear on my app screen. Does anyone know what this is...

Does anyone have any idea when Rivian plans a proper update to replace the ill-fated .42 debacle. In my experience with Rivian updates, this is the first time the update process has turned into a goat rope. Up until now, we have always taken the update as soon as it was offered. Fortunately...

What is the best tire rotation interval for our R1T? Our driving is all local, no highway, always in all purpose mode. Brian

We have installed a set of window vent shades from AVS. The fit is perfect and they look OEM. Here's a shot of Opal (our R1T) sporting her new upgrade. Brian

We decided to try the NiLight hitch receiver step on the back of Opal (our R1T). It is very nicely made and is quite a bit lighter that the cast iron step that we had been using. Showing pictures of both the new one and the old one. Brian

Has anyone heard or any new Service Centers proposed or coming on line in the future? There are still several sizeable geographic gaps in the Rivian service capabilities. Brian

We Have purchased one of the 21" spares that EV Sportline had a few weeks ago. I am now attempting to install it and have encountered a problem. I am trying to remove the stupid blocker plastic pieces that Rivian installed in the spare tire area on my R1T. I put a socket on the bolt holding the...

After downloading the .30 update, I was able to set up proximity garage door opening for my main three garage doors. As I pull in the driveway the system recognizes where it is and offers me a choice of which door to open. By scrolling on the little wheel on the right side of the steering wheel...

We renewed our Florida vehicle registrations yesterday. We were expecting a big cost for the Rivian registration as we had heard that Florida was implementing a $250 upcharge for EV's to offset the loss of fuel tax. As it turned out, the R1T's tag was $260 for a two year registration. $130 per...

We have had our Rivian Wall Charger installed for several months now. Yesterday we had some sort of glitch that required the charger to be repaired with SuEllyn's phone. We followed the instructions on her phone and it is now paired and working again. That being the case, I thought that it...
