  1. Angle-based steering now working on Comma for Gen 1 Rivians!

    Sounds exciting. I’m vaguely interested in picking up a Comma for my rig but the learning curve is the main thing keeping me away. Who the **** is Uncle Tony and what does his fork have to do with anything? Is he related to Lukas? And what about all these pilots and harnesses? I jest but it is...
  2. Rivian Service policy - no alternative transportation unless vehicle kept for 48 hrs

    I get what you're saying but sadly don't think that's going to happen. Rivian needs to ship R2s in large volumes and the Quads will never sell enough to warrant revamping the entire service experience to be on par with true luxury brands. They're doing their best but it's going to be hard to...
  3. Rivian Service policy - no alternative transportation unless vehicle kept for 48 hrs

    They're starting to tighten the belt but they haven't changed the service policies on us. They're just starting to enforce them more stringently, in some cases. And that doesn't bother me at all as a customer or supporter because they should be doing that, especially with R2 just around the...
  4. Rivian dropped my truck!

    Lmao. The optics are bad for you, and all of your friends you’ve enlisted to spam this garbage all over the internet. You are delusional. You asked for a $90k truck to replace a $40k truck and are kicking and screaming all over the internet because you didn’t get your way. I feel bad for any...
  5. New Rivian service centers coming to Colorado (Centennial and Louisville)

    4/17 sounds feasible. Snapped a quick photo on my drive home today and they’re definitely getting ready! First time I’ve seen any vehicles there. Looked like all the lifts inside are installed.
  6. Bad Service Center Incident

    Ahh I see now. The bolded text and caps letters have changed my mind. Your "friend" deserves TWO NEW trucks. One for him and one for you. Did the service rep do a pinky promise when he offered the new truck? If so, that's really messed up and he should also get an ALSO e-bike!
  7. Long term owners with Ocean Coast interiors: How is it holding up?

    How would you know which areas are "low touch" if you're renting out your vehicle on Turo?
  8. Rivian dropped my truck!

    I would almost guarantee you that they did offer that to OP but we will never get that detail from them. Just another hit and run. Yawn.
  9. Bad Service Center Incident

    Fair. I saw 2023 so assumed quad and wasn’t going to spend anymore time researching this garbage. So he was looking for an $80k replacement to what was probably a $40k used truck.
  10. Rivian Service policy - no alternative transportation unless vehicle kept for 48 hrs

    So they took care of you and you’re still complaining? In the future, you can probably get the same result just by being friendly with the service reps instead of immediately asking for the legal team.
  11. Rivian Service policy - no alternative transportation unless vehicle kept for 48 hrs

    Sure - I happily do all those things because my truck is far and away the best vehicle I've ever owned (or driven) and I basically stole it with the preorder pricing. I don't feel any sort of entitlement as an early adopter but it sure seems like you do given that you went straight to legal over...
  12. Bad Service Center Incident

    Bummer that the service rep initially offered a new vehicle and they backtracked on that, but sounds like the owner had a 2023 quad motor that was probably worth about $50k (give or take based on mileage) and is upset he's not getting a brand new $120k quad motor as replacement. Wishful thinking...
  13. Rivian Service policy - no alternative transportation unless vehicle kept for 48 hrs

    Are you saying that the policy they shared is different than at the time of your purchase? I don't think it is. Also disagree that early adopters provide more value than later adopters. If anything, it's the reverse...we (early adopters) received a 15% discount. They're still giving loaners as a...
  14. R1 Strut Damper Assembly - Teardown Video

    Hope you picked up an extended warranty! Do you recall the total cost to replace?
  15. Any news on a new OTA software update?

    Lol. Software is lightyears ahead of any manufacturer not named Tesla and IMO has the best UX. Just because it’s missing one basic feature (that is coming) doesn’t mean the software is lacking.
  16. Any news on a new OTA software update?

    Seems like you were fine buying a 100k vehicle without basic things twice over :)
  17. WTB Gen 1 keyfob

    If storing your fob in the trailer hitch I’d definitely recommend taking out the battery and keeping it separate. At least my G1 fob is dead every few months I pull it out to use it just for “fun”
  18. End of year two reliability issues.

    I had what sounds like a similar BIB issue early on but it was repaired and no other problems since. No clue on the beeping. Only time I've heard that is when trying to drive with my gear tunnel door open so it's been appreciated.
  19. Rivian Service policy - no alternative transportation unless vehicle kept for 48 hrs

    In the past when I've received Uber credits it has been for $300. Surely a 1 or 2 day rental costs much less than that. It's unfortunate that the service tech would send a message that makes it seem like they'll leave you stranded but communication has never been Rivian's strong suit. They will...
  20. Rivian Service policy - no alternative transportation unless vehicle kept for 48 hrs

    I can understand why they don’t want their SC managers fielding random calls from customers with service appointments weeks away. Just wait until they contact you 48 hours before your appointment and nicely explain to them that it’s important for you to have a loaner or rental car to be able to...
