  1. Frequent charging resume and stop after reaching % target

    If you are losing 2.3kw a day then there is something wrong with it, usually it is due to the 12v battery not able to hold a charge long enough thus keeping the truck awake and draining the HV battery trying to keep the 12v charged. Stick a trickle charger on the 12v and see if the excess drain...
  2. Frequent charging resume and stop after reaching % target

    Most likely it is because your battery is draining below the level set in the schedule so it is topping up. You need to figure out why the battery is draining, like preconditioning the cabin, gear guard or PAAk too close to the truck causing it to wake up too often or 12v on its death bed.
  3. Symphonic Carbon Fiber Roof for Rivian R1T -- by EV Smart Truck

    Was $1800 for my T 2 years ago.
  4. Clunk / multiple rebound from rear suspension, service center says it feels "normal"

    Doesn't make much sense unless both dampers were bad and they only replaced one, is the noise still only coming from the left side?
  5. Clunk / multiple rebound from rear suspension, service center says it feels "normal"

    Maybe make a video of what you are trying to describe. Kind of hard to diagnose something like that on the internet based on description especially if it is not consistent. Might help your service center narrow down your concern if you show them a video with the noise you are referring to. In...
  6. R2 rear wiper in action -- potential issues or FUD?

    I agree that design is going to be a problem, not just with snow and ice but with all the tree debris also. For people that live near pine trees it's just going to have to be a constant battle to keep it clean. I keep a mini blower in the T just for clearing out the tonneau cover before...
  7. What’s Something You Didn’t Think You’d Care About… But Now Do?

    12v Battery health and vampire drain 😢 Never even considered the 12v would be the Achilles heel. Other than that probably PAAK as already mentioned and frunk but next time one where the whole front end opens like Ford and GM
  8. Improved phantom / standby battery drain after new update

    Warmer weather will play a big role in phantom drain as the 12v won't need to be cycled as often. We see these type of threads every spring.
  9. Bosch working on Level 3 driving

    huh? There really are only 2 old school US automakers, Stellantis doesn't count, both of those make EV's and one of them makes more EV models than any other brand and planning to release an L3 Escalade next year. Might want to update your bias a bit.
  10. Symphonic Carbon Fiber Roof for Rivian R1T -- by EV Smart Truck

    If this was available a couple years ago when my glass broke might have considered it but being pricier than the glass maybe not.
  11. Closing the tailgate - heavy & cumbersome

    I just hate the cheap hollow sound it makes when closing, kind of embarrassing to close in front of others.
  12. Rivian V2H Technical First Look (Patent)

    That's great to hear I hope they all actually play well with each other and follow the standard.
  13. Car & Driver - We Figured Out How to Trick a Rivian R1T into Carolina Squatting

    So dumb I thought they would actually mention a hack like permanently unhooking the ride height sensors from the control arms and setting the height that way.
  14. Rivian V2H Technical First Look (Patent)

    Right now V2H is a risky investment as it ties you into specific manufacturers and not cheap to swap out every time you trade in a vehicle, best to wait it out until there is a universal standard and companies stand behind their product regardless of which brand of interconnecting products are used.
  15. Don’t buy a Rivian and why?

    I get your frustration but there is a reason why they only have one way to communicate with them and that is because communications costs a lot, not nothing. I don't like their method of communications either but hasn't really hindered me from communicating with them when I need to, I find it...
  16. Random Encounter

    Depends where you are, a couple weeks ago in Boston there were 4 of us at the same intersection 1 parked and 3 moving. Unfortunately the S driver didn't wave.
  17. It's witchcraft, I tells ya!

    Been that way for ages with Nissans dumbest thing in the world, does the same with temp readings, compass and maintenance warnings on ICE cars too the two systems have overlapping features but do not talk to each other. But yes not having the odometer or clock in the driver display is also...
  18. Why is service still so inept?

    I'd say it's a training/experience issue, lot of young people at the service centers not sure if it's an intentional hiring practice, the pay structure or just experienced techs not wanting to take a chance with startups or EV's in general. Probably a mix of all of that.
  19. Scout delayed again to 2028/2030 according to reports

    The overheating issues were kind of predictable given where they are planning to place the engine. Rumor was the EREV was just an after thought and not tested prior to reveal then the reservations locked them in forcing them to pivot away from the BEV. Hopefully with the delays they are...
