Thanks for the follow up! Makes me like your videos even more!

I am guessing the reason the side sensors turn off when in trailer mode is for safety reasons. A pretty logical, common sense reason at that. In normal driving, when the sensor does not detect anything, the driver assumes there is nothing there and it is safe to switch lanes or turn. The...

Yeah, I think it's safe to say that Rivian may be lacking when it comes to features like these. Hopefully OTA updates are used to add features like these, but I wouldn't count on it to happen in the next few months/years.

It is paper thin. I would not feel comfortable in this during a decent hail storm.

I'm especially concerned about this with how thin and fragile the pano glass seems to be. It is so thin that it feels like plastic to the touch.

"My notable question mark was again, the fact that the Rivian's roof sounds more like a plastic than a glass. Maybe it is glass and just sounds that way because it's such a big single piece? But, it has the echo of a plastic material rather than the solid thunk you get when knocking on glass...

I originally had a MAX pack, but switched to large pack. I was assigned a guide a few weeks ago and asked about the MAX pack. The guide confirmed that they are still on schedule to deliver max pack pre-orders first half of 2023. I took that to mean that they would START delivering them in June...

That's the exact reason for OP sharing this video. To bring awareness for those of us that haven't had first-hand experience with lane assist or Driver+. Thank you OP!

The other other problem is the weight of the R1T!

Cool. That doesn't make the issues they experienced not true.

Did you watch the video? Sure, they are annoying humans (in some people's opinion), but that doesn't invalidate their experience. They took a simple weekend trip and had issues. And recorded and shared those issues. They made it very clear that SOME not all of the blame falls on Rivian. And...

Thanks for sharing and taking notes! I found these bullet points quite interesting. Reiterated that the goal is to have overall market share of 10% of the entire new car market, which is expected to be selling only electric cars by the end of the decade. R2 vehicles will be priced from $40k to...

Or if you are at work and park close enough to your office....I wouldn't want my truck constantly unlocking and locking and also don't want to put it in Home mode and leave it unlocked. I'm very surprised that it doesn't seem to have the capability of reading proximity. That's the only ideal...

During my test drive I noticed the rough wood texture as well. It is definitely rough and doesn't seem to have any finish protective coat on it. It also is hard to even notice that it is real wood unless you get very close and touch it. My initial thought was that using real wood was almost...

I hated it during my test drive. Everyone says you get used to it. But I am definitely going to miss lifting my foot off the gas and coasting down to a slower speed or smooth stop. That is impossible with OPD and Regen...you take your foot off the "gas", and it jerks very quickly to a stop. With...

I just don't get why they felt it necessary to make it a screen. I would have preferred physical buttons (like pushing the light) for the lights and fan speed.

If they just did 10% of this work, it might look pretty sweet.

I think you're missing the point. It most obviously was intentional by Rivian. I am aware of RJ's comments regarding it. This is exactly why it's been a hot topic. The intention does make sense, there is no question about that. The point is however, that even though it makes sense and was...

Two complaints to note about the R1T that we have known for a while: 1) The power tonneau cover is a big miss by Rivian. It broke during their testing because of sand. 2) The main interior complaint by Motor Trend was the lack of physical buttons/knobs and that everything uses the digital...

I get they are not comparable vehicles in how they drive or perform, but they are both the only EV trucks on the market. I think it's pretty naive to think that people won't cross shop them. Especially because the timing of delivery between the two may be very different and GMC is not a start up...
