  1. R2 Early Production Vehicle Sneak Peak on CNBC [Ride Along Video w/ RJ Scaringe]

    Thanks for the clarification, my bad.
  2. What Would Make You Dump Your R1 for an R2

  3. R2 Early Production Vehicle Sneak Peak on CNBC [Ride Along Video w/ RJ Scaringe]

    Saw on one of these that under-trunk storage compartment is gone. Any suggestions on how to store a full size spare on an R2? Probably going to have to be a swing-away mount on the back?
  4. Rivian headlights at night in snowstorm = zero visibility

    EV Sportline and other Rivian specific sellers have good installation videos. You or the shop can use those to figure out the install and wiring situation even if you don't use their products. It would be cheaper to buy lights and wires yourself. The only question mark for a shop is probably how...
  5. Proximity locking is annoying

    That's the fun thing about Rivian proximity lock, you get different results every time.
  6. The Rivian R2 Reviews are Here!!! 656 HP, 609 lb-ft

    We don't know the facts about R2, we will know more in a couple days. But yes, an egg shaped car with the same battery pack size will have significantly more range than an actual SUV. If you care about range, buy the egg.
  7. The Rivian R2 Reviews are Here!!! 656 HP, 609 lb-ft

    This might be a little pessimistic. The Gravity is a bit larger. Also, may depend on what you mean by highway speeds. R1 can get 2.5-2.6 mi/kWh at highway speeds, meaning 70-75 mph (not 80-85). Anyway, Gravity's EPA range/capacity is 3.6+ mi/kWh, if R2 gets that from the EPA, the range numbers...
  8. Rivian headlights at night in snowstorm = zero visibility

    The grill brackets are from Skookum Racing and are pricey but great. I went with Morimoto 2-Banger amber fog lights, but I’m sure Diode Dynamics is great. For wiring, I would look for guides for installing ditch lights, which a few companies sell as a kit and include instructions. I think I saw...
  9. Judge orders NEVI Funding restored

    Thank you for posting civilly. Respectfully, whoever told you this stuff is misleading you. I'm not a climate scientist but I have talked to them and 1-3 are incorrect. Not expecting you to change your mind based on an anonymous car forum post.
  10. Six R2 Launch Colors Confirmed by tate16t?

    No chance. Your list is missing black, off-white, white-ish, silver, and grey.
  11. 2025 R1S Dual Standard - Battery calibration text from Rivian - Anyone else get this?

    Thanks for this data. I'm sure that the preheating the battery is a big help to keeping your efficiency reasonable. That said, your battery chemistry is NMC and this thread is about the LFP batteries.
  12. The best and worst vehicle to move with. [RANDOM RANT]

    "The best and worst vehicle to move with" This could apply to R1S too. Tons of volume. But try putting a box that is 2.5ft tall in the back.
  13. Gen 1 R1S quad got a silent 0-60 bump, was 3.1 now 3.0 on used R1S

    The magic of software updates. By 2030 my Gen 1 quad should be in the 2.4s range.
  14. Official: Scout EV SUV & Pickup debut w/ Gas Range Extender EREV, 4x4, BOF, Lockers, Sway Bar Disconnect -- All Specs, Wallpapers, Videos

    I really like this approach. For city driving 190" would be a nice improvement on the R1S length. (Too bad the Scout will be just as wide as R1S if I understand right.) Then put a spare on the back for adventuring.
  15. Purchased used, curious what might be missing from R1S

    There is also a plastic piece over the trailer hitch that pulls off. Those are the only other things I can think of that are removable from the vehicle.
  16. Purchased used, curious what might be missing from R1S

    Check that your frunk has the net at the front and the false floor fold-up thing. Here you can see it folded up with the portable charger bag underneath. In the trunk, underneath the false floor back there, was a carpet insert thingy with space for the first aid kit and air compressor kit.
  17. Rivian PLEASE give us a VERY LOW REGEN for Conserve Mode and Snow.

    Yes, but again you can simulate this with two-foot driving - keep your right foot close to the middle (zero accel or regen) and use the left foot for the friction brake.
