Color me dumb. What exactly does this 60 day trial include? Is there anything in there that we have to have? Is there anything in there that is crucial to the operation of the vehicle? Does the 60 day trial begin upon downloading the .27 update, or does it begin when you are first offered the...

Opal (our R1T) had her 12 volt battery replaced by Rivian Mobile Service. The mobile technician showed us a trick that allows replacing the 12 volt battery without removing the frunk tub. He removed the cowl cover in front on the windshield. He sat with his feet in the frunk and pulled on the...

We have an R1T that now has almost 7,000 miles on it. We are running the 21" Pirelli road tires on the OEM Rivian wheels. Most of our driving is local in a somewhat rural area. I have been inspecting the tires on a regular basis. All are showing 7/32" tread depth. There is no sign of any...
