Lightly used Expedition Bed Rock for R1T, purchased new last year. Asking $490. The Expedition is a versatile rack, with three crossbars that can be moved anywhere along the rails and each crossbar having three slots that can accept a standard T-bolt. This provides great flexibility, and though...

My camp speaker is the most problematic and frustrating element of my R1T. While no doubt some of the problems are due to user error, surely all of them can't be. The speaker has always been difficult to pair with my phone, a Galaxy S23, and I think I've only successfully done it once. It...

I didn't want to hijack a thread about the R2 in which a post suggested that a true fast charging system, something that provided a decent amount of range in about the same time as fueling an ICE vehicle, roughly five minutes, was needed to convince EV skeptics to go electric, and so started a...

Last night, I got a text message from Rivian service telling to schedule an appointment "to inspect the second row seat belt assembly" in my vehicle. The message went on to say that owners should "avoid having occupants seated in the driver and passenger side seats of the second row" until the...

For those R1T owners with a powered tonneau cover who live in places where there is regular snowfall and sub-freezing temps, do you keep the bed open or close the PTC? For those who leave it closed, what do you do about clearing the snow off the cover and out of the guide rails? I can never...

The article doesn't provide any specifics and to some extent, it's not really news that a Chinese EV maker, particularly one like Geely that is already somewhat familiar with the US auto market (through its affiliation with Volvo), is in the process of preparing to enter the market. I'm not sure...

Somewhat interesting anecdotal tale about charging to 100% daily. after-60000-miles-charging-100-every-night-ford-f-150-lightning-owner-says-his-battery-shows

A Homeland Security/ICE raid today halted construction at the LG Energy Solutions plant in GA, part of the Hyundai Metaplant campus. Operations at the Hyundai EV plant at the same location were apparently unaffected by the raid. I know that the R2 is slated to transition to LGES batteries, and...

Anodized aluminum aftermarket crossbars for R1T; note that they fit the bed only. These have mostly been stored away and have seen only occasional use, so are in very good shape. All the hardware and tools as shipped are included, as well as two sets of keys. Would prefer a local sale (located...

Certainly good news. The article states that capacity is 215,000 units, but I suspect that means total capacity (R1, EDV and planned R2). Still, that would mean Rivian will be able to produce something like 150,000 R2's in Normal. I certainly hope that Rivian is able to sell that many R2's each...

My tonneau cover recently stopped closing properly. The cover opens as usual, that is, jerkily, with a lot of noise, and both stows and stops properly. It no longer closes over the bed correctly however, cycling to the end of the track, stopping momentarily, then moving forward a few inches...

The very public spat between the President and his "first bro" inspired me to put a few EV-related thoughts down and throw them out there for comment. No one, least of all me, has a crystal ball, so much of what I've written is highly speculative, though I'd like to think that it is at least...

About a week ago, the driver display on my R1T showed the tailgate down, when it was not. After dropping and reclosing the tailgate several times to no effect, I did both a soft and hard reset, also to no effect. In addition to the warning on the driver display, the tailgate button on vehicle...

Over the past several days, I've been getting text messages from Rivian with the expected, normal verbiage as follows: Your Rivian Authentication Code Is ###### This code will expire in a few minutes. Do not share it with anyone. @rivian.com # ###### The worrisome issue is, I haven't done...

SORRY - NO LONGER AVAILABLE. This my 2024 Rivian R1T Adventure (late Gen 1) Performance Dual Motor (655 hp) with Large Battery Pack.(135/131kWh) and front PPF package that was offered some months ago at a somewhat higher price. Obviously it did not sell, and I'm hoping the second time around -...

Yesterday, out of the blue, a warning message popped up on the driver's side display of my R1T that said something like: "SOS Call Button malfunction, service immediately." I was in my driveway at the time, and had just put the truck in reverse to back out. I tried to grab my phone to take a...

Edit: Revised description Selling the new, unused Scorpion AT Plus that came as the spare on my R1T. The tire has never been out of the truck bed storage compartment, so of course has zero miles and is for all intents and purposes a brand-new tire. Asking $390. Please note that tire is shown...

Let me note up front that my R1T is my first EV, so I'm a novice at EV trip planning. Thankfully, the trip I'm doing the advance planning for is not until late winter, so there's plenty of time for me to get up to speed. That said, I've spent more than few hours already and am getting...

I seem to have slightly greater vampire drain after installing the latest update and have seen a couple of posts from others who are seeing the same thing. I wounder if this is real or simply apparent, and if the latter, how widespread it may be. I did not really track VD pre-update, but it...

I finally got around to getting a flash drive for the Gear Guard. Based on the recommendations of several forum members, I bought a Samsung 256 Mb drive with 400 MB/s transfer speed. While the Rivian recognized the drive and formatted it, the drive fails to pass the speed test, so can't connect...
