  1. Contact Sync Bug makes Phone Integration Useless

    First I want to say I am not a Rivian basher. I love my Adventure Quad R1S. As I tell all my friends it's the best car I have owned., BUT the phone integration really is terrible. CarPlay or Android auto isn't the solution, the solution is to fix the bugs with the current set up. Here is...
  2. How to charge with NACS adapter?

    I just got my A2Z adapter and was wondering exactly what I need to do to use it at a Tesla Supercharger: -- Do I need the Tesla app? -- Give Tesla my Credit card some how? -- Can I even use the Tesla App with the R1S? -- Don't think the chargers have a card reader, so I'm thinking this is not...
  3. R1S Power Outlets are the envy at garden and Home Depot

    Just have to share this..... I was working in our shared community garden, revising some raised beds by narrowing them from 4 ft wide to 34" wide (don't ask why I ever made 48" wide beds to begin with....). So I loaded my circular saw into the truck, along with some other tools, took apart...

  6. Precondition Battery for fast Charger

    I notice that often when I go to a 200 KW charger I'm not getting anywhere near the capacity I expect in a fast charge. Best I've gotten is 83 KWH at an EvGo near me. I got that by punching it in to nav and driving there. But jeez, it seems like there ought to be a way of telling the...
  7. Interior Dimensions

    I was wondering if I could lay a flat 2 x 4 x 8' in the back of this vehicle.... The answer is yes.... with a couple of inches to spare. But only on the diagonal.
