Something that institutional investors know and hence selling, but retail investors (like some of us) don’t?
I am not reading any bad news on early R2 quality or volume or cost issues.
We have both Teslas (M3, MY, had MS before - and love them) and a R1T Gen2 (love it). Our family friends have only Teslas (M3 and MX). Their kids are blown away with R1's looks, presence. They bought a R1S for one day but returned it next day and immediately purchased and picked up a MY. Their...
I have searched a bit and with many pages to look for, wasn't getting to the point. So pinging the community for latest advice on rotations? I am putting 5 new tires (for spare as well). Wondering if I should do the 5-tire rotation policy, or 4-tire (most common) and leave the spare in the...
$2000 for the full set. Local pickup please. San Francisco Bay Area.
22inch factory range wheels with 275/50/22 factory Pirelli All Season tires. Set of 4. No scratch or curb rash or any other blemishes. Never removed the aero covers. Sharp handling & responsive, very quiet tires, pretty good...
Seems to be significantly cheaper ($299) than other options out there ($1,500+), and very good reviews - for other trucks. Any R1T owners that have experience with this system? How much clearance do we loose etc.d

so my wife's Model Y (2022) got the Grok update, and when I drive occasionally, I am fully conversing with this assistant...including using it's Language Assistant feature to learn Spanish - and it feels like a real human on the other side engaging me - including pausing for me to drive the...
I want to post a positive experience with Rivian service.
The issue:
My Gen2 R1T Dual Max dropped Rivian Fast Charge speed to 9kW (with cooling fans running loud) after 60% SOC during my road trip from LA back to SFO (onward journey the previous day had no such issues). When I stopped the...
Here is one in Bay Area 101 / Bernal exit, 32 total I think v4 chargers with max 325kW support. They have the long cable (known) + their placement allows for both back-in and pull-in methods. Some pics.
I was happy with the charging speeds I got at all the fast charging locations in that one day when I went San Jose to LA and returned the same day.
R1T Gen2 Dual Max Nov built (delivery in Dec). System version: 2024.51.31.
Temp was nice 50-75deg throughout the day.
Rivian Buttonwillow at...

* turned on AC. Waited for heating to settle (1min-2mins).

Through my own experience - and getting help in this community and google search to understand lease math, rent charges, early buyout cost etc - I combined my knowledge gained in the last month into this google sheet. It's read-only, so to plug in your numbers, pls download/save locally and play...
The wheels & tires have exactly 1K miles now (less than a month old as of Jan 8 2025) on my 2025 Gen2 R1T. They will likely get another 2K Miles by the time the Atomic 20in AWD wheels+Tires I am ordering will arrive (end of February, 2025 estimate). In my limited drive, I am getting about...
Ski trip within 3 days of delivery - after all, its an adventure vehicle - no point babying it in the garage...that said, it came with full front protection film from factory, and soon I will be Twrapping (thank you @twraps for all the help with email and fast shipping) some other parts of the...
So with Gen1 R1T with Max Pack, the penalty from 21 -> 22in wheel is 30miles. 410miles with 21in, and 380 miles with 22.
With Gen2 R1T Max Pack with 22in is 420 miles. I wonder if Rivian kept the 21in wheel as an option, could we see a range approaching 450miles on Max Pack? Couldn't that be...
Appreciate any pointers on a website/calculator for auto lease - where I can reverse-engineer to get to the rent (interest amount) from other data I have. Edmunds came close but didn’t get me the breakdown of the monthly (principal, and rent/interest). Rivian delivery guy didn’t have that split...
