Two weeks before I’m set to move from AZ to VA, my OG tonneau cover bit the dust… I’ve normally been good at PTFE’ing the rails and slats, but I guess it’s been a dusty summer and it’s been a while since I did it. Now, I’m hastily calling Rivian to see about getting the slats patched (i.e...

Back in late May, I submitted a SC appointment to have the axles greased due to the infamous tock noise. My appointment was made for 8/19 in Phoenix, the earliest available. Fast forward from May to late July, I accidentally bent the front right tie rod during a desert excursion. Woops. They...

Last year I did a trip to see what it would be like heading into Mexico with limited charging infrastructure. It’s not a big distance, but I chose the safest/highest SOC route, to get to Playa Encanto. There’s an L2 charger at the resort there, so it was the safest bet. The route I took: -...

I've been contemplating a future fun truck, now that wait times for service are incredibly long here in Arizona (scheduled a wheel bearing inspection/replacement for 5 WEEKS from now... making my R1T a 7,500lb brick in the garage). Looking around there are few trucks I'd consider for truck-like...

I'm on a roll today with posts... I went to go wash the truck at a self-service car wash, where I just use the pressure washer and hand wash my truck. I was spraying an area on the right-side on the gear tunnel when I noticed something strange happening. The clear coat (I think) started to peel...

I searched on Rivian-specific forums for anyone who may have had some symptoms of a bad wheel bearing, but couldn't find one. After having the tires rotated (which would seem pretty unrelated), I started noticing a louder-than-normal humming/groaning from the front tires. For a while I assumed...

When accelerating at WOT in the Rivian, the whine produced by motors accelerating sound very close to the acceleration sounds by the Tumbler! I wonder if RJ wanted the exact same motor noise. ?

Anyone else out there also have RC cars/trucks? I have a few Traxxas models (X-maxx, Summit crawler, Sledge), and at one point had a Raptor shell to match the gen2 Raptor I had (picture below). Since electric RC trucks reign supreme (in my opinion...), there should be a shell to match the R1T! A...

Took my 2022 R1T into Costco Tire Center to have them rotate/balance the tires (~8,000 miles on them, figured it was about time). Took the truck in, but then couldn't find a "repair guide in the system" to do a rotation/balance. I mean... I can do it in my driveway using the owner's manual and a...

What is wrong with this vehicle? Windshield wipers turned on and doesn’t go into Reverse? Mmm no thanks. Take me back to my Rivvy.

I tried to research this issue, but couldn’t find it. Maybe my keyword searching needs some work, or maybe few (or none?) have experienced this. For some reason, my steering wheel will no longer adjust beyond a few positions in the up/down and in/out movements when using the left and right...

I didn't even realize my truck was keyed until I took it in for the recall just a bit ago. I stepped out and saw a big scratch. Looked at the video and BAM! Clear as day. I went to dinner 2 nights ago (Urban Farmer, epic steakhouse). The guy keyed the Mazda behind me and the Audi in front of...
