Just moved and realized I still have the brand new Chilewich mats that came in my Rivian. I swapped them out on day one with the all-weather mats and threw these in the garage, only just discovering them again when I moved.
They are the original mats from an early model R1T purchased in June...
I was one of the early adopters with Rivian. I placed my order very early on. Had also placed an order for the Ford Lightning about a year later. Figured, whichever arrived first would be the one I get. Coincidentally, three years after ordering the Rivian and two years after ordering the...
OR BEST OFFER.....
Brand new set of Rivian R1T crossbars (2 cross bars). Box never opened. Sold the truck last year and forgot I had these until cleaning out the garage to move.
Literally brand new in unopened box.
Hoping to find someone local as I'd prefer to not have to ship them. I don't...
As much as I thought I'd never sell this truck, business interests are forcing me to liquidate temporarily and have no choice but to let go of my Rivian.
It's been a fun ride. I absolutely love this truck. The ride quality is incredible, superior to most luxury cars I've owned.
I have truly...
Found this video on youtube. Not mine, but I've experienced the exact same scenarios on road trips.
No fault of Rivian, same is true for any non-Tesla EV. With the Tesla superchargers supposedly opening up to Rivians this month (13 days left), should change the perception.
But, after having...
I've been swamped and in and out of town, but Rivian literally calls DAILY to schedule me to bring my truck 1 1/2 hours away to the service center to address a throttle pedal recall. Apparently, something about, when stopped, the auto-hold doesn't always activate. Their latest messages however...
EDIT: Added photos now with the Abstract Ocean blackout lightbar with "RIVIAN" on it. Definitely looks better than just the lower portion being blacked out. Not sure I love the overall look yet, but it's better. Maybe now 50/50 on if I keep it. These should at least, remove any "mustache" talk...
Naturally, when we have something, we tend to take it for granted after a while. My truck went in for service and was given a Mach-E rental car. Was a nice enough car. Better than I thought it would be.
My same day service turned into about a month. Longest I recall being without any car I've...
EDIT 12/21/2023: Read my later posts for the daily updates. The situation just gets more interesting as each day goes on......
EDIT: 01/02/2024: Truck fixed, see details at end of post or new post in this thread if interested.

I LOVE MY TRUCK. That's why I have one.
This is...
Noticed I wasn't able to play spotify first. Then got home and tried to connect to my Wifi and realized it wouldn't connect to 5g cellular or my Wifi. My phone app doesn't connect to the truck for the same reason.
Tried a soft reboot, that didn't work. Tried a hard reboot and it tells me it's...
Not sure how long it's been open, but was pleasantly surprised to be guided to the Rivian Adventure Network charger at the south end of Las Vegas on my way out of town. Last time I was there a couple of months ago, it didn't come up.
I think there were 8 chargers. There appeared to be another...
I posted in June about a trip to northern California where I used the Electrify America Charger at 46331 W Panoche Road, Firebaugh, CA (Shell Gas Station off of the 5 Freeway). I had previously tried it and was horrible. In June, I wasn't paying attention and got routed there again. Same...
I didn't think much of it, but apparently an electric truck hauling around an ICE engine gained a lot of attention. Through my 575 mile drive today, had no less than 10 people ask if they could take a photo.
I've had my truck for 14 months and completed a couple of 660 mile trips that were completed in moderate temperature climates. Usually average 2 miles per kw on 20" all-terrains. Most of this trip will be through soring temperatures above 100 degrees.
This one today will be a 754 mile round...
Just got my updated registration and noticed it's registered as commercial vehicle, which I understand is due to the weight.
Am wondering if there any benefits to having a commercial vehicle versus a regular passenger vehicle? Besides them letting me pay $1,150 for my registration!! LOL
FINALLY, A CENTER CONSOLE TRAY THAT FITS "PERFECTLY"
Have tried at least 6 of these things. Just about all of them were tight on the sides and were tough to get in and out. Having to stretch the console lid doors to get them in or out. Most also had very small little tabs to hold them in place...
Just got this bed mat in today to replace the original one I had to cut to size. This one was cheap, but is custom made specifically for the Rivian.
Please share any photos / links of bed mats you have tried and are happy with. Considered the EV1, but those hexagons look like they would catch...
My truck, when backing up or pulling forward and close to objects, as expected, brings up the proximity sensor display on the center cluster screen. For a while, have noticed that the rear sensor area says "off", which would be those in the rear bumper of the truck. All the others work properly...
Anyone in California receive a registration renewal notice?
Realized it's been a year since I got my truck and I never got a renewal notice. Fortunately I remembered in time to avoid late fees.
I tried to go online to renew the registration. Entered in the plate and last five of the VIN and it...
Per a prior post, got my tire pressure sensors working again. However, am now having an issue where they disappear after about 30 minutes of driving. They reappear after the truck has been parked for a while and work fine for about another 30 minutes or so. Been consistently doing this. Prior to...
