I live on the East Coast and if I begin to off-road again more in my life, well that's a thing I don't have in spades at this exact moment in life's symphony. That doesn't mean I've lost my window browsing ability. Truth be told for my use case, on the R1 platform the 20" A/T is best or a combo...

There's a DOT regulation that says tail lights can't be placed on moving hatches unless there's redundancy elsewhere. Where do they add tails? Bottom somewhere? Federal Government gonna ruin everything. Could the tiny slits at the bottom in the second pic be them? Going to be poopy if they do...

Hi Rivian, We love you and we're loyal. We would much like to place a reservation on an R3/R3X regardless of shipping schedule. You could drop the R3X in 2031 and I would likely still be interested. Many of us are keeping our R1's and many of us are moving them for other vehicles that are more...

Edit: Straight up sale now for $80,000 firm. Slightly over 13,000 on odometer. Trade situation will not work out due to NYS law and sales tax. It's private sale or dealer trade only at this point. :(

I made a post awhile back that got a lot of traction and I promised a follow up, so here goes! The Atlantic did a marvelous job pointing to a problem, and it's a doozy and I'm seeing it more and more. I had a personal encounter with Hertz and an unsuspecting victim of the phenomenon this AM...

So I rent out my R1S in a small all-EV fleet I have, have a lot of fun, most of the renters are great. This one has been a challenge but I'm pretty confident it's not his fault. But, he's still going to have to pay for it (happened on his watch), which, is fucked up. Help me see if we can get...

I run a small rental fleet and I rent my R1S out. My last renter I think had a valet get into an accident and delete the footage. I don't want to share too many details since this is ongoing.

I pulled the trigger a month or so ago on starting a rental fleet and am using Turo as an on-ramp. Years of "good moves" on cars put me in a good position to do this and I'm having a blast. My Rivian R1S is the pride of my fleet and the joy I get out of this job is teaching people new to EVs how...

Hey, so, I'm back. First, thanks to the admins for locking this thread, where I originally was posting about what I thought was a bug having access to a non-existent R1S shop. Turns out I was right, there is no R1S shop and it was a bug. Confirmed with my guide and it no longer comes up on my...

Has to be a bug. UPDATE: Order date is 1/22, it says estimating for delivery, confirmed this. Edit: And I have a guide.

The discussion for general Tesla standard opening can be found here. Long story short, if Rivian decided, they could switch standards. Cannot italicize if enough, it's doubtful any OEMs will adopt it car-side that aren't smaller startup status like Aptera. That being said, companies like Rivian...

For me, it's a power running board. I feel like this should have been an extremely high priority on a luxury, ultimate off-roader. In terms of practicality it boggles my mind how they could be futsing about with camp kitchens and whatnot while there's still like a 12" clearence at the lowest...

I'll lead off by saying I'm not your average consumer, I spend money on things I think are worth it then keep it forever. I only retired my 2008 GTI I bought new for instance because the repairs were getting cumbersome vs. how much I drove it. If headliners weren't coming down ($1k+) and ABS...

So I've seen a lot of ink given to articles that state most of these truck reservations are multi-truck reservations for the Hummer, F150, Silverado and R1T with intent to only purchase one. Do we know how many R1T reservations are actually converting to vehicles purchased? I don't even know...

I very recently went from a high 80s to 90s spec to this. My new philosophy is minimal from Rivian, tackle everything else in the after market. This new value approach has me dropping the Max Pack as when I think about it, this has less to do with my needs and more to do with making it a...

So I'm actually a big fan of the 21s, aero blockers and all. My biggest issue is I'm a big summer and winter tire kind of guy. I mostly hit sand and dirt roads as my off-road so the all-terrain tires are overkill. It would seem like the ideal setup to stay compatible to the spare would be get a...

I've been toying with starting a cab company for awhile so I've always been struck by the R1S's ability to haul luggage and people in luxury while mitigating or eliminating the gas cost. It's probably a little tighter in the cabin but you get that frunk, good roller bag storage in the trunk and...
