  1. HVAC Settings Reset

    I've had the same issue with my R1T LE since a couple of updates ago. My fix - until they fix the software - is to tap the HVAC control and then tap a saved vent profile , A or B, which restores my vent settings. I still have to also tap the seat and steering wheel heaters first thing every day.
  2. Cabin Climate settings

    Same experience here. Gradual improvement since new in 2022, then with the latest update the dash vents are all shut off every day.
  3. Remove left pane in driver display?

    Am I the only one who wants an odometer on the driver screen? Like every car build between 1950 and 2010. So little space required, and so useful for so many things.
  4. Heated steering wheel? How warm is it supposed to be?

    How about 3 heat levels, like with the seats? The current cycle time would be the "low" setting (I'm in the cold-hand camp).
  5. I hope they reassigned the engineer responsible for the horn

    I put one of these in my R1T. Much better! Sounds like a train. Admittedly a distant train, but still a train.
  6. EV vs ICE - Most Comprehensive Study Ever Performed [report by American Chemical Society]

    My personal experience with a 2014 Model S was 110k miles with no battery problems, then rapid degradation over about a week until it was undrivable. Tesla offered a new battery for $15k, but I found a shop in Portland that replaced the single bad module for $3k, and now the car has almost-new...
  7. Lifetime XM Subscription doesn't transfer to Rivian

    If you really want the satellite service - like I did with Sirius - just buy an XM receiver with Bluetooth and transfer your lifetime plan to that. You'll have to find a way to power it (there are multiple options, like an OBD-II adapter), and mount the antenna on the roof, and just like that...
  8. New Lease Deals, 2.99% Financing Offer, $3K Trade-In Offer (as of June 1)

    Maybe they don't really want to sell a lot of cars right now? They could be building inventory before the worst tariffs hit, planning to sell the vehicles later when all car prices have risen..
  9. Radio volume control should be better by now

    I have almost the opposite problem, where it takes a lot of turning of the thumb wheel to get it loud enough to hear. I'm usually set to at least 12 in the city and 17 on the highway. I need at least 20 to feel the base. And no, my hearing is just fine. Oh, this is a launch edition R1T. I'm not...
  10. OG Rivian rooftop tent question

    I have a Skyrise, too, and definitely don't use any pins like that anywhere. I can't even imagine where they'd go.
  11. Rivian Tent

    For my R1T Gen 1, I got the Yakima Skyrise Medium tent from REI. https://www.rei.com/product/250985/yakima-skyrise-medium-tent It's the same tent that Rivian is currently selling for the R1S, but without the Rivian branding, and a lot cheaper. A few years ago Rivian advertised that tent for...
  12. More Tie Downs

    Seems like a great idea. I clicked on the link and got what appears to be the same thing but not stainless. Did you select some option that got you to stainless, or have they changed the product?
  13. Do your gear tunnel doors ever open on their own?

    It HAS happened to me. I couldn't figure out what was causing it until one day I was sitting in the car in our driveway and our cat hopped up on the hood, walked over the roof and down to the bed rail where it stepped on the release button as it walked to the back of the truck. That's why it was...
  14. Tracking Charger Usage Per User - Do You Need This?

    Tim, that's perfect! I checked out the Wallbox site, and they offer simple pay-per-charge via a QR code that works for anyone who wants to charge, and several options for designated users like tenants.
  15. Tracking Charger Usage Per User - Do You Need This?

    That's very cool, and I think that it could be useful for landlords of small complexes. For larger numbers of users, I suspect the landlord would quickly tire of billing and collecting the charging fees. If you do get this ready for prime time, let us know. I'm sure my brother would be...
  16. Oregon EV Sportline R800 Wheels and Nokian LT3 winter tires - $1800

    Where in Oregon? I'm in Hood River. Just ordered a set of wheels and tires from Tire Rack, but might be able to cancel if you're close enough.
  17. TuneIn Scam Alart !

    Me, too! But I have yet to verify that they didn't ignore the cancellation and go ahead and charge me.
  18. “Camera Not working, service vehicle”

    I had a similar problem, where the camera image froze until the infotainment was reset. Fixed quickly by Rivian service by replacing the camera. No problems since then.
