  1. No Blended Braking Option R2?

    The wording of the release notes is ambiguous, agreed. However, the posts here leading up to this release and the threads documenting it generally agreed that blending in brakes at all was a new feature. It was understood at the the time that the Bosch system in Gen 1 vehicles was capable of...
  2. No Blended Braking Option R2?

    No, before 2023.50 there was no brake assist. It was added in response to complaints about people losing regen power while driving, e.g. on a long downhill run. https://riviantrackr.com/2023-50/
  3. No Blended Braking Option R2?

    Just want to clarify that it was brake assist itself that was added at the end of 2023, not the ability to disable it. Prior to that the R1 was regen-only on the right pedal. There could not have been premature brake wear caused by this feature prior to 2024.
  4. No Blended Braking Option R2?

    According to the R2 owners manual (page 163) brake assist is always enabled except when towing a trailer. It does not appear that it can be disabled as in R1. Perhaps a future SW update will make it configurable.
  5. Ford Fathom EV Pickup ($28,350 Starting Price) - News & Info

    Did you mean to type "typical" and "Lightning?" The Maverick seems like it's continued to sell pretty well.
  6. Whine Incoming: My Kingdom for a Cargo Liner

    Looks like linerx makes one for the R1S too: https://linerx.com/collections/all/products/linerx-cargo-liner-for-rivian-r1s
  7. No real AM or FM radio in the R2

    OF COURSE you object to these sentiments. You're exhibit A of the "I'm so smart and eveyone else is dumb" camp. It's easy to see from all the responses from other people who have called you out for this many times. You never seem to hear it and do any self reflection and improvement. I have...
  8. No real AM or FM radio in the R2

    And in general, the dynamic of people commenting that someone else's complaint about a missing feature is trivial or out of touch is also one we've seen repeatedly here, but it's still indefensible.
  9. R2 vs Model Y 70-MPH Highway Range Test (by Out of Spec)

    This is the most boomer thing I have read in a while - I am disappointed it was not posted over an image of a minion, though. ;)
  10. Update on R2 order invitation timing now in account

    Where are people seeing an estimated delivery window after ordering? All I see in my account is my order date. I received two emails: one confirming my order and one telling me my R2 was in "preproduction" but neither of them indicated a wait time.
  11. Is the trailer hitch on G1 R1S "grounded"?

    No, he said that was the case on his previous vehicle (Tacoma)
  12. 12 Volt Demons Caught Up With The Count

    Got the truck back from its second appointment. I suspect that the initial mobile technician only replaced one of the two batteries, because on the second visit they reported one of the batteries was actually degraded, so not just a software issue. They replaced it at no charge.
  13. Does the Rivian R2 have: SiriusXM and Walk-Away Lock

    I know the R2 software is a bit different, but on the R1 there is a master list of media apps that you can use to add and remove media apps from the media selector widget. If SiriusXM was not added to the media selector widget on that R2, it would not have appeared as a selectable source.
  14. Does the Rivian R2 have: SiriusXM and Walk-Away Lock

    1. Yes it does 2. It does, but it's via internet streaming not satellite
  15. Great Truck - Unrealistic to Maintain

    I think your second sentence there is the crux of the matter, and on which the OP would presumably disagree. There seems to be an increasing drumbeat of posts here that there are indeed major failure points which cause expensive repairs, which could be unmanageable when out of warranty.
  16. Aftermarket R2 accessories wishlist

    Would be nice to have rubber mats for the second row seat backs, too. Protects the seatbacks and becomes an extension of the rubber mat when the seats are folded down.
  17. 1 Month Update: R2 Three Day Ownership Review. Comparison to R1T. Efficiency and Range data!

    Check the screws holding on the underbody shield for a missing one. They were a problem item on the R1, and one of mine fell off and right in to my tire...
  18. R2 Cargo / Trunk Cover For Dog Fur

    You may want to consider restraining the dog in such a way that it cannot fly into the back seat area in a collision, which may mean a crate instead of a tether (which helps corral the shedding, too). Even a small dog can become a lethal projectile flying around your car in an accident.
  19. Does the Apple Music app have SharePlay?

    I doesn't mess up your library as long as you don't save or favorite anything, but it definitely does mess with your recommendations in terms of suggested playlists, songs, and artists on the home screen, as well as the songs that play in "radio" channels. My Apple Music account is now pretty...
  20. Finished R2 demo test drive? Share your review / impressions

    Counterpoint: it's more accessible/adaptive. You can perform nearly all the actions from behind using your fingers (as long as you remember the tilt is reversed). For people with thumb issues this allows them to operate the controls with their fingers, which is not possible when the controls...
