    Rivian offering free XPEL Stealth PPF wrap during factory shutdown!! $5K value

    This isn't speculation, they offered factory full stealth in the past and it was clearly stated that the warranty is same as vehicle, and they only wrap edges where panel removal is not necessary.

    Rivian offering free XPEL Stealth PPF wrap during factory shutdown!! $5K value

    Likewise, it's jumping to conclusion that Rivian will be using same materials and install process as a reputable Xpel dealer. Rivian did in fact offer full body PPF (stealth) but then they pulled it from the configurator. Rivian is optimizing for volume production so speed and value is...

    Rivian offering free XPEL Stealth PPF wrap during factory shutdown!! $5K value

    For those who missed out, don't feel bad, they use precut pieces and do not wrap some of the crucial edges, so you're better off spending more and getting it done at a reputable shop instead. Remember, Rivian is optimizing for volume and efficiency here so the factory option is completely...

    Best 3rd party tonneau cover?

    I have the Interrobang cover, and my only complaint is that it doesn't create a water-tight seal, so definitely something to keep in mind when storing gear.

    Tesla saves Rivian - Mammoth Mountain Edition

    I don't think it's fair to imply Rivian would not be here if it wasn't for Tesla. You can argue the talent development and public opinion factors, but you must also point out the massive greenfield advantages of having no competition. Remember, Tesla is a big reason why RJ pivoted away from the...

    Tesla engineer urges Rivian to move charge port location on R2, R3, R3X for Supercharger access

    The problems of "cable is too short" and/or "cabinet needs to be in middle" are orders of magnitude easier to solve than redesigning the vehicles..

    Need Advice on getting quad vs. dual

    Today, you'll get better efficiency and range with DM, but QM is going to be the superior driving experience in most applications. This is coming from the lead engineer who worked on both systems.. I would actually argue the simplified hardware/software design is the best aspect of DM as that...

    Need Advice on getting quad vs. dual

    Unless you take both out on a track in inclement weather, you may not be able to tell the difference 😉 As Mason put it, the only vehicle better than a dual motor Rivian... Is a quad motor Rivian.

    Do Inflatable Jacks Work?

    I like the extra utility of the HiLift, but I'm not sure if it will even work with R1T on sliders.. plus, the added risk of operating at near the recommended weight limits makes me think there are safer alternatives that don't have the possibility of permanent injury.

    I have RUS + sliders installed. I agree with you on stability, this is precisely why I'm looking for alternatives to my current setup..

    Do Inflatable Jacks Work?

    Correct, I'm looking for a more practical alternative to my bottle jack if I need to lift up a corner on uneven terrain.
