  1. LAST CALL Rivian 1/43 models

    I totally want a Red R1T w/ Black Interior. Even better if you can get the 21" wheels on it too.
  2. To FOB, or not to FOB?

    I've got a 2022 R1T with over 30K miles on it and I've never used the FOB. The only thing I've done with it is take it to the car for the occasional software update that they want to push to the FOB. The phone has been super reliable, and for the handful of times where it was not practical...
  3. No cruise control after alignment

    I had a similar issue after I got my tires replaced and an alignment done. I think I got a warning that the system needed to calibrate itself first. It was about a 20 mile ride for me to get home from the service center and it was working by the time I got home. I'd say if it is not working...
  4. R1T a little louder in the winter...

    Mine does the same thing. It's the air compressor running to keep the pressure up in the suspension. If you remember your high school physics then you'll remember that: PV = nkT So, as "T" temperature goes down so does "P" pressure and the compressor needs to run to keep the pressure up in...
  5. Tank Turn _ Why couldn't we get it too?

    They did implement it: Tank Turn | Electric Adventure Vehicles | Rivian (youtube.com)
  6. ABRP and Tesla Superchargers in Utah

    ABRP probably didn't know where "Itah" was. I don't think they've added the chargers for that state yet. ;)
  7. Connect+ Charged = No Internet This Morning - How to Fix?

    If this is an AT&T issue, this is really bad timing for Rivian. The day you start paying for the service is the same day all of their connected stuff goes down? Does anyone know if I can get Spotify back by tethering my Rivian to my phone? Or do I just stream via bluetooth until this is fixed?
  8. The psychology of parking

    I have a few strategies for avoiding door dings and it has worked for me so far. If a lot has parallel parking, then use that first. I've never had someone bump my car from a parallel parking space. Park on at the end of the row and as far towards the curb / edge of the spot as possible. Park...
  9. RAN, Unreliable? Centerville, TX, Embarrassing!

    Have you ever charged successfully at a RAN charger? My truck had some kid of authentication issue that had to be fixed at a service center before I could use RAN. Since hat was fixed, all of the RAN stations have worked flawlessly for me.
  10. Trip Report -- Virginia to Niagara in Canada and Back

    I just finished my longest trip to date in my R1T going to Canada and back from Virginia. The total distance was just shy of 1,000 miles (970). The bottom line is that we ran into no problems with the truck or charging infrastructure. The Rivian "guestimate" is always a little bit too...
  11. Rudy’s BBQ Tesla Charger available to non-Teslas?

    PlugShare is usually good about updating the status of Tesla chargers being for Tesla only or not. It is still listed as Tesla only on PlugShare: https://www.plugshare.com/location/164016 So, it looks like it is NOT available yet.
  12. An idea for “saying hi” to other Rivians on the road

    I'm an always waver and I never feel like an idiot when someone does not wave back. That's on them for being a curmudgeon.
  13. 21” tire max mileage

    I'm just shy of 30K miles and still on my first set of 21" tires. I drive almost all the time in all-purpose normal ride height. VA has a yearly safety inspection and I'm expecting that it will be too little tread left this fall when mine is due and I'll have to get a new set.
  14. Rivian On Front Page (second story from the top) On Reuters This Morning

    Reuters has their take on the VW deal which is not that surprising, but I didn't expect to see a big picture of RJ on the front page: https://www.reuters.com/business/autos-transportation/cloaked-audis-covert-ceo-meeting-how-vws-5-bln-rivian-bet-transpired-2024-06-27/
  15. Does everyone have 2024.11.03?

    According to RivianTracker, very few people have .03:
  16. Anyone successfully activated a resold wristband or keycard?

    If they won't do it for you over the phone, then I'd get it done the next time you have to go into the service center. I bet if you just hand it to the guy at the service center when you drop off the car and ask him to activate it, they can do it no problem.
  17. Anyone successfully activated a resold wristband or keycard?

    Yes, I wrote up a post last year on how I did it: https://www.rivianforums.com/forum/threads/how-to-pair-a-wristband-key-with-your-rivian.15430/ I'm not sure if has changed any. Let everyone know if there's a new way to do it.
  18. Reno to Tucson... Can't get there from here.

    According to A Better Route Planner you should be able to make it in 17.5 hours (assuming R1T quad motor and off road tires):
  19. Did anyone configure and not buy out of the shop?

    The fact that you have a VIN assigned is a good sign. My experience is about 1.5 years old, but at that time it was about a month from getting your VIN assigned to getting your truck delivered.
  20. Did anyone configure and not buy out of the shop?

    A think a lot of us configured and did not take delivery from the shop. I don't think the shop existed when I took delivery. My guess is that they are holding off on custom orders until after production line is started back up. Do you have a guide assigned yet? They should give you an estimate.
