Is it just me or do others not like that when RA gets activated it doesn't pause the music and everything is just playing in the background? I find that it makes it hard to hear the response and if it's a long response then I'm missing a big chunk of the podcast or music that I'm listening to...

They said that they have been working with LiDAR for a few years now so it'll assume that they've made a easy retrofit for the early 2026 R2 to accept LiDAR. It doesn't make sense to have two production models just half a year apart with different parts and wiring. Either the parts will be...

I've been burned by Tesla almost 10 years ago regarding self driving promises so this is expected. I bought my Gen 1 R1T knowing that it'll likely never ever self drive. That's just the way technology works.

Sold!

Location: Pasadena, CA. Bought last year, but I opted to get the retrofit from Rivian, so I no longer need it. In very good condition. I did not get the optional carry bag. Local pickup only.

I wonder if most of this is just for the sake of employee retention. The very smart creative employees tend to want to start their own companies. This prevents them from leaving to create their own thing by giving them ownership of the new spin-off without having to leave the company. Later...

That is really nice. What was the original color of the R1S?

With the R2 coming, it's probably not a bad idea for Rivian to push the R1 series even higher end with more luxury features in order to separate the two lines. The R1S will be high luxury SUV and the R1T will be more and more off-road capable with various interior trim levels.

Yes, most people who were really interested in Canoo was interested in their platform modularity. Too bad it was managed even worse than Fisker. The concept was great though. But this is much less ambitious than that. This is just a plea to create standardized space and attachment points...

Looking at the cottage industry that has come into existence in the three short years since Rivian delivered their first vehicle, I feel that there is a strong demand for tailored accessories for people's trucks/SUVs. In fact, I'd say one of the biggest draws that created so much excitement for...

I think all of this Apple talk is too much of a distraction. I can't imagine any partnership between them outside of a superficial level that would improve Rivian as a company. Any deep partnership with Apple would mean a deep integration with the Apple ecosystem, but any deep integration with...

Ok, that worked. Was able to find it on the stream recording but it didn't get marked as an incident.

Thanks for your help. I'm not even that heart broken about the accident. Just annoyed at having to go through the process of getting it fixed. Looks like it will be quite a process.

I have it setup for incidents. Wonder why it didn't record. I have a SD drive and everything. Weird. Unfortunately I'm not seeing any Rivian approved body shops on the State Farm list. I wonder what happens if the State Farm estimate ends up under pricing the Rivian body shop. I guess...

Not to hijack the thread or anything, but my R1T got rear ended on the freeway yesterday too. The tailgate was punctured and dented along with some bumper damage. No terrible but surely will be costly to repair. The 2006 Tundra that hit me took some major damage with the front end crushed at...

My predictions: 1. More modular design than the typical SUV/CUV that allows them to keep the base price down but allows for optional add-ons. Key design element is attachment points for various after-market accessories. Think Honda Element but even better such as removable seats, hatch and...

I've been a Model X driver since 2017 and also own a R1T. I agree with the accelerator and steering observations. Having said that, as someone else has mentioned, they are designed differently and will drive differently. Whether that matters to someone is personal I think. I drive both the X...

Everyone's ears are different. I consider myself somewhat of an audiophile and to me the Rivian Elevation sounds better than my Model X. Cleaner sound, better soundstage, more natural midrange, less boomy lows. In the end, it just depends on how you like your music and what you listen to...

How about having it activate when the car is under 5mph and not on a road, with turn signal activated? That would probably minimize any false activations.

Any word on the bed rack? I'd be interested in that especially if can be mounted on the crossbars for quick on/off.
