  1. 4th crack in windshield. OMG I’m so done

    Have you considered that maybe you are driving too close to the vehicle in front? I have quarter of a million miles in Rivians in all conditions and not a single crack.
  2. Google cast while driving?

    Never, I hope. People are already bad enough at driving.
  3. Today I F***ed Up - Range Cockiness

    The biggest takeaway here is that Blink is a steaming pile of hot garbage. I have never once been able to initiate a charge from one of their chargers despite many attempts.
  4. My Tesla will remain my road trip car...sns

    But your Rivian has access to MORE charging options than the Tesla... Try plugging that Model S into a RAN charger!
  5. R1S vs Lamborghini Huracan race

    I'd take the R1S over the Lambo any day. Those things are just for driving slowly around city streets revving the engine with your windows down whilst wearing an unbuttoned shirt and big gold chain.
  6. Jason Camissa's verdict on R1 Gen 2: Substantial update to a near-perfect vehicle

    Bwahaha, I think we can safely discount whatever that guy says next. The Pilot is so far from Rivian drive quality it's not even funny.
  7. My R1S rear ended a delivery truck - results

    All Rivians have forward collision warning and Automatic Emergency Braking enabled by default. (Unless the driver manually disables it, but then you would have a warning telltale on the dashboard). To the other commenter, there are no such things as 'external airbags'. There are pyro hood...
  8. R3X Reveal Shocks Even More!!! ?

    Forget R2, gimme R3X, take my money now.
  9. BMW: EV’s are Dead, buy Hydrogen Fuel Cells Vehicles

    I worked at BMW some years ago, hydrogen was abandoned due to the insurmountable complexities of producing, storing, distributing and refueling hydrogen stations and cars. The fuel is highly explosive and corrosive, and requires extremely high pressures and frequent, specialized maintenance. It...
  10. Not going to be using the R1S as a roadtrip vehicle again

    Sad that you had a poor experience. I regularly do long multi-day trips in a R1T and plan ahead. I don't always stick to the plan, or spend a long time making it, but if I shortlist a number of highspeed chargers the trip goes well for me, taking only slightly longer than a gas car would.
  11. How Much it Cost to Drive a Rivian 3,000 Miles Compared to a Midsize Gas Pickup Truck Cents Per Mile

    The front end does most of the braking, its no surprise the rears were OK at 50k, but they should be changed at 30% life remaining, not 0% life remaining. Offroad, the Rivian annihilates the Tacoma in stock form, been there and done it myself. Infinitely adjustable independent wheel drive and...
  12. How Much it Cost to Drive a Rivian 3,000 Miles Compared to a Midsize Gas Pickup Truck Cents Per Mile

    In California, 6 years. Then add in the oil changes, brake jobs etc, probably more like 5 years. But which Tacoma has the performance of the R1T? How about you go and price that one up then redo the math.
  13. Is the Model X now a better buy over R1S? (WARNING: NO ELON MUSK DISCUSSIONS)

    Because they like cars? i have been building up my car fleet over 20 years and it is currently valued at around 4 times my annual salary. I don't have any loans so the value is irrelevant. I just have to pay maintenance and insurance, which is less than if I had just 1 car with a loan.
  14. Is the Model X now a better buy over R1S? (WARNING: NO ELON MUSK DISCUSSIONS)

    I've owned both. I had the X P100D with L+. It felt pretty poorly screwed together compared to the R1S, and the range was nowhere near what they claimed. If I hyper-miled it, drove at 55mph on the highway, took 30 seconds to accelerate up to 50 from the lights, no HVAC or radio on, full use of...
  15. Tire costs, about what Gas costs per mile.

    I'm at 7,000 miles on my R1T and the tires look brand new, over 90% tread remaining. Running 22" Sport Bright, most of my miles are commuting stop/start 0 - 50mph.
  16. Amazon Rivian Van - Feedback From a Driver

    There are 2 cup holders to the left of the steering wheel / instrument cluster, plus a phone shelf with multiple USB chargers below the center screen.
  17. Rivian cellular connectivity when crossing over to Canada

    It works fine. I have driven round Vancouver, Whistler, Montreal, QC and quite a bit of highway driving without issue.
