  1. Verbiage changed in-app

    I just checked; on my app it says ‘your R2 is almost here’. I’m a R1T owner and I reserved back in Aug ‘25
  2. a thought on making 12v last longer

    the one I really like is made by Schumacher. I also have a Noco Genius 10 that can repair/desulfate but I feel that the Schumacher works better and has brought back/revived some of my old lead acid batteries
  3. a thought on making 12v last longer

    I’m the owner of a ‘22 R1T with about 55k miles on it. Still on the original pair of batteries but I suspect sometime soon it’ll need a new set (from everything I’ve read). I keep my Gear Guard and proximity unlock turned off at home in an effort to ease the load on my 12v batteries (so far it...
  4. How quickly will R2 be built

    It almost never works like that; I’d say *maybe* at most 30% of reservations actually come to fruition. Maybe. So many people drop out (for example, Cybertruck, and Hummer, and Lightning). Other new cars come out, people lose their jobs, the timing ends up being wrong etc. I’d bet that if...
  5. R1T 12v battery replacement every 2 years?!

    ‘22 R1T, approaching 55k miles, still on its original batteries. Mine lives outside year round in the extreme cold and summer heat. I do have Gear Guard disabled at home. Just another data point.
  6. Launch Mode - Times

    This was fall ‘24 in my ‘22 R1T Quad on 21s; 74% SOC, about 400ish lbs of computer gear/parts in the frunk and gear tunnel at Cecil County Dragway. I just floored the accelerator (no left foot braking) when the third yellow light was starting to go out. Super easy peasy to drive. I had it in...
  7. Had to replace 12v battery on Gen 1

    I have GearGuard turned off at home but it’s on otherwise.
  8. Had to replace 12v battery on Gen 1

    Hello there - I am the same experience so far as you - mine is a ‘22 R1T VIN 8xxx with about 54k miles and I am still on my original batteries. Just FYI
  9. 2025 R1S Dual Standard - Battery calibration text from Rivian - Anyone else get this?

    Hello! I typically would have gotten 2.4 or 2.5 mi/kwhr if it were say 60-80F ambient temp on that same commuting day doing the same mileage and stops and whatnot. I’m real happy with the efficiency of this mid size truck (I’m an IT specialist and make house calls and typically my truck is...
  10. 2025 R1S Dual Standard - Battery calibration text from Rivian - Anyone else get this?

    hi there. Mine is a ‘22 R1T Quad on ‘21s; It’s been in the deep freeze here for over a week now (can’t wait for this cold spell to ease up - when I left in the morning on this day it was 7 F outside and when I got back home at night it was 5F. The high during the day it got up to 18F). I had...
  11. Sap Removal - R1T Hood

    Isopropyl rubbing alcohol 91% is the best for tree sap (I live in a pine forest). It takes the sap off right away. But as soon as you wipe it off, you should wash the truck (and then I use a ceramic spray sealant on the paint to further protect it; I really like the Turtle Wax Graphene...
  12. Dashboard Rattle - Solved using rubber seal strip

    Nice car! my other fun car isnt a FoRS, but it’s close - it’s a GR Corolla Morizo (named Mr Miyagi 🤣)
  13. Phantom / Vampire Drain Solution Works! Using 12v Battery Tender

    I’d say you hit the nail on the head; I bet that a sleeping R1 is using close to 1 amp and that’s why it never indicates green (but your vampire drain is negated). as was said, I’d be very curious to know if a 2amp was sufficient to catch up and indicate green overnight (mine is a ‘22 R1T...
  14. Very cold temperature range report - part II - with pics and data!

    hi. I always run the truck in High Regen (I really like the one pedal driving on all EVs that I drive). When it’s this cold, I’ve noticed that the battery temp climbs approximately 1 deg F for about every 7-8 miles driven (at least in my truck it does)
  15. Battery freeze up

    My ‘22 R1T seems to do fine in the cold too (right now as I write this it’s 6F outside, and truck lives outside; see previous posts I’ve made about cold efficiency recently). But where I live it never really gets much colder than low single digits F and it rarely does that even. But -33F...
  16. Very cold temperature range report - part II - with pics and data!

    Oh, forgot to mention that there was near zero Regen for the first half of the day until the battery got over 30F. The first couple of client stops you can see the average efficiency in the 1.6x range but it keeps climbing throughout the day as the battery slowly warms up ending up at a final...
  17. Very cold temperature range report - part II - with pics and data!

    Following my post of last week, today was very cold and windy with 3” of snow last night. As requested I took pics this time from start and throughout my commute. The truck was dead cold when I left in the morning (hadn’t been driven or plugged in for 2 days) and I stopped throughout the day...
  18. Extreme cold weather driving report - 2022 R1T Quad

    it seems to take a little time to really start warming up (reminds me of my ICE cars in cold weather) but it is very comfy after a little while with the cabin set to 70 (vents on floor and front of dashboard) and with the heated seats on 2 and the steering wheel heat on.
  19. Extreme cold weather driving report - 2022 R1T Quad

    I guess I should add that here where I live (Wilmington DE area) we don’t have big elevation or mountain passes! We are flat with small hills (I doubt my total elevation climb and fall over the 93 miles was more than a few hundred feet)
  20. Extreme cold weather driving report - 2022 R1T Quad

    I wish I’d thought to take pics!!! I’ll Try to remember and take some tomorrow!
