  1. Best practices for preserving battery during long-term parking without power

    agreed. Just went on 3 week vacation and saw major vampire drain on mine. Turned off gear guard, problem solved. My climate schedule was off as well.
  2. Anyone have a list of Alexa commands that work?

    Does anyone have a list of Alexa commands for the Rivian. I had some luck previously with telling Alexa to turn vented seats on but I lost that a few updates ago. Heated seat and steering wheel are hit or miss. I understand there are differences if you have connect +. It’s just disappointing...
  3. Anyone with Emporia charger receive this?

    I received this message today from Emporia about a new plan for California through Weavegrid. I use their charger at home. I’m not familiar with Weavegrid. For signing up you get $50 and up to $50 or more/month off your bill. It looks like a smart system to keep you in TOU. You have to be with...
  4. Submit your questions for Wassym Q&A I’m moderating at LA Auto Show!

    Absolutely agree. I was thrilled about the blind spot camera but the resolution is poor and at night it is just glare. Clearly they had cameras for this reason but the gen 2 ones are 8x better?! Why such a huge difference? Software such as driver + really feels lacking.
  5. Windshield - Too easy to get chips/ cracks.....Any experience

    In my one year of ownership I’ve had two cracks that were able to be sealed in my R1S gen 1. I don’t think this is just a Rivian problem as Tesla’s windshields are also easily susceptible. Then again I live in California…take your pick
  6. safety issue - blind spot warning

    this has been an issue for Gen 1 from the beginning. The system not working below 20mph at all is even more frustrating and dangerous since there is a greater likelihood of a motorcycle, bicycle or car in your blind spot. Use your turn signals to view the camera. Additionally the R1S is not the...
  7. 2025 R1S updated must-have accessories list?

    Screen protectors are a must If you are shorter, running boards or sliders. The kneel mode is not enough for kids and older adults. I put on Real wheels EV’s all steel boards in black which made everyone happy. Jack pucks. Why doesn’t Rivian include these? Seat back mats and trunk mats to...
  8. Volvo EX90 configurator live

    i just got my Volvo configuration email and promptly cancelled my order. Delays in delivery and Missing software such as driver assistance when delivered? Sorry Volvo, I had high hopes but Rivian all day ever day
  9. Proud Gen-1 owner

    All these updates are really amazing and show how far Rivian has come. That being said, as a Gen1 owner, I am disappointed that we aren’t getting the blind spot screen despite having the cameras and hardware. Yes I know they point in a lower direction, but for being early adopters, I think this...
  10. R1S chiming for no apparent reason

    I went through this yesterday. It’s an infuriating chime because there is no notification where it is coming from. I found my camp speaker being the cause and turned it off. Mind you it lives in its charger station so I suspect it may have gotten unlocked. Disconnecting and slamming back in...
  11. Any R1S owner coming from XC90?

    We traded our 2017 hybrid Volvo because we were much more experienced with EV’s and got our R1s last year. It is larger in all dimensions, including approx 5” higher ground clearance. That did mean running boards were needed. The third row seats can accommodate car seats and are wider and...
  12. Rivian R1S questions.

    You are right, it’s laminated in the front windows. Dual pane is not the same. Thanks for the clarification! My bad if that is what you were referring to, Redline
  13. Rivian R1S questions.

    If you lower your front window and run your fingers over it, you can feel the two pieces sandwiched together. You can also see the difference with the rear windows which are single pane. This has been introduced since the beginning at Rivian and when the MY was released due to excessive road noise
  14. Rivian R1S questions.

    the front windows of the R1S are dual pane just like in Teslas.
  15. What is the best cargo liner to get for R1S .

    I have the linerx cargo mat. They’re reasonably price and hold up. The downside is I had to remove those sliding bag tiedowns from the rails otherwise it won’t sit flat
  16. Rivian Inland Empire

    Right on nice to see an IE group! I’m Ronak and live in Redlands. I picked up my QM R1S adventure FG/OC last year. Been a great roadtripper.
  17. Rivian R1S Extended Rendering

    Agreed! The render has the 3rd row seats in their same position but I’d have them more forward to get a bigger trunk and subtrunk. Hooray for extra towing. The QM could definitely handle this
  18. Sport Mode vs. AT Mode efficiency?

    Agree. Conserve mode for highway driving lowers the ride and improves efficiency. But the minute I see traffic or my off ramp, back to AP.
  19. My Rivian Driver+ almost killed me

    That’s a terrifying experience. Glad to hear you were ok. I find Tesla Autopilot (non Fsd) is far better at keeping me centered and can hold up to rain. My driver + gave up without warning while driving in SoCal on a highway we’ve travelled before in rain. Sadly the Rivian techs aren’t able to...
