I had a roof top tent and storage gear on top of my R1S from almost day one, so I’ve never realized the efficiency of the standard vehicle. So, I have to charge a little more often. Not a big deal. My efficiency ranges from 1.5 to 1.8 mi/kWh on road trips. I’ll be very curious what you get with...

I’ve been trying to get a new Gen 1 key fob since last fall. Was told they were on back order. I had another service appointment today and was told the same thing.

My wife and I have the two Rivian-Hest co-branded mattresses for the R1S. We are very pleased with them.

Is your wiring passing through metal conduit? I guess metal conduit will amplify the vibration . That’s what I have.

Like what BCondrey stated, I am also receiving the red flashing light at the top with green pulsating lights

Yep, that is exactly what I am seeing.

thanks for the reply. I was also wondering if you have that eletrical buzz/hum when charging at 48 amps? I notice a significant difference between 40 amps and 48 amps. 40 amps is nearly silent with little heat generated.

Very informative. Good to know this is a known issue with R1.

I see. The “AZ” in your handle must stand for Arizona. 😂

I’ve been using a Tesla Universal Wall Charger to charge my Model Y and R1S for almost 2 years. The install was coordinated by Qmerit and the electrician they contracted knew what they were doing. My neighbor also used them and would concur. Recently I noticed that the R1S was only charging at...

thanks for the post. Very interesting about the R1T with 72K miles and perfect looking rotors. Out of curiosity, do you live in a region where road salt is used in the winter?

Thanks for the post. Yes, I also switched off the “Regenerative Braking Assist” in the very beginning. I am amazed at how powerful the R1 regen is. I’ve found that even when switched to “Low” the regen braking often is still enough to slow down the vehicle without needing to press the brake.

As a follow-up question, if I ask Rivian to take a look at my brake rotors during a previously scheduled service appointment, should I plan on Rivian charging me a labor rate just to look at them? So far I have paid zero dollars for all 17 of my service visits (except for the replacement of the...

Thanks for your reply. I’m on the fence as to if I want to add this to my service ticket for next month’s service appointment. I don’t feel like there is anything wrong with the brakes. Just visually the rotors don’t look that great and now I have developed an infatuation with everyone’s brake...

We do live in the Chicago area, so frequent driving in road salt. I wonder the fact that yours is a Gen 2 Dual makes any difference?

Hi, I’ve always used high regen with the idea that I could extend my brake life. For the most part I think this is true, however, I recently noticed when detailing my wheels that the rear rotors are not wearing evenly like the front. I can see some groove lines and also the wear pattern does not...

Here is a quick link to the website where you can order the kit: https://opensourceev.com/products/cargo-floor-riser Ordered mine and received in less than a week. There is a center riser bracket that fits loosely, so I’ll probably add some felt pads to the underside of it to make more secure...

that is exactly what I was thinking. I’ll have to find a Starlink mount that doesn’t cover the face of the iPad like most I’ve seen on Amazon

Same problem here. A mobile tech replaced the rubber gasket.

Not everyone is interested in getting a smaller, less capable Rivian.
