  1. Living with the R2 - 48 Hour Review

    Agreed and if they aren't going to do AA/CP (they never will) then they need to separate out the applications and be able to upgrade them without having to wait for a full vehicle upgrade. It took a bunch of months to fix AM because they had to wait for the vehicle update cadence. AM to me is...
  2. Sad, but I think I’m out

    Agreed, people talk like there is a fixed pie of wealth and if you get a larger piece, you're somehow taking from them.
  3. Question on our audio systems....

    Pretty sure it's an Apple Music setting to lower quality when it can't stream fast enough from a recent update. Mine does the same on the Gen 1. It used to go pause tracks in the past vs. lower the quality from my experience.
  4. 2027 R1 Due in August - What's Changing?

    Winamp skins. Prepare to be underwhelmed.
  5. Sad, but I think I’m out

    So if lease rates for Tier 1 credit are roughly 10%, who benefits from that, Rivian and Chase? Just Chase? I'd love to know what the money factor/interest rate would be for Tier 2 credit and beyond. The number seems astronomically high for a R2. I know Porsche and other more expensive...
  6. USB-C ports limited to 15 watts in R2?

    Tons of Tesla/Elon haters here unfortunately. All the virtue signaling from ohhhh I sold my MY to get a Rivian is comical.
  7. Ketchum: Wait for LiDAR? - The Rivian R2 LiDAR story isn’t what you think

    The trick is to have them fail before the 12 months are up. I'm on my 3rd recently and have never paid for any of them. Right after the update, boom, warning replace the battery. I'm just glad I never got stuck anywhere (yet).
  8. Biodefense mode or HEPA air filter for Rivian??

    Because it's all cost cutting measures. They skimp on pretty much everything from audio to weak power inverters.
  9. Half Moon Grey R2 with Ammo Reflex V Enamel Coat

    He works on great cars but in the YouTube world of detailing, his products are never mentioned in the mainstream detailing channels.
  10. Half Moon Grey R2 with Ammo Reflex V Enamel Coat

    Coleton is awesome to watch and would happily support him if I lived in Colorao. I enjoy detailing stuff myself and learning from all the videos he has. I use Armour Detail for pretty much everything now since they are a smaller business but produce high-quality products. I know Coleton loves...
  11. Rivian Assistant very slow

    Just tag Wassym and he'll have it fixed by the top of the hour! Hey RA, turn on the rear fan to high so my dog doesn't melt, "I can only pick between 1-4" lol
  12. Lease or buy?

    Lease rates are like 10% when you convert the money factor. It'll sell like hotcakes but a lot of people still want to lease and that price is definitely a barrier.
  13. R2 w/ LiDAR, 19-inch wheels spied

    I'm sure your points are accurate as you have used it way more than me. I only experienced it for less than an hour, months ago and have a Gen 1 so nothing to compare it to. I just don't believe Rivian will ever catch Tesla in any meaningful EV area due to the many years of experience and talent...
  14. Video: R2 owner demonstrating charging session at Tesla Supercharger

    I almost like my NACS to CCS charging condom that is well cared for with no rusty exposed pins etc... Hotel chargers are even in worse shape and I would rather use an adapter there as well.
  15. R2 w/ LiDAR, 19-inch wheels spied

    *Until they try FSD for the first time. I thought I only wanted adaptive cruise with lane keeping but was completely blow away with FSD because NY traffic absolutely sucks. I tried it months ago with a friends M3 and I have a hard time believing Rivian will match them anytime soon.
  16. New Tesla Model Y L launching this weekend [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS, NO ELON TALK]

    It's an echo chamber in here unfortunately but the real world suggests that Tesla will still sell a ton of vehicles despite the petty boycotts and "before Elon went crazy" bumper stickers.
  17. R2 w/ LiDAR, 19-inch wheels spied

    Never had a Tesla to experience the updates but being a Gen 1 R1S owner, the best updates were to the awful suspension which is still awful but less porpoising, Connect+ & Google Maps, most of the rest were blah to me.
  18. R2 w/ LiDAR, 19-inch wheels spied

    Meanwhile I ask RA if my center floor vents are on and it says no (wrong) and then I ask to turn the rear vents on high and it says sorry can only pick speeds 1-4...
  19. CA EV rebate to launch July 1?

    Rivian did the same thing in NY with the "Drive Clean Rebate" 60+ models but Rivian missing. Audi, BMW, MB, Land Rover, Porsche all there but not Rivian...
  20. New Tesla Model Y L launching this weekend [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS, NO ELON TALK]

    R2 leases are gouging with the equivalent of a 10% interest rate. That's an absurd number for people with Tier 1 credit.
