Got the update last night, the newer version of the update. Way better audio performance on my commute this AM, SiriusXM loads way faster, very minimal buffering. Apple Music loads faster as well. Apple has a very chatty protocol and requires lots of management of the buffer, etc, seems like...

I own a R1S, with 410 miles of range. I love it, I am never buying an ICE again. I am just saying I want 400+ miles of range with the current construct of temperature, charging availability, and speed of charging.

The problem with this is on a 6 hour drive in 10-20 degree weather pre heating doesn't do anything because it can't keep the battery warm enough over that period. I have an R1S, I love it, the 410 range is good, I was disappointed in the R2 range, I'll just wait a couple years, it'll get there...

Boston, Maine, NH and Canada. Much colder.

My 2018 Model S degraded a fair amount after 7 years.

All good points. Couple things, I am assuming not good conditions, thus it's not like you get 400+ miles ever, beceause of weather. Also, charging speed would help for sure, but as you go on long road trips, if you are in rural areas, charging spots aren't exactly plentiful. They are fine...

Living in the northeast, cold climate, I won't buy an EV with less than 400 miles of range at this point. I just think it's too problematic especially in cold and especially as the car (batteries) age. Long drives in winter you get 30-50% range degradation, it's 2026, how is it that all batt...

Thanks, good insight. I have stopped driving the car but I am going to apply update and see if anything changes.

Yeah I have talked to people. They won't squeeze me in. Some of it had to do with parts (one of my issues is camera) and it sounds like they think they will replace something. On the coolant issue, they basically ignore it. Though it literally comes up every 1-5 minutes of driving repeatedly...

Interesting, I have had some major issues (random thermal system fault, coolant low errors and camera errors) that are basically making my R1S undriveable. Service appointment isn't for a month, and support just tells me to reboot all the time, which does nothing. Fingers crossed this solves it.

I would wait, but then again, I had some issues. My front cameras aren't working - multiple reboots and it won't fix it. Not that it inhibits driving, but I can't use any UHF like features and it is kind of annoying because it nags me that there is a problem with my camera. This was only...

If you want CarPlay you should buy another car. It will never happen.

I installed the latest update and it is clearly better premium audio in my R1S Gen2. I did a good test of Apple Music both Dolby Atmos (Taylor Swift’s Folklore and Peal Jam’s Dark Matter) and non Atmos (Bruce Springsteen’s Wrecking Ball and U2’s The Unforgettable Fire). Atmos is way better now...

Recently came over from Tesla - bought the A2Z. It works perfectly, nicely built. May want to get it soon...it's made in Canada / shipped from there, they might be impacted from tariffs and increase prices.

Well this is my point. I am not going to be watching a movie, nor am I am going to be checking my phone...so what is the point of this feature? That is all I am saying. Sure it's a cool "look no hands" trick, but in practicality lightly resting my arm on the wheel is totally fine.

Ok, I have thought more about this enhanced highway assist feature. It's cool, but what is the practical use of the notion that you can take your hands off the wheel, but your eyes have to be looking forward? What is the real use case of that? If I have to keep my eyes looking forward, why...

This does look like a solid release. One thing I do find interesting, as someone who (happily) came over from a Tesla is how they are prioritizing software features. There are some fundamentals to me that are kind of table stakes that they seem to be deferring for other things (like highway...

Rivian Tracker is showing 2025.06...anyone have it?? https://riviantrackr.com/history/

This is FANTASTIC! Must listen.

Me too! Thanks for the details. I am waiting on a R1S. Well better that we get it fixed prior to delivery.
