We will need a report when you are done with that trip. There is a Rivian charger in Erie if that is on your route.

We have stopped at the New River Gorge bridge a bunch of times. Whenever we travel south that is on our route. One of these days we need to get down to the river.

We saw some serious looking hikers, looks like that would be awesome. We walked around for an hour or so and got back on the road.

My wife and I recently took Edison, our 2025 R1S Trimotor, on a coast to coast round trip with a short stop at the Grand Canyon. We left our home on the USA's north coast to visit family on the east coast. On the way back we stopped at the Pennsylvania Grand Canyon near Wellsboro, PA. Total...

Now when I drive my wife's CX-5 I have to remember that the vehicle won't slow down without the brakes

I was a first time EV owner with an R1 about a year ago. I was worried about the one pedal thing before took delivery. By the time I got the vehicle home I was used to it 100%. This may sound odd, but I found it to be a lot like my hydrostatic lawnmower. Push down to go faster, lift a little to...

I updated yesterday. Drove around some today, 30 miles or so. Everything I tried worked fine...UHF, Texting with punctuation, no issues.

Understandably the "room" discussion focuses on front to back legroom. But one of the things I really like about my R1S is the left to right room in the drivers seat. Specifically, I despise large consoles that eliminate the space I want to use for my right knee. Even many largish vehicles I...

I am retried now, but when I was working I was a road warrior. Grand Cherokee with a 25 gallon tank that I would drive full to near empty without stopping, often well over 500 miles. Before that an A4 with a 6 speed that had almost the same range. So an EV would not have worked for me then...

The brake fluid flush thing is extremely important if you plan to use your brakes hard. The water in the brake fluid gets hot and boils, putting air in the Iines and risking brake failure, or at least extreme performance degradation. When I was doing track events I changed brake fluid at least...

I have seen similar performance in my limited use of UHF on straight interstates. The phantom braking thing is a problem, especially when it auto brake checks the car behind you. I found it works better on a rural two lane.

Sorry for the hijack.

In my garage door setup, here is a picture of the part that can scratch the hatch. I like that "pad it" idea, so I just zip tied a piece of rubber hose on to it. I have had other family members open the garage door from the outside while I was inside with the hatch open. Lots of ways this can...

Pad has a chance, good idea. Removal is only an option if you don't want to have an automatic garage door anymore.

The Infinity Shield is an interesting setup, thanks for the info. It would not necessarily help in my particular situation, as my vehicle can be fully inside the garage with the open hatch also fully inside the garage, and the door closing hardware will still contact the outside of the hatch.

It's not about dropping the tailgate with something in the way. It's about having the tailgate open in the garage and closing the garage door with the tailgate open. If your garage ceiling is relatively low, then the curved bracket that connects the chain to the door drags across the outside of...

I have done this to some of my previous vehicles, but so far not to the Rivian. I sympathize with your situation.

Yep. All I could think about was the line from the Godfather. But it was in NY state, so we left the guns at home.

The shells and filling to make 1,000 cannolis for the church spaghetti dinner.
