  1. Wassym Bensaid DECODER interview: AI Rivian Assistant, Apple CarPlay, VW Joint Venture

    In my Subaru outback, my Android Auto only uses the map-window rectangle on the infotainment screen (maybe half of the whole thing). I have a section above it and a larger section below it that are all multi-purpose touchscreen windows, displaying car info, climate controls, etc. "Every pixel"...
  2. Some people's kids...

    I do scan the 1-stars, for commonly mentioned items, like, "hey, all these 1-stars are complaining about the same exact thing." Even when the average is 4.6 stars, if all 20 1-stars complain of a specific defect or that it fell apart after 1 month and they won't replace or respond, or that it...
  3. Wishlist of small things that Rivian can improve (that bug you)

    Do you have the "re-lock after 2 minutes" option selected? If you don't actually open a door that option will re-lock the vehicle. Apparently it doesn't consider the tailgate or tonneau a "door."
  4. electrek: Electricity is about to become the new base currency and China figured it out [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS]

    In which modes of hydroelectric generation is water wasted? There are turbines in rivers & oceans harnessing the water's gravity- or tide-fed kinetic energy. These are not wasting water. I'm struggling to think of hydro applications that actually waste water.
  5. Wishlist of small things that Rivian can improve (that bug you)

    Ahh, now I know why my wife and I rarely seem to experience the laggy Paak scenario. We both have the Galaxy S25 Plus 5G--fat radios FTW!
  6. Wishlist of small things that Rivian can improve (that bug you)

    Yes. I think they should implement settings that allow the users to configure NFC with the PaaK setup as well. Example: The R1T is my wife's daily driver and our camper tow vehicle. My daily is a Subaru Outback. I get home and walk up the driveway, Truck awakens and unlocks, bathing me in a...
  7. Report a physically damaged RAN charger?

    Uh, see, over on Reddit, we use the slash-s (/s) at the end of a--less sincere remark--to indicate sarcasm. Otherwise people think you're serious and really will "follow your advice." ETA: Are you serious? Like, is that an actual option?
  8. New Rivian Ad -- Real Rivian Adventures: Milk Run

    I don't know that this is a "good advertising message," but it's definitely realistic. Rich people have been buying their way out of chaos and discomfort for centuries. Even in the days of horse-drawn vehicles, the wealthy had plush, enclosed carriages, while the less well off had open buggies...
  9. Bought things for our 7-day-old R1T (and an R1S!)

    Yep. We got them to send a return label, but it's been some time and it hasn't arrived. Need to remind them I guess.
  10. Action Button on iPhone can be set to lock / unlock the Rivian

    Hmm. Wondering if Android on my Samsung S25 Ultra might have a similar feature.
  11. Bought things for our 7-day-old R1T (and an R1S!)

    So we've been enjoying our new truck, and wanted to spend the $500 of points we got for making a deposit on a new vehicle on our Demo Day. So I added three things to the shopping cart. Apparently one of those was an All-Weather Floor mat set..... for an R1S! I tried to cancel the order within...
  12. Save the Bog Frog - We already saved the Owl....

    I'm sure licensing that from Disney Corp would be super-easy! ;-)
  13. Does auto ride height work for you?

    How does standard height put less ear on the tires than low. And if that's true, then wouldn't max height be even less wear?
