  1. Why is the R1S so cramped?

    Spot on about the wheelbase. Making the SUV on the longer truck platform would probably solve the legroom issue, but it would also make it a nightmare to park in standard garages. It’s always a trade-off between cabin space and daily maneuverability.
  2. The Final Summer Kickoff Speculation Thread: What do you think is coming in R1 Refresh?

    That would be a perfect scenario for road trip season. Let's hope your speculation turns out to be true!
  3. Drunk Driver accident, please advise

    Even though you're in NYC and this happened a while ago, this might help anyone else dealing with insurance adjusters trying to dodge a payout. I live out in Colorado, and when a drunk driver hit my neighbor here, the local cops similarly dropped the ball on the breathalyzer. What saved him...
  4. Quad Launch Edition welcome kit

    Completely agree with you. Early adopters usually get a unique deal that makes the initial wait worth it.
  5. R1S - Underrated Driver's Car (Rivian Driving Dynamics Appreciation Thread)

    Interesting trick for the tight spots, but that sudden change in handling on the main road sounds a bit sketchy.
  6. Introductions & Welcome Thread 👋

    Glad to be here! Looking forward to connecting with everyone and sharing experiences.
  7. Feature Request: Activate Side Mirror Flood Lights in Off-Road Modes — Rivian, Please Read

    This makes total sense. If you are in a dedicated off-road mode, DOT regulations shouldn't matter since the vehicle knows it isn't on a public road. Having that extra side illumination for tight trail junctions or campsite setups would be a huge safety upgrade. Hopefully the software team...
  8. First time helping a stuck driver

    Nice work getting him out! Pulling something that heavy can be tricky if it's dug in deep, but these trucks have more than enough torque to handle it easily. Glad there was no damage to your rig. It's a great feeling when you get to use that capability to help someone out.
  9. Drunk Driver accident, please advise

    Found your thread while looking for some DriveCam help and those photos of the cans on the road caught my eye. It reminded me of a mess I went through in Colorado when I got pulled over in Breckenridge after dinner. The officer claimed I failed the roadside balance test even though I was fine...
  10. Please Help, My R1S is Bleeding Kilowatts

    That trip meter calculation looks way off if your actual projected range isn't dropping. If you lose 5 kWh on screen but the battery percentage stays steady, it sounds like a tracking bug in the software rather than actual vampire drain. The trip meter might just be miscalculating background...
  11. Car & Driver - We Figured Out How to Trick a Rivian R1T into Carolina Squatting

    Car and Driver must have been desperate for content that day. Using Camp Mode on a steep hill just to force a "squat" is hilarious but ridiculous. The truck is just trying to do its job and keep the cabin flat. It's a funny workaround, but calling it a deliberate hack is a stretch.
  12. Driver seat won’t adjust automatically for Owner setting

    That sounds annoying, especially since the truck recognizes you. If it knows who you are but won't move, it feels like a glitch linking the profile to the motor execution. Have you tried deleting your profile and setting it up again? Sometimes resetting the phone link forces a proper sync.
