re: carplay - before I got my R1T I was extremely disappointed it wasn't available... after having my truck for almost two years, I really prefer Rivian's integrated nav / music / etc and enjoy not having to deal with Carplay connection issues all my other cars had Now if they make those...

I love my truck and all the new updates and I'm looking forward to an upgraded model at some point in the future, but it feels very off-brand and weird for Rivian to lie about the gen 1's interior lighting ability. I'd be happy with a permanent halloween 2022 option (red lights and lock...

I would. Later builds are likely a little tighter than my early build. Wind noise is my only complaint. If getting quick maintenance work done was important though, hard no. I haven't had to do anything critical but the 3 minor cosmetic issues I've had them look at has taken 1-3 months to get...

My partner and I are so hyped for the R3X holy shit

I guess I'm in the minority that like the idea of a carabiner key - I just wish the Rivian implementation had a screwgate or some other locking mechanism so that it was actually usable

I had no idea the Forks supercharger is open for non-Teslas - I just checked the Tesla app and it shows up! The only one in the region ?

Just give me back the wolf howl / owl hoot and red interior lights for halloween please ?

I'll keep this post in mind when my tread wears. If you've seen a red R1T in west seattle, that's probably me ;) I've seen a good number of trucks here lately

Do you use the Rivian nav to route to the next charger? Battery preconditioning kicks in 30-60 minutes before arrival and I usually immediately get 200+ kw seconds after plugging in. Makes a big difference.

I got hit by that clown when I lived in Texas - he also didn't have insurance. Those a$$clowns don't care about following the rules ?‍♂️

At 200kW, it would take almost 24 hours to charge at home on a 40A circuit, sheesh

Every time I see a Chevy Avalanche, my brain pauses for a few seconds trying to understand "why"

Sometimes it takes 5-10 seconds from the time I press the keyfob till the vehicle unlocks. I'm standing there like an idiot next to it, girlfriend holding grocery bags on the other side, waiting for the car to unlock. I thought keyfob unlocking a car was a solved problem, but it seems like...

Back of napkin math estimates if Rivian has 20,000 cars produced consuming 1 kwh/day just to exist, that's about the same CO2 emissions as putting 3-500ish gas cars on the road (counter to their ethos). I still don't understand why a sleeping car needs so much more power than a phone just for...

I would have switched to a dual motor, lower specced version (that still includes nearly all the useful features) to hit the 70-80k mark

I had the same thing happen with my Ducati. It just flipped for no reason

Interesting, calculates to about 65 watts to maintain standby. I'm really curious what the car is doing to require what's basically a laptop running full-time. I know there are various sensors and low-power radios running but these generally don't require a whole lot of energy

OR EVEN BIGGER... https://bowlus.com/volterra/

They sent me a second set of crossbars but ... uh I don't think that was intended as a gift

I prefer the Rivian pedestrian sound 1000x to Tesla. From my inside my bedroom I hear my neighbor's Tesla every morning - the hovercar sounding whir. Maybe it's cute the first time you notice it but not the thousandth time, it's just stupid. In comparison, I like the nothingness sound of the...
