  1. Rivian Assistant Conspiracy

    Tangentially related, but I would love voice options for RA. Sam Elliot and Morgan Freeman.
  2. Rival: 2026 BMW iX3 reviews are impressive... R2 has its work cut out

    interior fit and finish looks nice. Given BMW pricing in general, my guess is high 60s out the door for their mid level.
  3. Matte wrap gang! Let's see photos of your matte Rivian R1T & R1S

    Stek Matte PPF with XPEL ceramic tint install around and roof including windshield.
  4. Update: S.O.S. Need technical help with battery temp.

    Sorry about the truck but the deer lost its life. I hope you weren’t speeding. But when going though forests at early and late day always best to go slower than posted limit. The deer belong there. At least show some remorse. The animals are part of what makes getting to nature worthwhile.
  5. New 2025 R1T DM Performance Owner

    Congrates What are you naming the Storm Trooper?
  6. Planning my first R1T roadtrip – tried using Chat GPT for help (surprisingly useful!)

    Did ChatG give you charging stops, locations, time to charge and level?
  7. Cleaning and Maintaining Factory Stealth XPEL Wrap?

    If you go through a car wash it will void the warranty. Don’t. also the chemicals used in a car wash are very harsh I wouldn’t. You do you. You just spent a lot on the vehicle and your going to beat the crapmout of the paint, trim, and film.
  8. Cleaning and Maintaining Factory Stealth XPEL Wrap?

    Apply only pH neutral foam or shampoo for PPF. This is a good choice: KOCHCHEMIE Gentle Snow Foam. A foam cleaner will need a spray gun though. I would also go with the 2 bucket system. One for soap one for rinse to avoid creating swirls from dirty towels and sponges like this one: Optimum...
  9. Lifetime XM Subscription doesn't transfer to Rivian

    Try calling back and do some negotiating. The original plan never had apps. I never was able to use the app until I got the Rivian. I still have the original Sat radio service on my 20 year old G35. I just checked and they coded me to the Platinum plan but flagged it with the lifetime...
  10. Lifetime XM Subscription doesn't transfer to Rivian

    I also have the same x the lifetime subscription is only for true satellite. The Rivian uses an app via data from the cell service. It’s not satellite. I got a deal to add app access for 2.99 a month. The lifetime subscription predates apps.
  11. Preview of new Energy app in 2025.18 + revived talk of V2V / V2H bi-directional charging

    Wish it included battery temps here as well. I know it’s on the other screen but that data seems relevant here. One more wish is it included the service mode data such as Voltage from the charger and voltage at the vehicle. They could have geeked out more. This is basically pulling in the same...
  12. How can I reduce phantom drain?

    I lose less than 1% a day with the below. I leave WiFi off. Other than updates it’s not needed. I turn off motion detection but I do have all other Gear Guard on. I turn off hotspot. That’s it. My phone and go. Are far enough away it doesn’t turn on and off often or ever unless I mean to...
  13. Vehicle Alarm

    I took my Gen 1 R1T in for a few things, one was the alarm (lights flashing and horn) would never go off. Gear guard would take video but even if I had the phone and fob far away and simulated my own break-in, the alarm never sounded. The technician is saying when you use phone as a key, it...
  14. Reminder: Rivian Promised Level 3 "Eyes Off the Road" Autonomy on Gen 1

    I take it as whoever wrote that on Rivian didnt use the appropriate definitions. Eyes off would require some sort of cabin monitoring and never recall seeing that come up in the early literature and I booked mine back in early 2022. Your link also mentions LIDAR which none of us have. I hope...
  15. Building a new house - what would you ensure was part of the plan?

    1. Postures flooring 2. Wide mount garage door 3. Slat wall storage 4. Tire rack to swap out winter and non winter tires
  16. Parts SC replaced to solve my clicks, creaks and rattles

    I have a 2024 gen1. A low speeds over speed bumps hear clanging have had SC look and they said all is good just the way the off-road oriented suspension responds. The suspension isn’t raising or lowering on ride height just it’s natural compliance at low speeds for speed bumps.
  17. Parts SC replaced to solve my clicks, creaks and rattles

    Do you hear any more clicks or creaks after all this?
  18. App says Repace 12v Battery. Bought the R1T 5 months ago

    The best low power mode for long term I find is that transport mode. Shipped my truck cross-country in a trailer and in 5 days lost 1% charge. I was able to track the truck and had mobile app control. This was before gear guard. Service mode will disable much of the intel from the truck and...
  19. Rivian Owner Age Demographics Poll

    Middle-aged dudes with disposable income. Seems about right. The R2 will open up their buy-box alot. My wife loves the truck, but loving it enough to drive it, and borrow it is different than wanting one herself. The R2 should appeal more to your folks on pricing, and others on just looking...
