  1. Tesla FSD Full Self Driving & Rivian ?

    I listened to the Tesla earnings call too, and the comment was a major auto manufacturer. Rivian is not a major auto manufacturer. They are niche at best today. Would not surprise me if it's Ford. They really don't have anything going

  2. Rivian R1S questions.

    Do you not have SCE-TOU EV rate? https://www.sce.com/residential/rates/electric-vehicle-plans During the summer, its $0.26 and in winter, its $0.24 per kWh for off-Peak and Super Off-Peak. I have SDG&E and my super off-peak rate is $0.14/kWh from midnight to 6.00AM.

  3. What drive mode for SJ/Bay Area Hwy 17 to Santa Cruz in R1S?

    I've done the drive couple of times from Santa Clara to Santa Cruz on the 17. Using the AP, stiff, low works. Sports stiff low is better. Since Rivian has introduced 3 settings for suspension, try using moderate (mid) setting, the next time you drive with the family and see if they even...

  4. Tesla recalls all 3,878 Cybertrucks over faulty accelerator pedal

    Tesla has confirmed that those numbers are deliveries. (https://electrek.co/2024/04/19/tesla-recalls-cybertruck-defective-accelerator-4000-deliveries/), Recall affects delivered vehicles. Undelivered vehicles require changes/fixes, not recalls, I believe. It does not surprise me since I see...

  5. Definitive best R1S all weather mats?

    I have a set of Tuxmats for my Tesla. Unfortunately for R1S, it wasn't available at the time we took delivery so I bought LinerX. Tuxmats are better in my opinion. Tuxmats now makes cargo liner and seat back protectors for 2nd and 3rd row. I probably will get a set and replace my 3DMaxpyder...

  6. No software update this month?

    Just want to remind you guys that two firmwares ago, it bricked many R1 vehicles. Those that didn't rush wasn't affected, as Rivian released fixed version a week or two later. The rollout provides people and Rivian how the new SW is working in the real world use. So don't get too eager about...

  7. Definitive best R1S all weather mats?

    You can shake it off after wash, leave it out in the sun to dry in few minutes or just towel dry. Does not retain water. Its synthetic rubber back with textured facing so it will not stay wet. As a side note, there are bibs that has a trough to catch falling items that you can put on kids...

  8. Noise from the rear cargo area hatch doors

    some small critter taken a nest inside that gets thrown around when you move it...jk :)

  9. Rivian service every bit as bad as people say

    There is a difference between being curious and attentive versus actual work being done correctly and timely. Many service center actions require driving the vehicle, which one doesn't know until leaving the service center after the appointment. If the problem still exists, the only recourse...

  10. Navigation system issues…

    Agree that it needs work all around. That said, likes of your future in-laws, and other new EV owners really don't need plugshare or ABRP to overwhelm them in the beginning. All they really need to know from the nav is how far is the destination and charger locations along the way. Doesn't...

  11. Any clever idea to overcome no Android Auto / Apple Carplay?

    You can connect an iPad to the Rivian hotspot, and if you use an iPhone, you can make/take calls and text/iMessage/Facetime on iPad and iPhone on the same network (Rivian Hotspot). Its LTE and has better coverage than 5G, albeit bit slower - not slow enough that buffer runs out and lags during...

  12. Very stupid question but I have to ask.

    So true. We do live in the auto capital of the world, in terms of what people own and drive. We have a white R1S, because I didn't like the contrast that the front light bar and the headlights created against a dark body. I preferred the more monochromatic look. That said, there are so many...

  13. What is the best cargo liner to get for R1S .

    I sent an email to Tuxmats and they replied quickly. The seat back protectors have velcro tabs on all corners (as shown) and they provide adhesive-based velcro to place onto the. back of the seats that attaches to the seat back mat. Also asked about the lower gate protector. They are in the...

  14. Very stupid question but I have to ask.

    How did they find out? Because you informed them? If so, perhaps that's the reason why they look and take notice. Vast majority of people just see Rivian logo or don't even notice that its a Rivian.

  15. Michigan 2023 R1S Launch Edition/Glacier White/Ocean Coast/22” Sport Brights/9k miles - $78,500

    Have to ask, what countermeasures to quite it down??? Thanks

  16. Can't imagine a worse car-buying experience

    This is such a hard thing. because people have very different expectations. Some what Kidd Gove treatment with red carpet, others just want to sign and go. Most are in between. The thing I appreciate the most, regardless of the people interactions, is avoiding the entire haggling and talk...

  17. Setting Radius of Home Location

    I don't think there is a way to specify the radius. You can perhaps drive to the middle of where you want the center of the circle to be and set that to be home in the navigation.

  18. How do you handle texts in your R1?

    Siri reads it to me and I reply via voice using Siri on iPhone.

  19. R1S Spare Tire?!

    yeah, but spare tire compartment is almost cramped as the economy seats on an airplane. Can't stretch your legs :)

  20. Shipment from rivian? Tabs or charger adapter?

    Don't know if WA works the same way CA does but in CA, it's not the DMV or the state that sends out the plates anymore. It's done by the dealers/distributors. CA allocates number (quantity) of plates to them, then they assign to the buyers and report back to DMV. Both Tesla and Rivian sent my...
