Exact same for me when I moved to Rivian insurance from Progressive.

It's not laggy on Gen 1.

So far I've only tested in my apartment parking garage (which doesn't have WiFi) with two bars of LTE, and I haven't seen a delay more than two seconds.

Absofreakinlutely. I just installed 2026.15.0 on my 2023 Gen 1 R1S and I'm so happy that I can send text messages now - and include my ETA in a message - without taking my eyes off the road.

I'm hopeful that messaging to group texts will be supported in the future.

I believe they don't know exactly when and how that damage happened as much as I believe it was caused by a pile of snow/ice. The only plausible part of their story is they've been driving around with the damage unchecked for a couple of years. Absolutely. 100% this. I wouldn't buy any used...

In May 2025 I towed an empty car hauler from SLC to San Diego, then back to SLC with a vintage Ford pickup behind my Gen 1 R1S Quad. Trip and trailer/hitch details and some pics are here. (My logic for towing an empty hauler to CA is here.) I wasn't smart enough to capture the results of the...

In case you’re wondering... there’s a reason I towed an empty trailer to California to pick up the Ford. There weren’t any suitable trailers in San Diego available for a one-way rental to SLC, and I wasn’t going to shell out $8k for a new trailer and then deal with selling it after the trip. My...

Just my $.02 and YMMV... use a WDH and a compatible trailer. I’ve never towed with a U-Haul transporter, but I have towed an empty 20-foot MAXX-D H5X trailer with a Curt TruTrack 2P 10K WDH from Salt Lake City to San Diego, then back to Salt Lake City with a 1974 F-250 Ranger behind my Gen 1...

My Utah Express Pass lives directly below the rearview mirror and has worked flawlessly for me. It also has a handy sliding tab to easily deactivate it when I've got passengers riding with me.

I use Home Assistant as the backbone of my smart home, so the Home Assistant integration for Rivian (Unofficial) is perfect for me. I set up a basic dashboard with several pages of the metrics provided by the integration. It's totally free to install and use, and all the data is saved locally so...

I didn’t get the text, but two weeks ago I got a call from Rivian Service saying they wanted to replace the 12V in my single-battery Gen1 R1S Qaud “as a precaution”. Mobile service came out the next day and replaced it. I was a little surprised to get the call, since it had been replaced once...

You are not.

It's not a glitch. It's working as designed. My 2023 Gen 1 does it occasionally. FYI, typing the first sentence from your post into Google would've gotten you the full answer... This behavior is a known, intentional feature of the Rivian R1S designed to manage cabin comfort and vehicle health...

I love that idea and, candidly, hadn't thought of it before since all of my past tire changes have been off-road and I just used rocks. I'm gonna order some chocks today.

I carry nine items in the Rivian at all times to deal with tire troubles: Boulder Tools heavy duty tire repair kit Rivian compact spare tire Rivian aux air compressor kit ARB heavy duty jack base Big Red 10-ton bottle jack Jack Pucks magnetic puck kit Craftsman 1/2" drive 22mm deep impact...

Admittedly, it's the epitome of a first world problem, but I've come to realize that not having physical controls for temp up/down and vents open/close/direction is stupidly annoying.
