  1. Moving from Ford Lightning to Dual R1T….a few questions

    I had a Pro and a Lariat. 1) Everything. The car will walk you through a lot of it vs the Lightning leaves you to figure it all out. 2) Deployment is spread out but we’re talking days to weeks not months like Ford. Some randomness to it, priority given to subscribers for production...
  2. 20" Inch Switching tire brand and size with full size spare tire

    If you're switching diameters, you really should change the spare too. At a full inch difference, I personally wouldn't ride on a different spare but it can still work in a pinch but it'll affect things like the traction control in thinking you've got one wheel spinning faster than the others...
  3. Battery Report after 3 years / 50K miles (R1S Launch Edition)

    The EPA range is based on all purpose mode on the 21" Range wheels and tires. When you go to the 20" ATs that EPA range drops to ~274-289 depending on configuration. In the same manner, going to 22" on the OEM Pirelli Zeros drops it to EPA 299 miles, but going to the OEM Pirelli MS increases...
  4. R1S Cargo Box Choices

    I have an INNO 865 but not an R1S. I've fit it on a set of Rhino bars on a F150 Lightning, Yakima bars on an EV9, as well as the OEM bars on a R1T. I've also used a BRM 320. Whatcha wanna know?
  5. Rivian Assistant reading text

    When you get a text, you’ll see an icon on the bottom left of your driver display. Click the right button on the left scroll wheel to have it read.
  6. DIY Gen1 R1T rear bumper camera replacement

    Why did you do this to me? Now I need to buy another camera and see if I can somehow rig it to run 35ft to the back of my trailer when it’s in tow. It’s a feature I miss having that I had on my Lightning.
  7. Rivian took over my Tesla Supercharging session and charged me more than double?

    Sigh, these are some of the problems with the way things are developed - I bet you don’t develop payment systems. The supercharger itself doesn’t need the membership information, the payment system does. It doesn’t even need to membership details, only to validate eligibility of the membership...
  8. Rivian took over my Tesla Supercharging session and charged me more than double?

    It's programming...and they already have some basis for it. If you go into your Rivian app you'll see a section for "Charging Account" It lets you associate your ChargePoint account. If they wanted to make the effort, it could very easily be adapted to link to various providers, including...
  9. Rivian took over my Tesla Supercharging session and charged me more than double?

    Idk what to tell you. Perhaps we have different methods then or the fact that we're on opposite coasts, cellular networks, my build is earlier than yours, etc. but it happens to me quite frequently, All my other vehicles Plug and Charge can either be disabled or specific networks can be...
  10. Rivian took over my Tesla Supercharging session and charged me more than double?

    This happens to me all the time. It's an annoyance that Rivian doesn't give us the membership discount and then it becomes a juggling act of trying to prevent the truck from overriding the Tesla app initialization. I found the best way to do this is to simply remove the payment method from the...
  11. Need confirmation of 3rd party internet connectivity

    My ADHD is preventing me from following the super long post.. But the features are behind a paywall. Putting the car on WiFi - without isolation, does not enable it.
  12. Why is the R1S so cramped?

    The paper specs don’t tell the whole story. Having owned an EV9 I can say that it’s significantly easier to access and FEELS larger and more comfortable in the 3rd row for an adult. Having owned a Model X, I can say it’s the opposite and feels significantly tighter than the R1S.
  13. New Jersey FS: 1EV Flip Out Bed Extender

    Thank you for the call out - local pickup is in Central NJ.
  14. R2 rear wiper in action -- potential issues or FUD?

    The wiper goes swish swish and not swoosh swoosh. So it’s swishing when it should be swooshing. Ideally it wouldn’t be just a swish or just a swoosh but a swish swoosh, but every 3rd swoosh should be a swish. So then it’s a swoosh swish. I mean come on, it’s right there.
  15. Symphonic Carbon Fiber Roof for Rivian R1T -- by EV Smart Truck

    Don’t mind him, the weight savings matters for me and potentially others. 22lbs is 22lbs. For some of us, we’re towing rigs and payload is on our minds. Does it matter enough to get me to run out and replace my intact glass roof? No. But when it breaks, I’m more likely to pick this up than my...
  16. R1 and R2 crossbars not compatible (don't fit) - now officially confirmed by Rivian

    Very possible it’s another transition. The R2 is cheaper and Gen2.5 will be released to match, along with the steering wheel haptics, etc in the next year. More scaling.
  17. Don’t buy a Rivian and why?

    Dear Mr. Long Island. You live in that really red part with >5000 people per square mile. There are many of us that live in that yellow or greenish area, so yes the boondocks for you. Unfortunately, even if you live in another red spot, say - Minneapolis, your service center options are...
  18. Don’t buy a Rivian and why?

    This. I sold my 1st Rivian because service was 1.5-3hr/ea way. Needing to engage service for something simple was just dreadful and basically required me to burn a vacation day. I ended up selling mine. Fast forward 2 years and the service is now a 30mim drive for me. I don’t mind spinning up...
