  1. Sharing trails with ICE rigs: good, bad, or neutral?

    My usual group is all ICE vehicles. But I agree etiquette or otherwise is all dependent on the people/drivers rather than the vehicles themselves. I try my best not to burden my fellow ICE friends so I usually leave home a good couple hours earlier than the rest to allow plenty of time to...
  2. Off-roading with 22" Range wheels on R1S Dual Standard?

    In general i think a trail with 1-2 rating would be okay for 22s. But yeah you wouldn't want to air down too much on those as there's minimal sidewall, maybe down to 40psi? Do you have a spare? Are you taking satellite or does the trail have cell service? As far as locking diffs, I don't...
  3. EV Play Preorder - Now Live (and working!)

    Are there any plans to intercept the signal for rear display and allow in motion video there?
  4. Las Vegas Collision Experience

    I do... but I thought that it was constantly overwriting content if not saved? I'll have to take a look at it when I can. Not that it has much bearing on this case anymore since they admitted to the fault, but would be good to know if there's a next time. (hopefully not)
  5. Las Vegas Collision Experience

    No gear guard didn't save video ?. So the impact actually severed the coaxial cable for the front camera which caused all other vehicle cameras to not respond either. I would think it would only affect the front camera, but for some reason none of the cameras were working ?‍♂️. Not sure if the...
  6. Las Vegas Collision Experience

    Technically its all the stuff underneath it. Body shop said the exterior just rebounded exceptionally well. Apparently a lot of sensitive electronics are mounted directly behind that front grille area.
  7. Las Vegas Collision Experience

    Couple months back, my R1S was in a collision while picking up my kids from school, parallel parked on the road. We were walking back to the R1S when the car that was in front of me reversed into mine; she thought she was in drive and reversed with some considerable force (based on the damage...
  8. 12Kw generator

    Now you got me thinking if I can semi-permanently mount a gen under the frunk if I disassemble the gen and tetris the components more efficiently. ? Get rid of the frame and build a custom mount. Get rid of the small 12v on the gen and use Rivian's 12v. Minimize the bulky control panel with a 3D...
  9. Rivian Dashboard for Upcoming Longterm Phantom Drain Test

    I think I recall some members on the forum experimenting with disconnecting the 12v / hooking up a low amp battery tender to 12v for long storage to battle vampire drain. Not sure what the conclusion of that test was. 10x worse than Model Y is substantial! I would ask if we have a Rivian...
  10. Mobile Service Invoice - Full of Lies

    Feel like this thread has run its course, but as someone that's been a Dealership tech for years, I'll shed a bit of light to what may have happened. Techs work under flat rate, which basically means we get paid for the predetermined time of a service regardless how long it takes in real life...
  11. 2025 Gen 2 RIS HVAC Noise is Loud

    Can't speak for Gen2's but Gen1 HVAC screams also.
  12. Gen 1 Vampire Drain (Possibly) Solved (or Hacked)

    Anyone know how effective "vehicle shipping mode" is in maintaining SOC? Probably not as effective as trickle charger but curious to know the difference.
  13. MORR rescues a high-centered R1T

    Maybe he tried sport mode hoping the suspension would pull up the wheels and then teeter it off? Just trying to give him the benefit of the doubt. But I think we know that the suspension doesn't actually pull in the wheels at sport mode. Then again, owner does say in the video he's only had...
  14. Anyone in Vegas have a rivian Jack puck

    I have some you can use. DM me if you still need it.
  15. Roadtripping With an Extra Set of Wheels?

    I second that. Just deal with it and drive on the AT's. We all do it.... if you wanted a dedicated set of off road tires, might as well get M/Ts. Afterall, the "All" part in All-Terrain is what makes it road worthy. But maybe I'm missing something here... What's the problem in road tripping...
  16. Solar Panel for Overlanding

    I've seen this ad around. I need more details though. As far as I know, you need a battery or super capacitor of sorts that the solar panels can charge into, and then the batteries will discharge to charge the vehicle. Pretty sure the charging of batteries and discharging of batteries has to be...
  17. Solar Panel for Overlanding

    Nice setup! I'm trying my best to follow along here, so please correct me if I'm wrong somewhere... So you got 3x solar panels, each capable of producing 100w each, so thats 300w DC in total flowing into charge controller. The charge controller regulates charge to 2x LiFePo batteries (12.5v x...
  18. Any leaks around 2024.15 yet?

    I'm on 2024.11.02. Haven't really noticed any faults on maps or otherwise. Spotify playlists take about 1.5 seconds longer to load, but I think I can live with it ?
  19. [Question] Planning a trip to Big Bear, CA and wanting to take Robin (my R1S) offroading. Looking for recomendations.

    Butler Peak Fire Lookout looks to be a level 2 rated trail, easy work for the R1S. In terms of charging, looks like there are couple of 50-62 kw chargers in Bigbear/Fawnskin area. Not sure if you're planning on camping or not, but either way you should be fine just charging up at one of the...
