  1. Rivian Scale Model Cars Coming Soon ?

    @Therivianguy Y'all got a shop or some interface for these yet? I would love to jump in for an R1T and R1S, just need to know how :)
  2. Lights flickering when charging R1T

    FWIW, I have had this problem since bring home my R1T last year. My electrician confirmed that while a nuisance it didn’t appear to be any kind of major issue. Most likely noise from the Rivian onboard charger. this is the same with gen 2 R1S as well.
  3. CarKey - How To?

    Yeah, I assumed the google cast stuff was waiting for Connect+. But I would have thought CarKey was available.
  4. CarKey - How To?

    Anyone figured out how to enable CarKey on the Gen 2s yet?
  5. Gen2 R1 wireless charging pad improvements? Swappable into Gen1?

    Just picked up our Gen2. The wireless charger is much better. It is still worse than a MagSafe.
  6. Tesla Supercharging (NACS Charging) Now Available in Rivian App! Step By Step Instructions

    If I were at Rivian, i'd charge $200 for adapters this year and say "but everyone gets them for free next year." Extra revenue and helps to let people self-prioritize.
  7. Greenridge State Forest Novice Off Roading Part 3 Mar 22

    Was sad to miss part 2 but excited for round three. Blocked off work, planned out the trip from NoVA, lookin' forward to seeing folks.
  8. I added CarPlay to my R1T

    Got it - thanks! I didn’t realize it had speakers itself! That’s probably good enough for podcasts, too. I don’t suppose it registers as an EV for routing?
  9. I added CarPlay to my R1T

    So for audio / calls, are you going iPhone -> CP Unit -> FM -> Rivian, or do you flip back to the BT connection? If it's the former, how's that experience like? I found a 12v plug under my dash so this may be a weekend pickup for me!
  10. Front Bumper sensor "popped in"

    How'd you turn off the sensor?!
  11. Front Bumper sensor "popped in"

    Anyone else had this? Randomly noticed that my front sensor alert was going off at weird times, and we then noticed that one of the four ultrasound sensors on the front bumper had slid inwards and was now resting nestled in and... detecting the bumper as an object to avoid. It's not a major...
  12. ? Rivian Adopts Tesla NACS Standard! (Adapters in 2024, Standard Charging Port in 2025)

    Not sure if NACS supports bidirectional or not, but the email says nothing about replacing the port, just offering an adapter. Either way:
  13. Good electrician recommendations for EVSE install in DMV?

    Not sure they operate in Maryland, but i've used Absolute Electric for everything since my Model S 14--50 install back in 2016. They're phenomenal.
  14. Question for Virginia residents - safety inspections?

    State Inspection stations must provide inspections to any vehicle. That’s why Tesla doesn’t do ā€˜em - they don’t want to do them for other cars - and also why you can bring your Rivian to any place that offers inspections. (Same goes for motorcycles, which is how i learned this; It also means...
  15. Let’s talk tunes -- How do you listen to music in your Rivian?

    Ended up paying for Spotify. I don’t like it but the audio quality is so much better than Bluetooth it’s silly. Podcasts via Overcast on Bluetooth are fine. But while I still prefer Apple Music, and that’s what i use outside the truck, the audio quality is just too good to use a non-native app...
  16. Rated X: Full Frontal Cybertruck

    Probably, yes. It's also why I'm interested in the Canoo - similarly, they're trying something new, and weird. The Canoo is probably a more functional kind of weird. (And man, it'd be easy to get the dogs in that.)
  17. Rivian vs Tesla vs Frigidaire?! (Average annual electricity consumption)

    My EVSE is, and has been for six years, the most expensive thing in my house from a pure kWh perspective. The AC in the summer is close, because it runs for large chunks of the day and I limit charging to 12-5am. Since my R1T came home, it's consumed 757 kWh. My fridge is barely at 100. (my...
  18. Rated X: Full Frontal Cybertruck

    Okay, i'll shove my head in the lion's mouth here: I love how it looks. I love how absolutely, completely stupid it looks. I love that it's massively different, and that, hopefully, it's different enough to encourage other automakers to get weird, because everything that's ugly and weird and...
  19. Ev apps? What do you use?

    Because they are not run by Rivian, but instead by Electrify America. I've had a Model S since 2016. In addition to the base Tesla (now, Rivian) app, I'd go for Plugshare (still ugly, still incredibly useful) and ABRP (though, yes, more features are being rolled into G/A Maps, but having a...
  20. Tesla to open 20% of US Superchargers to all EVs by end of 2024, qualifying company for share of billions in federal dollars

    20% of Superchargers is still more than zero. I don't care if this is a compliance move or not, this is awesome news.
