  1. Driving on wet roads in conserve mode

    Great point on the torque issue- mine was repaired a few weeks back and issues remain. And appreciate everyone's comments on tire rotation/wear. I keep saying to myself- 'while you're going to pay a ton for tires, you're saving on brake pads/calibers and fuel (ish) costs.' Doubt those offset but...
  2. Driving on wet roads in conserve mode

    I guess you didn't read my disclaimer when I first posted- let me rephrase: I'm new to this world so excuse my ignorance. Based on your comment, I'm a fearful cheapskate who doesn't know where he's going, can't read a map who can't navigate CharePoint/EA/Evgo. Can we stick to the topic and...
  3. Driving on wet roads in conserve mode

    I read that deep in a different Rivian forum. The context for not having 21s for me was basically my guide saying 'if you want an R1S with 21" tires, you're basically going to wait for 9 months at least' (this was in mid-September 2022). I assumed it was supply chain but went forum digging for...
  4. Driving on wet roads in conserve mode

    From what I read, it was a performance issue at least with R1S.
  5. Driving on wet roads in conserve mode

    Glad I'm not alone on that. I've noticed too that doing a 0-60 punch in conserve can be sketchy (car has a wobble or shimmy?) and that I'm putting it in all-purpose when getting on the highway, and then putting it back into conserve once going. Maybe the ask is to Rivian- can you they put a...
  6. Driving on wet roads in conserve mode

    That's really helpful- thanks. Do you mean that high regen when in all wheel drive would have less impact on tire wear?
  7. Driving on wet roads in conserve mode

    Have had the R1S now for a few months and overall, amazing. As our roads here in PNW are now in wet mode for the next 5 months, I've learned that you need to completely change how you accelerate and rely on hard regen braking IF you want to continue to use the conserve mode. I find that I need...
  8. Rear Wiper Fluid Not Working

    Yes- I had the same problem this weekend. I'm getting mine serviced tomorrow and will let you know what they say.
  9. What is the best fitted hitch bicycle rack for R1S?

    Also- mean to say- I use the lever to tilt the bikes down and can open the gate no problem.
  10. What is the best fitted hitch bicycle rack for R1S?

    Agreed RE Kuat nv2.0, I'm using an older version in the photo of my R1S last weekend. Two things to note: Use the 'Accessory hitch' mode in Driver + and it shuts off your rear parking sensors while keeping adaptive cruise control on (this is HUGE- Audi/Land Rover/Volvo/BMW can NOT shut up their...
