  1. Hankook iON HT 275/55R21 XL

    I'm now getting ready to pull the trigger for the 21" tires and I'm still not sure what to get. Biggest issue is that the Michelin tires are available at Costco and the price is the price but the Hankook I can't find anyone that has them locally which means ordering them then paying for the...
  2. What Did You Expect To Use… But Actually Never Do?

    The roof rack rails I purchased. I have a large Thule to go on top that I needed all the time in my Ascent. I haven't used it once with the Rivian in 3 years because the frunk is so large we have enough space for everything.
  3. Front suspension dropping slowly while parked, normal?

    I had the same issue I recorded a video and sent it to Rivian with the service ticket. I ended up bringing it in and they confirmed it leaked then replaced the suspension to stop this from happening. Link to the video:
  4. R1 Gen 3 - Wish list

    Faster charging I think they could do it with the current battery if they redesigned the cooling but if not a new battery so it holds a higher charging rate for longer Captains chairs with heated and ventilated seats Door handles like the Gen 1 instead of buttons Improved suspension as it is a...
  5. Overnight front suspension sag ? Front suspension loud squeaks?

    I had this with my 2023 R1S and recorded a video and entered a service ticket. They checked it in the shop and ended up replacing the front end components with the newer Gen 2 parts. Video here
  6. Vibration/clicking sound while car in All Purpose and High Height

    Thanks, I have an appointment early next month due to the air shocks leaking and just sent Rivian this video and let them know this is happening as well. I never heard back on this so thought I would post here!
  7. Vibration/clicking sound while car in All Purpose and High Height

    I didn't see any videos and I know there are lots of reports of a clicking sound but most say it happens in all heights. This only was happening while in High mode and no other mode. I normally run all purpose mid height but with the snow I put it in high just in case and was surprised when I...
  8. Newsweek: Modern EVs Do What Was Nearly Impossible a Decade Ago

    As someone who makes multiple long trips to the Lake Placid area during summer and winter the GOM is actually pretty accurate and removes a lot of the stress of driving. I can see the range difference from when it is 90 degrees outside to when it is 15 degrees which removes all the guess work of...
  9. Purchasing advice - Gen 1 vs Gen 2

    Two other things to check into: I believe the Quads had a longer warranty on the battery and motors. You might want to check on warranty length as a couple extra years/miles might make a big difference depending on the mileage. Check insurance while there is a few mechanical differences between...
  10. Hope Rivian can keep up with Nvidia's autonomous driving stack

    While I really live Nvidia I think Rivian made the right choice designing and building their own chips. I say this because Nvidia is not focused on automotive as much as they are on AI chips and they keep moving more production in that direction. Imagine if they slow it down more and increase...
  11. Conversation with my neighbor... Are Rivian's really for rich people?

    It all depends. I know a lot of people think I'm wealthy because I have a Rivian. I also know people who have well more than I do who drive old vehicles with 100,000 miles. Everyone is different and has different needs and wants. Also it depends on how well someone negotiated for their salary...
  12. [POLL] How likely are you to pay for Autonomy+ Package?

    I wouldn't pay for it every month but might pick it up when I know I'm going on a long trip. I know a lot of people that do that with their Tesla vehicles. They travel a couple months a year so turn on everything during those drives. Anyone know what happens if you spend the 2500 up front and...
  13. Gen 1 vs gen 2 charging performance

    Two reasons: 1. My wife has range anxiety and wants to know we can easily get to our destination. 2. If we don't charge up enough and need to stop again then it takes longer than just waiting at the first stop an extra 10 minutes. My wife is still nervous even after multiple long trips about...
  14. Gen 1 vs gen 2 charging performance

    I have a gen 1 and when they can hold 200kw for about 15 minutes instead of 3-5 I'll probably upgrade. Right now every time I stop to charge from ~10% to 80% it takes me about 45 minutes even hitting top speed. I would love this to be down around 30 minutes. I know 15 minutes doesn't sound like...
  15. Lifetime XM Subscription doesn't transfer to Rivian

    I thought you could only transfer the lifetime service 3 times. I still have mine on a vehicle from 2005 that I sold 7 years ago. But I still have and use the free streaming using the app on my phone. If we figure this out it would be great to transfer mine as well. Granted I never understood...
  16. Mid-Atlantic Rivian Club - Novice Off-Roading in Spring at Greenridge State Forest (May 16th)

    Have a great time can't make this time as I'm camping with the Scouts this weekend. Maybe next time I'll be available to join in the fun!
  17. New RAN pricing?

    I really think discount pricing should be included with connect+ as another incentive to sign up and get that monthly/yearly income from users. As far as the current pricing I think it is getting a bit high especially if there are other chargers that are in the same area or in areas with more...
  18. G1 motor fault and system fault -FIXED

    This all seems like normal behavior except the error code. Maybe the motors got a bit too warm but I know when I hit up a charger in the cold my motors did the same thing although getting up to only around 235 max. Did you get any warnings when the motors were hot? If anything I wonder if the...
  19. RJ quote: more sensors (including radar & lidar) is a way to catch up to Tesla's camera-only autonomous driving system

    I'm seeing a lot of comments comparing Tesla to Rivian. I just want to add that Tesla while having started this years ago it will not be able to hold that lead as hardware is getting cheaper and there are many ways of training the software that didn't exist or weren't known when Tesla was doing...
  20. RJ quote: more sensors (including radar & lidar) is a way to catch up to Tesla's camera-only autonomous driving system

    As a Gen 1 owner I never expected full self driving but I'm happy that they are looking to improve the advanced cruise control system. I have been using it more frequently on some of my long trips but at times it seems to start making a lot of micro adjustments at times. Not to mention it can't...
