    “Send to Rivian” INOP after 2023.50.01 Update

    I just installed the EV Sportline CarPlay screen this morning and I have to tell you, its pretty sweet. Wires can be easily hid under the dash (there is a user thread here that shows that installation version and it is definitely better than the one EV Sportline put up) and it practically looks...

    My EV Sportline CarPlay Display Hidden Wires Install

    Did this in less than an hour. Slightly different in running in that it went under the weather stripping in the door as that side panel was recalcitrant and seemed like it would require excessive force to open. This is SO MUCH better looking than the other carplay unit I had!!

    CarPlay & Android Auto Smart Dash Screen has arrived! New from EVSportline.com

    So that's interesting. What i am assuming to be my screen then is lost by UPS (investigation opened but no resolution now on day #6 - and yes I know there are holidays in there) but I have not received any bracket by fed ex.

    CarPlay & Android Auto Smart Dash Screen has arrived! New from EVSportline.com

    Should note here that EVSportline started also trying to track this down for me as soon as they got back from Christmas Break. Just wanted folks to know this was not on them.

    CarPlay & Android Auto Smart Dash Screen has arrived! New from EVSportline.com

    Ahhh if only! (he says happy for you and jealous at the same time, lol) Usually, getting to a human solves most issues. When you don't meet them/know them yo uar e stuck with UPS' super frustrating and non functional phone-bot.

    CarPlay & Android Auto Smart Dash Screen has arrived! New from EVSportline.com

    So when I got my first notice that this had shopped I was ecstatic. It was supposed to arrive on the 23rd and I thought, "Wow, that will be great" Also, EV Sportline chose to use UPS. The only thing that UPS does worse than deliver packages is customer service. So here I am, 2 hours in to...

    Strangers policing reasons you bought your EV

    I have been asked some odd questions in parking lots and I do my best to just give a non-emotional, non-politicized answer no matter what. Now, I have never had anyone be outright rude or aggressive with me over the EV vs ICE and all of that. I always try to remember how when i had my first EV...

    DMV Rivian Owners

    Just wanted to give a follow up - Went out this week and it was easy as pie! (Though, if you’ve ever made a pie, thats not so easy.) Aired down to about 22 psi, dropped it in sand mode off I went. On the ocean side of the dunes I found sand mode really restrictive as other vehicles swept past...

    DMV Rivian Owners

    Thank you, this is very helpful! - I have done offroading more than a few times and never had an issue, but then I was with friends and also just have a higher experience / comfort level with that versus sand. I do have recovery boards and an air down valve.

    So next week I will be in Corolla, NC for annual beach week. Am contemplating taking the R1T out on the sand. have also seen pics / heard horror stories of R1Ts digging themselves into the beach and having to be towed. Any experience in this group? Any suggestions or tips?

    Rivian navigation on long trips

    For anything more than a simple point A to point B trip that is less than 225 miles, the Nav in the truck is pretty much useless. I do many road trips and have owned four EVs so far. Now, each EV has its own quirks and we as the owners have to learn those and drive/plan accordingly, but that...

    Weekly Rivian Responds + Roundup: Configuration Updates, Truck Bed Camera, and More! [8/25/2023]

    Truly, the navigation is bad and needs some work (or just let us use one of the others out there that works? BUying ABRP raised everyone's hopes - but most people with a longer EV ownership history are using their phone to navigate multistop road trips. Please add off roading app? All trails...

    “Critical battery issue”

    I couldn't get the tech to come out so was mostly talking to the public facing guy who is always in the office managing the computers... when I asked he said there was a "customer satisfaction bulletin" that came up when he entered my VIN and so they "updated" the 12v.... I dug a little but...
