Interesting to know that it has improved recently. I turned mine off shortly after taking delivery last March. It unlocked so randomly at home that I didn’t trust it to stay locked when parked outside a store or restaurant. I will have to give it another try.

Now you’re just temping fate.

If your plan is to keep the 20s for off road then it might be worthwhile to try a different AT that has a chance of being quieter. The Falken Wildpeak A/T3W and Nitto Recon Grappler A/T have been popular and you should be able to find some useful feedback from other owners here. Personally, I am...

Either magnetic rims or the lack of a spare tire creates a magnetic field or she is just really good at aiming for nails and screws on the road . 🤷‍♂️ I've started saving them as souvenirs for her. It's quite a varied collection.

The talisman theory really works. I have to plug punctures at least 6 times a year on my wife's 328i that has run flats and no spare. None in the last year on the R1T with my DIY spare.

Doesn’t sound serious, but still not good news. https://www.wglt.org/local-news/2024-04-25/fire-forces-evacuation-of-rivian-plant Fire forces evacuation of Rivian plant A fire at the Rivian plant in Normal forced the evacuation of the plant for an hour and a half Thursday morning. The fire...

I stopped by the car wash after work today to undo the mud and dust I added this weekend. I noticed for the first time the car wash mode status picture on the app and had to smile. Fun!

I can feel a noticeable difference between the soft/moderate/firm suspension settings. Try them out if you get a chance for a 2nd test drive.

Extensive audio testing and suggested EQ settings for you in this thread. https://www.rivianforums.com/forum/threads/how-to-improve-a-rivian-r1s%E2%80%99s-elevation-sound-system-with-simple-eq-changes-equipment-measured-tests-results.24034/

Low water level means lots of exposed shoreline. Missed getting a picture of the nav screen that showed me in the middle of the reservoir.

Received my StowNCharge this week and just installed it. I was happy to find that a tin of Altoids fits nicely in the storage drawer. Now I'm all set for convenient and reliable access to wireless charging and curiously strong mints. :muscle:

Hmmm, there doesn't seem to be a way to generate an alert whenever @COdogman posts an animated GIF.

Do Tesla owners thank Rivian in the Tesla forums? Every time I pull in to the Sacrament RAN all the L2 stalls are occupied with Teslas mooching off the free chargers.

Doubtful. You won’t get a grounded connection from a light socket. Haven’t used the L1 travel charger adapter myself. But I know it is pretty finicky about grounding on L2.. Yes, there are 3-prong adapters. But a bulb socket only has hot and neutral. So the ground goes nowhere.

I upgraded from and iPhone 11 to 14 pro a few months after taking delivery. Just signed in to the Rivian app, paired the new phone and carried on. Side note, the iPhone 11 worked better with the built-in wireless charger since it was not a MagSafe device.

All purpose mode with auto ride height. Which essentially means standard or low height. I do generally have auto high beams on. Yes, they can get a bit wonky. However that isn’t the issue here. Last night I passed a line of three oncoming vehicles, high beams were behaving properly. The third...

I guess this is what adaptive driving beam headlights are supposed to fix. I recall reading that Polestar vehicles have ADB capability based on European rules but can’t enable them on in the US because NHTSA adopted a rule that would require hardware changes.

Thanks! I’ll give that a try.
