Are there cars out there with climate control on the steering wheel?

Some have some controls on the wheel. My Tesla allows the right scroll wheel to adjust fan speed. I use it frequently, without it in the Rivian I tend to adjust the fan less.

Curious how many people have configured Alexa in the Rivian.

I have a dot at the house but never set it up in the R1S.

May I need to setup a poll.

You don't need to memorize any list, because Alexa can understand a wide variation of things. Just ask for what you want. If Alexa doesn't understand, it's likely because Rivian hasn't exposed that functionality to Alexa yet.

The example commands given above are really just to give you an idea of some things you can ask for, but it would be impossible to list ALL the variations that Alexa can understand.

Agreed that would be nice, good thinking

Hey Team, I want Alexa to fold the mirrors. How can I add that skill? I want to be able to fold the mirrors easily (without going through the menus) when I pull the truck into my garage.

or... If Rivian needs to allow this? Please please and thank you!
