My biggest disappointment is that I still need to put my R1T back together so I don't miss out on it!

Personally, I thought the R1 Halloween update was cool and unique.... First time EV owner and just curious if Rivian's competitors offer something similar or better? We went out to the outlets and while my wife was shopping, I was checking out the Rivian app Halloween section. We came back to my truck having the night rider theme cranking and the people parked next to me checking out the car..... It was comical, and I was completely clueless, heard the theme and didn't realize it was my truck until I opened up the door..... lol

Oh you’re so persecuted because you couldn’t bother to find out the answer to your question before complaining. Poor you. Instead of asking us to be nicer maybe next time figure out if your complaint is justified to make or just whining BEFORE opening your mouth.

The reception you received was 100% your doing, you earned the grief tossed your way when you whined about something and were wrong. Now you’re trying to play the poor me victim card instead of acknowledging your mistake, eating that piece of humble pie and moving on.

This victim complex thing is really immature and unhealthy and you should stop it. I mean goddamn you just compared yourself to Jesus.
Amen

So, gen 1 here.... I've selected Owl (and tried the others) in the UI, but ever get any sounds. Is there another toggle somewhere to enable external sounds?

For those who are having trouble finding it, like I did:

As mentioned, even when selecting, I do not get any sound when locking or unlocking (at home or otherwise). Costumes work inside just fine. Thoughts, re lack of external sounds?

When you walk away from your car and it locks you get no sounds? You've never heard a chirp?

@Riviot thanks for showing that, I guess I deserved all the hate here for expressing my disappointment. Oh well, the world is full of hate, what is new. I thought we can have a healthy conversation but I guess I strike a nerve. We’re not even talking about politics.
I guess you all live a very happy and comfortable lives and there is no room for complaints. Reminds me of Jesus asking who wants to cast the first stone.
But I do appreciate those who simply say, “I disagree, I really enjoy this year’s Halloween mode. Let me show you how it’s done!”
Well, next time your employee or your kid or friend came up to you to complain, think for a second before you throw all that hate
at them because they seem to not appreciate as much as you do.
Peace ✌?
I’m going out on a limb and guessing you probably didn’t read my post, so I’ll repeat the part which may help you avoid this sort of thing in the future:

What really bugs me about this post is that even without someone searching first, it could’ve been handled better. If you started with questions (e.g. Why didn’t we get any special sounds this year? Am I missing something?) rather than a rant I bet the responses would’ve been almost exclusively helpful: more about the topic and less about how the topic was presented.

Yes, in the past I have heard a chirp; but not sure how far back. My truck was in for damper replacement a few weeks back, so maybe they disconnected the speaker? Need to check for sound went reversing. I assume that would come from the same speaker?
