Purchased used, curious what might be missing from R1S

There is also a plastic piece over the trailer hitch that pulls off. Those are the only other things I can think of that are removable from the vehicle.

luckily, this was on there.

Yeah, they must've kept LITERALLY everything... The bluetooth speaker and flashlight were in there. No compressor stuff (it is equipped with the compressor) and ZERO charging stuff. It has a set of greenish floor mats that look like they'd be terrible, but I have actually ended up liking. I did get two carabiner fobs and two NFC cards. It was purchased through an independent used luxury auto dealer, not Rivian (which saved me around 10k). I'm sure Rivian probably throws the missing stuff in their used units before selling...

I dont understand that thinking. The "good news" is that you can get the replacements the way you want. For example, the standard compressor hose is not that great. Search here and there should be a thread on some great alternatives that are actally easier to fold/store. It's a great car. Enjoy in good health!

OP: For the hose, get a 25’ reinforced coiled hose instead. All in with fittings you should be no worse than $40 out. Takes up about the same space as the 20' factory rubber hose but much easier to put away. Or you can go fancy and spend much more with Apex Design’s reeled hose: https://soonishev.com/products/soonishev-mount-for-apex-crs-to-rivian-r1s

Congrats! Compressor kit if you have that option installed.

Compressor was standard equipment for all gen 1.

Definitely get a air hose. I thought the compressor would be a gimmick I would never use, but I use it all the time mostly for other people’s vehicles/trailers/camping equipment.
the original hose kit came with adapters to fill air mattresses, soccer balls, etc but the hose is so difficult to put away I’d get an aftermarket solution even without the adapters.

And those various adapters are easily sourced. Nothing special to them. The quick release fittings at ends of the hose are female Milton-M style. The Schrader open-flow air chucks are made by JACO. You can pretty much get equivalent of everything in the factory kit, including a coiled hose, cheaply from Harbor Freight.

Got a set from harbor freight for under $40(?) with coiled hose with a 300 psi rating for quick use. The one that came with Rivian is a pain to stow so i just use it as a backup.

Another nice thing about coiled hoses, they're lighter and tend to stay off of the ground. The factory rubber hose is heavier and a magnet for thorny things. That combined with the hassle of having to handle it to wind it back, you know what that means to your hands. The downside with coiled hoses is they are more prone to cracking if run over or stepped on, especially cheaper ones that are not reinforced with nylon webbing.

Hello,

I purchased my R1S used back in Dec of last year. Absolutely nothing was in the vehicle as far as cables, adapters, etc. I am wodering, what would have originally come with the vehicle had I purcahsed new, if I were interested in tracking it all down..?

Thanks in advance!

Check for the flashlight. You might miss it, because it's in a small round opening in the drivers side door. It's one of the most handy accessories. When it's in the door it charges automatically. I agree with previous comments about the camp speaker. If you have to pay for it don't bother. There are actually storage compartments that fit in the same space that would be more useful than the speaker. You can get better ones that actually work.
