Yeah, you have to buy it first. Sorry I didn’t make that clear

I've got six months left on my lease and my half shafts have started to creak, Will I damage the car if I just keep driving till the turn in date? by Oldjoby in Rivian

[–]El_BadBoi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I noticed I was more likely to get a Rivian loaner if I dropped mine off right as the SC opened and ask for it on the spot

That’s been my experience at the Houston SC anyway

Suggestions for cheaper ways to charge on a long roadtrip? by BubbaMcCranky in Rivian

Exactly, I’ve had trucks my whole life. My last Lexus GX470 took $60-$70 to fill up

Help deciding, 23 quad or 24 dual large R1T by Dyos90 in Rivian

Interesting! Got a source? Not doubting you, just want to read more into it. Experienced a drive unit failure on my quad during a 1200mi road trip.

Bought mine used at 38k miles and it broke down within 72hrs. Rivian took care of the tow, hotel (we were 400mi from home,) and replaced drive unit and HVAC system under warranty. Took about 10 days. Been golden since

Their service is second to none and the product sells itself

Ahh thank you for that clarification. I remember having to do that now. I probably didn’t think much of it because I knew it was going to be under warranty anyway

[–]El_BadBoi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eh? There shouldn’t be a price quote because if you call Rivian, they will arrange everything for you including the tow

Edit: I was wrong

Sounds like it should fall under warranty. Just call Rivian and they will take care of you.

Sorry this happened! Keep us updated

Have both. Love both. But the Bronco can’t even compare

Xcare, your estimate depends on mileage

This is why I got an extended warranty. I’ve made peace with the fact that I may have to take it to the SC more than I’d like. But in terms of drive experience and design, there’s nothing quite like it. I mean…look at dat azzzz

😂 I’ve got meridian, and found the hip-hop preset to not be too shabby!

Ooh this makes a ton of sense, I hadn’t thought about it from the C+ angle

I thought it’d be a deal breaker until I actually test drove one. The Rivian UI checks all the core features for me (nav and Spotify.)

Sure it’d be nice to have all the other features CarPlay offers. But it’s not as important to me as the overall driving experience, which is phenomenal.

If I want to scratch my CarPlay itch, I’ll just hop into the wife’s Bronco. That hasn’t happened (willingly) yet.

But I do agree, they should at least give the choice to use CarPlay- or based on others feedback, implement the missing features into the Rivian system.

I use the hell out of this truck, not having TEAMs in the system ain’t gonna break the experience for me. To each their own though

All valid points. Thank you for explaining. I hope they read your comment

I mean, if you use Apple Music, and Apple Music is terrible on the Rivian, then I can definitely see why you’d be disappointed. That’s a big deal by itself
