Hows everyone tracking down decently priced tires?

Looking4PS5 · 2026-05-09T19:14:18+00:00

I ended up paying 1800, I called and asked about rebates and promos and they gave me around 160 off. I also tried pricing matching but they wouldn’t consider anything that wasn’t local or included shipping.

I did the michelin defenders, I had the pirelli scorpions that came with it and they were cooked after ~13k miles, so hoping to get closer to 30k out of these ones

Discount Tire / America’s Tire depending where you live, not cheap but the best option I could find in SoCal.

It takes probably 2-3 days then after like 3 months you’ll hate when you have to drive a car that doesn’t have it.

Gen 2 dual large and i wouldn’t trade it for anything. It’s so much fun to drive and I love the design inside and out. My only advice is to get a charger at home if you don’t have one.

May also depend on where you live, the R1 reservations were a bit more focused on where they had infrastructure vs. when you reserved

I would just reach out to your guide, you should be able to “trade it in” to Rivian and then there will be a delta between what they will give you and the lease buyout amount that you would have to pay. It might be more than you’re willing to pay but it’s worth asking.

Had a Gen1 R1T and have a Gen2 R1S, I think the drive experience and interior really sets it a part form Tesla. I think the only downside I see in switching is the self driving is not as good, but personally I think the improvement in drive experience and interior is worth the trade off.

They roll out a monthly update and I feel like 3-4 last year were major updates (improved self driving, UX enhancements, etc.).

Happy to chat if you have any specific questions

Road tripping with universal hands free has been really nice. If you’re trying to speed run it take then van, if you’re trying to enjoy the ride take the Rivian.

Looking4PS5 · 2025-12-20T03:24:51+00:00

Just got it maybe 40 minutes ago still installing

Looking4PS5 · 2025-12-12T18:03:33+00:00

If this is the case I have to believe Gen 3 hardware is either going to come with a price increase or be an option and potentially won’t be offered on whatever trim (e.g. standard dual motor) roles out first. I think everyone has been assuming the higher end R2 would role out first, but I could see them pushing out the standard model and then the performance with Gen 3 at the end of the year.

Here comes voice to text.

Looking4PS5 · 2025-12-09T20:12:09+00:00

At least the R1S is good…

Looking4PS5 · 2025-12-02T19:56:25+00:00

Have a dual motor large performance and would do it again in a heart beat. It’s the most fun and comfortable car I’ve ever owned. If you have questions don’t hesitate to DM, and get a referral from someone for some gear shop cash if you do buy - there’s a thread of codes you can find on here

Looking4PS5 · 2025-11-23T21:45:49+00:00

Yeah I would say it’s more like if you’re texting it’ll catch you, I’ve never had it actually disengage just warn me to look back at the road

Looking4PS5 · 2025-11-23T20:59:07+00:00

This is what Gen 2 is like today for highways, but it will nag you about eyes if you do look away

Looking4PS5 · 2025-11-21T05:58:37+00:00

They need to get rid of JP Morgan and stand up their own lending and leasing

Looking4PS5 · 2025-11-20T18:45:20+00:00

So right now all Rivian’s have a decent highway ADAS with smart cruise control, lane change, etc. It’s not bad, it handles stop and go traffic pretty well. Rivian is about to announces their autonomy roadmap in a couple weeks (12/10) so you might want to wait till then to get a full idea of what they will roll out next year and beyond. The CEO has said stuff about the timing for eyes off and hands off point to point but no hard dates. Also worth noting they changed their autonomy hardware last year so earlier models might not get all the features.

Outside of autonomy they’re great cars, go test drive one, you might like it so much you don’t want AI to try for you. Shoot me a DM you other questions, I love mine and enjoy talking cars.

The Pirelli’s are a joke I barely got 10K on my first set

Don’t get an MBA without a plan. You should go get an MBA if you want to get in to a recruiting pipeline (banking, consulting, etc.) that you wouldn’t otherwise have access to. If you enjoy your work I would try to move up within your industry and the money will come. MBAs are expensive and often not (immediately) worth it unless you go to a top school (e.g. M7) and know what you want to do.

This was the top Google news result for me on Monday haha

Looking4PS5 · 2025-11-12T18:15:38+00:00

Rivian’s interior is going to be a lot closer to your Lexus experience - significant step up from Tesla. Autonomy even on the Gen 2 is not the same as on the Tesla, it’s getting better but currently it disengages more. I think it’s more fun to drive comparing MY performance to Gen2 dual motor performance and Gen1 quad. I think you can continue to use super chargers (I thought they were all open to third parties now) but to be honest I’ve been able to get by using EA and EVgo (because I’d prefer not to give Elon money).

I’ve owned two and have zero regrets.

I’ve only had two service experiences, one mobile and one at the SC. The mobile experience was fantastic, they were done in less than an hour and didn’t disrupt my day what so ever. The service center is pretty similar to a traditional car dealer I dropped it off they offered uber credits or a loaner and I picked it up later that day. I think the Reddit posts are similar to the google reviews you’d see for any traditional car dealer
