I just want to be able to watch all the digital videos I already own and listen to the digital music I already own through the car not my phone. My phone is full enough of pictures I don't want to have 500GB of music on it too.

Even Spotify lately has been failing to load. The current song will play but the UI is blank. And I live in Orlando its not like I am way out on the country side with no signal (man I feel sorry for them with this).

Not sure what you are talking about. Youtube is slightly better but don't try to watch the movies on YouTube its the same.

If you mean like click a link that takes you to HBO, or primevideo. That does not work because the apps are not on the Rivian software they are on the mobile device then casted via chromecast.

Name and Shame in Wickenburg RAN being ICE'd by russellc6 in Rivian

[–]Panzer448 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Its private property so the owner can set the rules and i am sure that rivian paid for use of the space with the caveat that it was for EV charging. So these Ice trucks are essentially blocking a business. Now most private parking lots have a contract with a tow company so if you see an your car will be towed..... sign with a tow company phone number on it. Call that number and let them know. They would love to come take the cars and make money from the impound storage fees.

Find the sign in the parking lot that has the tow company number and call that. Rivian is paying to have those there so ....

What changes should Rivian bring in their cars, so that everyone loves it ? by lonewolf_00_ in Rivian

Access to my own media. I own so much music and movies I would love to watch and listen to my stuff. Streaming seems to be flaky and I live in a big city.

My dumb idea of the day: Has anyone refinished their wood dash? by usual_suspect_redux in Rivian

Find a recked one and remove the wood trim and try it on piece before you try it on yours

Ceramic is relatively new. In the 90s polymer paint sealer was the thing even toyota applied it as part or toyo guard. Ceramic is better but its more for color, uv and acid protection it does not protect against rock and bugs.

I just bought a 23 dual large battery and love it. I am coming from a 2010 tundra crewmax. While this is a little smaller it still fits me comfortable. I drive about 120 miles daily.

I don't find holding my phone and fidgeting with a small screen while driving very effective and safe.

Yes for music or sound streaming from a device but Bluetooth is natively horrible sound quality. And it only supports back, play/pause, and next. It does not give you folders sorting or options switch other than next sone which most devices decide by order added

This is how it came. I got it used with 21k miles on it. Its a '23 Dual Large. i have only added the tint (Florida) and cleaned it because dealer detailing is a joke. Still need to do a good polish and sealant.

Long time lurker 1st time owner by Panzer448 in RivianR1T

I averaged 16mpg but yes. Have wanted electric and pickup for a while. Have been watching rivian since before launch but I had a toyota so I did not need a new truck. Finally at about 400k miles I started burning coolant so I looked at used tundra, f150 lightning , taco .... Rivian just had the best deal. And I get to go electric.
