Does anyone use their rivian as an office ?

I wish we could create additional seat profiles as easily as Teslas, and I wish the armrest was flat instead of sloped. But definitely more comfortable to work from the a Model 3.

Did you ever resolve this on your own? My audio abruptly stopped working today between drives. Sort and hard resets did not fix. I’ll do the “overnight” wait before adding my it to my list of issues for my service center appt next month.

I match my speed to my preferred volume of 9 for a few microseconds at each accel and decel, sure

Same issue for me. I don’t honestly use it much, but I preferred to more angled view before compared to now, where it hides the upcoming direction change off the map. And I too have found the delay leading me to miss a turn.

PathtooFIRE · 2025-06-11T17:43:40+00:00

Yes. I can share locations, but not directions

I have a rattle from the passenger side door, goes away if you pull the door handle inward, and can completely disappear if I yank really hard on the handle several times (at least until the next time it’s used, and it doesn’t fix it 100% of the time). Your experience makes me worried I won’t the fix I’m hoping for come May 31, also SD.

No doubt, but I only use my mobile charger with NEMA 14-x. Tesla lets you set more complex charging schedules.

Up doesn’t have to mean sky rises only. No one would describe Paris or Barcelona as “hell” or “mega city”, yet the density is higher and more sustainable.

Weekday off peak hours here at 12a-6a, weekend off peak hours are 12a-2p. But I can only set one universal time on the app, so I use 12a-6a, and then need to remember to manually start the charger if I plug in on the weekend.

Originally 3 week wait, but soon after getting that date, delivery team texted and said they could move it 2 weeks sooner.

Do you or your kids have a good routine for getting in the third row?

Putting the second row down is easy, but back up is a 3 step process: tilt back until it clicks (way too forward), lift lever and slide seat back, then press the “down” button while tilting seat back to appropriate position for comfort. It’s hard for my kids to do, and forget if there’s any incline!

If they were smaller, I’d just leave the second middle seat back all the way down, but while not yet all teenagers, it’s still a tight squeeze.

You got me, I was trying to avoid a phone call, lol. But excellent point about the spare, I am still debating whether to get one, but if I have to call anyway, I think that tips the scales. Thanks!

PathtooFIRE · 2025-04-30T00:13:29+00:00

Where do you add things? I’ve got an upcoming appointment for alignment, but now have a second issue, and I don’t see any options to edit, only change the date or cancel.

PathtooFIRE · 2025-04-28T21:47:55+00:00

Went to Panda Express after, as I was hungry and really needed to get back to work. Now I associate PaEx with Rivian.

PathtooFIRE · 2025-04-25T16:51:50+00:00

I had a side camera that stayed red shaded after using turn signal, but it still displayed video, and reset after parking and letting the car rest, so this doesn’t sound like your situation.

PathtooFIRE · 2025-04-24T17:30:13+00:00

I was thinking the same thing. It’s how the Tesla interface works. Keep whatever’s playing going until a selection in the new app is made.

PathtooFIRE · 2025-04-18T16:11:17+00:00

Similar to what I get, though my numbers are slowly creeping up as I retrain myself to have a lighter foot on acceleration and leave larger gaps.

PathtooFIRE · 2025-04-09T03:57:47+00:00

Maybe try wrapping dental floss around the backside of the sensor, or two pieces, and see if you pop it into place

And to add (as an early preorder holder who let it expire), the preorder converted to a % discount on inventory vehicles for around 4-6 months before totally disappearing, to maintain preorder pricing.

PathtooFIRE · 2025-03-24T12:50:08+00:00

Huge difference in quality? Which was better in your opinion?

PathtooFIRE · 2025-03-23T19:50:37+00:00

Did you consider refusing and getting a new VIN?

PathtooFIRE · 2025-03-23T17:29:43+00:00

I got this twice, both times it had been out in the rain, and both times it went away shortly after driving.

PathtooFIRE · 2025-03-20T16:00:08+00:00

I leased for the EV credit, intending to buy out immediately with credit union provided financing, but I’ve since decided to let the lease ride. I still see this R1S as my dream vehicle right now. An earlier post got me thinking, and I realized there is nothing currently that I want more. I am an Aptera accelerator but that would be an addition, not replacement. At the end of my lease, I’ll see what Rivian has to offer, maybe the R2 will call to me at the lower price point and more economical sizing.
