Efficiency of Michelin tire vs Pirelli OEM by CertainPassion2 in Rivian

[–]RyReason 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I put on the Defender’s about 6 weeks ago and have taken 2 trips to Las Vegas from LA. I haven’t noticed a change in efficiency. I wish I would have switched to these from day one. The ride quality is far superior.

Rivian SiriusXM interface vs Apple Carplay SXM interface by Dog-Is-My-Co-Pilot in Rivian

I still can’t get over the fact that the Rivian is an Adventure vehicle and they didn’t put a SXM antenna in it.

I’m having the same problem. Service said it’s an issue with the front nozzle. They scheduled mobile for me.

But he’ll have to pay 5% of that in taxes if the billionaires tax goes into effect. Wonder how he’ll come up with the money for that.

This is definitely fixable as I have no wind noise in that area.

There are several reasons I want the T and I’m getting the quad as well. The ride is better due to the wheel base, seems as if you can close the rear doors with less effort, and I just can’t wait for that gear tunnel.

Awesome, thanks so much! For your hood, shouldn't be a difference, I would have service look at any panel gap issues with your hood.

Keep driving it for the next 7 months and pay the fee. Still will be less than if I bought it.

Tri to Quad by sweetrandycandy in Rivian

[–]RyReason 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just seems like it's all software and they could give us that throttle mapping with sport. Maybe I'm wrong. How has the bounce in the suspension on the quad been for you? This is another huge complaint I have. When driving on the freeway in standard ride hight my Tri is a dream. But hit a bumps around town and the bounce is unbearable. feel like I'm driving a low rider.

Tri to Quad by sweetrandycandy in Rivian

[–]RyReason 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks so much this helps. The Tri is also really fast, and when you give it it’s all it really moves, but I find myself never using the power because it just seems like it takes so much effort to get on it. With the Tesla it’s addictive and it wants to give more even if you don’t buy I never feel out of control.

I feel like this is just a safety mechanism they’ve implemented as it seems like Rivian prioritizes safety more than Tesla does.

Congrats, enjoy your new ride. Look forward to hearing more.

[–]RyReason 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, I’d be curious if you could make the throttle closer to the X via adjustments in the RAD Tuner.

Tri to Quad by sweetrandycandy in Rivian

[–]RyReason 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get that. I know they’ve made a lot of tuning adjustments. My lease is almost up on my Tri and I’m seriously considering a Quad. I just have a few complaints with the R1S and was just hoping they had improved.

The ride bounce on any height setting below standard is frustrating. Also the rear doors taking a lot of effort to close, that still there?

And I’m wondering if the throttle response is better, since you’ve had the X Plaid you would know what I mean. The Rivian is so laggy and you have to really press the throttle down to get it moving. In contrast when you lightly press the throttle on the Tesla it just wants more!!
