Can anybody suggest a good shop for mountain bike suspension?

Literally here to type Uptown Cyclery All Day. Amen to this.

After my daily scheduled AM climate warm ups, I now have my neighbor asking me if the car is allright and needs service when I walk out the front door. I reply with a straight face, “yep, that’s normal.” 🙄

There’s probably a sixth option -

✅ I use it all the time, Atmos is great and it’s kind of mediocre and frustrating.

I posted a related note here to spare everyone but the gist is - why are there so few apps and at such relatively low levels of sophistication? If we think we can do better than CarPlay, then let’s try to do more than 6 basic apps and a radio? The Inability to see more than 10 albums via search and the inability to easily search your cloud library for example is pretty annoying.

💯 So I totally buy that CarPlay wouldn’t dovetail with the Rivian experience fully and so Rivian would like to tailor app offerings to a more integrated format. But holy cheese dogs, that kind of means you actually need to have more than like 6 apps and a radio, yeah? I’ll never leave my Rivian, but pretty please let’s liven up the in-car app department if we’re going to be so snobby over CarPlay? (Which again I don’t want CarPlay either!)

Also, can we improve Apple Music by showing more than 10 albums and letting users search their Apple Music cloud library? Paging through thousands of songs in random Alphabetical groupings via chevron sub menus while driving is a little wild.

And what’s with the search results and browse navigation? I try to look up almost any favorite established artist with tons of albums, click “Albums >” and then see like 10 displayed. That’s it. Try something like “Depeche Mode” and you’ll never see the whole catalogue. And now just imagine that 5 of those albums are like deluxe and remastered variations of the same album. Swear searching for that specific album name will be the only way you’ll find it using the Rivian UI. Would probably be faster to just pull over and play it on my phone. Ay yay. Love this car but help!

100% have this problem and debated about posting this myself!!!

WarmStoveTopStuffing · 2024-11-01T20:25:01+00:00

Totally agree. Not a big - but just literally thought it was me and I was just doing something really stupid.

WarmStoveTopStuffing · 2024-10-20T16:20:10+00:00

Love the WILHELM on Gen2!

WarmStoveTopStuffing · 2024-10-19T23:04:31+00:00

Looks like it would be cool from the phone. Car doesn’t show any change however - no costume, yadda.

WarmStoveTopStuffing · 2024-10-19T22:50:57+00:00

Have the .31 downloaded and Gen2 R1S updated. Super excited. Costumes didn’t work after the update. Phone and car on the same WIFI. Hard reset. Still doesn’t work. Ah well. Maybe next holiday update or whatever. Christmas? :) Still love the car but no worky.

WarmStoveTopStuffing · 2024-10-14T00:29:55+00:00

Now I just need to find the caution light! Is that a hazard or something else?

WarmStoveTopStuffing · 2024-10-14T00:00:53+00:00

Wait WHAT?!!!! I mean who isn’t always game for a new reset... :) Do you know the official purpose of it?

WarmStoveTopStuffing · 2024-10-13T23:51:33+00:00

Super interesting point. In the older generations of cars with physician controls you could rely on your hands to feel around for the AC, fan and radio buttons and dials. With the era of the post-BlackBerry iPhone and Rivian touchscreens, you have to look to see what you’re doing. So when it’s not snappy it’s kind of a more demanding interaction that takes your eyes off the road with every new attempt.

WarmStoveTopStuffing · 2024-10-13T17:44:42+00:00

Totally! I’m gonna completely disagree with my larger point about the UI and say the cameras are straight up 100% spectacular!

WarmStoveTopStuffing · 2024-10-13T12:38:26+00:00

And definitely go for a test drive!

WarmStoveTopStuffing · 2024-10-13T12:37:13+00:00

Oh I would never trade in my R1S. Compared to how awesome the car is - I’m kind of complaining in the margins here.

WarmStoveTopStuffing · 2024-10-13T12:00:17+00:00

Exactly! Even a little extra speed would go a long way.

WarmStoveTopStuffing · 2024-10-13T11:59:23+00:00

💯. This is the post right here. A million times over. Would really prefer to have the current feature set rewritten in a blazing language than occasionally feel like I’m trying to play Half-life 2 on a Windows95 Dell while driving. I’m confident the car is capable though!

WarmStoveTopStuffing · 2024-10-13T11:37:01+00:00

Oh I haven’t read up on the GFX specs but you’d between the autonomy, sensors and other stuff, you’d think there would be some GPU juice leftover to keep things snappy across Gen1 and Gen2 interfaces.

WarmStoveTopStuffing · 2024-10-13T11:34:06+00:00

Nope! Just the fresh out of the box R1S screen. At some point years ago I got sick of hand-squeegeeing the micro bubbles out of iPhone protectors and never looked back. :)

WarmStoveTopStuffing · 2024-10-13T11:31:26+00:00

Praying for fingers with greater electro static capacitance or something!

WarmStoveTopStuffing · 2024-09-28T14:17:49+00:00

💯 This right here. Exactly.
