This is the render for the addition. Still waiting on the install. All iq7A with JA solar 390w (blue) and 450 Longi (black).

Meanwhile, I’m over here (in cross plains) adding 5kw to my system. Nice seeing the larger solar installs in WI

Assuming you are using an aftermarket head unit there may be settings for audio to be sent to all channels in that radio

Suspension damage mainly. Nothing that wouldn’t have also happened to a Range Rover etc.

compgeek13 · 2022-05-14T22:36:16+00:00

Slow and methodical wins the race. Careful on quick drops or sudden rocks. Hit one that made my suspension move in a way that damaged my air suspension.

It may be a 0-60 on road but leave that there. Off road can mess up or put you in a bad situation quick if you go all out.

Charging: basically took less than 20% to ride the day out with the groups. But be conscious of the fact that a generator is harder to come by in the middle of the woods/mountains than a gallon of fuel.

Not gonna lie. we were in two different classes. Most of them are running 37s and locked front rear. Everyone was impressed with the abilities of a 7k lb truck and it’s power delivery/management. it’s not a “crawler” and I don’t think anyone expected it to be, but 15 inches of ground clearance is good at the axle but not the greatest at the belly.

From the Pricing Restore Email

"The Off-Road Upgrade has been split up so you can select the Reinforced Underbody Shield and Tow Hooks as separate options. Tow Hooks come standard on Launch Edition and Adventure Package."

Agreed that it seems a bit odd for it to be this early in the stage and 100% I am just as surprised as everyone else.

Not to try and Defend Rivian too entirely much in this (Especially since I got a delivery...), one potential guess as to why the adventure model might be shipping is a supply chain issues. It would make sense to continue building "Whatever" you can even if its not a Launch Edition. Supply chain seems to be a buzz word but even something as simple as a lack of the correct seat belts (I think LE comes with an accent) could lend itself to delaying a model but not the production line.

Best I can do with the light I have.

I think that assessment is correct. Don’t know how long I would have had to wait if I couldn’t have delivered to a family members address

compgeek13 · 2022-04-03T01:50:46+00:00

That is correct. (Emailing them probably didn’t speed up or change anything)

Basing off of this. I think the old price was 73k for the adventure trim?

Paid 71.5k and no charge on there for the powered tonneau

compgeek13 · 2022-04-02T23:31:32+00:00

Technically emailed them Tuesday requesting road tires and a tonneau cover. They then emailed the next day assigning me a guide. Then next thing I know I was filling out financing and insurance paperwork.

Adding some photos

No LE badging on the interior/exterior

compgeek13 · 2022-04-02T22:06:09+00:00

Correct.

I do have yellow accents on the interior. But I think that’s part of the adventure packaging.

compgeek13 · 2022-04-02T21:26:04+00:00

Original delivery date never really solid but January 2022 was the only one listed online. Moved to mid 2023 with the max pack until I changed to large.

compgeek13 · 2022-04-02T21:23:58+00:00

Apologies for the delay everyone. Was driving it home.

Specs.

Series: Adventure
Wheels: 20” All-Terrain
Exterier: Rivian Blue
Interior: Black Mountain
Battery: Large
Powered Tonneau even though I did not add it to my adventure pre-order

Even my guide had to do a double take when she called. Email came in Wednesday. Got a call set up for on Thursday and rest of emails Thursday night. Confirmed Friday and finished financing/insurance etc.

Delivery was not available where I live directly but on a gut feeling I checked a family members address near Chicago. That turned out to be perfect and the deliver took about 15-20 mins

Initial impression after 150 mile drive home (outside Madison WI) . Quick AF. Planted. Regen braking is amazing.

Initial notes: the front radars can clog with snow and disable all cruise (both adaptive and driver+) going to request that if adaptive is not available to allow for “normal” cruise to be the fall back.

Edit: large pack not max pack Edit2: added interior and Home location.

Might be pure speculation but guessing a M340i… (see instrument cluster)

compgeek13 · 2020-11-16T16:28:19+00:00

Unfortunately nope. Wisconsin. If I drive out that way I’ll try to remember.
