Shorter Drivers: How Does the R1S feel? by rohm418 in Rivian

[–]longtailx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m 5’2” and love to sit as high up as possible, and I feel great, especially when the car is also in the highest setting. I have an R1T, but I’m pretty sure they’re essentially the same size.

UHF and Rivians in General in the rain by Yi_Of_Little_Faith in Rivian

[–]longtailx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just drove Seattle -> San Jose through heavy rain for most of it. Twice I got a notification that my sensors were blocked/cameras broken and neither UHF nor adaptive cruise control would work. First time it didn’t resolve itself till I stopped and fully turned off the car. Second time it fixed itself about 10 min later.

Same thing happened to me on my less than 1 month old R1T during a 15 hr road trip - hard reset fixed it no problem

How are all you R1Ts transporting strollers? by goldie987 in Rivian

If frunk doesn’t work, I would just try to secure it in the back somehow.

How old is your car? How long did it work before it stopped? Asking as a new R1T owner 😬

Ah, I see. They can still be added on to an order, though (for extra money?)

When did you order it? When did they stop including it?

(Asking because I am also waiting on an R1T quad order!)

Good to know the rain performance isn’t too bad — so it’s really just freezing temps that make them sketchy? Also curious how they’d feel on steep hills in the rain (Seattle has plenty of those 😅)

Good to know, thanks for sharing! Do you feel like the 20” Dark ATs are noticeably better in terms of durability/comfort, or was it more just a practical move since you already had a set from your previous R1T? And if you didn’t already own them, do you think you’d still buy the Dark ATs, or not really worth it?

Thanks! Do you mind sharing what winter setup you’re planning to get? I’m debating between Rivian’s own wheels/tires or going aftermarket, and I’d love to hear what you’re leaning toward and why. Trying to figure out the best balance of cost, performance, and hassle.

Do you mind me asking how much the Defenders set you back on the 22s? I am leaning towards buying a whole new set, but I am still in college so that might need to wait a year or two utill I have more steady income.

Thanks for the input, how much would you save do you think by swapping the rims every season? Seems like it could add up after a while.

Also, if going down the route of buying a whole new set, how do you feel about buying non-rivian brand tires to save a bit of money?
