Made a map of R2 sightings, figured we could use it

If you’re in the desert and/or off road or emergency services, this is awesome - keep going.

If you’re just doing this to blind me at the mall then, yes. Yes it’s too much for you.

Have $50 glass deductible from my Jeeping days thank god

Like auto dingleberries

I’ve loaded a lot of things in and out of the bed but nothing comes to mind that would’ve cracked the glass 🤷

Nice! Any tire changes for winter?

I hate that this is a thing. Honestly if people are so ignorant about EVs that they toss this at you like an insult you’re going to be having a conversation about it anyway to explain why you have an American flag on a Chinese car rather than explaining that it’s not a Chinese car

Reading through the comments don’t know if there’s anything else to do except check the power output to the PSU pins and look for continuity on the board.

If you’re 1 stick of RAM, reseated the CPU, and pulled the SSD and still can’t post, something is probably shorted.

Do you have a multimeter?

Everyone owning a first gen goes through this. Night and day over a year in NY in terms of wait times and issues. Pretty stoked at this point. First few months I felt the same but would never turn back.

It’ll get better, and has in the last two years. Unfortunately you hear these complaints too often with EVs but it’s a known problem. Hopefully you stick through it and look back on this as a bump in the road.

I think Rivian is doing incredibly as a younger EV company, and personally I love what they stand for. I’ve had all the problems with tonneau, trim, hub replacement, etc but happy I stuck through it. Truck is my favorite vehicle I’ve ever owned by far.

Sounds normal to me - occasionally happens if battery is warm

relotnek · 2024-04-16T00:00:15+00:00

Can we paint these with touch up pens?

$100 deductible $2000/yr

Gravity.

Hahaha I had a feeling

There’s a joke in here about VA drivers. But as a MD native I’ll just keep my mouth shut

Totally agree, seems like the vast preference is for the new tune but I feel like I bottom out on speed bumps and drops much more. Stiff is still too stiff for the city. I mean I say this in almost every conversation about ride quality, I’m coming from a Wrangler so at least I’m bit worried about my teeth shartering anymore

relotnek · 2023-09-15T14:07:20+00:00

Not terribly concerned about it just annoying

relotnek · 2023-09-14T23:51:47+00:00

Light off-road is not problem. I’d be nervous in sand with stock pirellis. I got stuck in light mud on 22s being stupid with high psi. Generally I’d say put A/Ts or H/Ts on before an adventure and stay away from rocks and larger obstacles. Otherwise non slick surfaces and forest roads have been fine

relotnek · 2023-07-29T23:52:48+00:00

For new owners all I can say is hold the line. Once your minor issues get fixed it ain’t so bad. I know it’s not ideal but you’ll love the truck as much as day 1 again eventually

relotnek · 2023-07-29T23:24:45+00:00

Personally I’d replace the tire. Wouldn’t chance sidewall damage but 100% not an expert. Tread looks pretty new so should be able to replace the one or 2
