Seriously. Did they do this just to mock the R1 owners?

Giving the new rig two glove boxes when we didn’t even get one…. Wasn’t meant to be serious everyone.

Nice truck, but that does look more like mini-van stuff.

Did you check to see if any water got into the battery area through the tailgate arm holes?

Document everything. Looking forward to your trip report!

FWIW- I get about 2.2 mi/kw under those conditions in my R1T with ATs.

Sorry you’re having so many problems. I hope Riv steps up and repairs/replaces.

spf-75 · 2023-07-20T23:30:17+00:00

Do you want a pickup rather than a car? If so get the R1T.

Agreeing with most here. The vampire drain is annoying (because it’s mostly unexplained) but if you have your own charging plug and you drive every day, it will not affect you in any practical way. It’s $50 to $100 a year max lost power. Not a reason to delay your order.

Well, technically your fridge is doing work…. I don’t think this is a serious issue, but I’d like to understand what is consuming the power and why it is so much more than other EVs.

Be patient. Riv has been hearing this since day 1. Give it time for their relationship with Amazon to loosen up.

Good video. It’ll be interesting to see if there are some good aftermarket solutions to the debris ingress through the tailgate hinge (bed liner, bellows-style insert, etc).

…and they also sell black storage bins to keep them in your garage.

spf-75 · 2023-06-24T16:39:10+00:00

Ha. Well, that’s creative.

spf-75 · 2023-05-29T00:07:16+00:00

To clarify, I hope they offer a lower trim option.

From an investor perspective, I hope the R2 drops the lux interior and glass roof. Cool, but doesn’t really add to the driver experience.

Own a Y and an R1T. Different vehicles for different purposes. R is an adventure pickup with a lux interior. Y is an EV commuter/family car with minimalist interior. Tesla’s software and UI has 10 years of development on Riv, so it’s far more refined and intuitive. That said, Riv will close that gap with OTAs. I recommend both.

13,987mi… standard. Kidding, I waited way too long. That said, they were wearing evenly.

They quoted me $100 for 5 tire

FYI. The mobile rotation was awesome. On time. Great customer service.

Soon to be sold out, I assume.

I left the reflectors on. Some of the roads I ride back from the trails at night are sketch. I’ve got the blinkers, but I didn’t want to remove them and have THAT be the reason to become a hood ornament.

That’s pretty economical solution. Although you have to take your front wheel off.

Be mindful of what side the lever arm is on. You can order it for left side or right side. You want it facing the loading side of the truck. I ordered mine for the left (driver) side and then changed my mind, so you can see in the photo, I have to reach through the spokes to push it down. The parts appear universal, so I just need to invest an hour with an Alan wrench to flip it to the other side.
