@SP_LimitReviews @R1Stephanie @Rivian @RANtracker @RivianUpdates @Hilbe @ChadMoran @TravisKetchum Too soon. You’re relying on FPL to flip that switch. 😳 By Memorial Day weekend.

@R1Stephanie @Rivian @Jimcgov @RANtracker @RivianUpdates @Hilbe @ChadMoran @TravisKetchum April maybe! 🤔

New @Rivian adventure network is actively being worked on here is West Melbourne FL. This is first charger below Daytona on the east coast! I will try to do weekly updates on this site! Stay tuned! @Jimcgov @RANtracker @RivianUpdates @Hilbe @ChadMoran @TravisKetchum @R1Stephanie @IAmSuburban

@SP_LimitReviews @Rivian @RANtracker @RivianUpdates @Hilbe @ChadMoran @TravisKetchum Much better job that I did @SP_LimitReviews ...haha Excited for this one.

@LivingInKaos @SP_LimitReviews @RANtracker @flrivianclub @Hilbe @RivianUpdates @RivianTrackr Considering they’re working off the second permit for this…it’s ok to wait longer.

@Jimcgov @SP_LimitReviews @RANtracker @flrivianclub @Hilbe @RivianUpdates @RivianTrackr Well, hopefully the power company moves faster there than over here.... Be prepared to wait some more...

Look what I spied in West Melbourne over the weekend. Finally under construction! No. I didn’t get a better pic. @SP_LimitReviews you’re up next. @RANtracker @flrivianclub @Hilbe @RivianUpdates @RivianTrackr

@SP_LimitReviews @RivianUpdates @RANtracker @flrivianclub @Hilbe @RivianTrackr Yeah. You can ALMOST get from New England all the way to West Palm on RANs once this one is live...but you'll pay 40-60% more in the process. We need one in the Jacksonville area to bridge the gap between Pooler and Daytona.

@RivianUpdates @Jimcgov @RANtracker @flrivianclub @Hilbe @RivianTrackr The sole one below Daytona

@SP_LimitReviews @RANtracker @flrivianclub @Hilbe @RivianUpdates @RivianTrackr @Rivian ...not to be confused with the Supercharger that it is literally right next to. That is a V2 Supercharger that we CAN'T use...

@SP_LimitReviews @RANtracker @flrivianclub @Hilbe @RivianUpdates @RivianTrackr This one has been a longtime coming. Two separate permits later...and it looks like all the equipment is on site. Only downside is it's only 6 dispensers. Now if @rivian can get their pricing figured out since there is a Supercharger at the Target across the street.

@evtech99 @Hilbe Spring does run through June 20th…js

@Hilbe It says available spring 2026 but it’s already spring 2026, so it’s not true? Or - Another day has passed and less likely to be true that it’s available in spring 2026?

Some R2 website updates today…what’s new?

Am I the only Gen 1 holdout that hates that Rivian killed the compass if you are driving slower than 5mph? @Rivian, can we get the compass back in the Gen 1s below 5mph? It was a great feature that helped us know where to line up the truck while dispersed camping in the woods.

@LivingInKaos That is wild! Definitely a teaching moment.

Fun times at the Oregon International Auto Show. Arrived this morning to find the truck trying to do it's best death scene. Displays wouldn't stay up, had trouble with the electric closures, etc. Got the infotainment to come back up briefly and got into settings to turn on show and tell and POOF ! Dead. As a door nail.... Had to survive most of the day manually opening the front doors from the inside (I had the forethought to roll the windows down). I tried to keep people from closing the frunk, gear tunnel, tail gate, but there were so many people at times eventually someone shut everything. After talking with the show detail crew that was in charge of vehicle intake, turns out the Fire Marshall told them to pull the fire loop on all the ev's.... Ummm... TOTALLY wrong thing to do. They pulled the Rivian at 8:09a and by the time I got there at 9:30a it was toast. Was finally able to get the folks running the show to allow Rivian to come in and fix it. The 12v was so dead, they had to replace it. Jumping it wasn't enough. And in the Gen 2, that requires removing the passenger seat, oh joy. The Tesla sitting next to us had the same issue. The Tesla tech had to replace the 12v battery, but when he was done, the vehicle was throwing all sorts of errors it shouldn't have. The Rivian guys were done and gone and the poor Tesla tech was still there. SOoooo, we are planning a lunch and learn between the Fire Marshalls office and Rivian Service so they can learn how to disable a vehicle without disabling a vehicle.... Obviously, they were bagging it off of their procedure for ICE vehicles, but for many EV's that's a death sentence. We've not had these issues the past 3 years... Have we digressed????

@Hilbe The wooden toys that Fisher Price makes for the big box stores are $20. Rivian has China make them and their $150 or $175.

No way the Treehouse is under $7,000. Look at the competition.

@Hilbe Considering it has built in fans, trick power via the crossbars, lights, outlets, a movie screen, projector, more real estate than most RTTs, and Rivian’s name on it, it’s going to cost most than $7,000.

@AustyUSA Way to be the guy that ruins it for everybody.

Am I the first to solve the Rivian R2 charge port maze?

@AmpdAdventures It’s good. I like their Pipe Dream.

Finally got to check this distillery out.

@R1Stephanie @LivingInKaos @Hilbe People are wilding out over Launch Greens new name…

@Jimcgov @LivingInKaos @Hilbe Lol It's like Clark Kent taking off his glasses to be Superman. No one knows they are the same person?

Rivian Green?

@ProtoKyle6 @Hilbe Not just towing…bike racks, gear racks, etc will all be in the way and potentially keep you too far away from the charger…

@Hilbe What % of R2s will be towing at least twice per year?

Passenger front - works at superchargers and great for towing. I will not relent.

@LivingInKaos @Hilbe Exactly. Am I reading the room wrong in that others think this is a new color?? This is a name change of Launch Green to Rivian green and essentially allowing people to go to their neighborhood paint store to buy a gallon.

@Hilbe Launch Green by any other name is Rivian Green :P

@Mikekantorski Or look at the placement of the RAN trailer spots…the dispenser is front driver. Now you have pull all the way into the traffic lane or not use it at all

@Mikekantorski The correct is the front passenger. Now you’ll have a hard time charging if you carry multiple bikes on a a Kuat or 1up.

This is the correct charging port placement. And it kills me that Rivian gave in to changing it.
