Researching a Rivian?
Start with an owner's honest notes.

I took delivery of a 2026 R1S Dual Max in Las Vegas this March. Great vehicle so far, rough service record, and I write up both here. Nobody sponsors this site, and Rivian has no say in what goes on it.

2026 Rivian R1S Dual Max — 90 Days of Ownership Notes

Home charging on NV Energy's EV rate, the Sound & Vision system, tire choices, the software quirks, and a service record that's eaten more than a third of my first 90 days. All of it's in here, good and bad.
