Extremely well made video, this should be the standard of these UI deep dives. This answered every question I had (needing to touch a screen for every action in the vehicle while it is moving with zero physical buttons, no carplay integration). Saves me a trip to even think about looking at Rivian.
The charging amperage setting is good for when you're using a non-dedicated circuit to charge, or an older outlet. If you're on a circuit that's powering other things, using a lower amperage will ensure you don't trip a breaker. If the outlet is old, and not super trustworthy, a lower amperage will help ensure that the outlet doesn't get too hot and/or catch fire/melt. I've had to use that setting when charging on a 30A outlet with an EVSE that could draw 40A and didn't know have any setting to lower the amperage for the EVSE itself.
Hey Stephen, very informative video! Looking forward to your next trip. I’m 8,000 miles into a 5 week road trip with my family in my Tesla Model Y. We drove from California to Florida. Headed home now.
Awesome deep dive on the new UI! Have you made any progress getting the roof “spoiler” (I think technically they are vectors) caps available to buy? Do you have 3D print files you would sell (I have a bambu X1 Carbon, not sure if that’s big enough)? I just picked up a lightly used iKamper Skycamp Mini 3.0 for my R1T, a goal I’ve had for a while in large part due to your content. I even had someone in a parking lot ask if the tent was made by Rivian because it fits so well on our trucks, and they wanted to recommend it to their friend with an R1T. Anyways, thanks for the thoughtful content you make, and hopefully these slick (niché) aero inserts will be available sometime soon!
Thanks Sid! The data for the spoiler closeouts is complete and I’m working with my friend James to get the them printed with his larger 3d printer(They are close to 400mm in length) Once we have something thats repeatable and reliable I’ll definitely be ready to start selling them👍🏻
@@ChargeOverland that’s awesome! I’ll definitely buy them when available, though honestly I haven’t noticed much of a range hit at all with the iKamper “backwards” (it just looks so much better, both aerodynamically and aesthetically, that it really seems like the right way if bed height mounting-on any truck, for that matter).
I think with recirculate you can heat/cool the cabin faster but this will trap humidity so the windows can fog up a bit after awhile. I generally just use outside air most of the time👍🏻
How do you avoid toll roads, ferries, etc with the navigation? I couldn't find any settings for these, and I can't believe such a basic functionality is missing. Please prove me wrong!
Hi, just one question ; for the music, is it possible, when you connect your phone via Bluetooth, to access your music library and play music without directly using your phone ?
This video is extremely helpful. Thank you!
Thanks for watching 🙌🏻

Thanks! Happy to help👍🏻
I have been waiting for someone to do a video like this. Thank you sooo much!
You’re welcome!🙌🏻
I’m glad I found this one. I picked up R1T last Saturday and my guide didn’t even mention half of your coverage. Thank you!
Happy to help!
This is great, I've had my R1S for 9 months now and definitely learned a few great things.
Thank you for this. I just ordered a R1T, it is nice getting to learn all this before the new toy arrives.
Thank You, Stephen. Great Job!
Thanks!
Thank you so much for making this video!
Thank you for video! I learned so much! I have a Tesla looking to switch!
Awesome! Happy you found it helpful!
Great video. Hope to get a Rivian soon.
Amazing job, as always! Terrific production quality. Very thoughtfully done.
Thanks Adrian!🙌🏻

Sounds like an awesome trip! I’m sure you saw some cool stuff along the way. Thanks for checking out the video🙌🏻
Thank you
i don't own a rivian. and i won't for at MINIMUM a year but more likely two. still watching this whole thing lol.

In the climate section, is there a pros vs cons of using air from the outside compared to recirculate?
I think with recirculate you can heat/cool the cabin faster but this will trap humidity so the windows can fog up a bit after awhile. I generally just use outside air most of the time👍🏻

Does the navigation routing also suggest Tesla superchargers?
Yes you can set it to suggest Tesla chargers👍🏻
Will the front camera screen turn on when you approach an object?
Just the parking the sensors - you’d have to turn the cameras on manually. This is a good idea though!
Hi, just one question ; for the music, is it possible, when you connect your phone via Bluetooth, to access your music library and play music without directly using your phone ?
Sort of. You can see songs from the current playlist.
@@superspeed1 So you can only do this with playlists or the current album that’s playing and not with your whole music library ?
@@Victor-jm1se Current one I beleive.
@superspeed1 is correct at this point you can’t see your music library from the screen in the vehicle only the current song playing
