Rivian's Battery Estimation hasn't been the Most Accurate

Ever since I got my R1S, I've noticed that the battery range estimation hasn't been the best. Driving a Tesla for the last 3 years, it never had this kind of issue. During my last trip, the driver display shows 255mi remaining. My total trip (including 2 destinations) is 160mi so I believed I should be able to make it easily with a nice cushion. But the center display showed that I would arrive at first destination with 4mi remaining, and run out before the second destination! I knew this was false so I made the drive anyway, and arrived at second destination with 50mi remaining. If I understand correctly, the driver display range is simply the total rated range multiplied by SOC. That makes sense here, since my vehicle is rated for 370mi, 255mi is 68.9%. Coming from Tesla, I expect the number shown in the center display should account for factors like elevation, wind, traffic speed, etc. It's sad that my own mental estimation is better than Rivian's.

So this is just a short thread about a series I was streaming yesterday and I saw the Secret Service used Rivian R1S instead of their regular suburbans. I don't want to ruin the plot but it's really nice to see Rivian getting the desired recognition it deserves.

The other day, I saw a whole thread on Tesla Motors Club of spotting Tesla vehicles in Movies and TV Shows. Some of them were shocking that people noticed where you see a glimpse of the vehicle in the background for only a few frames of video. It's an entertaining thread and I don't think anyone was ever accused of being a plant in that thread.

I really hope this would be the start to us seeing Rivian's a llot more in movies and series. Especially the R1T in a Dwayne Johnson movie. That'd be so cool to watch.
