Just a PSA for any other Portland people who have changing their configs regularly like I have (in part) because they haven’t been able to see the R1s close up…

I have dropped by the Saint Helens Rd location a couple times and, to a person, every employee that I have talked with has been super friendly and helpful. Earlier this week, they had a number of trucks and I was able to walk around and see about 6 different colors in person. (Solidified my commitment to Forest Green.) When I went there earlier this week, I was even able to take a look inside an R1S that they had on the lot. I don’t think this is something that they do regularly but was fortunate that they happened to have one available that I was able to take a peek at.

All that to say, I just wanted to give a shout-out to the employees that I had the pleasure of interacting with on both visits. Wish I had names but they were all great. Just further reinforces my decision to make my next vehicle a Rivian - one sign of a good company is the hiring of good people.

Feb 2021 reservation holder for R1S, Adventure Pkg. Hoping to be one of the lucky ones be surprised about an early delivery. Won’t be holding my breath but do have?.

Hrm... May need to drop by even before my truck arrives (shakes fist at train-with-no-tracking) to poke around.

Is the lot sloping down to the left? Hopefully not more suspension leveling issues.

The lot is very uneven. Slopes every which way.

My delivery is now set for Monday. Passed all inspections today, but Monday was the earliest delivery available. (Wouldn't let me pick up at the service center - at best they'd meet me at the Montgomery Park building a mile from the service center; but that requires them to have people deliver it and return, so no time benefit over delivery to my house.)

I saw two El Caps with AT wheels, one is visible to the right of the green one in the "nose visible" picture. Could be yours in that pic!
