Spare and cross bars removed from my R1S order - April - June 23 delivery. Crossbars - meh. Spare? yeah I want that....That is strange. They removed my spare and cross bars after “confirming” my order with my guide. I can almost understand the crossbars, but a spare is not just extra gear to most. Kinda important.
Maybe they’re upgrading these things. It’s common for an end of use item to show out of stock before being updated.Configurator has been updated to change EPA estimates on the R1T and remove almost all of the adventure gear options.
New estimates are 289 / 303 / 328
Only thing left for Adventure Gear is the Underbody Shield and the Manual Tonneau cover.
Incidentally I have a confirmed configuration from late last month that has had all of the adventure gear removed. From the recovery gear to the spare tire to the crossbars. Ugh.
Yes but not a miss. Someone realized this would be the response. A poor decision . . . . Let's be real - I have slowed down checking my res and I still check 1x a week. Not a chance issue : )
If you have your 8-steps, they should be listed in your purchase contract.
@virgnia_rivian Did Rivian ask if you wanted to take the truck without the spare? Or just tell you it was ready but no spare would come with?
Our guide hand matched us to a VIN of an available truck in Normal, IL that matched our config. minus the spare. He didn't say specifically that the spare was holding us up from getting a VIN match, but he told us the supply chain issues.
Why are you looking at the current visualizer and not the configurator for your own pre-March pricing? Go in to your configuration and fuss with it….you don’t have to save the changes.
Weird.
At least for the cross bars and level 2 charger they have also raised the prices. Pretty lousy they do this with no explanation. Poor business.
Mine was removed and price reduced.It’s interesting that in my confirmed configuration they removed the spare but didn’t change the price. I guess I pay for it now but get it later.
That's a possibility, but poor planning and execution. An SKU change to a customer configuration due to inventory revisions should be transparent to the end user's order, and not screw Rivian co-workers by triggering thousands of guide contacts with customers asking "WTF".
