I talked with my Guide and have been told I am matched to a VIN! I was told it'd be a few days before being invited to start the "Digital Purchasing Process." Is that delay what others have experienced?

My charger arrives tomorrow, 8 steps opened 1/22.

Did you get an estimated delivery date when your 8 steps opened? My guide is still saying 6-8 weeks for CA delivery of a newly produced R1S, wondering how your "informal" Feb 7 date aligns with their initial delivery estimate.

Did your Guide match you to a specific VIN or did you just get an email stating you are ready for 8-Steps? I signed the PBA yesterday after being matched by my Guide but was told a few days for 8-steps, which seems a bit out of the experiences others have seen.

I just emailed my guide:

Me:
Didnt know with the week back in full swing if you had any update on the delivery (the 8 step website still shows step 5 as the pending step and thus wont unlock 8, so no mention of 2/7 officially)

I know there's a Cincinnati service center planned - whats the timeframe and is the closest at this point Cleveland?

Guide:
Great questions! Delivery is still looking like 2/7 at the latest, but once the vehicle is done with its pre-delivery inspections, our delivery team will reach out to you to finalize a date that works best with your schedule. Beyond that, I don't have any further updates just yet.

I don't have a timeline on the Cincinnati service center either, but I will keep an eye out for you. Right now, Cleveland will be the closest and it is where your vehicle is right now!

----

so just try reaching out. I've had nothing but positive interactions with my guide

My 8 steps are open and I have a VIN; I got an automated email about beginning the purchase process before my guide let me know I was matched.

I'm not quite following. Did your guide tell you what your VIN is? Or just that you've been matched to a VIN (to be revealed later)? Do you know NN or PN (MY22 or MY23)?

When I said I was flexible on color I got a call and told what was available that met my other criteria. I picked one, was sent a PBA with the new configuration and told I was Matched to a VIN and should get 8-Steps in a few days.
It’s the delay on 8-Steps that has me wondering. Also, I was not given the actual VIN but told it was for a 2023.

Need more info. Are you trading with Rivian on your E350? Can you take a day off to make the round trip to the Cleveland SC?

You've got Electrify America DC fast chargers in Mansfield and Columbus. I'd be nervous about making the Cleveland to Cincinnati drive, in the winter, in a brand new EV, without stopping for some charge en route.
