I'm actively negotiating the price for a demo Mach E now. Wish me luck!

Yeah, if you ordered last week, don't hold your breath for next year. Unless folks stop dropping like flies or Rivian figures out how to scale very quickly, you aint seeing it until 2023. And the former is more likely than the latter.Wish I had a timeline on when I'll get my R1S. Ordered last week. I've got some time before I really need a car, but that'll be early next year when my want switches to need.
You wonāt regret it! I got actual money for my 2012 Expedition that needed at least $4k of work done on it, and leased a Mach-E. Iāll either transfer it to my wife or swap it for the R1S when my turn comes.I'm actively negotiating the price for a demo Mach E now. Wish me luck!
That's hilarious. Solid commitment too!I bought my wife a super hot 2017 Chevy Bolt. Smoking deal! It was a fire sale!
excellent choice.Pulled the trigger on a low miles 2019 Raptor earlier this week! Happy so far!

Did the same on a 2018 back in 2019. Couldn't be happier. What a machine. It's the most comfortable and versatile truck I've ever driven. Almost bought a CPO MB SL550 but really needed a truck. Now I have the best of both worlds. My wife calls it my sports-truck!Pulled the trigger on a low miles 2019 Raptor earlier this week! Happy so far!
End of 2022 maybe Early 2023.I ordered a Volvo Care xc90 to hold us over. Extremely impressed with the car, though I wish we'd been able to get the T8 plug in hybrid. The Volvo Care lease seems like a great deal if the lease is only 5-8 months. Much less a great deal if we have to ride out the full 24 months...
So, can I ask readers on this thread what a sensible expected delivery date is for R1S LE holders, mid 2020 order? I had thought RJ's latest communication and guide contacts indicated that late LE holders like me should expect something in early 2022. But a few comments on this thread make me think that's naive. What is the latest thinking? (And please don't say "soon"!)
Kanundrum: thanks so much for your reply and your efforts on the forum more generally; I've benefited from them. I just 'liked' your reply, but I do not actually like the content! I trust your judgment, but what explains your estimate? Hasn't the whole thing been moved back six months (first deliveries June --> November) so if I was initially going to get my R1S at the end of 2021, now I'd be getting it six months later? Or is the logic just that after so many delays, you'd be crazy not to build in extra delays in any estimate at this point?End of 2022 maybe Early 2023.
