Standard+ owners lets pressure Rivian into unlocking the pack :-)

[narmstrong79]

Sine us Standard+ owners are lugging around a large pack, and with the recent launch of the of the gen 2 configurations. Lets pressure Rivian into giving us a free unlock of the rest of our pack. It's unlikely but it can't hurt to ask Link

I took ownership 4/27

Yes, please.

They aren’t going to do it for free. Thats easy money in the table for the company.

Likely true, but the install base of standard+ ( not talking about those with the standard). It's not that much money on the table and it a great gesture.

Is it a great gesture or is it a slap in the face for the other owners who spent the money to have their full battery available?

Sure...and let's ask for free upgrade to 22"s while we're at it.......
seriously ???? SMH

Tesla offered to unlock the remainder of my battery for 2k about 18 months after my purchase.

I purchased a Model S 60 that was a 75kWh battery software locked. The vehicle was 7k less than a 75 so I thought the 2k was well worth it. They also changed the software and exterior badging as well to reflect the model was a 75. Added 5k to the bluebook value once completed, I am happy I did it.

Are you going to ask for performance dm while you’re at it?

Rivian isn't a charity if you're interested in the company surviving the free shit isn't a real topic. Deals are one thing free hurts everyone involved.

I paid for the 22's. An equal build 25 with The included 22s and large pack is < $2k more.

Also, are wheel upgrades a software unlock? I'm not suggesting they give us any hardware. I'd paid for the heat pump if it was offered.

I paid for the performance upgrade, and that is still a paid for upgrade. Standard+ to large is the only thing I'm suggesting.

It hurts no one, it's a software unlock. It's an OTA. No hardware or labor needed.

Famous last words. All businesses should operate this way. Do they deserve a return? Good companies don't operate using that as the decision criteria.

So you should've paid for it to be unlocked when you bought the truck then.

Nah, seems like a waste of money, I already have more than enough range. I bought what I needed not to show off how high my price tag was
