I've been using a Wallbox charger for my Bolts for the past 6 years so I plan on just getting the adaptor to keep using that. Second using your utility's program to get a charger though. Here in Florida not only does FPL include installation, they give you rock bottom off peak charging rates...

I had a nice experience with Rivian insurance today. Called to see if they could budge off the high rate they'd quoted me and the rep was super honest. Said Nationwide doesn't take into account driving mileage and that since I've been with Progressive for a while they'll be inclined to give me...

I'm getting a tire repair kit. I've only had one complete blow out in the past six years and even that AAA was able to get me taken care of.

Ah, nice. I contacted Progressive (my current insurer) and they said to reach back out in 24 hours once they add it to the quote. I did the same as you at first and put 2026. Similar car/driver situation as well.

Oh, this is interesting...I just went back and looked at the quote they gave me and they made the starting date the 26th. I wonder...

I tried getting a quote through Progressive with the VIN Rivian provided today and noticed they don't even have the R2 listed. Rivian's in-house coverage (through Nationwide) is significantly higher than what I'm currently paying. Anyone have any luck getting quotes from other insurance...

Got my order invite and put the deposit in today! Which is good because my Bolt lease is up on Friday.

Oops! Apologies for posting this in the wrong spot.

I mean, I am looking to do more road trips than off-road trips...so maybe it is the best option. But yes, I'm hoping there'll be good aftermarket options when I eventually need them in 3-ish years.

Man, I was so excited to order my R2 this morning I didn't even think about tires. I should've checked this thread first! I went with the 21' because there wasn't an upcharge (and my test drive was on 21' and I liked 'em). But having chewed through a bunch of EV tires on my RWD Bolt, I know...

Got my invite today! I was a Feb 2026 reservation, so very late, but indicated that I was OK with/ the Launch Package and verified with them that my Bolt lease is ending on Friday, so I'm assuming that pushed me to the top.
