I just watched a bearded tesla guy video that posted this morning. He shows that it comes with a single jack adapter in the rear cargo area under the floor. I've linked to that part of the video:

To be fair, that's the way they look (to me at least) in all pictures. I get that it's a look -- it's just not one I'm fond of, especially on a vehicle with off road pretensions. I don't need my R2 to look like a "donk."

You could look in the side mirror and see if it's open

I read a little further the "Adjusted lease balance" is the "Adjusted Capitalized Cost" minus the sum of all accrued monthly Depreciation" for each monthly period before termination. Now I just need to figure out what the "monthly depreciation" is. They don't make this easy. It seems there...

The lease agreement says: "if you or we end this lease before the beginning of the final monthly period... we will assess an early termination charge equal to the Adjusted Lease Balance minus the Vehicle's Fair Market Value. .... the Early Termination Charge will not exceed the sum of all...

I think this is the wisest advice. The tires can, and will, be changed. It makes no sense to make the purchase based on the OEM tire fitted to the rim.

Another thing to consider -- since the R2 likely has a smaller battery than the R1, it might charge "faster" 10-80% just because there's less Kwh to put into it.

Here are my rankings: Catalina Cove Forest Green Glacier White Esker Silver Half Moon Grey Launch Green Borealis Midnight That said, if Rivian Blue was available -- that would be my #1 (it's what I have on my R1S). Red Canyon would be #2.

That's doesn't mean much. 215kw is the peak charging speed. How long does it hold that rate? I'm not saying the R2 charges faster -- I haven't read anything regarding its charging curve. That said, even if the R2 has the same peak charging rate, it could easily charge faster if it holds that...

The problem is where to hide it. On R1 it's hidden under the ridge for the radiator opening. There's no similar opening on R1 as the opening is below the front bumper. I assume they figured this was the most elegant option.

All of you saying you like Borealis.... Have you actually seen one in person? One of my neighbors has a Borealis R1S and 90% of the time it just looks black. The light has to hit it the correct way for it to look purple. It's not quite the COLOR option I'd thought it was from photos.

Report back, if you don't mind. I haven't been invited to order yet and will be choosing the light interior, so I won't be calling just yet.

I'm a first day reservation holder and will be in a similar situation as my R1S lease runs through October of 2027. I figure I'll just call Rivian and see about ending the lease early -- I'm willing to pay a penalty. I should note that I've read through the lease agreement and while it says...

Yeah, in a week it seems like there's only one person on this entire forum who has gotten their R2.

Between people refusing to buy due to lack of radio inclusion and those who won't buy without physical door levers in the back seat, my number should be coming up sooner than later.
