thx. I see the post back in 2024 with regards to the physical design deltas preventing the battery composition change. Didn't know if it would be technically possible (and cost effective in the long run) to switch to the 4695s and improved cooling but maintain the same package.

Was hoping for R2 pack design and BMS transition. Can see rationale for not having this until architecture change though. While I love the chairs, for me the bench option is only in black interior is tough. If there was some sort of built in cargo divider that if you folded the third row...

Let’s just state the obvious…. The 20” 100% get more range because of wheel design and more importantly, because BFG >>> Pirelli :)

I wish OoS and RivianTrackr showed the Energy Monitor/Usage screen like StateOfCharge did when he got ~260miles on 20" AllTerrains in a mostly 70mph test. Yes it was in CO, yes it had regen, yes it was at 70F with a higher climate control... but I would have loved to seen the breakdown of how...

In 2021, the consumer would have got a $200/month reduction from federal $7500 incentive alone. The lease rate would be around 8% to equal your $525/mo combining both the federal incentive with the customer down payment. Just the federal incentive alone and a 4% APR with the same depreciation...

https://www.rivianforums.com/forum/threads/monthly-leasing-financing-offers-incentives-r2-r1s-r1t.59768/post-1057863 @Jonger1150 - Pulled this out of the sticky for conversations... You are 100% correct regarding the lease rate being high. 3% though is the polar opposite... Direct competitor...

For the OP listing suspension and frame, I could see it adding up quick with multiple replacements of suspension components, shafts... then tack on a welded subframe to cast aluminum gen2 replacement (perhaps OP couldn't warranty this even though a known issue). Add in multiple tire sets. All...

This is correct... normally the best incentives are at the end of the quarter. Best deals I've seen werre the Feb/Mar deals when 0/60, 0.49/72 financing was offered. Lease was ok... but nothing like the inclusion of the $7500. Note that IF there perhaps is R1 gen3 around the corner, there...

If “this” refers to both the residual values and the money factor (APR) portions of a lease, yes Chase will provide base values. From Rivian’s perspective, they may influence the APR portion of the lease with Chase By working with them or applying a markup. In normal mfr/dealer model, the...

Note that I have a sticky that I try to update with the current lease, financing, and random discount offers at the top of this section. That said, the $7500 wasn’t a true Rivian incentive… it was just a federal incentive passed down which was excellent when leasing a PHEV/EV (if purchasing a...

A few changes for offers: Order any new R1S or R1T between July 23, 2026 and July 27, 2026 and take delivery by August 31, 2026 and get a $1,000 discount to the vehicle price applied to your order. R1 Tri financing reduction across the board to 0.99/0.99/1.49/2.99 through 7/31 and taking...

So need to record the turn signal volume before and after lol

Technically, thats on the ebay seller for misrepresenting the item delivered. kind of sucks. I would contact them prior to installation. $0.01

Why yes…. YESTERDAY was 6/30. June incentives good through delivery on 6/30, was 0.99%

Trend Analysis: R1 - Residuals down and APR up. Worst case. Increase in inventory incentives on some Dual/Tri R2 - Slightly lower residual and APR down. Same payment
