I wonder if some of these steps open sooner or later depending on your trade in status and options you selected when ordering? I'm pretty sure all my steps were open immediately.
Not sure, but it would be nice to get clarity on the process. The only steps that were open to me at the beginning were Title/Registration, Delivery Method, Trade-In, Rivian Care and Insurance. Title/Registration, Trade-In and Delivery Method were filled out/submitted right away. Insurance I can't really provide until I have a date but they said just to provide proof of existing insurance which I did. Beyond that, nothing else even though they confirmed the vehicle is on a train headed my direction as of last week.

The estimate is first week of August for a delivery date which is right around the corner so it would be nice to be able to schedule a date that I can work around. I will call them today so they can approve my payoff letter to see if that opens up the next steps in the process.

I'm in the same boat. They told me they'd set a delivery date when it's half way, in the midwest,.....Last time I looked at a map, Normal, IL is in the midwest....

Who are y'all bugging to get info on where your car is once you have a VIN? I'd love to know!
I was replying to the text message I got about starting my delivery process. The Costa Mesa, CA delivery team was very responsive through that thread.

What steps were you able to complete prior to getting the pickup date? Was everything available to you?

I am still waiting on schedule to open as a step. All my steps opened immediately initially. word from Rivian is it should arrive at SC this week. once it arrives, they will set the delivery.

Yes, everything was available. Some of it said that it was "upcoming" but as I completed steps the others populated. The only thing that showed as upcoming until today was the delivery.

Given that you are in Tucson, ours are probably on the same train. It will be interesting to see when it arrives.

I"m actually in Montana for a month so hopefully I'm dropping my R1S lease and picking up my R2 in Salt Lake on my way back.

Feels like Rivian maybe instructed the service centers to wait until PDI is done before scheduling for a bit since there were so many reschedules.

I'm picking up in Normal and they also said they can't schedule until PDI is complete.

Rivian must have heard me talking about them as before I even had a chance to contact them today, I received my auto scheduled pickup date of August 7th.

That train sure takes a while to get from Normal to AZ. I know this includes time for PDI, etc. Let's hope there are no issues upon delivery!

Rivian R1T R1S R2 Orders / VIN / Deliveries List Tracker + Stats 📊 Screenshot 2026-07-23 at 1.51.15 PM


Just finished the final paperwork, pickup scheduled for August 11th! Just 19 days left...! Can't come soon enough!

So the 4-8 week window was correct.

Invited: June 16th
Ordered: June 16th (4-8 week estimate given)
VIN Assigned: July 16th (4200 range)
Pickup: August 11th

Launch Green, 20 inch Wheels, Spare Tire


For those with Trade-In's; Rivian has my vehicle down at 40,300 miles and my rep says as long as I don't exceed 43k miles, the Trade-in offer stands till I do my pickup. Pretty generous.

How did you receive your scheduled pick up date? Text or Email? I ordered mine 4 days after you (6/28) and received my VIN on 7/15 so maybe I'll be scheduled for August 11. Who knows but it will be interesting. I'm in Arizona also.

You should get a text and email. It will also show up in your app when you go to the R2.
