I wonder about this as well. Not only from a vehicle quality standpoint but would I end up in a similar situation as I do with my Tesla, where there may be only a few people who are trained to work on an older Rivian?
@rvnappolis how much did that warranty cost, if you don't mind my asking?
I’m in Richmond. Have a 2014 Model S and have started looking for a replacement. Considering Rivian.
Anyone have an opinion on the Richmond service center? Hear that’s the biggest gripe. SC’s were hit or miss.
Thanks. I read that article a bit ago. The downside was reliability issues. I had mostly minor issues with my Model S but never anything catastrophic. I think CR originally gave the Model S its highest ever rating then trashed it maybe 2 years later. So you take everything with a grain of salt.
Thanks everyone for your thoughtful responses.
My wife has set a budget where I'm going to have to go used if I get one. No problem. Seems like low mileage used inventory is pretty healthy but it also looks like I should focus on Gen 2. Don't need serious off-road capability but will likely...
First post, sorry for the doozy question. I'm sure I'll get some passionate responses.
Owned a Model S since 2014 and while it's been incredibly reliable even at 154,000 miles the time is coming to replace it. I love EV's, my experience despite crazy Elon mode has been mostly positive...
