For a long time I've been considering removing the Camp Kitchen from my 4/19 order to get the price down. The only reason that I hadn't was that I figured I could sell it for at least 5K. So I guess I'm not too upset about this move. On the bright side, it certainly sounds like the Max Pack...
I've got a 4/19 Max reservation (with Camp Kitchen) and admit to wondering whether I should reconfigure to a Large (without CK). But I don't think Rivian will cancel the Max because if they do, depending on what a comparable Silverado prices at, I think a lot of preorder holders will just...
It would seem like the best place for a spare is on some sort of a cage mounted on the crossbars over the bed (or for wood cutting use, on the cab roof) (Has anyone found one of these, and if so what brand?)
Of course, a cage over the roof will cut range, and over the bed won't work with a...
As I understand it, YES, you do. Not because of the income limit but because of some of the other requirements on battery sourcing. Rivian vehicles at present will fail to meet the new tax credit eligibility requirements on multiple grounds. As a result it is best to try to qualify under the...
20s, 21s, 22s ... what are the advantages and disadvantages of different tire sizes?
I'm a Prius and Dodge Dakota owner awaiting my R1T max pack in 2023, and I'm not an expert on the finer points of car technology, as I'm an environmentalist mainly concerned about fuel efficiency. (I use...
I think that Rivian and all EV manufacturers are going to plan to do a tremendous amount of lobbying to get some of the EV tax credit provisions adjusted, but not until AFTER the Inflation Reduction Act has been signed into law.
They know that they can't afford to mess up passage and signing...
Here is the message I sent to the White House. I'm also going to send it to my Senators, who ought to be interested as I live in Illinois, home of the Rivian factory.
----------
I am so thrilled and grateful that the Inflation Reduction Act has passed the Senate, and am praying that it will...
We should all contact the White House and ask Biden to delay signing the bill for a week or two after the House passes it so that all the EV manufacturers can get their binding agreements written and out to us and we can get them signed. I'm pretty sure Biden wants to see as many EVs on the...
From what I understand - having read the whole thread - I agree. One thing that was mentioned in one post that I am not sure of, however, is whether a configuration of $91.5K (max pack, Camp Kitchen, a few adventure package options, 4/19/19 reservation date) will qualify for the existing $7500...
I was in Lightning wave 2 and configured one with the max pack battery (but the lower towing capacity package) on January 29th, planning to flip it once the R1T max pack came out in 2023 if I liked it better. Never having flipped anything, however, I started getting cold feet and ended up...
After reading all posts (took a while!) I have a few thoughts. BTW, my pre-order was placed in 4/19: an R1T with Adventure package, max pack, camp kitchen, underbody protection and 20" wheels. Oh, and I'm a stockholder, at the IPO. I hadn't cancelled but was figuring I would end up with the...
One addition to that excellent rule: cancel nothing.
Kicking myself over having cancelled my Lighting extended range Lariat order last week after deciding I would wait one year for the extra 100 miles of range on the Rivian for $10K more. Wish I'd known it would be $27K more! Definitely...
