I understand this for the long term, but for their first deliveries they probably want to limit risks.

Hate to be the one to say it, but being an hour from a service center may put you out of range to be contacted at this point :/ That's not actually as close as you'd think and they may only be contacting people much closer. I have a Guide contact and am ~7min from the service center in South San...

This should be reassuring for anyone who was worried that Rivian wouldn't meet their Sept delivery date. They are definitely going to have cars in customers' driveways before they IPO.

I think it would be very smart to put in a preorder now before Rivian starts getting tons of press. You may actually be close to the "front of the line" (depending on your location and configuration) after Rivian launches and the attention drives (pun intended) more people to reserve en masse.

It sounds to me that everyone with delivery for this year has been contacted. There hasn't been a delivery date I've heard past "End of November" for anyone. So maybe after that people with 2022 deliveries will start hearing from people.

I just want to say how appreciative I am of you providing all this information to us. It's an awesome community contribution and the info you shared was well thought out, detailed, and easy to understand. Hurrah to you!

lol, that was me. I shared the pics in this thread too :rock:

Yes but what about these pictures from my Guide? Looks muuuuuuuch better in these pictures tbh.

I agree with pretty much everyone else here, but want to say just say that the single thing that would drive me crazy would be a bad, slow, or stuttery infotainment experience. I have a 2016 4Runner right now and the infotainment experience is just... so bad that it's a driving (pun intended)...

Lol your assumptions suck. One of my closest friends was a Sr Engineer at SpaceX for years. I've eaten there multiple times, saw the Dragon capsule, was on the manufacturing floor, etc etc SpaceX is amazing. Tesla is amazing. That does not mean I need to like Elon's personality and it certainly...

So, I didn't say anything about his intelligence or his success. He very obviously has both. I said I didn't like him (and didn't elaborate further, so anything you think I mean is an assumption) and then I criticized a specific action he took in detail. In fact, I even purposefully glossed over...

Weird comment. I don't like Elon Musk, at all, but Tesla isn't under my skin as a company. What irks me about his comment is that it creates a perception that Rivian doesn't know what it's doing because Musk is a subject matter expert. I think that's irresponsible and uncool to sow that...

[Crossposting from Reddit because I hate this so much] This is extremely annoying IMHO. Elon says he's here for other EV manufacturers, but we really only see him being snarky on Twitter about how he accomplished the impossible or trash talking. Whatever. Putting Elon out of the way for a...

Suuuuper cool that the company is reaching out about this. I've worked in Community Management for over a decade, so I care a lot about CS and this world. What I would want to know or ask would be... How is Rivian understanding the expectations of its community? Is it through Guides...

FWIW I think it's great they invited pre-order holders h especially to see what they should focus on for test drives in September! I'm just salty about launch green haha that was a very bad comms / CS fail IMHO

Haha okay, this is pretty cool that we finally got to see Launch Green. And I'm super happy for Duck... BUT... I've been in contact with my Guide for over a month now and Launch Green has been on my shortlist of thing I've wanted to see as a preorder holder (since 2018). My Guide keeps telling...

I'm just gonna say it... XM is trashy and it should die and no lux car should have it as a persistent option and it doesn't make sense to have the hardware to receive it and I hate XM and I'm happy I don't ever have to see it in my upcoming truck.

I wish I was!

Hey! I feel personally attacked... I'm a grower, okay?

XM is still a thing? 0_0
