You're just asking people to make a big decision on switching without having any information about when it might be coming and how advantageous it would be to switch from a timing standpoint. I don't understand why that is such an unreasonable expectation to ask of them. If they were planning...
You literally can't give a potential window? "Earliest delivery would be XYZ date and latest potential delivery would be XYZ date depending on how many switch." Right now you're just shooting in the dark on when it would come. If they tell me April then I'd probably say yes. If they say...
I should add that until they reveal they are having troubles with developing the max pack, all we know right now is they chose to change timelines arbitrarily which can't be chalked up to manufacturing delays or teething issues. So you cant' blame it on the risk of dealing with new...
I am a little surprised at the negativity towards max pack holders who are upset. At the time of Launch Edition, Rivian was still saying max pack starting January 2022. That alone should be reason to have a little sympathy. Yes deliveries were starting to get delayed, but that should have...
Totally get the big picture and less worried about my truck. I would presume North America will be their primary market, especially given how important trucks and SUVs are here. I'm pondering what they plan to do to increase sales beyond the 71k they have preordered. No doubt these things...
One question I have is where are they going to get more orders from? I know there have been rumors of a third consumer market vehicle in the near future. But with 71k preoder backlog and 100k vans going to Amazon, that's only 170k vehicles while the article says Normal/Georgia combined will...
It's still disappointing as an early reservation holder (March 2019) that is waiting for the 400-mile battery pack, that I'm unable to select launch green as a color. I really wish they'd reconsider. It would be one thing if they held out so many LEs for both size batteries and I missed the...
I will still wait for my R1T, but as one of the very early deposit holders, I still feel a bit stung by the fact that anyone who wanted launch edition could skip the line. I'm waiting for the 180kwh battery so opted to not go with launch edition. Everyone's delivery timeline is being pushed...
I configured basically the same thing except went with El Cap Granite. Is getting road tires a bad idea with off road package? I assume All Terrain are best for off road but which one is best for range on road? Road tires I presume?
I always have preferred the darker gray like El Cap as most my vehicles have been that color. But there's still something I love about the standard LA Silver on the R1T. Probably because it's the color we've seen the most and I'm just so used to that being the R1T color. I like how it helps...
Thanks for these comments. I agree the delays are frustrating but this is hard stuff and selling direct to consumer is still in its infancy practically speaking. I also agree I'm okay waiting on the configurator and don't really care how close or far it is from delivery date. It's the...
Yeah not sure what the setup will be. He made it sound like there could be an option for Rivian users to have access regardless if they're an Amazon customer. Perhaps they will work with Amazon to make them available to Rivian owners as part of the deal for building out the infrastructure. He...
