This ought to stir the pot some.... on the topic of newly received Rivian "owners" flipping them for a tidy quick profit, what do you think is the smartest move in the marketplace right now? Question posed for either R1T or R1S. For the time being, let's assume the vast majority of re-sells...
Sitting on a L.E. R1T reservation presently with a May/June delivery window. Awaiting a Guide contact so I can ask this very question, "What happens if I choose an R1S instead of R1T sticking with a Launch Edition?" I do expect to hear it has a delaying effect but wonder if a Guide will know...
glanced at my phone during lunch and saw a Rivian email with "First Mile" in the subject line.. got all giddy inside! invited to experience the R1T firsthand that comes to your place (or wherever you pick) with a 45-min. time slot. appointment options were scattered across April so picked next...
There are lots of specific delivery window threads (Mar/Apr, May/June, etc.) with members commenting on news, speculation and what-not. Earlier ones are peppered with reports of guide contacts, actual deliveries.
Figured a dedicated thread about those who MISSED the 2022 delivery window(s)...
With the 'excitement' of our Configurators having the original lower pricing restored, I was curious about the timing for Rivian to reinstate in our homepage a vehicle canceled out of frustration/anger in early March. Here's the response from CS. First time I heard about having to place a...
Curious, anyone that Cancelled spontaneously with last week's pricing fiasco seen their $1,000 deposit back into whatever account/card used? Been keeping an eye on mine and nothing yet. I know they said about a week and in Rivian-speak that probably means a month. Wondering if others are...
For those with poll withdrawal symptoms here's yet another way to slice up the topic of real Deliveries.
Please only VOTE if you ACTUALLY have signed a Purchase Contract and doing or done with 8-Step process.
You can still be awaiting your precious new ride, but please limit voting only if...
Read in a few posts that most (all?) near-term or confirmed deliveries have Black Mtn interior choice in common. Anyone aware of a OC or FE interior vehicle - other than oddball demo or employee ride - presently in the March-April promised delivery period or a true pending delivery other than...
Wish there was a factory winch option. With plenty onboard electrical power, you'd think Rivian engineers would recognize the need. Clearly they figured out how to do it at least once. At least add to the "Offroad Upgrade" a factory pre-wired kit so all the connections, fuses, etc. are...
anyone see or post about this article? the video is obviously 'vaporware' CGI

Figured many will find interesting tid-bits in this article even if not cross-shopping the F-150 Lightning.
Eerily similar factory photos to what Rivian's IL facility looks like (all bright, clean, well-lit)

Odd that we're assured first customer deliveries happen in two weeks or less time... but still no Rivian app release? ?
I'm sure CS would say they are still finalizing it, yada yada. But honestly, shouldn't it be out already to download and mess around with.. Especially since Rivian...
surprised there wasn't already a celebration thread announcing that "s00n" has finally arrived (or damn soon)
make this a place to express yourself about it.. and let those early-adopters know how jealous the rest of us are.
Thought I'd rattle the cage by raising this topic. Who's contemplating a quick-flip on their Launch-edition Rivian R1T or R1S down the road for a cool twenty grand or more? Surely this crossed some people's mind particularly now in the global situation of automotive shortages. A good...
found this on FB. lots of speculation but still something to watch.
I'm dubious about how the $60K Lariat jumped to $74K - since Ford has not published pricing for Options.
For example, it surprises many that the standard F-150 ProPower setup can jump from 2.4 to 7.2 kWh for only $750 bucks...
So in the past couple weeks, and for sure in the past few days I've noticed a common recurring phrase in the Blogosphere and YouTubeiverse.
"when Rivian begins deliveries this Summer..."
See or hear it once, its just a turn-of-phrase. Yes, Summer officially begins on Sunday June 20th so...
You may be sick of hearing about the 'Lightning' in a Rivian forum (no thanks to Rivian's shitty communications team), but this article had enough substantive info that I figured others might find the read interesting.
The least expensive $40k 230-mile capable trim is going to find a ton of...
