  1. Paint color commitment...

    starting a meaningless thread to have a new one to obsess over while waiting for some "Guidance" So how committed are you to your Configured paint color? If told by your Guide that a change to paint color would bump in your delivery by a solid month, what colors would you be willing to accept...
  2. Wonder if Rivian's lending R1T's for "secret" Auto/EV publishers or Auto/EV-bloggers to do reviews?

    Curious if right now there are those very lucky, select few out in the real world getting a chance to examine closely and test drive the R1T right now (or very soon). It's quite common for vehicle makers to lend out "near production level" rides to selected reps allowing them to experience it...
  3. MT article - Ford will make its own EV batteries

    interesting article just dropped on MT https://www.motortrend.com/news/ford-ion-park-ev-battery-plant/
  4. Guidebook for Guide engagements

    The anticipation is palpable... can you believe it, Guide contacts will begin so very soon! Is there a thread somewhere capturing "Things we still don't know"? That should be the guidebook for matters to get clarified during Guide engagements. Anyone have a link because I couldn't find it. I...

    something for the R1S crowd https://www.motortrend.com/news/gmc-hummer-ev-suv-tesla-model-x-rivian-r1s-specs-comparison/
  6. Rivian Images - interesting tidbits & Launch Green !?

    While looking at Rivian site (for the millionth time) this image in the Rivian Guides Storyline caught my eye... first for the detail features one can see on the battery 'skateboard' ... then I noticed the production line in the background... and did I spot LAUNCH GREEN ! (probably not) post...
  7. Insightful video on Aging Tesla platform batteries

    Recently posted. This 'Gruber Motors' seems very knowledgeable on EV battery tech - especially Teslas (obviously)
  8. Rivian Chat session tid-bits

    Anyone else use the built-in Chat interface on the Rivian - Support Contact webpage? I did for the first time just now. I'll just post the copy & paste that I saved. Nothing earth-shattering here, but at least some of it goes beyond "more info to follow soon" canned response. If others give...
  9. Let's talk about insurance...

    Anybody have a legit quote yet? Planning to contact my insurer GEICO, expecting to hear something like, "what's a Rivian? never heard of it. it's not in our system." Honestly wondering how the insurance equation will get solved in time to influence a buying decision. I mean for some folks...
  10. Hydraulic roll-control & other FAQ tid-bits

    Somehow in all the hunting I've done through the Rivian website I missed this very cool technical feature. Anyone else not know about it? Checkout the FAQ's. Maybe there's something new for you https://rivian.com/support/vehicles
  11. Vent, B!tch & Moaning for the mis-"Guided"

    I spend way too much time watching this forum. Its a sickness I freely admit it. ? Most threads seem to be 'stale' recently, so figured why not have one that members can just type-out their gripes, frustrations, angst-ridden sarcastic comments while we all "patiently" (:rolleyes:) wait for our...
  12. (re)Charging etiquette

    This forum community has lots of electric-vehicle savvy members, so forgive a "newbie" question here about full BEV best practice for recharging. My very limited insights come from appliance level Ni batteries that often discourage too frequent recharging, especially for limited discharged...

  14. Rivian roll-out humor...

    So I wrote this made-up chat session today in another thread. Got enough reactions to my humor and spoofing that I'm starting a thread with it. Do recognize this is in the Off-Topic section. Hoping most everyone chills on this thread and certainly don't take anything too seriously. Others...
  15. Will Rivian offer sophisticated Alarm/Security (like T's Sentry)

    Tried a Search on this topic. Only a few random hits from older threads (unless I just missed it). Is Rivian offering more advanced vehicle alarm/perimeter monitoring akin to Tesla's Sentry? Perhaps this is another lingering topic on the "still waiting for answers" list, so my apology if so.
  16. "Launch Green" paint stand-ins

    Like many, my LE Reserved R1T (or other's R1S) presently configured with "Launch Green" paint. There's been enough images of Forest Green in shade mistaken for Launch Green spotted. Until Rivian unveils the LG paint - almost surely to be different than Configurator shows it - lets take a poll...
  17. BMW X5-Xdrive45e Plug-in Hybrid while I wait for Rivian

    Ordering a 2021 BMW X5 Xdrive45e plug-in hybrid to enjoy while wating for Rivian to be deep into reservation deliveries. I reserved mine only a couple months ago putting me a bit past 30,000 reservations if I'm interpreting the data right. I know that Rivian is "for real" and these amazing...
