  1. R1S first look videos from Yosemite [shows space available with seats folded, connections, & storage]

    Funny you should mention it! Currently writing about my delivery experience and fit and finish woes I’ve experienced. I’m very happy with the car, but it certainly isn’t perfect.
  2. R1S first look videos from Yosemite [shows space available with seats folded, connections, & storage]

    I’d suggest it isn’t a “review,” rather a “first-look” (that’s literally what she called it). I drove an R1T all-day for three days back at the Breckinridge press event and wouldn’t even dare to call the video I posted a review. I’ve now owned an R1T for two weeks and it’s going to be many-many...
  3. R1S first look videos from Yosemite [shows space available with seats folded, connections, & storage]

    And it’s totally fine if this isn’t content you see value in (I’m well known for being hypercritical and seldom get invites from brands pre-release); however, to not recognize that this isn’t any different from Rivian sending MotorTrend an R1S for a week is lost on me. If you’re waiting for...
  4. R1S first look videos from Yosemite [shows space available with seats folded, connections, & storage]

    Just hoping to correct a little bit. No money exchanged hands here. I’m also a YouTuber (though a smaller one than Justine) and not only are we held to extremely strict standards by the platform itself, but also federal law (16 CFR 255). The FTC requires disclosure of any transference of funds...
  5. Regretting not ordering the Rivian Wall Charger

    Strong endorsement for the OpenEVSE. You can build/repair it yourself, the parts are EXTREMELY high quality (way better than my Tesla Wall Connector), the unit itself is TINY compared to other EVSEs and the screen is very nice—not to mention IP rating is very high. Super happy with it. Here's...
  6. April - May 2022 Delivery Club/Hype Thread

    Thanks! Yeah, this is the early pre-order. This livestream was pretty off the cuff but I'm working on an "initial impressions" video covering things I love and don't like the first couple weeks into ownership. Hoping to be *different* from the many videos on YouTube that are much the same.
  7. April - May 2022 Delivery Club/Hype Thread

    I've got two preorders. One from 11/2018 and another from 9/2021. The latter is going to be an R1S, hopefully!
  8. Steering wheel feedback over bumpy roads?

    I love it. I haven’t driven a car with this much wheel feedback in years. If you leave the steering wheel straight up with your hands off, you can actually see it respond to the road conditions. Most cars are just dead, dead, dead (especially at 0 deg) nowadays. Reminds me of performance cars...
  9. Progress pics of R1T paint correction, full front PPF, ceramic coat (exterior & interior), tint

    $5K?! Man, I need to rent an Airbnb for a week in Long Beach. Just a full PPF in Salt Lake and you’re looking at $9-10K.
  10. R1S Owners Guide Manual Available! ? (August 22, 2022)

    My dad's Kia has a HUD—and one that can even be used with polarized glasses, no less!
  11. Rivian Patents Front Bumper with a Winch (Fairlead)

    Here's hoping for (a) a retrofit, and (b) one that doesn't cost $7K.
  12. April - May 2022 Delivery Club/Hype Thread

    8 steps received this morning, I completed them according to my guide by "having the record for fastest completed purchase process of any of my customers Quinn! Holy cow!" Then he asked me if I was okay with a delivery tomorrow. I was SHOCKED! Then he followed up saying "It looks like it is...
  13. Shipping By Train

    Can corroborate. In scheduling delivery today, my guide said: "Just sent a message to my delivery team to see what the earliest real time-slot we can expect delivery to happen would be. I'll let you know once I hear back. I'm crossing my fingers that there is a train heading to SLC tonight with...
  14. Delivery set for this Friday 5/6

    Congrats! My car is still in Normal, but they're expecting a delivery date for next week. Finished 8 steps this afternoon.
  15. Rivian announces: "A milestone in our progress in Georgia" and releases plant site plans / map

    Rivian just notified the press that their Economic Development Agreement proposal has been approved and signed by all party members of the Joint Development Authority for the new Georgia factory. Included is a site plan and some numbers. Site plan of Rivian's future Georgia manufacturing...
  16. Internet browser???

    It's a seemingly silly feature, but one I have come to love. Being able to watch shows while eating food or while stuck charging on road trips is quite a nice luxury.
  17. Any "March-April" delivery people contacted?

    I was lucky enough to find one listed on Facebook Marketplace in Colorado about 6 months ago. Robert and I are in talks about a collab because while his Codas look nice, they’ve been awfully unreliable. I have a few thousand miles on mine since purchase and even though it looks horrid (was...
  18. Any "March-April" delivery people contacted?

    LE Rivian Blue, BM, 20” AT, also missed March-April window. In SLC, UT. Signed PBA few weeks back, sold my Tesla last week (driving a $3,500 2012 Coda EV in the meantime). Last week my guide told me: “Keep your eyes on your email. Hopefully we have a delivery date for you in the next 2 to 3...
