I'm 5'11" and I tried laying down in the back of the showroom unit today. I put my heals at the edge of the carpet and plastic threshold (not sure if the door would protrude further) and my shoulders came about to the back of the driver seat (which was forward just enough for the back seats to...

No, that's not right. There are two "Wall Connectors" and a "Mobile Connector". The Mobile one is the one you can through in the trunk and take with you to charge at a friends house or wherever you may find yourself. The Wall Connectors are the permanently installed ones you'd put in your...

This is where we disagree. Yes, they've clearly stated that they don't plan to support CP/AA, but that doesn't mean customers (and potential customers) should not make it known that it would be a nice feature. The R1 didn't have a glove box and people complained, now R2 has two! To say people...

Whoa, someone woke up on the wrong side of the bed. I never said it was a deal breaker. I am an enthusiastic R2 reservation holder and am ready to give Rivian money the minute my reservation gets called. Am I disappointed in the fact I'll have to work around the lack of CarPlay? Absolutely...

The clock and weather are both shown on the top left of the main screen, just below the profile circle. I only spent a few minutes playing with the seat and steering wheel, so might not have gotten it dialed in perfectly, but I'm 5'11" and the steering wheel still clipped the top corners of the...

The problem with that response is that we can't expect the whole Android/iOS app ecosystem to be ported to Rivian OS. The indie developers who make niche apps on the phone are not ever going to have native car apps. So yeah, we can carve away bits of the population by adding the heavy hitters...

I find the animosity to phone projection baffling. The only argument I'm willing to accept, and just barely, is that their engineering team is pedal to the floor on 1st party experiences and they don't have time to integrate, validate, and maintain a 3rd party system. Fair enough. But as...

I actually expected the opposite. If it's a Rivian lease they have the power to extend it to help line up with delivery windows (and I saw one person comment that happened to them). Non-Rivian leases have a firm end date so Rivian would have to slot those people in with priority so they don't go...

I would expect PDT. I am in Texas and have been refreshing every half hour or so until noon, just to be safe.

As discussed elsewhere, the FM audio is not coming from an FM tuner receiving radio signals from a broadcast tower. It is streaming from iHeartRadio or TuneIn over the cellular connection.

Yep, the reps I've talked to have echoed the sentiment in these threads that the current Gen 2.5 platform (R2 actually has slightly better compute than Gen 2 R1) has plenty of headroom and RAP1+LIDAR won't actually create any segmentation for several years. And in the meantime, the LIDAR data...

I haven't gotten the official invite yet, but the configuration now lets you select the Borealis and Forest Green rather than having them greyed out. So I'm guessing as long as you place your order when your time comes and just select the delayed options, they'll consider it an LE with a longer...

I haven't driven one yet, but I stopped by my local Space to get some hands on time in the showroom. I actually had to do a reset (push both wheels outwards for 10+ seconds) because the software had crashed 😬, but they did provide some haptics even in that state. The wheels worked great for...

It also allows them to provide more accurate delivery estimates for the orders that are placed. If they opened the flood gates, they would have to make some initial guess based on very little data, and hope that they don't have to slip those estimates as more orders come in. If they didn't have...

This is correct. Leasing with the intent to buy out is tough in Texas because of this tax situation. You'd need a good incentive that covers the double taxed portion and then some for it to be better than financing.

Did you get any sense of how quickly subsequent waves would roll out? My deposit confirmation was at 12:02pm CST on 3/7/24 so I should be right near the top, but I didn't get an invite today. Being in Austin and not a current R1 owner, maybe there are just too many people in the area that got...

Just added my reservation
