I actually appreciate the rant, as it contributes to the wide range of opinions and views on this forum. Not all are Rivian fanboys and stockholders. It is informative and at the very least, lowers expectations for those who take on some risk of being beta users of products of this new company.

Anyone here have a personal connection with RJ? If so, can you please tell him to adequately staff and build more service centers? Rivian from time to time produces absolute trash and those vehicles end up in purgatory. Lack of quality service centers scare away potential new buyers and...

Sorry to hear, 1) Lemon law it 2) sell it 3) gamble and take it to another SC As an aside, you are clearly invested and biased, saying that this vehicle is the perfect vehicle for you. Wake up, it’s far from a perfect vehicle. It’s a vehicle from hell. Rivian’s service and from time to time...

when did you take delivery of yours? I'd be disappointed if mine does not have old style armrests...that would be really strange of any car manufacturer to make that change unannounced. it's a nice feature

Sort of. No, but if it's an existing order from the shop, you can order a separate vehicle from the shop, enter the referral code and swap vins. Speak to sales and they should be able to help (not your guide)

I think you need to order from the shop. I scrapped my custom order for other reasons, ordered from the shop and participated in the referral code program.

Who introduced and ultimately signed off on that loophole?

To make matters more complicated, NJ is ending their exempt sales tax incentive on EVs starting October 1, 2024. It's ridiculous since they haven't met their initial targets of 300K+ registered EVs in NJ. From October 1, 2024 to July x, 2025, EVs will be subject to 3.3x% or half of the...

Hi Joshua, I just ordered from the shop (my custom build was taking too long). I have a few questions about the $7,500 lease credit at Rivian. Does that lower the sticker price or is that applied elsewhere? For example, if my R1S is priced at 90,000, the $7,500 lease credit will be applied...

Expected rate cuts are already priced in. What you see now is what you will get throughout the rest of 2024.

Hi Chad, Do you know which configs are available at Mahwah, NJ right now? Appreciate your help and will you use your referral code. Please feel free to DM me.

Maybe they take several road trips and have range anxiety. does this family have a house and a garage to install an L2 charger?

Most EVs are a status symbol. They are expensive and represent that you own a house with a garage. Unless gas prices sky rocket, EVs will remain a niche.

So the standard is awful? I am considering cancelling my order and buying from the shop but they all seem to have the standard

The 22 inch Range Wheels, fully covered, look really good to me.

I'm in total agreement, but ultimately could not pull the trigger. End of summer incentives are now gone and the price difference isn't as stark. Even with those incentives, I think I'd regret spending 60-65K on a KIA, and I can't live with the design elements of the EV9. The Rivian is so...

If I cancel my order and use the deposit for something in the shop, can I participate in this referral program?

I am leasing so I don’t worry on out-dated software, plus the Kia has Apple CarPlay which is huge for me. The frunk on the EV9 is a joke but one that I can live with considering the substantially lower monthly payments. It is really is more targeted for families, almost mini-van like TBH. I’m...

I'm going to pull the trigger on the Kia EV9 as my secondary. Incentives and rates are too good to pass up on (13K off on incentives and 0% financing and low MF). GT-LINE, zero down, is 759 per month whereas a standard pack with 2k down (fees) is $993 for a 80,600 unit in the shop...

Is that a 6 month wait?
