  1. General thoughts on ICE depreciation?

    As a Tesla owner, a Hummer EV owner, a future Rivian owner and also a 37 Raptor owner. This is all too premature. A ban on gas vehicles is at a minimum 25 years away. It's so much more than infrastructure on my mind when I make that statement, because infrastructure is just one huge component...
  2. How to tell if you've been assigned a Guide before Rivian tells you...

    It's there, and I believe it to be a mistake. If it's not a mistake, I'm p sure there will be some angry people here. Thus I do not believe this to be an accurate representation of facts.
  3. How to tell if you've been assigned a Guide before Rivian tells you...

    I don’t think this is accurate. This also shows for me and I'm a Sept. 2021 R1S preorder holder.
  4. ? New Rivian email: production sequence adjustments to maximize production output in spite of supply challenge

    I do not understand why you think this email suggests a delay for you what-so-ever. OC may be causing delays for Adventure preorder holders (like myself) and thus this is preemptive.
  5. ? New Rivian email: production sequence adjustments to maximize production output in spite of supply challenge

    No, you're not understanding my post. If they are batching by color and wheel options then obviously it makes sense to throw in Adventure packages with LE. If they are making Blue LEs and they have black mountain blue adventures.. line em up..
  6. ? New Rivian email: production sequence adjustments to maximize production output in spite of supply challenge

    It goes hand in hand with seeing Adventure packages being shipped concurrently. If they are batching orders by color and wheel combinations it makes sense to blast out some adventure packs while they can.
  7. cost of electric vs gas?

    My electric coop has a $20/per month subscription service. As long as I charge in the off peak times it's $20 per month unlimited charging from 9pm to 9am. Between those times it's .20 cents so a bit pricey but still far less expensive than my 2021 raptor 37pp with its 12mpg thirst of premium fuel.
  8. Keeping my Rivian outside?

    Mn legal tint is only 50%... but you'll never see that actually installed.
  9. Keeping my Rivian outside?

    Hmm.. I'd imagine then yes ppf + ceramic is a must + likely 20% tint all around such as in Texas. I have 30% all around where I'm at and 50% on my windshield purely to protect the interior from the sun.
  10. Keeping my Rivian outside?

    There is nothing outside of hail that would hurt or ruin your Rivian by keeping it outside. Unless your city dumps salt by the gallon on your driveway for some reason during the winter you can leave it out there without concern. Now that said, if you get a lot of rain followed by sunny skies...
  11. Rivian home wall electrical conector.

    It's a pretty big bummer that it only charges up to 20 miles per hour. It's nothing new, nothing I didn't know, but still a bummer.
  12. Effects of cold weather and wind on range - R1T owner's observation

    Can you manually precondition the battery at any time? This is important for winter range. My Tesla takes a huge hit in winter driving (I'm in Minnesota) and see weeks at a time at 0 or below sometimes a bit above. Here is the thing though with preconditioning and Tesla.. there are 2 types of...
  13. Rivian pricing has rolled back to "pre March 1" for previous order holders

    Wheels and tires are upgradable. Getting the offroad package isn't(wasn't), and the tow hooks are mandatory for any vehicle of this caliber. But separately from that, it's for looks. I have a 21 new gen3 raptor 37pp, a 21 ford bronco first edition, and a 23 hummer ev that will likely arrive...
  14. Rivian pricing has rolled back to "pre March 1" for previous order holders

    Here is a snapshot of my before price increase and after price reduction. I save $300 on the R1S.
  15. CFO Confirms 15K R1T / R1S to be Produced in 2022

    Supply and demand has nothing to do with someone 4 years ago placing a $1000 deposit and at this point finally needing to write a $80k check. Constraints on various parts, batteries et al again has nothing to do with competition in the market place, new products that have reached market, new...
  16. CFO Confirms 15K R1T / R1S to be Produced in 2022

    I don’t think it's fantasy for you. Rivian even at the prior price point was never going to convert 100% of preorders to deliveries. A very conservative estimate which may be generous is 30% cancel. With the badwill with price increase + the Lightning/Hummer/Silverado/Ram EVs on the true horizon...
  17. Had call with Rivian Guide, delay on Ocean Coast interior

    I'd wait for the next 6 months for white interior to be honest. If you were that early of an order and have to switch to black, that makes me think virtually no one has ocean white. That's good news for me and separately if Rivian takes on the Tesla model of limited refreshes then the only thing...
