  1. R1T & R1S Updated Pricing, Configuration, Specs. Dual Motor Now Available

    cxld a few weeks ago luckily. Sorry to those that were still holding on and hoping Rivian would deliver something close to what was advertised. Bait and switch might be tough to prove with the fine print but RJ absolutely lost a lot of supporters this week. Tone deaf at best with their...

  2. Are Max packs delivering?

    yes. it said 2nd half of 2023. Keep in mind i never had (to my knowledge) a window on the max pack.

  3. Are Max packs delivering?

    iā€™ll have to go look exactly but it was within a few weeks of the order banks opening up. Iā€™m just going to move ahead with the lightning or another ICE f150. Have a day one lightning reservation but will say that their communication has been about as inconsistent and sporadic as Rivian. I...

  4. Are Max packs delivering?

    Well, I just bailed. Got an email after updating my config that itā€™s end of 2023. Feels like they kicked me to the back of the line with the updated configuration so proceed with caution before changing. Considering how long I had the max pack order in, that window isnā€™t going to cut it...

  5. Are Max packs delivering?

    i just updated the config on the website. haven't gotten anything other than a notice that it's updated. no date or specifics.

  6. Are Max packs delivering?

    I just updated my order from max to large.... sweaty palms and anxiety is real

  7. Toyota may be producing its own EV truck to rival Rivian.

    all we can do is wait for details to emerge. If it's in normal Toyota fashion, it'll take a while. Sort of how they did with the last Tundra release. Details were scant and then bam you could order one and already have it on the way. They will measure the big 3 and go from there.

  8. Toyota may be producing its own EV truck to rival Rivian.

    The Japanese have always been that way. Doesn't mean they won't pivot quickly and they seem to be making those strides as we speak. As with any and all parts of EV transition, it requires change from consumers to suppliers. The world (and government) has spoken with the EV transition and I...

  9. Toyota may be producing its own EV truck to rival Rivian.

    I would submit that their competitive advantage isn't reliable engines/mechanics when it comes to the Rivian comparison. That is their advantage against GM/Ford/Stellantis/VW etc... Their advantage over Rivian still sits in the already scaled global manufacturing, supply chain and reputation...

  10. Toyota may be producing its own EV truck to rival Rivian.

    Definitely renders. As a long time toyota fan, I wouldn't be shocked if the next Tacoma looks very similar to what they showed yesterday. A decent blend of the new Tundra design and old Tacoma. If they undercut rivian by $30-40k, that would be tough to pass on.

  11. Removable Roof For Rivian R1t Coming Next Year!!!

    fair enough and makes sense. Iā€™m still not a fan of them though. Ive seen more than my fair share of cracked panels from skis and bikes (replaced one on my previous f150). If it was a city vehicle that wasnā€™t getting beat on, I wouldnā€™t mind but I plan to use this truck as intended ;) A metal...

  12. Removable Roof For Rivian R1t Coming Next Year!!!

    Another plus is that a solid steel, aluminum, carbon fiber, etcā€¦ roof is much lighter than a large glass panel. Range and climate control benefit and less to worry about. Also you donā€™t have to worry about cracking glass when using the rack bars for bikes, skis, gear, etcā€¦ donā€™t ask how I...

  13. OPINION: What to name Rivian Launch Mode?

    Ricky Bobby mode since everyone just wants to go fast...

  14. Official Cold Weather Driving Thread (Tips, Tricks, Tears)

    this is going to sound ridiculous but... once you put the nozzle into the fill opening... twist/flip the whole nozzle upside down and then pump. Should solve the vapor lock from tripping too early. I've got the same problem on my tundra. You can only imagine how long that takes to fill up...

  15. Age/Disposable Income Demographics

    When you get ready to offload the LC, shoot me a message. I'm always in the market.

  16. Rivian service centers at Amazon distribution centers?

    Warranty work not covered by independent mechanic though. I'm hopeful (and so far the initial impressions) is that rivian's build quality is much better. The headaches of early adoption.

  17. Rivian service centers at Amazon distribution centers?

    No doubt but in the meantime... people will still need service from time to time. Main reason why I dumped our model S is that I couldn't get any repair work done within a reasonable timeframe and it became too much of a headache. It's one thing to have premium service (Rivian will eventually...

  18. Rivian service centers at Amazon distribution centers?

    Agreed on the dealer buy in. I would think it's a no brainer. Especially tire replacements as this is going to chew through AT tires at F250 rates. Seems like a goldmine for Ford.

  19. Rivian service centers at Amazon distribution centers?

    That or... maybe more was hoped for with the Ford /Lincoln investment. It'd be in Ford's interest to extend that courtesy since they have the necessary lifts, tools, tech, etc... Being a low volume vehicle, seems it would make sense to me as it wouldn't have that much of an impact to their...
