Apparently if you have more than one R2 reservation made at the exact same time (minute zero, day one). The second reservation gets booted to the back of the line. Got the order in for the first. The second reservation is now showing DEC-FEB. They must be trying to prevent flips or something. In...
Just got assigned 7/31 delivery. Of course a day that we aren't able to make the trek to the service center. Interesting that they did not provide any options, just an arbitrary assignment of date and time. Email into them to reschedule.
Looks like they're surging delivery's to areas closest to the factory before end of quarter to boost the delivery numbers. My guess is the rest of us will see VIN's assigned July 1.
Just order. Given the huge window on delivery timelines (4-8 weeks in our case), there’s really no way to plan on when you will be taking delivery. Rivian knows this and will offer flexibility on scheduling delivery when the timeline narrows.
