Hi all, I'm one of the mods on r/Rivian.
We did hold a poll to see if people wanted to participate in the blackout and most people said yes. We're only doing the 48hr blackout rather than indefinitely, so it'll be open again tomorrow.
I was just talking about this in the Discord. I've been a software designer for 12+ years and you can tell the mobile app was designed with very few features in mind (either they weren't on the roadmap at the time, or it wasn't conveyed to design).
A good example of this has been how they...
So my truck just arrived at the SF service center yesterday (shipped on the train about 3 weeks ago)! Guide originally gave a conservative estimate of 6-8 weeks, so this is wayyy earlier.
Should be getting it this weekend or early next week!
Nice! I've already chatted with my Guide, signed PBA, and my config is soft-locked. Just waiting for the truck to be in inspections and then I'll get the 8 steps and my Guide will update me.
Huh, so you have 20" ATs too. I have same window with same wheels. I have a Guide and Shop access, config is soft-locked but that's it so far for the last few weeks. I'm hoping in the next 1-3 weeks I heard something.
EDIT - Funny enough, my 8 steps just opened and got a VIN. Guide is...
I still have access too... had it for almost 2 weeks now.
I have the banner link in my account and it still works through the original email. No issues loading it at all.
Howdy. I got narrowed from July-Sept to Aug-Sept. Noticed a lot of people who also previously had July-Sept got bumped to Oct-Dec, yikes.
UPDATE
Posted here on Wednesday and got invited to the R1 Shop + Guide assigned + "A Seamless Process" email all on Friday. Got access to the shop Saturday...
Just FYI, some people have gotten the email but are already in purchasing process. I know of one even with an assigned VIN and knows the truck's SC location (it's being moved from one to another). Probably just an error.
Yeah that thought crossed my mind as well. I’ve stopped by every few weeks and haven’t seen many El Caps there. But the people working there said they see them all the time, so who knows.
Ordered Oct 2020
R1T Adventure
El Cap + Forest Edge
20" ATs
Quad motor
Large pack
Powered tonneau (added back day of)
Tow hooks
I have not touched my config since I set it and added back the tonneau. Someone in Portland with the exact same config as me, yet ordered 9mo later, also got a guide...
Sigh, I really don't understand this. I ordered a full year before you, with Adv+FE in SF (I live 15min from that center). I also have an earlier delivery window than you. And still no guide.
Either way, congrats, but this is frustrating to watch (as it is for a lot of other people too).
I have the same exact config as you, ordered 9mo before you, and live on the west coast as well (I'm 15min from the SF service center)... still no contact. I also have the same July-Sept delivery window as you.
I can confirm that's just a regular Ford van. I drive by there weekly (I drop my dog off at daycare down the street) and I've seen it each time. I was the one who shared more pics of this place about a month or two ago that circled around on here.
Someone mentioned multiple flatbeds, which is...
