nor should you. For someone who has recently made a reservation and wants an R2 this calendar year, the odds are they can get one if they're open to the limitations of a LE
Thanks for all the input..and yes this is probably most important, the number of stock options. Driving through Wyoming and getting a flat could be a real pain with trying to find the 21' tires let alone the cost of them
Question, since there some pretty knowledgeable people out there. With the 20" setup being only $1000 more, doesn't it make sense to go with that size even if one prefers all season tires? It just seems that there will be a significant cost savings replacing tires over many years with the 20"...
I had a few phantom braking events on a recent trip 0f 1400 miles and two of them had no apparent reason whatsoever for it. These events are potentially dangerous in certain traffic situations.. Has anyone had improvement after a camera recalibration?
Is there any clarity as to whether traffic light and stop sign recognition will ever be possible with Autonomy + on a Gen 2? For me that's the capability that makes the purchase definitely worthwhile
Been driving R1S for 3 years and will not wait for LIDAR. My practical question that can't be answered yet, " How much will a replacement windshield cost on the R2 with LIDAR? "

Thanks for the input. Planned obsolescence embraced by tech companies is a pain and despite their posturing, it is not an environmentally responsible business practice.
I guess I'll have to upgrade
When there's a discrepancy between this map and the Rivian website map which map should we refer to as accurate? For example the Tesla Supercharger north of Des Moines Iowa is listed as open to NACS partners on this map and the Tesla map but Rivian doesn't have it as compatible on the website...
I had Meridian in the Gen 1 and noticed immediately how poor the Gen 2 sound was when I traded up for it. That said, tweaking the the EQ/Bal did help for me. I've also driven in a few different cars over the last month, Hyundai, Ford and Porsche and realized how much better the Rivian Audio is...
I also have an S10e with Android 12 and while the app works fine with it, I can't get it to work as a phone key for the Gen 2 R1S. There never was a problem with the phone and the Gen 1 R1S but it's been a pain not having that functionality. Once I get a Key Fob it won't be much of an issue, but...
