    Thread for the grizzled. Who had NOT changed their configuration yet?

    All I did was update my build to align with what I originally specc'd out (added the tonneau back on). I decided to not cancel as I wanted to wait until after the quarterly call... I figured the trend I was seeing here was just a small sample of the real trend and Rivian was going to have to do...

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

    Just got my updated cost... two words cross my mind: "Holy" and "$hit" Crossed $110k... not sure about the truck at this point. ?

    Hypothetical Breakdown

    It's not botched... it's unintentionally feature rich.

    who cares about privacy?

    I do wonder how any PII (Personal Identification Information) will be handled in general, but especially in the EU where GDPR and the like rule the land.

    who cares about privacy?

    Have a cell phone, credit card, and the internet? If so we already know everything about you... and you aren't that interesting as an individual.

    Rivian R1T MAX PACK delivery update from customer service -- Q1 2023 Possible

    Sorry, did you just compare a startup that struggled to push out 1K vehicles out the door, in the middle of a supply shortage, in the midst of a pandemic... to Boeing and Airbus?

    Rivian R1T MAX PACK delivery update from customer service -- Q1 2023 Possible

    How? If 99% of Max pack orders move to Large, they would have to figure out where you are dropped into on the build schedule. I'd expect them to get more precise once they have all the data... People have until Jan 31... that's 20 more days for folks to make changes. Setting expectations with...

    Rivian’s Stock Slide Deepens as Operating Chief Steps Down

    My CVP retired back in 2012, then came back to fix a complete shit show in 2017, then retired again in 2021. Leadership often "unretires" and "retires", and can often be used as a shock force to fix broken stuff or to handle a specific phase of a project (at which they accel at). Yeah, the...

    Rivian produced 1,015 vehicles total in 2021!

    100% this. For me, it doesn't matter what I pull the trigger on, pretty sure either way, I'm looking at 2023 to take delivery. I have little faith that I'd get my F150 Lightening in 2022 (given their limited production capacity/dealer allocation combined with dealer shenanigans or otherwise...

    Rants and Raves after 2 months of Rivian R1T ownership [DISCLAIMER: Unauthorized feedback from non-owner]

    Well, one thing this thread has made clear to me, those that work in a company that builds and releases hardware and software, and those that don't... As someone who does, I can tell you, there are a litany of reasons to have "non-consumer" builds of software (and even hardware), even on...

    $80 to Fast Charge Your Rivian!

    "Fueling" your EV will generally vary cost wise on where you do it. Some are based on time at the charger, others on a per/kw rate. I've owned an EV for a while and can count on 1 hand the number of times I fast charged. Most of my charging is done at home. Some is supplemented on road trips...

    Houston, we have a problem.

    It's called "Force Majeure" You can demand all you want, you can enforce as much as you want... you can't get blood from a stone.

    Rivian R1T Gets Ceramic Coating, Window Tint, And PPF

    I'll be having it done to mine. I would not really advise doing it on your own (especially if you are doing the full rig). Doing the tucking and such can be tricky to say the least.

    Rants and Raves after 2 months of Rivian R1T ownership [DISCLAIMER: Unauthorized feedback from non-owner]

    Most of this... actually does not worry me that much. Most of it seems software oriented, which improved over time (and generally is a great deal easier and cheaper to fix versus a hardware issue). Really, the only thing that caught my eye was "Trim peeling". Panel gaps and alignment actually...

    Meet the new SilvErado!

    Weekend warrior truck if I ever saw one. That wing thing (like the Avalanche) will make mounting toolboxes and racks a nightmare, so it's not a "working truck" in the sense that the F150 Lightening is. It looks a bit like they took the Hummer and made it "less of a flying brick" and actually...

    Ford F150 Lightning playbook - Retail orders start 1/6/2022

    Platinum and Lariat will be delivered first. Pro and XLT are 2023 delivery window.

    Other EVs in 2023

    Well, for those hoping for the F150 Lightning... unless you are going for a Platinum or Lariat... you won't be getting it until 2023 according to a just leaked dealer doc. XLT and Pro are 2023, fleet orders are in a separate queue it sounds like.

    Other EVs in 2023

    Yeah, the CyberTruck isn't in the running for me at all. It's too big, it's too spartan on the interior for my tastes (same reason the Model 3 and Model Y are not in the running for us as a second car). Not to mention the exterior design... very much not my taste. Porsche I've never really...
