I'm holding out for a 3-row R3. Might as well have all three rows be super-cramped.

The email says R2 Performance with Launch Package will remain available for you until it's your time to order. Since I won't be ordering until about a year after it's my time to order (when my current lease is up) I wonder how long they'll hold that Launch Package, and whether it will include...

I got Sept-Nov 26. Reserved March 2026, not a Rivian owner. I said I was interested in the launch edition and gave them details on my lease ending early 2028(!) So I won't be ordering anything until late 2027. I was actually expecting an order window of mid 2027 because of my end of lease date.

The programmer who was supposed to write the code to send out all the emails today got redirected to work on Pet Mode instead. Priorities! 😝

I had a beige car in 1980. Beige isn't brown, is it? :D My parents' cars in the 60's thru 80's were light green, red, yellow, dark green, brown, and another brown. I think they went with all white cars after that. In those days I think black was only allowed for police cars and hearses. One...

In some of those pictures HMG seems to get a greenish tint from the surrounding trees.

Retired software dude here. Writing a little code to do something simple in isolation is fairly easy. Making it work in a larger ecosystem is surprisingly difficult. Moving existing working code to a new platform can also be surprisingly difficult. My guess with R2 is that the missing features...

My first experience with one-pedal was test driving an Ariya. It was not a very strong effect, and I had to use the brake to completely stop. Didn't make sense to me. I could tell it would be a useful feature if it would actually stop the car. Ended up buying an Optiq, which has excellent...

My favorite feature will be the unique boxy shape and decent ground clearance compared to similarly priced and sized EVs. I don't go off-roading, but I do like to drive rough unpaved roads to get to hiking trails or remote scenic vistas. My current EV is aerodynamically shaped and relatively low...

Make sure you check before closing the garage door though!

Again, they edited the headline an hour or two after posting to correct it. The original headline was Drove 2,250 miles, 17 hours straight which I thought was quite funny.

They edited that headline since it was first posted. Originally it said Drove 2,250 miles, 17 hours straight

I'm impressed by the headline that says he drove 2,250 miles, 17 hours straight. That's over 132 MPH!

I answered Definitely to that question, even though I made my reservation in March 2026 and my current lease isn't up until the start of 2028. If the launch edition is still available then, I'll go for it!

Reservation added! (reserved a couple of months ago)
