I'm just curious if anyone's gone through this yet, since it seems like there are many non-serviceable areas across the US (and 90%+ of Canada). How would service issues be handled? I guess for smaller issues, like QC failures, it's on the customer to bring in the vehicle to a service center and...

I'm seeing lots of Launch Edition R1Ts in the Western Canada shop, and am curious if anyone knows where they're coming from since it was a limited availability configuration. Are these just super old stock that got lost and then found? Returns?

I haven't seen complaints about this recently, so hoping that Rivian has made an improvements since launch, and not just cost cutting.

Not quite as catchy as Tank Turn, but I bet it will actually be delivered: Finally a true EV off-road competitor to the Rivian, aside from the massive Hummer.

This was a worry of mine, so I'm excited to see the crossbars are locking! I wonder what sort of key this is. With the Yakima partnership, it would be really cool if it's using their Same Key System (SKS): https://yakima.com/products/sks-lock-cores. From this one picture, it does look like it's...

If you reserve a R1T or R1S today and live in Canada, the website lists CAD pricing and you pay your deposit also in CAD. I ordered early 2019, and paid the USD deposit. I've heard that some accounts were converted over to CAD at a later date, but mine was not. Did I just get missed? I'm...

Incentives: None that I know of. Far too expensive of a vehicle to qualify for any federal or provincial programs that I've found. I'm SUPER jealous of that $7500 USD American federal tax credit! Pricing: I preordered early and was charged $1000 USD, so the configurator shows me all USD...

Bloomberg Live tweeted a few clips of an interview with RJ today: I'm not sure if the whole interview is available somewhere, but there's a few interesting Rivian related bits in those short clips. Full interview available here...

Some of my takeaways: - Like Rivian, Rimac also found that axial cooling is superior to radial - The different variables in evaluating battery tech, such as: gravimetric/volumetric energy density, power density, charge time, cycle life, calendar life, cost, safety - Battery energy density hasn't...

Based on what we've seen so far from the show room cars, the South America prototype vehicles, and the paint color swatches revealed in the recent Rivian video, here is the R1T in the various colors: Original: Silver (the original R1T color, I didn't get terribly close here, plenty of photos...

Screengrabs from the recent Rivian video, right after RJ dance-I mean the 1:55 mark ;) Not an official announcement, but those few full-screen color frames seem preeetty intentionally added. Did you miss them the first time? I did. I won't tell you how many times I watched it before noticing.

Bored on a Saturday morning I re-watched the "Building a Test Vehicle" video slowed down and noticed these things that I found interesting. Not all of them are new news, and of course this isn't production spec. Just observations from an impatient pre-order holder.

Got this email just now: ...sorry, couldn't help myself :p. But ACTUALLY, for real though, the homepage does have two new pictures: https://rivian.com/static/5241973544c0e786dcb9c857eaa2556e/039e3/R1TBlue_BC_PSStatic_FogWoods_058A4261_1215x1650.jpg...
