No Amazon Music, no bueno!

Is there a source link for this?

Rivian Assistant worked great for us. Obviously nowhere close to perfect but it's miles ahead of Alexa in terms of conversational intelligence. However, having to lose Amazon Music is an absolute deal breaker. We'll have to grudgingly switch back to Alexa until Rivian gets its act together and...

Is there anything it can do without Connect+? The story says the below, so I wonder if there's some capability coming for us non-Connect+ folks at some point?: Connected experiences that require the cloud, including the full capabilities of Rivian Assistant, are in English only and available...

Dang, almost missed that fine print! 😂

Who said some of us aren't looking for trouble? :p

What's potus doing on your toast? :p

Agree with most commenters. Shit happens and that's what insurance is for. OP needs to made whole for whatever their vehicle was worth at the time of the accident (i.e how much ever a 2023 R1T with 30k miles is worth on the market). Rivian should make additional amends, within reason, to...

Headscratcher why they went back to a conventional AC for the R2 launch vehicles when they had a couple of years from Gen 2 R1 to learn lessons and refine their heat pump design.

It's what you need to wear when consuming food or drink of any kind when doing a launch in a Rivian, so as to protect one's shirting. Sometimes I can't believe the kind of questions that get asked on a so-called Rivian forum. How can anyone not know that? /s

iX3 looks awesomenand great tech, but I'm not sure I see it yet as a direct competitor to R2. iX3 pricing begins where R2 ends. Sure, there will be some overlapping cross-shoppers, but I feel it will be a small fraction of buyers.

V Can you please also clarify in your post that the Standard R2 is RWD and the Premium/Performance are AWD? Similarly the Model Y Performance is AWD? Makes it easier for folks who are looking for direct comparisons.

Seems like a missed opportunity!

Agreed they're very different vehicles, as I've already stated. However, my worry is that there would be a lot of folks who're going to be assuming what I'm assuming and will cross-shop the R2 vs the MY. Whether the R2 can command a 5k price premium will remain to be seen. I was really hoping...

I really hope this isn't the final pricing. Other than the R2 Performance/LE, which compares favorably versus the Model Y Performance, aren't the Premium and the Single Motor RWD prices significantly higher than the Model Y Premium AWD (-$5k at $48,990) and Model Y Premium RWD (-$3.5k, at...

"Well inflation is when uh when the the price of things uhm is, is over is is, is too expensive because of of the uh federal government. Uh really squandering the tax dollars. So you have the green new scam, uh hundreds of billions of dollars spent there". - Lauren Boebert

The following is to be read in David Attenborough's voice: Homosapiens in the profession of selling things have deployed this strategy to great effect since man evolved from ape eons ago. The reason they keep doing it is because it works. Apparently that part of the human brain hasn't yet...

RJ, is that you?

I think the "600 feet of torque" just isn't gonna cut it 😄
