  1. MKBHD Interview: Rivian CEO Scaringe Talks R1S and Future of Rivian (R2, Wireless Charging Pad, Camp Kitchen Update, Etc.)

    Anyone have more details on rough timeframe for this charging pad revision?
  2. R1S LA Silver new delivery estimates

    Not planning to. It’s been almost 5 years at this point since preorder, close to 3 years late because of changing circumstances, so I imagine they can and should keep track of my preorder for a few more if my circumstances have changed a bit since then as well. Not intending to flip as some have...
  3. R1S LA Silver new delivery estimates

    11/2018 preorder holder for LAS/OC here, got email asking to confirm for Jul-Aug 2023 delivery, but just decided to put on hold so hopefully goes to one of you. Decided to just hang onto 2018 model 3 for a bit longer as rivian irons out kinks in the 4-5 digit vins. I’ll likely look again once we...
  4. Emblem Blackout

    Anyone try plastidipping emblems with or without glossifier? Seems stickers fall off and replacement emblem dimensions/thickness have a tendency to look slightly “off” like counterfeit luxury brand logos 😬
  5. Recent Delivery: R1S Adventure Package, Forest Green/Ocean Coast/Ash Interior

    Why not do the factory option? Seems like less hassle dealing w a third party, maybe I’m missing something?
  6. Poor Quality Stealth Satin PPF Clear Bra on Rivian R1T - Be Careful When Price Shopping

    Rivian offers front PPF from the factory for $1500 that can be added to a preorder. Seems to be substantially more competitive than many aftermarket options especially in SoCal. What are the downsides to this? Am I missing something here?
  7. Nervous about Rivian purchase as date draws nearer

    Calm down twice was for the multiple rhetorical questions using ?? twice, seemed you got worked up. Sorry that offended you. No argument, just replying. Thanks for the diagnosis and prescription doc.
  8. Nervous about Rivian purchase as date draws nearer

    Guys calm down. Was replying to @GMoneyR1T who was getting panties in a twist about the “$100 interest free loan” to Tesla. Agreed, it is an absurd way to think about preorder deposits. But many including myself also not interested in flipping cars off preorders. It seems that everything needs...
  9. 2018 Orders Still Pending

    Maybe the Costa Mesa service center at 7.9 miles away is too far. Seems to be the BS reply a few others even closer to some service centers are getting. Good thing not in a hurry, just waiting for early adopters to work out all the bugs. Maybe by then Rivian will have declared itself as a...
  10. Nervous about Rivian purchase as date draws nearer

    Everyone makes failed promises, like tank turns and camp kitchens and $70,000 starting prices. 🧐😉 Your clear hatred/disdain/strange jealousy of a singular individual aside, I have an R1S preorder from 11/26/2018 with a 4.5-year-and-counting interest-free loan to rivian! Thanks for the warm...
  11. Rivian confirms no Meridian Sound System in my R1S. It has in-house audio system

    If it sounds too good to be true, probably is. I feel ashamed for telling everyone how great this company was going to be. They’ve let a lot of people down. Expect a buyout or bankruptcy within 6-8 quarters best guess
  12. Nervous about Rivian purchase as date draws nearer

    Here’s the fallacy, thinking all EV startups can just follow in Tesla’s footsteps and do great. Check out Lucid, they are the canary in the coal mine here. Most startups will fail (Saturn, DMC, and many prior to that) and all US automakers except Ford and Tesla have gone bankrupt.
  13. Nervous about Rivian purchase as date draws nearer

    Kind of like how HP bought Palm (remember PDAs and Palm phones?) and promptly proceeded to drive it into the ground? webOS which was ahead of its time in many ways was then spun off to LG and now it is some crap clunky tv software. Moral of story: getting bought by someone bigger does not...
  14. Nervous about Rivian purchase as date draws nearer

    Remember the Amazon phone that was supposedly the iPhone killer? Exactly…
  15. Nervous about Rivian purchase as date draws nearer

    He did this exact thing in 2016, stole ten times as much cash from me as an interest-free loan, and had the gall to deliver my model 3 that I have been driving for over five years problem-free. What a scam artist!! /s
  16. 2018 Orders Still Pending

    11/26/2018 reservation holder here. I live 4 miles from their corporate headquarters in Irvine and even closer to RJ’s residence. No communication and order estimate stuck on “processing” for years.
  17. Mini-review at 1500 miles (R1S)

    How is resale value of a flipped r1s these days? In Orange County CA
  18. Mini-review at 1500 miles (R1S)

    Man these pics are further convincing me to wait till the dust settles some and just hang on to my 5 year old model 3 which is also an early VIN and runs solid (and less crooked)
  19. To New Owners - Don't be scared. Problems are not Rivian, they happen to all manufacturers.....
