I was invited to the Rivian shop , changed my config and immediately started the 8 step process. It stopped me at step 2. I got an error message that they were unable to load taxes and fees. Contact your guide. Frustrating. I have a NY driver lic but want to register in Florida. Could that be the issue?

Trying to register your vehicle in another state not shown as you home address on your license.

I know why you want to try that (who wouldn't!) But Rivan would be breaking NY/City state tax laws. How much tax would be saving if your DL was registered in FL vs NY?

FL tax is 6.5 or 7%, but our insurance is inflated because of the 25% un-insured/underinsured drivers on the roads here.

FWIW, it shouldn’t hold up the buying process. For example, other steps like insurance and payment don’t get finalized until like 1-2 days before your scheduled delivery, which will be at least a couple weeks from now. Congrats on getting one!

I would certainly play it cool when you talk to your guide. Just ask them to tell you what the issue is - not assume it’s the address thing, even if that ends up being it.
