I'm wondering how much of an impact the Amazon Van production is having on when we'll get our R1T or R1S. Considering the current battery and chip supply shortages, it has to be slowing production down for our vehicles, if Rivian is building the vans now...right? It was the first concern I had when I heard of Amazon's big 100K van order and investment in Rivian. At the same time, that order was a great boost for Rivian and strengthened the viability of the company, so it's a double-edged sword.
Also, IMO my personal need for the R1T is not as important to the planet, or all of us, as getting the ICE vans off the roads and replaced with electrics. So, I shouldn't be selfish about it.
Anyone heard/seen Amazon vans running around much out there? Or, know if they are being steadily produced at this time? FYI Found this recent video of a van in Seattle.
