Our revised estimated delivery dates will tell the story. What is your preorder date?
Only last month unfortunately, I'll be waiting a while

You can lock your config - but doesn’t mean a damned thing if they don’t happen to feel like building it:

My initial reaction is that we would have heard in this forum that a non-LE R1S is about to get delivered...then again maybe it's only a matter of time.
I would say there’s a much higher chance for anything to be confirmed on Facebook rather than this or another forum. Forums are pretty antiquated in the eyes of most people.

The fact that they’re building LE and Adv side by side is exactly what I was expecting despite what some were saying. Makes much more sense (since it’s the same thing besides one color option and the wheel upgrade).

Our deliveries probably wont be that far apart.
Just noticed you're in Oakville, I am too! A part of me is hoping that we'll get an SC here since there's a Tesla location nearby lol

My Guide stopped responding to me when I asked if she had any info on when R1Ss with OC would start shipping. It has been 10 days and she hasn’t responded to me, although she was responsive before that.

Like you, I’ve also given her options, including GW/FE…just no BM.

Tesla's Vaughan service center is much busier and is a more central and accessible location if they want to serve the entire GTA. But Rivian could do really well in Oakville if they can convince some of the soccer moms to trade in their X7, GLS, or Q7.

There's just SO MUCH opportunity in the GTA. Something like what 1/5 or 1/6 of Canada's population lives in the GTA? Not opening one in the GTA right off the bat would be a mistake imo. With all the other manufacturers around the corner launching competitors to the R1T/S it might be lots of lost opportunity. I've always said, after BC, I see them going with GTA, Alberta and Montreal - we may see a pause after that for a bit.
Sure the GTA is a large chunk of population... But Quebec has the largest share of BEV sales... https://electricautonomy.ca/2022/05/27/q1-2022-ihs-how-many-zev-registrations-canada/

that is interesting. I am taking delivery today 9/16 and I am vin 569… I guess they are not sequential.
Mine took a LONG time to ship from Normal from what I gather.

I saw a Rivian CSR response posted here about building LE and Adv side by side. Did we hear Adv build confirmation from buyers yet?

I've asked on Reddit and here - nothing confirmed yet, but like @AxelR mentioned above ... It's anyone's guess if we are getting a good sample size from social media.

Someone picked up their vehicle y'day at the Brooklyn SC and they counted roughly 10 R1Ss awaiting delivery...that's factual data that tells me that I'm getting closer...
