Announcing our new "CLUBS" section where you can join or create a Rivian club or group! You can use this new feature to conveniently plan and discuss local events, gatherings or other club/group related topics.
So we encourage you to join (or start) special-interest and regional-based Rivian clubs at: https://www.rivianforums.com/forum/group-categories/clubs-groups.1/
I kinda figure service center locations more are implemented to service the Amazon EDV rollout than the retail R1 customers.Not a surprise. I don’t think it’s that goes is in trouble… but more that Amazon basically owns Rivian. There is some compelling evidence that all the delays rivian has had getting it’s personal vehicles out had nothing to do with the pandemic and the supply chain, but more so that they prioritized Amazon trucks over the r1s and r1t as well as killed off by perhaps pressure making a van for mercedes and ford and that obviously didn’t sit well with Ford who is more interested in the personal vehicle side. I’m not sure how much of all that is conjecture but when you have rivian saying they dropped mercedes because they need to focus but then you have RJ out there talking about building electric bikes and all sorts of other distractions then it might be true.
