Colorado Checking In

[Sgt Beavis]

Driving south on 287 from Longmont to Erie and came across a white 1st edition. Every time I see it, I love it!

Thank you!
I hope I can remain an honorary member of the Denver pity party!

And until it's actually in my driveway, I still have a bit of skepticism haunting me...

My co-host status may be short lived....my 8 steps opened up today and I have a VIN in the portal.

Don't fret. You and @cohall will hold "Long Reservation Holder Emeritus" status. Busts of you both will be mounted in the Denver Service Center. There are plenty of us 2023 delivery window folks to take over.
And, congratulations!

Thanks and this is by far a greater honor than I deserve! One question...instead of the bust, can I get that in a cash reward? I suddenly find myself in need of a large sum of money.

I hate you...

But congratulations nonetheless! I am just begging for a response from my Guide, as I have told her I will take any configuration that happens to become available. But all I can hear are crickets and the tiny violin I am playing.

Yikes. Have you considered asking CS for a new guide? It feels like they should have matched you up with a VIN a couple weeks ago.

If its any consolation, I'm now in delivery "purgatory," with my delivery canceled last week and no response or clarity from my guide on what needs to be repaired or when my truck will be repaired.

Not yet, but I am approaching that line now. I am trying to remain patient, but if I don't hear back in the next couple of days, I may just have to go that route. I understand that the Guides are doing their best with what info they have, but just some acknowledgement of communications would be nice. I check my "vehicleID" daily, so fingers crossed I get something soon!

Picked up my R1T today! There were still lots of trucks on the lot, though still no Yellow. There were even some in the expanded area to the east. No R1S yet.

R1S or T?

oops. Original post fixed. It's an R1T. Sorry to get anyone's hopes up.

Hello fellow Coloradoans!

So, August 2019 preorder (R1T LE, LE Green, BM Interior, Underbody Shield), March/April Delivery window (yeah....not so much), finally an April 26th PBA completed, had a VIN, then lost a VIN, was apparently reassigned a VIN (though I don't have that actual # yet from my Guide), and now apparently waiting on a production slot?

Not sure how that all works but does anyone have an idea of timing on delivery from when a VIN is assigned to get a build through production? So far, about two weeks of "you have VIN, but nothing is being done to something associated to said VIN!" Does anyone have experience with how long it actually takes to manufacture from when a VIN was apparently assigned?

Thanks all!

Unfortunately Rhidan’s delivery got cancelled due to a paint problem. I’m (hopefully) picking mine up tomorrow at the SC and will report back on the process/experience.

May I ask what paint color you chose? (In case there's a correlation between the paint color and paint issues.)

Red Canyon. I don’t think there’s an issue with the color specifically. A member from Colorado posted here receiving my exact specification this past week. Just bad luck, and I don’t think Rivian is doing enough to protect paint in transit from Illinois.

 

[Aardvark]

I've visited the Denver service center a few times, but have never seen a Rivian in the wild- until today.
While riding my bike west of Monument, I saw a Launch Green R1T.
If you are on the forum, congratulations! That's a beautiful truck.

If anyone is planning on heading over to the service center in the next few days, please message me. Have a favor to ask about a VIN! Thanks!
