[Delivery Day] - Where Will You Go First?

[Bumble1978]

Apologies if this thread has been done already...I'll gladly take it down, but I could not find one...

-------

Let's take a breath and live in a magical future-state where all of this anxiety, confusion, and unknown is behind us (and we're hopefully all laughing really hard becuase it was indeed much-ado-about-nothing...)

So assuming everything goes well with all the things and you're picking up your Rivian of choice...probably going to feel like we just won the Superbowl and those in Driving distance could go to Disneyland...or those wanting to test out a Road Trip immediately...



So...yeah...there it is...where are you going first?

For us...

Guessing we'll have the dogs with us and go for a drive to Mount Rainier or something and back. It'll be Spring Time-ish 2022...so...there are fewer options than the warmer months. Maybe Leavenworth?

Kind of did something here like that : https://www.rivianforums.com/forum/threads/what-will-you-do-when-you-take-delivery.536/post-6731

But now that we did a trip like that I think Assuming if we get by Middle September my first destination will be from Washington DC to White Sand Dunes National Park in New Mexico.

For us, probably home since its a good hour West of Austin ;-) where they will probably want to do the pick up from. That and the fact that we live on some nice twisty unpopulated roads ;-)

But we will be visiting family East in Texas quite a bit so hoping that CCS network continues to build out quick besides at Walmarts with EA.

I’m planning on picking up from the factory and taking a 3-4 day leisurely cruise back to Dallas. Other than that no big plans for a road trip.

Guessing I get mine in early spring of 2022 as well, so boarding at Crystal. Unless Rivian really lets me down.

first adventure will be packing my coolers/tents/booze to leave PDX and head to my favorite camping spot on Mt. Hood.

SF to OC to see family and let them see the new truck, but then also play and test Driver+ capabilities on the roadtrip.

For me it’s going to be a trip to Ohio State University which is 200 miles from my house. Depending when I get my LE R1T here are the basic plans:

• Delivery by mid-Aug: take my daughter back to school.
• Delivery in the Fall: go to a Ohio State football game and tailgate with my spare tire compartment full of ice and beer. Better yet, maybe use the frunck to fit more beer and ice!!
• Delivery by mid-Dec: pick up my daughter for the holidays.

Ride along the California coastline, then inland to the mountains and possibly all the way out to the high desert. Will bring along my Skydio 2 self-flying drone to take 4K action video of the R1T beauty shots at various stops along the way.

Probably to In-n-Out Burger.

I live on the east coast, I have a LE on order which I hope to get before October, as I have a squadron reunion on the west coast. A 5000 mile road trip staying mostly in national parks along the way should be a good break-in. Should probably mention this to my wife sometime soon.

Did this last year as I was suppose to do it in the Rivian but ended up in a RV as it worked out pandemic wise. If you need any tips lmk! Logistics is key haha.
