I’m getting Punk’d by Rivian

[cohall]

I’ve decided that I’m definitely getting punk’d by Rivian.

My neighbor just got their R1T delivered today. Literally exact same specs as my configuration, Same color, same interior, same options. They posted lots of happy photos of taking delivery.

My neighbor ordered over 10 months after I did.

I’m losing my faith.

Patience is a virtue. This is not a forum for the virtuous though.

That would chap my ass too.

 

[Taycanfrank]

That's actually pretty messed up. I wonder how that could happen, is Rivian just doing random selection rather than going down the list? Bizarre.

 

[Zybane]

Wait, you are serious? How is this even possible?

 

[Mcdubjr]

Ouch. That’s gotta hurt.

That's some straight up BS.

I'd probably be sending off a sternly worded email

"Hey,

I am really confused. My neighbor just got a truck delivered that is the exact same config as mine and was ordered 10 months later.

I'd really appreciate some insight into how that happened.

Respectfully,
Mike"

I imagine that'd get some action.

But seriously it's some real nonsense.

That stinks. I would be fuming

Did your neighbor get a test drive? Maybe they thought it would placate you for another month.

" The first R1T trucks will be our Launch Edition — marked with special interior badging and offered in an exclusive Launch Green color option. Select this configuration and you'll be among the first in line for an Electric Adventure Vehicle. "

This is one of the reasons I ordered what I ordered. Apparently for naught as I watch all kinds of non-LE's get delivered to all kinds of much later order dates. Totally arbitrary, at least from the outside...and does not engender much good will on my part.

This isn't happening. Everything being delivered is a Launch Edition today. They are ignoring reservation date, but everyone who's gotten a truck has had an LE reservation.

Sorry to hear. You and I have identical stats. Same configs, same pre-order months, same city even. However my delivery window is one month back of yours. I feel your pain. Our time is almost here though!

correct. perhaps @davidaugust mistook the phrase "offered in an exclusive Launch Green color option" to mean "offered exclusively in Launch Green"?

Okay that's some hot garbage right there, time for an actual phone call.
