Today, we took delivery of a Red Canyon R1T, and we're unsure why we didn't choose this color from the get-go. Our original R1T was repurchased by Rivian due to paint issues and ongoing mechanical issues that Rivian Service could not properly address. During the repurchase process, we were allowed to make any configuration changes. We ended up choosing a pre-built unit that was already on the ground in Normal.

Welcome home, Red Canyon w/ Ocean Coast on 22" Sport Dark wheels. Our guide stated there are only 6 assembled units (including ours) that match this spec, so that’s a cool stat to have in our pocket (for now).

Few shots with the GW/OC R1T heading back to Rivian. In the next few days, I'll get a few photos of Red Canyon next to our Rapid Red Mach-E.

I agree red canyon looks really amazing and I saw a stealth wrapped VERSION the other day and it was probably the best looking (Rivian) I’ve seen!

Heavily considered the stealth but I can't cover up the beautiful flake in this paint. We considered stealth limestone and forest green. Gotta let the RC shine bright!

Yeah this is the one color that stealth would look pretty bad on for sure. It would ruin the color shift of the paint and would just appear a plain red.

Most kids stealth-wrap their virginity. Nobody wants to be called out for being late to the party 😆

I was looking for some answers to why I am not seeing the RC around as much, I am in Irvine, where the HQ is 3 minutes from us, and service center 5 minute, I have seen so many Rivian's around but hardly ever seen a red one ... I ordered mine in red and was wondering why people are not picking up that color I was thinking there is something wrong with the color ... or Myself lol

I've seen very few RC, CY and MB - definitely more of the rare colors...

It's definitely you, you should switch to Limestone pronto!

All kidding aside, The RC is a very pretty color. I just worry if it ever needs body work it's going to be a bear to match

My order was originally for Rivian Blue - until I visited the Denver SC this past spring and saw a Red Canyon R1T. Changed my order that same day!

We just took delivery of a Canyon Red last week too and we love it. Ours is on 21 inch wheels and black mountain with dark ash interior. Also have the underbody for adventures. We originally had a Forest Green configured but gained access to the shop and switched to this.

RC is the most surprising color IMHO. It looks so good in person. Photos don't really capture how nice it is.
