Very excited... for my wife... for whom this vehicle is being purchased for. We have 3 boys, currently our stable of vehicles includes a 2017 Raptor, a 2019 Tesla Model S and a 2020 Subaru Ascent.
I have a dealer offer to buy my Raptor and I'm likely gonna pull the trigger on that in the next week or so. The Subaru Ascent is an amazing outdoors, camping vehicle for 3 kids with the 3rd row and towing capability but my wife wants something a little bigger. I want to go all-electric but my wife wants something that appears bigger than the Model X and truth be told - I don't want to spend that much money on an X anyway. The Rivian had been on the radar, but I just wasn't fully sold since we live in Minnesota and take many trips up north throughout the year to which I enjoy being able to do round trip in the Subaru without stopping for gas (about 330 miles). I think the 300+ RS1 is going to be good enough for us, and if the max pack gets announced during pre-orders without too much delay I'll likely switch over to that, otherwise I'm just playing the waiting game like so many of you all. I also was a Day 1 second 1 Cybertruck reservation holder.. I will be trading in the Model S for that to by my daily when it releases.
For the people who have ordered RS1 is there a better reason to change to adventure other than the sound upgrade? I prefer the gloss black mirror caps, and the matte black trim vs the wood grain so to me it seems like I'm just upgrading for sound?
