LA Los Angeles area First Mile test drives @ Aqua Dulce after Thanksgiving

[like2short]

From the rep at the Sonoma event. It will be in Aqua Dulce in north Los Angeles county. Will start after thanksgiving. The staff at Sonoma’s event is from all over the country and Rivian employees. Usually events like this are hosted by contractors.

Wow, that would be great. Not more than 30 miles from our house. Easy to get to on HWY 14. Lots of natural terrain.

Anyone know if people able to do a normal test drive at these events? Like on city streets, a freeway, etc, just like you would from a car dealership. I mean, I'd love to take it off-road for fun but 98% of my driving is going to be on roads.

There won't be one. Just mobile drives of an individual truck.

Sounds good. Lots of space to do lots of things.

Crap, right forgot that it was only select cities.

Well I'm seeing a Choose Your Own Adventure scenario then...

Sonoma ends 11/21. The staff will have week of thanksgiving off. I’m not sure exactly when they will get aqua dulce up, but it will be after turkey day.

There are plenty of paved roads in the area as well as off road capabilities plus close proximity to freeway.

ya, I know there are roads nearby - asking if the test drives have let you go there at past events or just on a fixed course / route.

If you can manage that in 30 to 45 minutes? Sure.

Bummer. That’s over 90 miles away. No way they’ll send me an invite!

That seems like an odd choice, that is way north. I would have expected something more central to LA and Orange County.

I would think they will need to stretch the radius if that is really the location to get all of the slots filled.

The Sonoma location is nearly 90 miles north of San Jose and about 47 miles north of Oakland. They use natural terrain for the demo.
