I received my LE LG FE R1T on Monday here in NJ. 2020 Preorder. I made this YouTube Video (audio fixed!) of my home delivery experience via the Brooklyn SC, meeting my friend 2 miles away to see his twin truck delivery, and a collection of my initial impressions from my Instagram channel @FringeCarCollector.
I put about 60 miles on the truck and dropped it off for Paint Protection Film at Presidential Paint Protection in Hopewell NJ for Xpel full frontal PPF. They are local Rivian experts, and have two R1T’s in the shop this week! I Should be getting my truck back tonight and will add additional videos!
So far, most of my expectations are met or exceeded. Panel gaps are imperfect, and must have been worse because the door hinge hardware has been turned at the service center, cracking the paint on the bolts which is very disappointing. I also find the ride to be harsh even in soft mode, so I have a service call in for that to be evaluated.
Looking forward to getting some wheel time in later this week on a road trip, and some trailer towing in the following week!
