I wanted to get the opinion of the collected wisdom here on the subject.
i have a demo scheduled on Tuesday for an R1T. I have been watching them for a while, but several things held me back. I am now pretty serious about getting one, but I am not sure about timing.
My preference is to lease due to the volatility of EV development. I feel like in the next 3 years battery technology is going to take a leap and if purchased now, the value will take a significant hit. That said, I live in TN where leasing is not an option.
i also know they are coming up on a production halt to retool, change some things about the vehicle. I wonder how this will impact quality when they come back having new procedures on building the vehicles.
I feel like if I am going to get a Rivian, I need to purchase before the halt. I don’t want a crazy configuration, Performance DM with Standard + battery, 21 inch tires. Color more than likely just la Silver.
I would like to hear any pluses/minuses I may not be thinking of.
