My poor R1S totaled but saved my life

Got into a major crash yesterday when someone ran a red light and smashed me. It saved my life I am pretty sure.

Glad you're okay. Looks like a Gen 2 is in your future.

Yeah that’s the silver lining. Question is: I got early pricing on this one so wondering if they will do the same for a
gen 2?

Glad you were uninjured. Amazing to see the damage on the other car with a complete crushing of the hood compared to the Rivian.

No early pricing for 2025s. You may get the loyalty bonus of owning a earlier model.

Luckily insurance should pay based on what you would buy an equivalent used R1S for. So if you got pre-price increase you are still that much more equity than someone else would be in the same situation that don’t have price protection.

The early reservation pricing was basically a dealer discount of 20%. So insurance should pay out based on the actual value of the vehicle.

Glad you’re ok.

Sucks to lose your car, but boy did it do its job.

They would not give me any loyalty discount for my replacement after it getting totaled....we just got our replacement Gen 2 on Wed.

How long to get your Gen2 from the time yours got totaled?

Totally sucks, and glad the vehicle kept you safe. If you installed ANYTHING you should remove it from the vehicle. I'd also take the mats, camp speaker, charging cable, and temp spare tire kit if you purchased it.

Don’t forget the $200 flashlight!
