Adventure R1T, Large Pack, Glacier White, OC in NJ - ordered Dec 4, 2018. Pretty annoyed by the window of July - Sept '22 TBH. Not that surprised by overall timeline but that people who ordered same spec but over 2 and a half years later are receiving the same window. No one without a non-LE order has received notice of a Q1 or Q2 delivery that I've seen. This all seems like a gigantic 'leave us alone for a few months' move by Rivian. The communication from the company absolutely blows. I was on a chat with CS earlier and I might as well have talked to my 6 year old for all the clarification I got.

If you go through with it and do long distance towing, I would love to hear your thoughts on switching to Electric after Hybrid. Long distance towing still gives me a bit of hesitation with both Lightning and Rivian.

Do you want Rivian sending a bunch of adventure trims out before they mostly complete the launch editions? I'm not seeing what the annoyance is here. Launch editions are supposed to have priority delivery, right? We knew their delivery windows were basically Q1 and Q2, with a few Q3 stragglers.

People ordering the same non-LE spec, 2.5 years after mine, getting the same window - yeah, that's annoying. Nothing to do with LE timeline.

Sure it does. You're in the first wave of non-LE specs. There's just a very small number of people who ordered large pack adventure trims during the LE window. They seemingly plan to be pumping out a decent number of trucks by then. I'd guess <10% of the orders prior to the cutoff for launch editions were large pack adventure trim. Then from 11/20 to into sometime early 2021, the numbers are small enough that they think they can deliver that whole chunk in that 3 month time period.

Would you be happier if your window was July to September, and the others were August to October?

I would be happier with individualized communication with build dates and actual production schedule instead of vague windows and lame excuses for missing every date and production target so far. I'm old enough to remember every Tesla problem since placing an order for my first X in Jan 2014 and day one reservation on the Model 3. This smells different. There is no aggression in their efforts to ramp up. I don't think they have the right people to do so. 2022 is going to be a disaster for them. Q1 can be written off entirely right this minute due to Omicron alone.

It sounds like the CS claim of gradual distribution of delivery windows may have been false. There is no indication of any Non-LE members receiving a window so far.

Just got my delivery window. Order number 1224 placed in November 2018 for an Explorer. Deliver window first half of "2023"
