What a bunch of marketing babble.

I honestly had no idea I was purchasing a yuppie truck; I hope I don't need a man bun to complete my order.

Was glad to get the invite from Rivian - I'm hoping that means OC (I'm near Irvine) should be in the sphere for our R1S LE.

I would have opted to build a delivery and service center with my limited resources instead of this place. But Maybe this is why I'm not running a multibillion dollar company.
Still I'll bet the preorder holders near Venice would rather have their trucks than a cool place to hang out while they wait for their trucks. One last comment... so are we still thinking they are too busy to get that mech. thing going so I can get a branded hoodie?

If Patagonia and REI had a baby and it was a truck, you’d get an R1.

I don’t own a puffy vest so I assume the R1T will come with one

I think I'll just wait for a first mile event to see the truck. I have zero interest in going anywhere near Venice at this point, even though its about 1.5 hours away from me.

Is this invite only on Sunday? I am going to be in the area anyway and was thinking of swinging by before my flight back on Sunday afternoon.

People keep referencing an invitation, but the story says, "The Rivian Venice Hub will open to the general public starting October 17. Sign up for special events here: https://calendly.com/rivian-venice-events."

Was there a separate communication for local folks that was for a specific event?

Well, back in April 2020 they told me it would be out later in the year...


And then they told me the same in July 2020:


And then they got tired of me asking about it:

Yes I received an invite to the event. There was an option to sign up for a 3 hour timeslot on Friday or Saturday October 15 or 16.

OH, so that's different. I think most of us are referencing the open to the public time starting on Sunday the 17th.

Marketing? It’s almost like they want to sell more than just the initial 48K Rivians... What a bunch of morons.

Seriously some of the people on this board are so grumpy about life that I’m relieved I will not be encountering them at any of these events. Rivian should send you all (wet) camping blankets.

Place to gather? 90% of the items they listed has nothing to do with the truck. ha, what a waste of time. Not interested in driving 1 hour to see a bunch of homeless everywhere.
Then don’t?
