Official Video: How Does it Feel to Drive a Rivian (Featuring Preorder Holders)

[jimcgov3]

Sure seems like this John Rhodes fellow has the inside track to Rivian. I see on the facebook group that he has already gotten several things from the company including a water bottle for being part of a focus group and the blanket that is the same as the wrap that they had the video of the kids coloring and now gets more stuff for this event. I hope he is a good representative for us reservation holders. Can't say that I am not jealous but I am definitely happy to see progress.

SO John started the Rivian Automotive Fans page on FB w/ over 10K members. He is also a day one reservation holder on both the T and S. I could go on and on, but I don't want to sound like I am bragging about the guy. Ha. Stay tuned...

When do you guys expect to post the interview?

What do pre-order holders "look like"?

Kyle,

To answer your question, I'm the one on left. I think you know the other guy by now. And this, folks, is what Launch Green looks like. If you look carefully, you'll also see the Rivian Grin stuck on my face, just as it was on all of the small, but very fortunate group in attendance. My face is hurting now as that grin is still there.

To a person, we all felt extremely fortunate to have been selected. To say it was life-altering to be a part of it is not an exaggeration for me, and I'm not even talking yet about the R1Ts we were allowed to sprint, drift, climb, rock-crawl, and fly through fields of tall grass in.

I'll be adding more later today, as I'm still trying to get down from Cloud Nine after last week. I'll just let you know these vehicles are just as awesome as the team that is currently building them.

I think many of you know I'm pretty upbeat and optimistic. I went into this event with unrealistically high expectations, and somehow, RJ and the entire Rivian family managed to blow my expectations out of the water.

How's that for a teaser....Oh yeah, along with 130 MPH....

More to follow.....

Launch Green...I kind of love it

That looks more like what I would expect Limestone to look like than Launch Green.

Congrats @DuckTruck! A nicer guy could not have been picked. I'm very glad you were one selected to attend.

Damn...gotta switch it back from Rivian Blue now. LG w/ Forest Edge interior?

Yea, This is close to what I was hoping Limestone would be like. I still hope its more green than gray.

But now I'm more jealous than ever that I missed out on the LE, because that color is awesome!

After months of people complaining about not seeing LG, we get a real picture of it and people on this forum complain.

Sigh. At least nitpick over something of merit like the panel gaps.

I hope it's just the camera angle or an optical illusion on those uneven gaps and misalignments.

What? I only see positives responses on the LG now. I switched back to LG based on this picture. I love that color.
