Hi All. Stopped by the SC last week. Good news - a building permit was issued on May 12 with an expected completion date of October for what it’s worth.

I found some updates on Rivian Stories for the Ontario Service Centre copied below.
"Very exciting progress!!
I went by the Vaughan service center and the construction crews are hard at work.
I talked to a supervisor and I can confirm that the whole building is for Rivian alone. The lifts and most of the other equipment required to service the trucks has arrived and will be installed over the coming weeks.
Plumbing rough-in was complete and electricians were working in the offices.
Drywall scheduled to be completed over the next 3 weeks and projected completion is first week of October. So far no major hurdles since construction began."

Nice, I'd guess you'll be seeing substantial work complete, pending inspections October-ish. Depending on staff training hopefully selling vehicles out of that location before year's end. The good news is that the production ramp is underway, so whenever it opens, you'll have a boatload of vehicles

Thanks for finding this!
I hope the OP can provide us with regular updates. I would be happy to if it wasn’t so far from me.
Let’s see what the refreshed update brings. I was Oct-Dec 2023 on the last refresh.

Did everyone get their delivery estimate refresh pushed back to end of August? Or just the folks in Ontario due to the slow progress of the service centre?

I think they're planning something big for Canada. They can't keep pushing everything over. The more they wait, the more they lose money.
Had I ordered my vehicle today as opposed to 2021, it would cost me 40K extra. The quicker they fill orders, the lesser they lose to inflation. Let's be patient.
Speaking of which, if we downgrade our drivetrains to performance dual-motor, we get 700$ off. Made me smile. I am considering the downgrade because of the increased range... range is important for us Northerners. Can't wait to get real-life feedback on that dual-motor drivetrain.

Pushed back how? I have been Oct-Dec since 2 refreshes ago, no change as of a minute ago... did you get an e-mail? Or it just changed in your account?

The update to the timeline was pushed back. My timeline is still saying "Processing estimate".
Yes it was an email which I just can't find at the moment (must have deleted it). It was saying something like,
"Any changes to your configuration ...(forgot the words here)... will be reflected in the next scheduled update in August."
So, another month to wait to have the new estimate.
