R1S Shop access live with lots of inventory!

[Sevn86]

There is one of those in there now (LE GW OC 22 Brights). I think each region shows different inventory as I don’t see what was posted above but a different mix.

Thanks for posting! This one even has PPF. I would jump on that immediately if I had access.

That’s good to know. I would like to get back into the shop asap and hopefully be able to snag an LE GW/ OC or BM with 22” bright wheels.

Thanks to all in this thread for pointing me in the right direction and giving feedback along the way. I got access to the shop (no email letting me know) late Tuesday, 5/30. Didn't see one that jumped out at me, so I reluctantly went to sleep. I woke up about seven hours later, refreshed, and my exact configuration was available! GW/BM/AT Dark. It didn't have the AT package, so I wasn't even forced to upgrade to the RUS. I am extremely happy to have snagged it.

I spent most of yesterday not doing actual work, but instead working on things like getting offers for my current vehicle, quoting insurance, and completing the 8 steps. The only step that remains is the payment, which I understand I should hold off on until just before delivery.

Thanks again for all the help and info!

Identical sequence of events for me. Tuesday evening access and pulled the trigger on one first thing Wednesday morning. I got started on the 8 steps right away, but quickly stalled on step 3 waiting for the "Rivian Team" to calculate fees and taxes for a final amount. Still stuck there this morning. I wonder why that isn't fairly automatic. I've waited 27 months so far, I guess a couple days more shouldn't faze me. Good luck on yours!

Correct - can't see it until you commit. Don't know why Rivian does it this way - makes no sense to me. There is enough demand for these vehicles that they should all get picked up.

I honestly wish we could see the VIN. That would’ve been a great feature to have in the shop.

That's interesting. I asked my guide when I had shop access back in March and was told that she couldn't see the VIN for each vehicle in the shop. Not sure I entirely believe that - perhaps she didn't want to be fielding calls/emails from customers each time a new vehicle popped up.

As has been noted before, the guide experiene varies greatly depending on who you get.

Anyone that recently got shop access, can you share how long it took to get access after the request was put in?

It took just over 2 days (perhaps 52 hours) from when my guide said yes to shop access for me to actually be able to see the shop.

I got access 3 business days after making the request. I kept checking my account for the green banner since I heard of folks not getting an email letting them know about access. I didn’t receive an email about it until 4 days after making the request and it was to remind (?) me about the shop access. So, thanks to folks contributing to the forum, I saved a day.

when did you get access?

i guess i'm looking for people who got access in the past few days.
my request was put in over a week ago and still nothing

Same, I never even got a notice saying my access was granted. I was just checking a lot

20" wheels without the A/T Upgrade. And a recent VIN. Did they run out of compact spare tires at the factory?

I thought the same, and honestly, having the compact spare right out of the gate was the only reason I was willing to grab an AT upgrade if it came to that. Based on other people’s posts before my shop access, nearly all required/included the upgrade. I had talked myself into it. Now, I’m just going to have to monitor the gear shop like crazy for the compact spare come back in stock. I hope it isn’t long.

Well awkawardly I may have to delay factory pickup tmr, they found a paint defect on the vehicle.

Update... I contacted my guide about being stuck waiting for fee and tax calculations. She said that was odd, reset my 8 steps and I was immediately good to go.
