Mine is for sure taking longer. I got my lock your config email on Nov 30th and only spoke with the guide today. I have a feeling the PPF is pushing me back. I told the guide I wasn't married to the PPF option.

Well I’m evidence it could be very quick!

I guess it depends on how/how often the trucks are transported from the plant. Maybe ask your guide if there’s an update on the truck’s location.

Have you finished the 8 steps?
Guide just called me out of no where saying the truck is on the way, I am at 6/8 for now..
At my work in Michaelson and Jamboree, Rivian rented a garage space for over flow cars from the SC, i was leaving and Rivian employees were bringing cars, so I asked them how long it takes to get a car from Normal to Costa Mesa, they said 2 days... and he looked up my name he said Delivery ETA is early next week...

Anyone else get excited to see an email from Rivian today only to be disappointed to see it be a Rivian Service Center in Action note? Ugh, I was so deflated!

I got that too. I peaked at my screen, saw “Rivian” and my eyes widened, tapped the email notification, and said screamed internally. Good read since it was the Denver center though. Seems like they have a good culture there.

Well I think I might have to postpone taking delivery. I'm sure someone will give my truck a good home.
what made you change your mind, if you don’t mind me asking?

I have a trip coming up this Monday. I don't return until after new year. Things moved so fast, basically everything opened up for me one day and even the truck is already at the center. So we'll see. I think maybe someone else cancelled lol.

I have the sneaking suspicion that some folks are waiting for the 2023 year VIN's I don't think anything is actually changing in the model though.

Totally anecdotal but just from a quick scan through those that are reporting 8 steps, it seems like Rivian may have gone with some big batches of Xmas colors. Lots of Red and Green showing up this month. Maybe?
Bummer for the Limestoners like me but good for many of you!

If the shop is any indication of batch outputs, there's a ton of unwanted black/white/red/yellow trucks. Limestone, ECG, and Silver either get snatched up very quickly or are not as prioritized.

Anecdotally, limestone seems to be one of the most popular colors in the PNW, which has me conflicted come resale time...
