Ultimately, I don't want to base my life around Rivian. I love the truck in concept. I am frustrated by lack of information, but they are trying to mass produce EVs, not an easy logistical problem to solve. I get it. I look at it this way, if I move into a vehicle I am happy with right now (which would be the Rivian if available), then I am less frustrated by delays, and can make a more reasonable and sound purchase decision if/when Rivian actually starts delivering these. There are some things I would love to have that look like they are being delayed in the first iteration that hopefully will be in the second... like the roof and tailgate options for example. Even flat towing. While financially ( especially if I do purchase the LE version) this isn't the best choice, long term, it might be as I will be less inclined to compromise.Damn.... and here I thought that I was "impatient" waiting for my L.E. R1T that's not likely coming until late Winter, early spring 2022. So I bought a '21 Toyota RAV4-Prime PHEV to tide me over for give-or-take a year's time.
Long story short, I pick up my Tesla M3P on Monday. And, I hope, I am convinced to trade it in for the Rivian later this fall.
