A Land Rover that’s made entirely of electrics? No thanks

You’re right, but honestly there’s nothing better than putting thousands of miles on someone else’s car while yours is in the shop. Had a couple and had all sorts of problems with them. Despite all that, I loved them (yes, it’s not reasonable I know).
Somehow, I would do it again (and by now with all the stories we’ve heard with Rivians, I know we’ll be on the same boat - minus the awesome loaner cars).

Edit: I should have just replied “what could go wrong” ?

This topic again?

Go ahead and complain about the cupholders next. Or CarPlay.
These are legit complaints.

I acknowledge your point about this being hashed out over and over again though.

Maybe that's just a sign that these are more than minor inconveniences that need to get addressed by Rivian in some way going forward.

I agree cupholder and CarPlay are inconvenient. You can’t convince me that the R1S only coming in a 7 seater is inconvenient, especially for “more storage” or “weight savings” as the OP said, on a vehicle as large and heavy as the R1S already is. As a person who has probably only had myself and 3 other people max in my car the last 10 years, you can’t convince me the extra row is cumbersome, due to lack of storage or too much weight.

You'll get to know the service center really well
I’ve never even taken my land rover to the dealer and I’m on a first name basis with the service manager somehow ?
