What We Do Not Know - Important Information Still Needed to Make an Informed Decision

[DaveA]

There’s still ~8 months before R1S deliveries start. They might achieve true level by then!

Or maybe we can nag them into it like we did with the black wheels on the LE

As long as its not a $3,500 option!

Your pup on the right looks identical to the big guy I had. Such great dogs!

If the 3rd row doesn't fold flat enough to properly support the floor of a dog crate then I may have to forego the LE and wait for the 2 row Adventure. Really wish the 2 row version were available with LE. Not only do I not want to have to wait until 2022 for my R1S and lose the LE "perks" but I have absolutely zero use for 3rd row seating.

Ha. The so called “LE” perks mean nothing to me. Don’t want “launch green” and don’t care about LE “interior badging” that means absolutely nothing. The only benefit is the wheel upgrade cost being included if you want one of those options. I’m all-in on the 5 seater and possibly max pack. I also don’t mind waiting.

I was primarily referring to the $1800 wheel upgrade although I have not ruled out Launch Green until I can see all the colors in person (or at least some decent photos). And I very much do mind waiting, I've been waiting long enough as it is. No clue yet if I care about Priority Delivery.

Priority delivery simply means 2021.

From Rivian Customer Service via e-mail:

* How and where would I take delivery?

We will come to you. This will be a unique and special process, specifically designed to surprise and delight our customers.

He looks so remorseful

 

[ajdelange]

He really didn't seem much phased (it hurts to look at the picture) and wasn't remorseful enough to refrain from bothering porcupines in the future. I guess it's pretty common up there. When I called the vet the receptionist called out "Doc, I've got a man with two quill dogs. Can we fit him in?". The customs guy just said "Guess I don't have to ask where you are headed."

Hmmm . . . trying to think of what this means in terms of info from Rivian. Maybe: we need information on an optional (required?!) porcupine quill removal set?

Glad to hear the dog was no worse for wear.

What it means is that if you have a Rivian full of Leonbergers in the Quebec woods, don't let them out of the car.

Most of the damage was to the owner's wallet even though the owner did half the work (the vet gave him a shot which knocked him out and then gave me and a tech each a pair of haemostats and said get to work and when we were finished he gave him another shot which woke him up).
