Take pretty much a full day off to wait in line for a vaccination that doesn't happen
It was vaccination day for me & the wife too. Drove over an hour to small town TX, got right in & out, one shot J&J and done!

And a big thanks to our National Guard, who I didn't realize would be the manpower for the effort!

Amen regarding our National Guard! They have been stalwarts in an amazing variety of battles here, there, and everywhere! To all of them, all my best!

Regarding news about Rivian, this is what I heard coming out of Normal this week:

Hmm, If we can decide, this might be my slow speed sound on the R1T! Only seems fitting.

Re-igniting this thread because its like a placebo scratching that itch for more Rivian news... just seeing ideas of what news may come sooths it a tad

I'll go with EPA mileage ratings (I know that's very unoriginal)

My guess for the week is additional info regarding batteries being that RJ made a somewhat off the cuff announcement of Samsung SDI as the supplier, maybe tie that into EPA numbers (hint hint- nudge nudge). I'm interested in hearing full battery spec's, chemistry etc... So that someone on this forum can explain to me what it all means. Speaking of which where's Ajdelange?

I have found myself wondering the same. I figured he got sick of explaining to those who dont REALLY want the depth of answers he was providing.

I also noticed the tone of some of the "debates" he was getting in were less than cordial.

Yeah, he probably gave up. If nothing else he was informational. I didn't mind the condescension. It's just a forum, actually entertaining to read the back and forth.

I'm predicting accessory details for this week....again

I think they've been adding some new info on the support page around accessories as well, though I could be wrong.

When it’s time to accept orders and finalize your configuration, we’ll make sure you have the opportunity to adjust options or add available accessories and gear like the Quick Connect Crossbars and the spare tire.

So we have everyone's pipe dream of batteries/range. We have accessories. Any other guesses? Im going with the goods and hoping it's batteries, but I'm also guessing I'll be let down just a bit by it being something else.

Or possibly 45 days. They never promised May 1, only sometime in May.
