I live right by the Tyson's Tesla... I hope Rivian opens up something like this, but I am not hopeful given they've ignored this region up to this point.

On Rivians website they have a Position open for a Washington DC Facility Manager so I am guessing downtown with concierge service to drop off and pick up.

I hope not. It takes 3 weeks to get an appointment. But then you can go to Rockville or Springfield.

Virginia is a middle of the road state in terms of allowing sales without dealerships (NADA is just down the road from the Tysons Tesla store) so I'd guess that the initial service centers (if that's what they do) will be in the District or MD.

Lots of jobs posted at Rivian, but nothing in Oklahoma - or even Texas. Hope they donā€™t forget us out here when it comes to delivery/service.

I'm in 22101 as well. Dulles would be fine. I'd guess there would be advantages to Rivian being close to an international airport with freight options. The service pitch on the website notes they would be providing transport to the service center and loaners, so where the center is located is a little less important.

Can confirm Rockville and Herndon will have service locations.
Rockville isnt that bad for me, but I was hoping for something closer to Baltimore metro area. I mean if they are going to come pick it up for me anyway, I guess it wont matter.

Think Richmond, VA qualifies as being "close enough" to the DC service center to deliver an RS1?

Confirmed Richmond has their own service locations as well.
