Sorry if this has been posted already. Nothing really new here, just noting that the lack of communication and they all seem resigned to a much longer wait than anticipated.

Interesting. What a change of tone from their other videos that I've seen. Even the fanboys (their term) are sick of Rivian's BS anti-communications strategy.

But it's true that it's completely indefensible for Rivian not to have not even acknowledged their inability to meet the October deadline they set for themselves.

Presumably the quiet period doesn't prevent Rivian from proliferating info in their filings right? There's tons of information in them, basically all of the info we've been wondering about, and it wouldn't take a lot of effort for Rivian to convey that info to their customers themselves.

Hell, I'd probably even give them a pass if they explicitly just said something like it being an exciting time as they start delivering vehicles and that they'll have more information once they are free to share it again.

I'll wait for someone to post the summary rather than watch a video... to hear about a delay?

Seems like a waste of video bandwidth.

Here’s the summary: “I want, I Want, I WANT, I WAAAAANNNNNTTTTT!” as squealed in the voice of a petulant child demanding the latest toy NOW or at least S00N! ?

They addressed this issue and explicitly said this wasn't about delivery timing. Instead, they said that what Rivian needs to do is communicate, that it would be much better if Rivian provided people with info, and it's really disappointing that they aren't.

That’s a pretty bad summary… I mean who sounds like the petulant child here?

Literally none of what your wrote is accurate. The entire discussion was regarding improved communication, and there was zero whining.

Haha did I miss something? Sorry context?
I believe that was you who made that statement in the video when you were attempting to figure out a reason for Rivian silence.

Am I wrong?

A bit after here (started earlier for some context):
