Sad but great story here (I couldn’t find anything with the search function, but the gentleman was probably on here…): I thought I was the first official delivery of a Rivian in Quebec last June (per Rivian), but it turns out I was not – there had been a single delivery in January 2023.
A recently retired gentleman had ordered his R1T in 2019, found out he had Lou Gherig’s disease and that he probably would not, considering the delays for Canadian deliveries, ever get to drive his truck.
He wrote to RJ on LinkedIn. RJ had him come for a factory visit and a test drive in 2022. In January 2023, they delievered his R1T to his house – no idea how they managed that in a market which had yet to be opened - it wasnt even close back then.
He never got to drive his truck and passed away last week.
That is one classy CEO.
