I received an email today from my guide and followed up with a phone call. I will be picking up my R1T at the factory on March 31st! That was an unexpected and very pleasant surprise! Been waiting a long time so I'm pretty pumped to actually get the vehicle in hand.

May/June R1T, LE, LG, FE, Off road, 20in All-Terrain. I haven’t even seen a Rivian except in pictures so hope there is a driving event in New England next month.

Any others in this delivery window feeling like me.... on the outside. I fall into the middle of the length of time since reservations began being a mid-2020 depositer. I have a LE R1T with the green LE interior selected - before things froze with pricing-gate. Since then nothing has really happened outside the general messaging comms. I didn't get one of those Friday Update emails either.

I realize that May-June means there's still like 90-days to go so feeling left-out is kind of a strange things to say. But there sure has been an avalanche of early Guide notifications and rapid turns. I guess I'm just hoping to hear from a few others in the same boat that my situation is much more common that it feels to me.

Same her. I think most or all R1T LE’s with forest edge interiors are may/June. I did get the Friday email though. Just said my acct page would be reverted to the old pricing on Monday. Not expecting guide contact for a couple months.

The LE R1T’s w/ FE interiors may be the rarest Rivian’s ever made.

It is our FE interior. We'll be last to be contacted.

Up until the email and phone call today I was basically in the same boat and feeling in the dark.

I'm going to go WAY OUT on a limb and guess that the reason that some are getting invited to take factory delivery is that they have vehicles built that they don't have transport for. Several people in different industries I've talked with recently have referenced backlogs with trucking and if you look at the people that they've reached out to they are all within the driving range of a full charge from the factory. Again, pure speculation so take that with for what it's worth.

My config is El Cap with Black Mountain interior with a reservation date of 06/30/2020. They said they would UPS me the accessories within a couple of weeks which adds to the speculation above.

The following line was in the email I received from the guide about the opportunity for a factory delivery opportunity next week .. for what it's worth.
If the timing doesn’t work for you, no sweat — you’re still tracking to your estimated delivery window.

I’m feeling the same way. I have LG exterior with BM interior and still no contact.

Close. They don't have the time to transport. They are trying to deliver as many vehicles as possible by 3/31.

Has anyone from Southern California received an email from their guide? I just checked my configuration. It still shows the higher pricing. I was hoping for some progress at this point.
he price updates aren't supposed to be live on the website until next week. They sent out an email saying as much.

I keep checking to see if I got a guide on the off chance that a truck matching my config is sitting in Portland looking for a home. But I also realize that I'm not supposed to hear anything for another 4-8 weeks.

Also, on the Friday emails make sure you didn't accidentally opt out email communications from Rivian - that could be the culprit.

Did you get an option for a factory tour?

There was nothing in the email or the phone call about a factory tour. They only mentioned factory pick up. I wish it would include a tour.

If it makes you feel better, there are still many of us in the April/May group, who ordered long before you, and haven’t heard a peep.

I don't feel better about it but I do truly feel empathy for folks in your shoes. Assuming it must be due to getting either the R1S and/or interior color other than BM.
