Arizona pre-orders

[Ikypoo]

Mesa, 10/20

I'm down in Chandler. I have two R1T's on order - a 300 mile and 400 mile variant. I ordered the 300 mile variant in 2020 thinking that it would show up later (silly me). I ordered the 400 mile vehicle 12/26/2018 - was my Christmas present to myself that year.

Right now, the 300 mile R1T window is Jul-September and the 400 mile variant is first half of 2023.

Ah okay. I am in North Phoenix less then 5 miles from the service center.

Looks like they are basing the demo drive off how close to the service center you are.

No calendar for me. I'm in central Phoenix. R1T preorder in 8/2020; R1S preorder 11/2021.

Yeah, that's what they said. It is very frustrating, especially since I offered to go to the service center and do a test drive there.

Sorry, Sept 2021 for the second R1T (300 mile) for me.

@Mark_AZR1T - Have you had a chance to use the air conditioned seats? Do they work well in the Arizona heat?

It worked really well today.....solid noticeable air flow takes a couple of minutes in this heat, but you can feel the air flow through the seats. Multiple speed fan as well. On a side note, some people have stated they can feel quite a bit of radiated heat coming through the glass roof...for me it was minimal.......Just picked the truck up today from OzBraz (Gilbert) after full front PPF install. Great job.....

i will wrap the front of my truck as well. Did OzBraz do a custom install or use a precut patterns? I know they are on the expensive side but have great reputation.

No calendar invite for me either. Reserved in March 2021 with July - September delivery. R1T large battery and adventure package. Located in eastern AZ.

Pre-cut. 8 mil on the front bumper area. I called three places all $2000-2100 with thicker up front. Bumper, silver under piece in satin, fenders, pillars, mirrors, door handles.....They are in that range. Outstanding job.

Sounds reasonable. I had PPF installed on a Tesla M3 three years ago and was $1400. Factor in larger vehicle size and inflation, and $2000 is fair. Thanks.

Spoke with my Rivian Guide, Hossain today. He said I was his first R1S customer. Said I was one of the first few hundred preorders (11/28/18). He told me once I confirm everything it will 6-12 weeks. He thought I would be closer to 6 six weeks, which puts me at the end of May. He said there is not a final R1S owner’s manual and they cannot delivery any R1Ss until they have an owner’s manual.
I am getting very excited.
