Do we have any idea what the PBA-to-delivery (or next step) is like for R1T deliveries right now? I figure R1S might be more, but that’s a reference point of some kind

My Guide said it can be 1-6 weeks. But caveated with they are working to refresh the dates and he will also get a clearer picture soon.

For folks you may know how the manufacturing process and QC work. How long does it take to actually put together a vehicle like this? From start of line to vehicle comes out the other end complete is it 1 day or 1 week or ...?

Also for QC is there one step done at the factory and another once it gets to the local service center? I'm trying to work backwards given what my guide told me was we get a PBA once a vehicle starts the line with our configuration.

As a supply chain pro ... I love your approach. However, AFAIK, no customer-bound R1S has been spotted in transit OR at the service centers. So, I think logic/math is out the window at this point.

Do keep in mind they're not running the line continuously. They start and stop based on supply chain constraints. Also keep in mind that Rivian seems to be revising the entire purchase process due to a variety of factors. Best to just relax and wait to be notified of the next step by Rivian as trying to guess is likely futile.

Congrats! I just got my email on Saturday from the guide and schedule my call for this coming Friday! (would love to talk sooner but that was the first time available this week) I am very anxious to learn more from my call this Friday - will let you know more. I did have my order with the "Ocean Coast" interior but I am sure I will probably have to compromise to black, which is okay in this case.

Might be, didn't really get into any details. Forgot asking about HUD, will follow-up during my next call.

Also felt like they were collecting as much feedback as they can on cosmetic upgrades
FWIW, I had a call with support in early January and asked about HUD because I’ve really liked it in my BMW. He said “no HUD” option.

At the moment I know that there is no HUD but you never know about future upgrades. As i said it just felt like they were gathering feedback.

Per my guide this morning, there will be an email to R1S reservations holders coming to reset expectations on delivery timelines, including those like myself in the Mar/April delivery window with signed PBA. The first time they have not stressed to me that we are "on track."
