That's wild. more people in the Oct/Dec window are getting guides than those of us in July- September. this is getting frustrating.
@Getbacker23 Did you end up calling back your guide? Are you willing to share an update with us?
I don't understand either. I'm wondering if Rivian, as they're forming and scheduling batches/cohorts based on location and config, are reaching out to people with those batch configs and locations and locking them in? That *MIGHT* explain why some of us in the Oct-Dec window are being pulled in early???
Yes, it was for the R1T. We confirmed my config, and she sent the PBA within minutes of our conversation. The next step is waiting for the 8-step process to begin.
Yeah I think they maybe you are right. They might have specific supply availability and really dialing in batches for efficiency, but it stings when you see someone with the same config as you and a much later order date get their truck before you even get a guide contact. I mean there is a guy in SoCal who ordered in late 2021 and got his truck.....
Congrats!
I'm sorry for late reply, In the call my guide introduce himself to me, locked my R1T configuration, (need to call my guide to any change) signed PBA and delivery window still on Oct-Dev 2022. My R1T is Glacier White, 20” AT bright, BM interior, Full spare tire, Power tonneau cover, Oct-Dec 2022 window.
What was your preorder date? Did you have Adventure/Large configured when they announced the explore/max delay in December?
My R1t pre-order date on 11/21, I have Adventure package and large pack. No! I asked my guide about the R1T ETD, he said still in between Oct-Dec.
I did. The talk here about them dialing in batches with no significant impact to delivery windows makes sense to me. We will see.
It's unfortunate but I was prepared for my window to slip into 2023 so news of others getting their vehicles earlier only cements that feeling. I wonder how Rivian will handle the "Our production has been fully allocated to customers for 2022, see you in 2023" messaging? Or will they just save a few for December delivery so they can avoid saying it all together.
This gives me a lot of hope for taking delivery in 2022. I'm March '21 reservation, initially Max Pack but switched to Large in November last year. I'm on OC though so I won't get mine until "later this Fall".
