Same. I'm 99.999% done with Rivian, at this point.

Would you be willing to share what you intend to do? Keep/cancel your order, refuse delivery, buy for resale?

Undecided, at this time.

The Vulcan in me says to keep the reservation and make a final decision if Rivian ever asks me to finalize the order.

The Cave Johnson in me says get mad and cancel.

"When life gives you lemons, don't make lemonade. Make life take the lemons back! Get mad! I don't want your damn lemons, what the hell am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life's manager! Make life rue the day it thought it could give Cave Johnson lemons! Do you know who I am? I'm the man who's gonna burn your house down! With the lemons! I'm gonna get my engineers to invent a combustible lemon that burns your house down!"

I'm trying really hard to let the Vulcan win. But Cave Johnson is making a lot of sense, to me, lately.

When life gives you lemons, don't make lemonade. Make life take the lemons back!

When Rivian gives you urine make urinade…

The problem is only cancelling would send Rivian a message that their actions are pissing off would-be customers. But in the grand scheme - they will just happily sell to the next person and not even think twice.

In isolation, a cancelation means nothing to them.

You'd need a mass-cancellation to force their hand. Coordinating that is nearly impossible. In fact, it's impressive that Rivian screwed up so badly to experience such an event in March.

I reminded them I ordered the Launch Edition and did not make one configuration change in fear it would delay my order. I understood Launch to mean first one off the assembly lines. Maybe they meant Lunch edition. They will get to it after lunch.

Maybe you accidentally ordered the LAST Edition.

 

[dleepnw]

did you get the exact configuration you had placed or did they ask you if you would take a slightly different vehicle config?

Came in exactly as I had ordered. Just some accessories backordered.
