Rivian email: Introducing the R1 Shop

[Acoustic71]

oh, I see it's become the "ordered in 2021 double-green" battle here. I will rock-paper-scissors with my 7 months of superiority over you!

Given the natural order of all things Rivian, kurtlikevonnegut and I will more than likely take delivery prior to yours. And I say that as a former Athhole from Masshole.


EDIT: I case other forum members do not understand that I am not picking on JGard18 I offer the following:

In the 1980's (at least) anyone from Athol, MA was often referred to as an Athhole. The Masshole part was anyone from Massachusetts.

I'll Rock Paper Scissors you for it

Fine by me, so long as we do the Rock, Paper, Scissors, Spock version.

Tony's heads up email was nice but Rivian really just needs to get those updated delivery windows out ASAP now.

 

[R1Sky Business]

More opaque nonsense. They don't even have the guts to just say R1S won't be delivered until xx.

SooN

Did anyone else not get an email? Asking again in case it got Lost lol.

 

[R1Sky Business]

Doesn't sound good for R1S orders.

Next yr

You're the only one on the "Do not contact Kanundrum" list.

Hope that helps

Back in the WBCN days I recall those jokers doing a fake ad for a segment on that Chronicle or Evening Magazine show about Peter Falk visiting Athol Massachusetts. (Oh it’s just beautiful!)

…Tonight on Chronicle, don’t miss Falk in Athol

Update: Holy carp! It’s on the internet…

Sounds about right ?

I wonder if they tell you the R1 in the shop is one that was rejected with multiple Drive-train replacement or just an extra off the line.

Looks like 23 guys like me are still in the insignificant club. Have to wait for the rest of the yer to get the bird in the email.

Stay strong

So you'll only get a window update if your window has changed? Why not just tell everyone what their current window is to avoid any confusion?

Why do they have to word everything in the least concise and most obtuse manner possible?

It is the way

This statement is throwing me off, emphasis mine:

This week, we’ll be updating delivery window estimates for some preorder holders. This first round will prioritize two groups of customers:

I can't tell if that means some of us who ordered later, but still before March 1 will even get updates. I just want a target

That's the fun part....not knowing

Stay strong

Working on it

This email, for me, triple confirms the delivery windows they sent us back in Dec '21 are meaningless. I think there was/is consensus on this fact here in the forum.

This email also tells me I might not get a new delivery window before the start of '23

"For all other preorder holders, we plan to share updated delivery window estimates on a rolling basis through the remainder of the year." ?
