I doubt I can find a definitive answer to this but- I currently have a delivery date of Dec 22/Jan 23 with an Adventure, El Cap Granite, Ocean Coast config. I had a first mile drive today and saw Limestone up close and I want to switch with maybe Black Mt interior.. Has anyone had experience switching colors and had an impact on the delivery date? I'd hate to add 6 more months on by changing colors.

Only Rivian would know for sure but I’d wager switching from Ocean Coast could improve your timing. Adventure/21’ wheels/El Cap is a configuration probably being delivered by the truckload to your region. I jump back and forth on dumping the ATs but I’m only a few months out from my window so may as well stick with it at least until my window.

I had a 2023 date. Switched to black interior with 21” wheels and I get my truck this week. Once you get guide contact you can get your truck as quick as 1-3 weeks. It can be very fast. I am super excited.

Interesting. Were you able to get an estimate on delivery date before you changed? The rep I chatted with said there was no way to tell until I changed the configuration. I don't have a guide assigned yet.

I strongly doubt that switching to Black Mountain would hurt your delivery window,

My original post was clunky- also thinking of switching to Limestone from El Cap G. I'm guessing that shouldn't hurt things much either?

Just to add a counter data point, it can also be slow as molasses. I’ve had a guide two months and he has no information as to why I don’t have my truck (El Cap, 21”, BM)

According to my guide both of these colors are very popular and likely have the same delivery timelines attached to them.

That's what I was hoping. Thanks!
