R1T - Preordered, 2020 XC60 T6 Inscription, 1985 BMW M635CSI, 1970 BMW 2002
Just locked mine in. It's built but needs quality checks and transport from Normal to New England... Any idea how long that can take? How's this config for rarity?

Rarity? Well, 22s and the reinforced underbody shield on the same build cannot be too common.

That's a rather rare combo, my friend. I don't know your order date, but from the looks of things you just won the Rivian lottery!

What's so rare about the combo? The wheels and the interior?

Combo was shown in the above R1 Shop pictures. Have to assume they had at least one available for immediate shipment.

22" wheels and underbody shield seems like an unusual combo, imo.

The force is strong in this one.

To explain it a little more, 22"s are a street wheel/tire. The underbody protection is meant to protect from offroad conditions.

Thus the combo of a street tire with off road protection will be rare.

May not be as rare as people think.

Depends on if people went in and dropped that package when they split the tow hooks from it. I originally had that configured on my R1S because I wanted the tow hooks, I have since dropped the off-road and just added tow hooks.

If people not on these forums had originally configured it like that and have not been paying attention, there could be a lot of that combo configured.

It's mind bottling to me that people could have a reservation and not be paying attention to things. I can't stop logging into my stupid account and checking/changing my config and it's been like that since probably January.

it does seem mind boggling but there are people out there with so much disposable income they buy a Rivian on a whim and dont even know what they are getting. ive seen people post on social media they were surprised there was a built in camp speaker or that there was a pass-through in the R1T between the 2nd row and gear tunnel.

Seriously. And I have yet to touch one and know quite a bit already.

At least they are not asking where does the gas go.

Finally starting to get some variety in the Shop, so long as you like the FE interior. Three trucks with 22s, and 2 with RUS. Too bad I don't like FE and want 20s...
