R1S LA Silver new delivery estimates

[Bradyb23]

Was 1H’23 now “Jan-Dec ‘24”.

Your window kills me, and I share your pain. I am not configured for LAS, but when I changed from Limestone to Midnight, my Adventure Package R1S with 20" All-Terrain Dark wheels (Nov 21) went from Aug-Dec 23 to Jan-Dec 24. The only delivery estimate that's worse than "sometime in 2024" is "Processing estimate". : )

Here are some more

Gorgeous! Did your vehicle come with the frunk power outlet? I’m hearing it’s back…

Got pulled-in on the last update to July-Sept ‘23. We’ll see if that holds…

Just got ours, unfortunately, no 12v in frunk Quite disappointed about that.

Well, after patiently waiting 1500+ days, glad to say our first day has been very positive so far. A few showers going on here so I couldn't let her rip just yet. I have tempered my expectation level after seeing all the very informative posts on this forum. I have even contemplated not moving forward but the 7 day trial just made it easier for me to give it a shot.

What's wrong:
-Tailgate color doesn't quite blend wirh side body panels. It's quite obvious in the sun and looks like a mismatched paint job.
-Slight alignment issue of one rear passenger door by about 1/8", will see how well it hold up
-Very squeaky inside door handle, but no big deal, not squeaking during drive yet
-strip of paint about 1ft x3inch wide on driver door is a little thin. Maybe the paint job was rushed.

Things I don't like (mentioned in other posts but just noting it here in case it makes a difference to future design considerations)
- no self parking assist.
- no 12v in frunk. Why? I was so hoping charge my power bank and electronics in the frunk.
- seems no option to select much lower regen mode, or turn off hold in all purpose drive mode
-lack if adjustable headrests or option to reduce it's thickness
-limited recline angle of second row seats
-its only 45 deg now but upper half of cabin was already very hot. Can't imagine what it'll be like in hot summers,
-lack of touch to lock/unlock door handles. The proximity thing doesn't work consistently. And the carbiner fob is too big.

Even so, I'm pleased to say that if no major issues show up over next few days, she's a keeper. Yes , there are a few cosmetic issues, but I m willing to let them slide due to the Rivian ramping up (I've seen much worse from Chrysler). The mechanics, drive, and electrical aspects are more important to me.

Oh, the motor whine is quite noticeable but I quickly went from being concerned to liking it...Almost sounds like a small jet engine and the kids like it ?

Now I just need to manage the stress and anxiety of being a ding magnet in parking lots.

Let’s get some pics of that rig! Bummer on the issues. First I’ve heard mismatches happening. I thought 12v in the frunk was back (there’s a thread somewhere to that affect). Bummer yours didn’t come with it.

Enjoy nonetheless!

EDIT: for typos.

With pic this time, sorry was too busy spending as much time as we could driving all over the place Please let me know what you think about the tailgate.. It's can quite obvious depending on sky condition, and where I'm parked.

Today I also had not so good experience with phone failing to open door, had to reboot my phone. The key card saved me.

Holy cow. That paint job is insane! I don’t know much about paint but they better fix it for you.

Ugh, I should have mentioned it at pickup day, but there was so much going on that day, I thought it was just due the way it was parked against the building. Have already pinged my guide about it.

Interesting… I wasn’t expecting this, but I just got access to the R1S Shop. I can also see LE models (adventure pkg configured). Anyone else?

Interesting. IIRC, you were last moved up to Q3 window. I hope you are able to find one you like from the shop.

I believe we ordered around the same time, and I haven't gotten an invite

Good memory. You’re correct on my new estimated delivery date. Unfortunately, there were only 3 available in my region when I logged in and I only would’ve considered 1 of them seriously (LG/BM, UBS, 20” ATs), but it was taken within a few minutes. The hunt continues…

 

[larrydallas]

For what it’s worth, you guys aren’t missing much (unless there are much more available in your regions)…

This is literally the only one in my shop at the moment.
