When I pre-ordered my R1S in 22’ yellow badging was available for the Dual-Motor. In fact the Quad did not exist. Should I be upset now that my Dual-Motor config that I was asked to confirm does not come with yellow badging?

I think you might be confused. The quad motor was offered first and had the yellow caipers/badging. Rivian was very upfront about what would differentiate the two visually when it announced dual motor details several months ago.

That's a single motor sir. Those aren't allowed on this forum.
My apologies. It was only meant to represent the speed with which I was leaving this thread.

Over/under until the dual-motor guys start swapping badges like the Non-M BMW owners putting M3 badges all over their 3 series??

Maybe we can sell them some yellow 'turbo' badges, too!

Initially someone pointed out that the configurator (or maybe it was the R1 shop) didn't show the lack of yellow badging and calipers, so perhaps that's what you remember?
