Upcoming "First Mile" Mobile Test Drive Cities Announced - Chicago, Dallas, Denver, LA, Seattle, San Francisco

Imagine going to one of these events as a 2021 pre-orderer, being amazed by the car, then finding out on an internet forum IPO post that you maybe won't get one for 2(+) years. Puts a real damper on things.

Or you could be a 2018/2019 holder and keep getting delayed. All told you’ll receive yours 3 years or more after preordering

And depending on the location you may get it AFTER that 2021 pre-order holder!

Given I'm in Canada and Rivian doesn't exist here besides a rented office for software people, that seems more than likely.

Looks like they are starting First Mile in Seattle. I am scheduled for this Sat!

OR ask for a NYC drive when you want to make the 4 hour trip to see the vehicle but I guess you need to be a NYC resident as they didn't let me make any appointments.

Thanks for the heads up, just snagged one on Sunday before our invite email even arrived!

(Still haven't received email from Rivian about it, fwiw)

It's gone from instagram as well.

They seriously cannot get their comms plans, strategy, execution together. Its pretty silly at this point. WTF.

My account still doesn't show it either. I don't have a launch edition reservation though.

Wonder if there’s an update on location and date for the LA First Mile event. Can R1S holders also attend?

 

[Babbuino]

Yeah, kind of surprising the have nothing planned for the SouthEast. You know, like some of the fastest growing cities in the US.

I thought FL held a special place on their hearts....

Found it when logging in to the Rivian website. The events item in the left nab was lit up. We have a 2018 pre-order for a Launch Edition.

Cool. Based on other folks feedback, it looks like its going to LE preorder holders, not just early preorder holders.

Albany?

Nobody goes to Albany on purpose.
