I saw an R1T today in the parking lot of a local city park. I didn’t really want to pore over someone’s new car but it looked good. Real California plates too, not mfg or dlr or paper.
Plate on the rear only. I saw it drive in under its own power

Every time I come into this thread I update my preorder to Rivian Blue with OR tires and Ocean Coast interior. Then, a few days later, I go into the Forest Green thread and update my preorder to the warthog build (FG, FE, Black OR rims/tires.) Every now and then I entertain the storm trooper, followed by Darth Vader (current prof pic.) I always end up between RB and FG though.
The pendulum will continue to swing until I can get eyes on in person and make a real decision. Until then, this is a fun game. Off to my preorder to update it to Rivian Blue.

I spied the delivery guys staging about 10 minutes before our appointment just around the corner. They were giving the glass one last buff making sure everything was shiny.
First time seeing Rivian Blue up close and in person. It's not exactly what we expected from any photos but quite stunning. And sun, shadows, overcast are all a little different and amazing.
We had a little bit of paperwork to do. Wet signatures required for title application, power of attorney, and the trade-in title. They said they had to remove the plate from our trade-in, which seemed odd until I realized it's an IL transaction not a WA one.
We set up our apps and driver profiles. Found two minor bugs during the process. The first is some placeholder text on the range projection interface (it's using what appears to be placeholder text, not the actual installed wheel type). The second was a little more irksome. Our wifi password has an apostrophe -- a normal, non-directional apostrophe. But the pop-up keyboard only offers an opening quote shaped apostrophe. So it's not currently connected to wifi until I create it its own SSID as a temporary workaround. So there's that... In all fairness, these are minor things and the guys who were here took detailed notes and photos to report back and get it fixed.
Let's see... set up was pretty painless. Played with the screen a bit. The charging pad is fussy, especially with the camera bump on my iPhone. But without CarPlay, I'm pretty sure we'll be looking for some kind of vent/window/dash mount for the driver's phone anyways. Didn't play with USB connection of any phones and didn't really mess with music yet. Bluetooth implementation had contacts, music controls, etc. -- all the features you'd expect from Bluetooth packaged in a well-made UI. We did not enable Alexa.
We took it for a quick spin. The truck floats over the potholes in all purpose mode. Our test drive was in the rain, so today we got to actually gun it getting onto the highway. The giggle is involuntary. And apparently it was holding back 20% of the torque because we weren't in sport mode.
We took some delivery pictures and then the guys drove off in the FJ (only one of the two could drive stick -- good thing he was there
).
We'll figure out somewhere fun to take it this weekend.
