  1. R1T Trade in Value vs R2 Performance Price

    Rivian dropped their trade in for my 2022 Bronco Raptor with 17k miles roughly 5k in the last two months. Significantly lower than anyone else. Total nonstarter.
  2. Back in an R1T after a few years away...

    We sold our 2022 R1T in 2023. I’ve kept watching them since, and even tried to get my wife into an R1S a few times, but stuck with our Bronco Raptor and Ioniq 5N. Now I’m wondering if I’ll do tri R1T or R2 whenever they open up the builds next month. I am definitely leaning R1T. Have had a...
  3. NY - Long Island - Is this totaled or Not?

    And folks wonder why R1’s are so expensive to repair. I really hope the R2 is a significantly more modular and as such, repairable car.
  4. Ever seen a ghost car? One with no history until ~40K?

    Corporate or demo vehicle that was never titled.
  5. Live from Rivian Roadshow - R2 in Borealis & First Look at Sleeping Mattress w/ Fold Down Rear Seats + V2L Adapter

    Did you get to sit in the seats? How do they feel compared to R1, and others?
  6. Anyone who ordered receive their Borealis R1T or R1S yet? - - -

    Absolute fire. Best Rivian color in my humble opinion. Wow.
  7. R2 Sales of 70,000 in 2026'? What the Magic Number?

    I think the present SC setup will fall over fast with 50k deliveries this year of a new vehicle. They really need to nail the quality at a level they never have. Buyers of a $50k “downmarket” EV will not have the patience for Rivian’s low quality “we’ll fix it later / post delivery”...
  8. IONNA is holding meetups at Rechargeries tomorrow, February 7th (2026)

    Ionna chargers / stations rock. Fast, clean, and in my experience, have stuff around them. Oh, and cheaper than most. a few pics from my last road trip. I really like the data they share.
  9. New RIVIAN GREEN Signature Color Revealed! 🌲

    Honestly can we get some freakin brighter Autumnal colors please? Not everything needs to be green or gray shades. Just *something* to mix it up!
  10. Rival: 2026 BMW iX3 reviews are impressive... R2 has its work cut out

    We no longer have our R1T, but did take two road trips over this holiday break in our Ioniq 5N. This car has a 77kWh battery and gets a measly 230 miles per full charge, or this winter more like 180. That said, road tripping it was awesome. We had fast, reliable charging at Ionna and EA and...
  11. Gen 2 Dual max performance vs Tri Max range comparison.

    Can you share how many miles these drives are / what m/kWh you’re seeing?
  12. Motor Trend article on EV vs ICE cost of ownership

    or live in a state with expensive electricity. $38 comes pretty fast when you think about is 110 or so Kw. I definitely like data a little too much and I do track the cost of all of my vehicles, when I had my R1T it wasn’t that much less expensive than my bronco raptor which gets 15 miles per...
  13. Lucid Gravity On the Road - Test Vehicle

    I think it’s an attractive package, but then again, I like wagons and we own a minivan. Definitely gun shy about Lucid as a company though…
  14. Rivian buy back: what should my next vehicle be?

    Totally agree. As much as folks say the R1’s are amazing off road, it’s got nothing on this BRaptor. Of course, on road, yeah, that’s a different story. If you don’t have to go off road, or tow a lot, and live on top of an SC, Rivian’s can be amazing… tradeoffs though. Tradeoffs. One other...
