We'll be there on the Saturday. It's kinda weird that my wife was getting excited just yesterday about visiting the service centre this coming weekend, just for fun. When I told her it wasn't actually open yet, her brows collided and she hissed, "Godammit, Rivian!" I haven't told her about the...

Was originally told our Max Pack R1T would be 2H 2023. Now they just say, 2024. I guess this gives Rivian time to fix the tonneau cover and gear shuttle they took away from our configuration, along with working out the other first model year kinks. And it might give the Bank of Canada time to...

Stick with the light wood and wait. I got to pick what goes on the outside. Wifey got to pick what goes on the inside. Go ahead, RJ. You try and change her mind.

Any colour but the red! People are getting way too upbeat on that one. Remember the disdain for orangey red canyon? Yes, let's go back to that. Horrible, ugly red. :stop:? Pick the blue. I'm sure you won't see many other Rivians out there with blue paint. :angel: The contrast with the light...

I don't see any Sloan on that list. ? Stopped along the No.7 Highway west of Deroche, the sirens to open Money City Maniacs swell from the Canyon Red R1T's interior. A teeth-clenching harbinger of the launch set to come with the song's first emphatic drum strike. ? The only thing stopping...

Good grief. Just blast them with the horn. ???:surprised: It's what we do with the firetruck.

Buying stocks is easy. Selling stocks is hard. Being patient during volatility is an almost impossible b_tch. I had cautioned about buying Rivian stock in the lead-up to the IPO because of valuation concerns. I stayed clear of it. Ironically, I'm getting my arse handed to me from owning stocks...

My wife and I were at the Bellevue location a few weeks before Christmas. We got to check out an El Cap R1T while we were there. Pushing buttons, kicking tires, asking a ton of questions. The guy we dealt with, Trey, was super-cool. Cranking the stereo while the air suspension lifted us up and...

Vancouver R1T Max Pack Ordered August 2021 Estimated delivery is second half of 2023. ? I guess this gives the competition time to woo me.

I don't think you can get a plate for a vehicle that isn't certified/legal to drive in the country. Maybe Rivian is ahead of schedule here. ? There is a thread that already started this guessing game here.

Has anyone dared to ask the questions about off-road accessories yet? I've tried searching the forum, but I might not be using the right keywords. When it comes to adding light bars, or even a winch, how different is it on a Rivian vs. a legacy truck brand like Dodge or Ford? Or is it not...

Leading up to an IPO, there are umpteen influential entities (underwriters, private investors, etc) and people with long, impressive-sounding titles drowning company executives and entire departments with asks and wants for financial statements, marketing material, legal documents, forward...

Max Pack or nothing. From sea-level to the ski hill, I drive long distance routes multiple times a week. I'm on mountain roads in all weather conditions, all year long. And when I get a call-out, there's no time to charge the battery. And my wine-loving wifey and sister-in-law love heading to...

Rebates... shya. :swear: Where I'm at, the BC government offers a $3,000.00 rebate and the Canadian government another $5,000.00. Only, MSRP is maxed at $55,000.00 and $45,000.00 respectively. So, nuts to that. Instead, we'll be looking at a tax hit (GST + PST) of around $14,800.00. Something...

...and it will be forEVER:whatsgoingon: ? Now, let’s talk about "You spin me round (like a record)", by Dead or Alive. Blighting my inner musings since 1985. :computerrage:
