  1. Picked up our R2 this morning (June 29). So far so good. VIN 1588.

    Give it time. My R1S has a number of rattles.
  2. Update on timing now in account

    I understand that reasoning but it's kind of messed up to put someone who reserved on day one behind people who reserved more recently -- what is the point of the reservation process if it doesn't give someone priority?
  3. Update on timing now in account

    Ordered within the first hour, have an R1S and live within 10 miles of a service center.
  4. R2 Charging Light bars

    But on the Rivian you'd only be able to do that for the first 5-10 minutes after you plug in because, after that, they turn off.
  5. R2 Charging Light bars

    I have the charging light bar on my Gen 2 R1S. It's a novelty that wears off immediately. It only shows for a few minutes and then turns off. You aren't missing anything
  6. Got the R2 order invite, but still on lease with the R1

    Understood but if there's negative equity I'll have the option to make all payments
  7. Finished R2 demo test drive? Share your review / impressions

    Needing sound is the same as people who need to feel a book in their hands and won't use an e-reader. It's a lot of inconvenience for a mediocre experience.
  8. All sound is gone from my R1S GEN 2

    I'd give anything to get rid of the rattle sound that comes from my front passenger seat.
  9. Esker Silver R2 finally marketed by Rivian! Hi-res official images (Updated With More)

    I feel like black is the least-seen R1 color (at least around where I live). I've only ever seen one or two of them and it is, by far, my least favorite color on R1. As far as silver goes, it looks great. I remember being told in the 80s to avoid getting silver though as it was very hard to...
  10. Aftermarket R2 Floor Mats

    Those look identical to the Rivian ones I have in my R1S. I got them "free" with referral money. They're ok. If it was my own money I'd have been less happy. They're more or less just rubber mats and the sides don't come up very high. They're easy to clean and obviously they fit very well...
  11. Got the R2 order invite, but still on lease with the R1

    Hypothetically, if I was in a situation where the difference between the trade-in offer and residual was more than my remaining payments, couldn't I make a lump sum equal to the remaining payments and walk away?
  12. My "adventure truck" was destroyed by suncreen...

    Funny you mention that. My initial thought was that it looks like plastic that's come in contact with deet
  13. Would you go with 20" wheels or 21" wheels on Launch Edition R2?

    I had the same reaction. Any doubt I had over whether to get the 20" wheels was erased. The 21" look comically large and it makes the brakes look tiny. No thank you.
  14. Cancelling my Pre-order, thoughts inside from test drive

    I'm not saying OP is a troll but they posted the exact same thing - word for word, bullet point for bullet point - in a Rivian group to which I belong on Facebook. Rather than trying to be informative, I think they're just trying to get a rise out of people. Wait... I guess I AM saying they're...
  15. Who HASN'T been invited to order with an early reservation?

    Day 1 reservation (within hour of announcement), R1S owner, live within 10 miles from service center. Still waiting.
