  1. Why such a "Simple Stick Man" front-end appearance?

    As fast as this truck will be, the rear view of the truck might be the only view anyone gets! :handsinair: :CWL:

  2. Anyone get your Rivian preorder gift / swag?

    The letter and print are a nice gesture of gratitude, but I would prefer they save as much cash as they can and focus on getting the cars to us on-time and on-quality. A nice surprise would have been the option to include a factory tour at delivery or a simple personalized metal plaque bolted...

  3. LIVE from Rivian's NY Auto Show Preview Event! (Q&A and R1T / R1S Hands-On)

    Nice pics, Krell.

  4. Work Begins On Major Office Remodel at Rivian Normal Plant

    I was thinking the same thing. Maybe they need to put a building-colored blocker plate above the V to keep the snow out of there. You don't want to make your brand look bad like that.

  5. Plastic body panels?

    Cool.

  6. Why such a "Simple Stick Man" front-end appearance?

    Thank you for reminding me that it was Atlis that is incorporating the front gate feature. I could not remember which company did that, but I knew it wasn't Rivian. A must-have feature, assuming it would pass all necessary testing.

  7. Plastic body panels?

    Anyone know what the main body panels are made from (fenders, doors, hood, etc.)? I'm guessing steel, but some of them have the look of plastic. Maybe aluminum?

  8. R1S Top Design

    Both short roof and tall roof designs look very cool to me. Like someone said, the tall roof is very Rover-like. That's not a bad thing to me. Maybe the taller roof model will be a new model for 2024? The new R2S? :fist bump:

  9. Why such a "Simple Stick Man" front-end appearance?

    I love the front end design. It definitely speaks Land Rover and Jeep. The stadium lights are a take from Jeep's 7 slot grille and the overall boxy face reminds me of the older Land Rover Discovery. Brilliant.

  10. which will ship first?

    I'm voting that RJ is a pragmatic guy and would not disclose anything in public that he did not have data to back up his words. If he says late 2020 for the first Rivians, I tend to believe him right now given the work he's done over the last 9 years. That said, manufacturing a car is a hard...

  11. "Fake" artificial engine and interior sounds

    Don't forget Speed Buggy mode...appropriate due to 0 to 60 mph in 3 seconds.

  12. Rivian has four new models in development!

    Yeah, yeah! :fingerscrossed:

  13. Cool Rivian facts & history

    Rivian is a superior name indeed to Mainstream Motors. :clap:

  14. R1S Specs vs R1T Specs

    Nice chart. I didnt realize the truck was over 400 mm longer than the SUV. That's a lot.

  15. Rivian Servicing & Repairs?

    Oh man. What a terrible experience. Let's hope Rivian is taking notes on this and will provide a world class service experience for its customers.
