Max pack R1T deliveries were to be among the first (according to Rivian's early pre-order confirmation emails). Now that we max packers are at the very end of the line, here's a summary of undesirable changes forced on us over the years we've been waiting...
Warranty is shorter (vs quad)...
At this point, I'm just fed up. I take any information from Rivian about max packs with a huge dose of skepticism.

I changed to non-performance dual max before the April cutoff and am sitting at Aug/Sept 2023 for delivery.

But you’ll be a dual motor guinea pig for us!
