The configurator is indeed pretty bad with colors. At least some we’ve seen videos of and it’s hard to go wrong with white, black, sliver etc. It’s the yellow, blue, red, limestone that are so hard to judge right now. I was liking the yellow for awhile but then heard someone call it Chic-fil-a...
I don’t know if I could do light on light (e.g. white with ocean or silver with ocean) But I like dark on dark (e.g. black with black or el Cap with black) configs.
Also, I kind of like how the light bar blends in on the Glacier White but also like the contrast with the light bar on the...
I thought I’d start a thread for those of who can’t make up our minds. I’ve changed my exterior and interior options 5 times now and thinking about a 6th ?.
1. LA silver - Black Mountain
2. el Cap - Ocean Coast
3. Rivian Blue - Ocean Coast
4. Compass Yellow - Ocean Coast
5. Midnight - Ocean...
The contactless delivery would make sense in that scenario but if you do the walkthrough it’s going to have to be someone with knowledge of the vehicle, not just a driver. We’ll see what happens, I’m still trusting Rivian will make it a good experience for all.
Yep, I agreed 100%. Seems ever since Ford announced the V2H, a lot of post are popping up asking Rivian to add this feature. I don’t doubt it is useful for some, depending on where you live but it’s not something I would likely ever use myself. Seems to me that if the V2H is that important to...
You don’t have to take delivery. If you don’t sign the final papers and take delivery you cannot legally be charged taxes or any loan payments. If you find that you don’t like how it drives in the first week, it may be more of a hassle but it can be returned for a full refund, it actually...
That is a strange (and yes, gross) combination. Doesn’t match anything available in the configurator that I see. Are they trying different combos or was it “just throw whatever we have in there to get it on the road for testing” ?
At this point I’m torn between wanting new information from Rivian or continued silence. Another week without anything and this forum is going to completely lose its mind. It’s a win win ?
My call with the Rivian guide should be 5 min or less:
Guide: Hi this is [insert name] from Rivian. We have a Launch Edition in your area that matches your Adventure configuration. The person that originally ordered was unable to take delivery, would you be interested in purchasing this...
Was there anything on the F150’s off road capability or clearance numbers? I like the F150 and Ford getting into the EV game with the F150 (and the MachE) but I’m not sure the target customer is the same, other than “electric truck” Rivian is targeting adventure, camping, off roading etc. Ford...
On the fence still. Might put a deposit in just in case something happens with Rivian. I really like the R1T gear tunnel, air compressor, gear lock, RAN etc. Rarely lose power at my house so that Ford option doesn’t matter much to me. Rivian fits more what I want but a good option by Ford, hope...
I’d consider changing colors if it meant a sooner delivery but since I don’t have an LE, I don’t know that it would matter much. There are a few colors I would pass on but for the most part I’d be open to changing. Hopefully if there was ever a color that was delaying things more than others, a...
There was an article or two recently about Tesla using a pre-fab method for new superchargers. Chargers show up on a semi attached to a large concrete block, pre-wired and dropped into place. Finished up and ready for use in a few days. If Rivian uses a similar method, I think they can get a few...
I’m sure there will be an event in Colorado. It looks like (to me) this is just where the job position will be based out of and then each will probably have their regions to travel to for the various events. I’m looking forward to seeing one in person for the first time here In Colorado.
Sounds like waiting for the max pack (400+) and the removable roof option Rivian is promising might be the best option/compromise. Unless the added 15k (guessing removable roof will be 2-5k) and having to wait for another year or more is a deal-breaker, then I’d actually say get the Bronco. In a...
