lol, I might have to meet them at the Walmart parking lot during mud season

Had a Model 3. If they're using NFC (which I assume that's why they're going with a card format), you're fine taping it back there, as it will likely be far from the NFC sensor for unlocking the doors.

Maine and Mass. do the same. I'll be trading in my X to offset the R1S purchase price.

Kinda hoping for a 20" Dark Road setup to maximize range for the Max pack

WINCH READY!!!!! I'm not going to cruise Western Maine plowing people's driveways, but I'll happily plow my 1/2 mile camp road.

This particular topic aside....they seem to be on a steady cadence of Thursday news drops, so maybe we're building towards something in the coming weeks....

that sounds way more laidback than Gator Freighter or Tin Can Sailor (my 2 sea tours). Enjoy.

Thanks for your service. I did 12 in the Navy as well, but the deployment checklist was a little different...Dodge Neons and Chevy Cavaliers didn't need to be plugged in while I was gone. LOL

A warranty of 8 years and 175,000 miles is a pretty confident bet on battery and powertrain.

All of the reasons are important factors, but I sincerely hope ramp-up capabilities played a heavy hand.

Sounds like they did their homework and chose a supplier whose cells can handle some "adventuring"... https://electrek.co/2021/04/12/electric-pickup-truck-powered-samsung-sdi-battery-cells/

That's about what I'm expecting. In a long-term, strategic view, I'm hoping the rumored IPO gives them the influx of capital they need to build out production capacity.

I'm honestly hoping for a little sooner than that, maybe place the order this time next year, for a Summer 2022 delivery? Either way, it's not a dire situation. My X only has 16K miles at the moment.

I have been lurking for a while, and then decided today to put in my pre-order. I'll defer when my number is called the first time, though, because I want the Max Pack.

I mean, it sounds pretty similar to Tesla. I suppose the difference will be in the execution of this plan.

I'm in a unique spot where, depending on the actual delivery date whenever I get around to ordering an R1S with the Max Pack, my trade-in will cover a large portion of my Rivian sticker price, BUT, how will all that be handled? I'm guessing someone like carmax will physically take the trade-in...

Electrek is a clown show right now. Lol

My 2020 has it. I got lucky on an end of quarter push.

pretty sure that level 2 Chargers are intended to be an answer to Tesla's destination charging Network. If you read the description, it is designed for you to charge while shopping or eating, Etc. There's nothing wrong with having some of these sprinkled in

I assume it will be like the official Tesla map, and they'll put pins in areas they EXPECT to build, and even then, the pin will be on the geographic center of that town, and not necessarily the exact planned location. Still, this is aggressive. I love it. By the way people......BUY when the...
