It will be interesting if they let the price go high (ala Tesla who hasn't split again recently) or if they keep the price in a certain range by splitting the stock (ala Apple). I.e. Apple split 4 for 1 in 2020 which brought the individual share price back down into the 100s (not sure exact...

Offering price was 78, that’s what DSP and some institutional traders got. Those institutions not in the DSP/offering then went in and balanced to get the opening price which was 107. That’s what non-institutional “normal” traders got for the first ticker price.

Yep, totally understand the frustration... Until the ramp up gets a bit further the CS reps (and even the engineers, etc.) just don't know enough to have meaningful contacts. I know I've never actually been interested enough in a new vehicle to have cared about this phase of production so...

I went up to the Preview event in Normal (didn't drive) at the end of September, that night I pre-ordered.

From the 3rd Amendment of the S1 here is how it is setup: The current annual installed capacity for the R1 platform and RCV platform is approximately 65,000 and 85,000 vehicles, respectively. We produced 104 R1T vehicles during the last week of October 2021, representing approximately 8% of...

The plant is split in half. Half for the vans, half for the R1T/R1S.

The Amazon van capacity and the R1T/S line are completely separate (as per the S1). They won't materially affect each other. Edit: RJ's interview from the IPO launch clearly states at approximately the 2:10 minute mark that Bloomberg's statement that Amazon was being prioritized is a...

The 78 is a discount (offering price), the actual first price at the bell (opening price) almost definitely won't be 78.

The circus of the IPO pricing is how it always is, we are just privy to the process because of the DSP.

Kurt, I don’t know if you’ve already added the effect of short-term capital gains into your plan, so just adding this clarification for those who are newer to investing. So, for anyone planning this don’t forget to factor in short-term capital gains taxes! It’s based on your tax bracket...

The R1S and R1T share the 65,000 line. The Vans are on the other line.

Go to a dealer and sit in a Honda Ridgeline, the front/back is really close to the same size regarding space for knees. There is more headroom in the R1T although the Ridgeline does pretty good with the the ceiling pushed upward where your head would be in the backseat.

Good catch! ok, finance away, lol. It's only money, right.

Best news for those wanting to keep the overall loan lower is all of the adventure gear like the cargo crossbars, bike mounts, wall charger, tent, gear tunnel shuttle, etc. are listed. Not all are in stock, but good to know we don't have to immediately order that with the truck and get stuck...

On the 9th (tomorrow) at 6 pm EST you will be able to finalize the amount of shares you want to purchase since the price will be finalized. You have until 11:59 pm EST to finalize that amount. It is a little bit hazy about how quickly you have to fund the account fully before Morgan Stanley...

Good news in about 40 days after tomorrow the quiet period will be over for the IPO and investors will have a much stronger pull than even us poor customers. Should start seeing a lot more communication that will at least satisfy the investors (i.e. quarterly build rates).

You have to login tomorrow Nov 9th around 6 EST (and before 11:59 EST) to confirm how many shares you actually want to purchase. You should be able to login today to the Directed Morgan Stanley url you originally used and it will tell you the coming next step.

Not disagreeing since your numbers might end up being 100% accurate, but I think its important to realize that they aren't trying to improve by X% per week. It's a subtle difference, but it's why there is hope that they will reach their annual production rate faster (and why ramp ups are...

That isn’t what the S1 said. The 14 per day was an average that “we” (readers of S1) calculated after the second amendment was released. The third amendment said 20 per day (104 for the week) in the last week of October which was for the end part of the timeframe of the 14 avg that we had...

Fair enough, but Rivian is already doing better than the Model S/X in 2011/2012. The numbers Tesla reported were 50 model S in the first 6 weeks after the first vehicle rolled off the line. Rivian’s IPO actually helps us know that Rivian has already produced 3 times that number of trucks in its...
