How come you get Aug-Sep delivery estimates? Did they think Kirkland is closer to Bellevue than Issaquah? ;)
I mean I have no problem waiting until December but trying to understand how Rivian is prioritizing ??‍♂️
Congrats on receiving your R1S!
But how come they skipped other pre-orders. Feb 2019 preorder, live in Issaquah, and still waiting for my R1S. Did you get underbody protection? That config apparently getting earlier priority.
Congrats!
I pre-ordered just few days later but I guess lot of people in front of me on west coast :(
Now, mandatory question for early R1S deliveries. Did you get off-road package?
Cybertruck - 11/22/2019 (It's just 100 bucks for reservation, why not)
R1S - 2/16/2019 (the day I first heard about Rivian. I really want this!!!)
F150 Lighting - 9/8/2021
I was about to put the reservation for Lightning on day 1 but then thought I don't need a truck. Then seeing enthusiasm of...
totaled vehicle doesn’t mean the value is zero, insurance still recoup some cost by selling it. I have been watching the series and looks like you can’t even extract the battery from a giga cast Tesla vehicle. This higher loss will be passed to the consumer as insurance premium. It’s probably...
iX is a nice car IMO. I am so used to with the HUD and Apple CarPlay that I am now thinking whether R1S would be good move. I need a 3rd row so no 2-row EV is an option for me.
The last one I got 4 years ago looks like now out of business. These are some Chinese white label items so brand name really doesn’t matter. This is the one I just got. Yet to try for camping but tried at home and feels pretty good.

I am big fan of 3"-4" self inflatable foam pads. It's almost as comfortable as memory foam mattress at home and still compress quite a bit. Pretty sure you can fit two double size pads in the gear tunnel. Also it provides a good insulator compared to just inflatable air pads.
Great video btw ??
That’s the only thing makes me drooling for F150 lightning. I get power outage several times a year and having a silent and cheap backup option would be super awesome! Rivian should make the 240v inverter as an add on at least.
They are probably trying to distribute the load among their service center. That's why NC and OH people seems like getting higher precedence than west coast locations where there are more people in the queue.
Mine moved from April-May. Already has a guide and signed PBA 1.5 months ago.
Your Launch Edition R1S estimated delivery window is October - December 2022
Honestly, this is the first time I came to know about iJustine and I watch tech reviews a lot. Just watched her another video on a dji drone and that looks decent and informative. I think I'd blame it to YouTube's suggestion!
Next year’s cost could be lower based on today’s supply chain constraints. Lithium and nickel price have skyrocketed recently and Rivian is already considering cheaper LFP batteries for future builds. Secondly, a bump in stock price would help them hiring easier and possibly raise more money by...
once they start volume production they will burn through the backlog very quickly.
alternatively, you can also check leaseswap and take over a lease. You can get a year or even less time remaining. One time a lease I was considering to take over bmw 3 series lease which has 9 months left and...
