Actually I did run to the configurator and change to the 21" wheels when I read that! Now I've given it more thought and will likely change back to the 20" ATs. Here's why...
As I understand it, the reason the ATs reduce your efficiency is the added rolling resistance (and possibly a bit of...
I am right there with you in MidCoast Maine, but I would be willing to travel to NY for this. I've got an LE pre-order and want some hands on to firm up my decision.
Actually that makes a lot of sense. I suspect you are on to something. That would also explain why subsequent initial guide contacts have all but stopped.
On May 20th (2021) the Chelsea Record ran a story on a Rivian property deal at 25 Griffin Way Chelsea, MA 02150 presumably for a Showroom/Service Center. Has anyone that is in or near Boston dropped by to see if anything is going on there. I believe it is very near Logan Airport?
I would love...
I will definitely let you (and the world) know when my Guide contacts me and I have a firm idea of a delivery date. I imagine anyone who regularly looks at this forum will post. As a matter of fact, it is May 1st, this is the month some lucky individuals will hear from their Guide. I think...
Ladiver, I am already there and I think adding the Rivian will be revolutionary!
I have a 9.6 kW solar array on the roof, and two Tesla Powerwalls for energy arbitrage. The Powerwalls are also set up to power a critical load circuit in my house in the event of a power outage.
Living in...
Interesting...
May I ask for clarification?
Again, see previous note about me being a bit naïve when it comes to investing, but I do not see how this would be an unregistered investment. Wouldn't the IPO be "registered"? The escrow is not really an investment, just a holding pattern waiting...
I like DuckTruck's idea... a lot......
In fact I think I would be inclined to put a bit more into "anticipatory escrow" holding than I might otherwise invest. I think there is some weird psychological thing going on in my head where I would readily commit if I was guaranteed to get in with IPO...
We may get to meet at a "road show" test drive event. I expect I'll have to come down to the Boston area for that. I am thinking they will likely "cover" most of New England with an event there.
Amen to that brother! I am using my R1T for more utility than sport, so I would happily sacrifice a little extra passenger comfort for a more robust cargo option.
Somebody has to start some conversation in the New England locale!!!
I did the configurator last week and am waiting for a Launch Green LE R1T with the black interior? Pre-ordered on 25 April 2019. Who else is out there?
Awesome idea. I do believe Rivian could save some money by not dealing with the delivery aspect (and pass that on to the owner.) Volvo has been doing this for years in Europe for US military buyers. They flew us from Germany to Gottenberg, Sweden, picked us up at the airport, put us up a...
