My Rivian excitement had been waning for months, but watching so many in action got me excited again. My new issue is the color choice - I’d do yellow in a heartbeat if the family would let me, but that was summarily shot down (looked amazing in the Edmunds RiviON review). White looks great...

I think we need to agree to disagree...as you'd be waiting a long time for that fix according to the post i linked to above. Enjoy your R1T and I'll enjoy my Lightning while waiting for my R1S. FWIW I just asked owners at the Lightning forum about build quality - we'll see what they have to say.

Either way I wish Rivian the best. Intend to take delivery whenever it arrives, and I'm sure they'll make improvements to their mfg over time. https://www.rivianforums.com/forum/posts/160883/

Found it - which would you prefer? This or that?

Can someone please find me that picture of the dented roofs being delivered? Can’t find it but saw it’s a thing. I’ll take a software fix for proper PSI of a tire over physical defects any day of the week and twice on Sunday.

FWIW I'm an April '19 reservation for what became the R1S Failure to Launch Edition. Live about 5 miles from Irvine HQ & 10 miles from the Costa Mesa Service Center. I'm also 1H 2023. Originally started as a GW/OC, but switched to FG (due to an ask from my kids) and then BM (trying to get it...

You own one and I don't so I can't speak from experience, but based on the overall "quality" of the builds I've seen on the various forums I'd say that's debatable. I haven't seen any issues pop up on the Lightning forums.

Just got the same email with the same timeline of first half of 2023. I'm an April 2019 preorder, and I live within 5 miles of their Irvine HQ and about 10 miles from their Costa Mesa service center. Not knowing where I was on the list of R1S's vs. R1T's, I'm somewhat surprised & disappointed...

I’d like to know if my Lightning that was reserved on 5/19/21 and is in the process of being built (week of 5/30/22) will arrive before I even get a revised ETA on my April ‘19 LE R1S reservation.

I agree with you to a certain degree, but NB/Newport Coast/CDM (as compared to Laguna/Dana Point/San Clemente) tend to have an attitude that exceeds many other affluent areas, but perhaps that’s just my experience.

If anything I’d guess it’s the arrogance/attitude/pretentiousness that goes along with the coastal lifestyle. While OC has moved from Red to Purple, IMO many more progressive-minded folks have general disdain for coastal and south OC.

My $.02 Streets are wide, spaces are clean, crime is low, homelessness is minuscule and the water is beautiful. Definitely a terrible place to spend time if you truly prefer a more “edgy” environment like Venice. It doesn’t offer the benefits you can get in LA (crowded, no parking...

I lusted over those but couldn’t justify getting rid of my 01.5 A4 at the time. Eventually got a 2015 V60 R Design and it was a hoot. Currently have an XC90 and P*2, so you could say I’m a Volvo fan.

+2 Will be interesting when the R1S and Lightning are both finally here (Lightning had a build week of 5/30 so should be here somewhat s00n). I’m so excited for each of them for different reasons, but honesty just love driving our P*2 (though I’d be happy with a tad more space).

It is Laguna after all. Capitol of nimbyism and making any build or remodel a nearly insurmountable ordeal.

Probably neither here nor there for you if it was the length of the physical seat, but this (small female) reviewer drove the Lightning and iirc loved the driving position. She subsequently drove the Pro and noted it was notably worse given less seat & pedal adjustment options. This is...

Looks to me like you started in OC/LA and not SF. I went to Vegas last weekend in my Polestar and hit the Hesperia Walmart on my way out and the Barstow one on way home. Barstow’s front couple chargers all had issues, as did a few of the 5 or 6 toward the back of the parking lot, but a few were...

April ‘19 reservation, LE, originally May/June window. About 5 miles from OC HQ and about 10 miles from service center. Crickets on new date.

It’s good to have options. I flipped from OC to black in my R1S, but went back to OC since that’s what I actually want, and it presumably gives me more time with the Lightning before the R1S arrives. Depending on how things go with the Lightning and R1S, one option may be to sell the P*2 and...

My build week was this week and blend date was today, but no update on the order page or modules popping yet. Last weeks builds’ modules started popping in the last couple days, so hoping I see signs of life by end of next week.
