+1 for PBA guide assignment today - OC Interior! There's definitely an OC Storm a-comin.
Guide name = "Beth Bertha".
Maybe we should start a spreadsheet of guide assignment and their names so we can start tracking the consistency of the info they're telling people.
Here's hoping OC is coming in...
I'm an "April-May".
Got on the chat with CS yesterday to ask if it would speed things up if I switched my config from Ocean to BM. The CS agent became very animated and said "absolutely DO NOT make any changes to your config as this causes delays! Do NOT touch your config at this point! Your...
I literally just drove by a Limestone Rivian an hour ago in Sandy (SLC) Utah. It's rainy here today and I was in love with the color. I have Black on my order (white interior) but, after seeing Limestone in person, I've been thinking I'd switch from Black. Then I found this thread and I think...
^2 for switching to BM if it's really a charcoal! I've read and read and read that the Ocean ain't coming in the near future. Here's hoping that the BM will look more charcoal with my black exterior.
Maybe there IS light at the end of the Jan2020 order tunnel. ;-)
..also, chalk another one up...
After originally reporting seeing these (4) Rivian's on transporter earlier this week, yesterday (3/10) my brother passed another transporter with (1) white and (3) Rivian Blue trucks heading along I-84 through Twin Falls, Idaho toward Oregon.
Things are happening.
Just wanted to report a "sighting" today! Heading west on I-80 going through Park City, UT toward California. Friends saw the truck later in the day heading south on I-15 toward Vegas / California (must've turned at the interchange in SLC to head south).
They're starting to roll-out folks...
Amazing!
I live in Salt Lake and was in Park City today (on I-80) and passed a truckload of Rivians heading west (toward california). But a friend who also lives in Salt Lake called me an hour later and sent me a photo of the same truck that was now on I-15 heading south toward Vegas (or on to...
Allow me to spread gossip (and as one of 'The Bobs' said on Office Space - "Believe me.. this IS just hypothetical")..
According to Spike Feresten (Spike's Car Radio Podcast), Rivian approached him at the Malibu Cars & Coffee a few weeks ago and offered him a Rivian (for purchase from what he...
No no- you're both correct. I WAS insinuating that ANY of the other editions would not be available (initially) with the power tonneau. The way the guide explained in the email, simply made it sound like this was the case -- ONLY the LE would come with it. But, after reading what you're saying...
Man I'm seriously a clueless rookie. Everything everyone says is news to me and I'm learning a ton here. That's is so crazy & interesting that Launch Edition wasn't reserved / made available as a perk to early pre-order-holders exclusively. Reminds me of the Gladiator launch debacle last year :)...
Well, based on what you're saying (pre-order Feb 2019) and from what the "Rivian Guide" said, you'd probably get the Max pack truck in Jan or Feb. (This is assuming there will be FAR fewer people reserving Max Packs = you would definitely be within the first 500.) She was telling me that with MY...
My curiosity (and hopefully I'm not completely alone on this) is how many of you out there went for the Max Pack when it came on-line. Curiosity reason part #1 is that I'm still trying to decide if I should switch to the Max vs keep my short range (lol) unit. Reason Part #2 is the obvious one of...
You guys nailed-it. I'm number 40,335.
Bum deal. Regardless of you saying the exact order doesn't matter, that's really saddening news because I think my Lightning will be here by the time I get the R1T. Lame LOL
Well, maybe Max Packs will only be $5K by then. :)
Shoot! That’s really bad news! I thought I was an early order holder. There goes all my dreams. I’ll be lucky to get my “launch edition” before next summer. LOL
Ironically, they warned me against getting the max pack because it would delay my order— if what you’re saying is correct, it won’t...
Here's a better question... how the HELL do you know your pre-order #? I've looked everywhere and cannot find anywhere where it says my number in line.
I ordered Jan 11, 2020.
-cheers :)
AJ - So helpful. Thanks a ton man. I've been busy all day but just read what you said and am super grateful. That's really helpful just to have concise info on what to do. No one really discusses it and I'm not sure there's any Rivian write-ups (at least that's been clearly given to the public)...
Thanks Smithery!
These quick and concise summaries are SO helpful. That makes it easier to understand.
I think I'm still questioning / wondering what I need if I've currently got a 240 / 14-50 in my garage for my Tesla (just looks like a 240w dryer outlet). What would I need to get an...
Thanks for explaining this. In light of this, is there any way to get at least a fairly good charge speed on a tesla charger with a Rivian? Additionally, how the hell would you use a Tesla super charger when it wouldn't recognize the vehicle (Super chargers just work automatically- without any...
I've been reading that - if utilizing a Tesla Tap - I could charge the Rivian at a Tesla charger at nearly the same speed it would charge the Tesla?
If this is the case, why the heck would I NOT just get a Tesla Tap and keep it in my truck? I could then charge at 40a at home and use Tesla...
Thanks much fellas. Very much appreciated and much more useful than the calculations mumbo-jumbo I've been sorting through. The "basics" talk of whether to purchase the wall EVSE or just use plug adapters with the right circuit I feel is FAR more pertinent to 90% of the people reading this...
