I did not see anything about moving out of california, only that they were making an HQ. You can technically have two depending on what they're function is or what the oversight is. From what I understand from the article, its basically there because the large factory is going to be there which...

Well to give you a little peace of mind in the wait for the car, not everyone will convert their reservation to an actual order and there is always a chance a vehicle will be built and then not taken and give you an opportunity to buy as is. I hope you get the car sooner rather than later.

Since technically the store isn't open yet and don't have inventory, I don't see why the charger couldn't be used by the public. I'm assuming they put it there for the vehicle they will use for test driving to charge. I do want to know when they are opening though. I was curious and saw there...

From my experience, most men aren't great listens. "Hey dad, there's a hole there." 10 seconds later. "Crap, hey daughter, there's a hole there." Repeat for most of my life and add my brothers too. I love my family, but they're not listening drives me up a wall. But seeing that RJ is kind of...

Agreed. You never know which company will end up succeeding. Even if its never succeeded before, there is always a first. Just like when EVs started and everyone said it wouldn't work. It's growing even if its not as fast as we'd like. Always a first for everything.

I've seen some Rivian work trucks too that work for the city. It's nice to see.

Went to the Gaithersburg, MD Service Center and he told me that Rivian is putting a showroom in Tyson's Corner. I hadn't heard anything about a showroom popping up there (it's not even on Rivian's website), but sure enough, Tyson's Corner's map shows Rivian Coming soon. Just a bit aways from the...

Honestly, if I notice a youtube channel doing constant clickbait titles, I stop watching them. It makes me angry and loses credibility with me because you aren't meeting me with honesty so how can I trust the things in your videos 100%? I agree, that the title will fuel EV haters because they...

Really depends on a few factors. Like if they need all the validation builds for testing and don't have it in the approved budget to build another one for showing. If there are features they are not ready to release to the public yet for another couple months. If there are minor physical...

The VP of manufacturing in the video mentioned that they were trying to finish the R2 portion of the factory by Q4. They also said in the video that the EDV portion of the factory was currently shut down for retooling which would be up and running in a week.

For OOS I usually have them on as background noise or skip around, but I was keeping an ear out for R2 mentions.

A bit unrelated, but was watching Out of Spec's Rivian Factory Tour from them and during the tour, the VP of Manufacturing (who was acting as their tour guide) said the factory upgrade for the R2 section had to be completed by Q4. Hopefully that means earlier release date for the R2 Q1 R2...

You know, as much as RJ is showing, we'll be able to 3D print our own car soon

Well, I'm coming from a 2018 Nissan Sentra SV. Everything will be an upgrade! Keep the news coming RJ. I need fuel to help me endure the wait.

Someone pointed this out to me on youtube, but the head rest is different the the prototype design. Simpler than the prototype that likely used the R1 series headrest when pieced together.

I agree. They would complicate things considerably. Hopefully, they either got a great deal to avoid tariffs or have bought them before the tariffs hit.

They explained it is 1) an automotive tradition and they wanted to have fun with it. 2) There are small changes still happening

From what they said, it is to hide smaller details they are not ready to reveal yet (they have made small modifications. How small, who knows. They also said that it is just an automotive tradition. They also use the wrap to see how it will affect cameras and sensors as people will wrap the...

Yeah, not that hard. The wheels protrude in a way you can hit it with your middle fingers from behind like shift paddles. As a gamer that also has a haptic feedback controller, I'm excited because it really is cool and makes a difference.
