@Jkicks15 there are hundreds of things this truck does that a 2015 civic can’t. Just cause it doesn’t have a third party OS like Apple play or android auto doesn’t make it comparable to a civic. There are many reasons and complications for not including those…at least initially.

I'm disappointed this hasn't been rolled out to the broader audience yet. Especially if this includes a Thanksgiving surprise similar to Halloween. One would have thought they would have pushed it out this afternoon, but still don't have it.

Just following up here since it’s been a while and I never posted how I handled it: Rivian sent the sticker as others have said and that wasn’t enough for the CU you still. I had a letter of guarantee from Rivian then but that was called into question and got escalated with the CU and then I...

@ImAI For the record, guides aren’t the ones who grant shop access. Their systems assign guides based on configuration and order dates and in some cases their can be favoritism clearly, but once a guide is assigned, then the systems start to assign shop access based on those who have guides. In...

@coshesey sorry. Millimeters. Hahaha. You are correct, centimeters would be a massive gap.

I just saw a truck with the pre cut pieces and there was 2-5 centimeter gaps between the edges on all sections across the front of the truck. This installer I’ve used for years and they do fantastic work and they showed me how there’s no way to avoid the gaps when they apply the pre cut pieces...

I would highly recommend (if you’re able to) pay the little extra and not do these precut PPF pieces which are what’s used for the promo between XPEL and Rivian. The pre cut pieces are not remotely as nice as having the installer custom cut it and tuck it around the edges. The precut pieces...

@norivian honestly, I don’t think the adventure network will ever be a network really. It’ll be some rivian chargers in parks and more remote areas but that’s it. And even then it’ll be one or two chargers there at most probably. It’s more so a necessity to provide them there given their market...

@kylealden great comment about the tires/wheels. I had the truck like 48 hours before grazing a curb when trying to parallel park. As you mentioned, the tire sidewall is much better than a Tesla and the wheels were unharmed and all is well. On my MY I curb rashed 3 out of the 4 wheels and I...

@TexasBob I’d actually say EA is almost the same as DA+. The one caveat may be that DA+ May not work on as many highways as EA, but it’ll come with time. I’m in Columbus, Ohio and the major highways here are mapped which I was kind of shocked by. I did notice the Rivian tends to maybe be a...

Took delivery this past weekend of my R1T, Midnight, Black interior, 22" bright wheels. I ended up selling my 2020 Tesla Model Y to Carvana at the same time and so here are just some quick things to point out since I assume many people may be looking to make a similar jump. Build quality on the...

@sickhews it was the time he checked the shop. 11:15am

@yizzung yea shop trucks are always already built trucks so it’s just a matter of transport and make sure the truck is deliverable and nothing wrong with it. What's the VIN?

@yizzung you will definitely get it a lot quicker. Especially from the shop. If you can, they'll typically deliver within a week if all the paperwork is there and nothing is wrong with the truck.

@crashmtb agreed. I know I ran into this same issue with the same credit union a few years ago when I was buying my Tesla, and I can't remember how we remedied it and it's bugging me. They asked for the same thing and Tesla was in the same position.

So I'm trying to take delivery of my R1T and I'm going through a local credit union and in order for them to cut me a check, they are requesting a copy (front and back) of the manufacturer's certificate of origin, but according to Rivian, they don't provide those till after delivery. So now I'm...

@SoCol pics or it didn't happen :)

@yizzung minor correction, what you see in the shop are just the configurations available, not necessarily the actual number of trucks. You could see 3-5 configurations in the shop, but there could multiple trucks available for each of those. Hence why you don’t see the same exact truck twice in...

@SoCol I wouldn’t bank On too many updates this week. With the factory shut down, I assume attention is going to be spent on other issues, but hopefully I’m wrong.

@ArWonTee it's been an emotional roller coaster for me. Admittedly, I haven't waited nearly as long (Jan 2022 preorder) as some people and I anticipated waiting much longer, but I won the Rivian lottery to some degree. About 7 weeks ago, I reached out to CS and said I was flexible on build and...
