It's going to be worth it
Yep the delays and lack of communication are not something I'd usually put up with. I'd usually cancel and take my business elsewhere, but in this case there isn't really a "elsewhere". Sure we could order a Tesla Model X for more money that "might" arrive in March...
I haven't spent any time sorting out the Lightning audio, but out of the box the R1T has a much better sound to me. I run Qobuz and Tidal for music on road trips but haven't taken a road trip in either so far. I will say the wind leaks/noise from the R1T is annoying at highway speeds if you...
That seems odd, the dealer I selected knew about my order basically from the moment I placed it. Not saying he had any super useful information but the dealer was able to outline the milestones in the process for me and keep me updated. On top of that even if he hasn't been invited to order he...
I found the opposite to be true. It took calendar days for approval of my documents uploaded to Rivian.
I did have the advantage of previously purchasing several vehicles from this dealership so the entire transaction was under 10 minutes. They always have everything prepared ahead of our...
It’s a tough choice, I didn’t expect the Ford to be this well thought out and executed. But the R1T does and can do things the Lightning isn’t designed for. And I’ll need more seat time to decide myself. Good luck to you
Lariat.
IMHO, ALEXA has gotten dumber with more use for me. I find myself using "Hey Siri" 90% of the time versus "Alexa" And the Rivian Nav, is basically dead to me for both charging and directions.
These are just my "Opinions"
Kind of like trying to pick which kid you like more. Both have their Pro's and Con's
Ride - Lighting. Actually it's not that close from a comfort basis
Ride - R1T. Actually it's not that close from a Sporty/Handling basis/feel
Interior - Lightning. I just like the...
?? 4 taking the high road. I’ve got 2 orders in front of him by more than a year. I think honesty would have gone farther with me by just admitting it was a marketing move.
It’s all in how “going into production” is defined. My guess is that is when the guide became aware of a truck they could assign to a reservation holder. Congratulations, hope you enjoy it ??
My Ford Lightning arrived today ??
Still waiting for my registration and plate for my R1T though. The state dmv was holding it up, asked for updated insurance info because they took so long to process it the expiration date came and went.
My R1T will be up for sale on Monday. Hate to get rid...
I think they have figured out what their priorities are.. And they aren't what a lot of people currently waiting for their delivery want them to be. Hopefully they are better at multitasking than they are at communications and follow through.
Not that he is right or wrong, but they have to keep it interesting to keep the views up :)
It's easy to back seat drive Rivian's decisions and planning. Is it under priced? I think so. Would I own it if they would have followed through on the price increase? Slightly unlikely that I'd still...
Dude you are entitled to your opinions no matter how repeatedly condescending and arrogant they appear to be. I think everyone is clear on where you stand now.
I like the idea of using the button at the end of the shifter stalk for a Exiting Kill Switch. Just hold it for a few seconds until...
