  1. Rivian confirms POWERED tailgate has now been KILLED

    This is a bummer but I get that they have to cut costs and complexity where they can. One thing about them being a start-up with no established service network is that the more complex a vehicle they make, the more things there are to break. This is something that can be added later and I don't...
  2. How much would you invest in a Rivian IPO?

    Honestly I might would just cancel my pre-order and invest the $1,000 for a year or two then pull it out and put it toward a Rivian at that point.
  3. Video: Real life look at R1S vs Ram 1500, GMC Terrain, Chevy Suburban [@ downtown Bloomington]

    Second observation after breaking away from the trance inducing wrap... I notice that the headlights double as the turn signal (which look awesome). However, I believe in the states that there is a requirement that a portion of it be visible from the side. I thought that the light on the wheel...
  4. Video: Real life look at R1S vs Ram 1500, GMC Terrain, Chevy Suburban [@ downtown Bloomington]

    I get the same sensation looking at this wrap as I do when I stare at camp fire or the ocean. It's memorizing.
  5. Completed R1S in Rivian Blue

    Looks like Forest Green to me.
  6. Rivian Amazon Van starts deliveries making lots of noise

    On the Model 3 the PWS is very easy to unplug. I plan to do this on any future EV I buy. Having a sound this loud is completely insane especially when the vehicle is stopped. Looks like EVs won't be helping reduce noise pollution in neighborhoods and city streets as much as we thought...
  7. Alone in Alabama?

    Fellow Alabamian checking in. My wife and I are currently on the list for a "Rivian Blue" R1T. We aren't sure if we'll go through with our order though. A lot is riding on (pun intended) the test drive, warranty, and service.
  8. Start Planning Your Rivian Trips with A Better Trip Planner (ABTP) --FUN!!

    There are a few Level 2 chargers in downtown Birmingham that are free and within walking distance of some good restaurants. It might not be much but it should give you the juice you need to get the Gulf at a comfortable speed!
  9. Start Planning Your Rivian Trips with A Better Trip Planner (ABTP) --FUN!!

    I am confident that it does. Below is a post by an ABRP employee giving details on the different levels of confidence that they place on vehicles based on the amount of real world data they have collected by their users...
  10. Start Planning Your Rivian Trips with A Better Trip Planner (ABTP) --FUN!!

    The app is also excellent. Keep in mind that the ABRP uses community data to make range predictions more accurate. This means that the current predicted range will likely change after the vehicles have been on the road for a while. You can also add data other than driving speed (i.e. temp...
  11. Rivian plans smaller models targeted for China and Europe

    Not to get political... but I don't understand how companies can on one hand fight so hard for social equality and justice here in the states and on the other turn to China and say "Yeah, we'd love to do business with you." I mean look at what China did to Hong Kong just last year and companies...
  12. Rivian ford partnership to resume

    I like this theory but like you said, we don't have anything to go off of. It sounds like the partnership was originally intended to result in a Lincoln (basically Ford) branded vehicle. In your scenario it makes me wonder if it would be a Ford or Rivian branded vehicle. We've seen the images of...
  13. Rivian R1T to participate in the 2020 Rebelle Rally [Update: 6th Place Finish]

    Yes, I noticed this too. Someone from Rivian needs to give her a call and let her know. People are gonna think this is the Lordstown Endurance. She sure is drumming up hype for their design...
  14. Rivian R1T to participate in the 2020 Rebelle Rally [Update: 6th Place Finish]

    You can see her hand here pressing the button to open the frunk. This is new info to me. I figured that there'd be a button somewhere but this is the first time I've seen it actually used. Also, it looks like she has to keep it pressed until the hatch is fully open and again until it is fully...
  15. Rivian R1T Design Deep Dive by a Designer

    I have wondered this as well and I have a guess. I'm thinking that the two vehicles are so similar that they can do most of the testing and data gathering by just using one vehicle. Rivian is still a small company, so rather than split and spread themselves too thin to test each independently...
  16. Rivian R1T to participate in the 2020 Rebelle Rally [Update: 6th Place Finish]

    This will be a great durability test for them! I'm hoping that they will be entering the production version of the vehicle that we recently saw camo'd up in the desert testing series. Maybe they'll show a new color too! With it being in October I'd image that they will have it ready by then.
  17. Rivian configurator coming "Late Summer"

    So after putting down my deposit last week I decided email Rivian and see if I could squeeze any tidbit of new info from them. I asked about when reservation holders can expect to hear more about the following things... Service plans, warranty coverage, configurator, and test drives. I don't...
  18. Introductions! Drop in and say hello new and old members...

    Hey y'all! I've been on the forum for about a month now and have been keeping track on Rivian for about twice that. My wife and I just put down a deposit on an R1T last night and we are both very excited. We are definitely on the low side of the age demographic for this expensive of a vehicle...
