I am so excited to be able to revisit this thread now that I have a vehicle to pick up tomorrow. I could even poll for the orders today and find the last charge session before pickup. Thanks for doing some of the legwork for all of us!
I’m definitely looking at my issue as better now than after I take delivery and get farther away. I am very hopeful for a 100,000 mostly issue-free miles ahead! Can’t wait to pick up tomorrow!
Sorry to hear this. It really would be nice to hear from Rivian how many of these types of issues are occurring. We almost need a "check-in" type of system to have every owner check in daily with any issues or anomalies.
I didn't think there could be many issues in real life until I went to...
Nice load packed up! I was in Steamboat last week watching the Rivian pass by while waiting patiently for an R1S delivery last Friday (pushed to tomorrow now due to sw issue).
Agree the Kum&Go ChargePoint wasn’t bad. I loaned our Tesla CCS adapter to a fellow Tesla that only had the j1772 one...
Same lightweight material with the Teslas. It freaks me out every time I have to close the frunk and have to set down what I am holding to do it. This is from the Tesla user manual.
Same with our 2022 Model 3. It can get pretty darn loud, especially from outside the vehicle when parking. But it cools down well and no vibrations inside. 4 more days to find out on the R1S!
If you haven’t seen it, @rateyourcharge is a good place to post experiences at chargers.

Great to hear this! Do you have a list of things you checked on? I pick up this coming Friday. Right now my list is:
Dent under the door handles
Any doors, frunk or tailgate rubbing paint on paint
Steering alignment
Obvious panel gaps (also a model 3 owner and love it! - no issues with it)
AC...
The process could be improved significantly. Perhaps to reach 50,000 deliveries this year, it is not as important on the list of things "todo." I'm in a similar boat. I had a VIN assigned in June 2023 and today still no estimate on when I need to be prepared to accept delivery. I will share my...
It is too difficult to track the deliveries and how each one progresses. I feel like I am always reading way too much into it and coming to my own assumptions, which is bad.
I started my 8-step process on June 23, 2023, with an R1S VIN 11xxx. My original estimate was August-September. After 4...
My view from living in Colorado is: the most important part to the vehicle is the battery pack. These things can and will go a lot of places. I want the lowest chance of something jumping on the road, running over it, and causing damage to the pack. I want to keep the vehicle on the road for as...
Thanks for posting the video! I had not seen this one from Monro and I learned a lot about the design. I feel a little better now that an R1S may be arriving for me in the next couple of weeks.
Thanks for this! We haven’t had much hot weather in Denver until recently. I’m very curious how the AC sorts out for you. A glass roof gets warm here (model 3) and good AC is needed to offset that.
I'm starting my 8 steps now. Im only a little bit scared.
No matter the location, this type of event happening more frequently is a huge concern for society. This isn't the Wild West, or is it? It just makes me so sad when things like this happen and there is no good reason for it if someone's life wasn't in immediate danger.
I must say this came as a surprise to me this morning. My speculation is Tesla is targeting as many buyers that qualify for the tax rebate as possible. Having completed my First Mile drive just this past weekend in an R1S, the price drop alone is a compelling reason to consider a Model Y. It...
Thanks for the post and the info from @Thedude on Colorado. I'm' R1S reservation and have a Jayco X20D trailer to take all around Colorado. I am very curious how the regen will work on the hills around here.
Question: does the auto-hold work with the trailer attached? If you are stopped on an...
When the CarPlay discussions came up last year, I wasn't really thinking about it. I never had it and I usually just listen to Bluetooth music in the car. Then, with the R1S delivery being unpredictable and a teen that hit a deer (they are ok, just the vehicle was damaged), we picked up a 2020...
Login and in the browser go into the Developer tools (command+option+I mostly). On the network tab of dev tools, search for "graph" and you will see a listing. Select each one and when you find the one with data, user, order details, etc in the output, look for the estimatedDeliverywindow section.
