Rivian "liked" an Amazon tweet today. From the Amazon link in the tweet: Electrifying our fleet Amazon is committed to electrifying its delivery fleet. Amazon ordered 100,000 custom electric delivery vehicles from Rivian, marking the largest order ever of electric delivery vehicles, with all...

The rise of brand new, second hand electric vehicles (this story is posted both at Wired and ArsTechnica) No surprise in this forum, 2nd hand EV's are popular. Some semi-interesting quotes: David Cottrell got his $39,999 Tesla Model Y last February. The compact electric hatchback was a...

I have been looking over last November's "window delivery" survey and the currently active "actual delivery" survey on the site. A few comments are below. Nothing surprising, but posting FWIW. My thanks to the site (and members!) for collecting and posting the data. (My apologies for...

Based on accounts posted on this forum, Rivian went all out in Q1 to make and deliver as many EV’s as possible. I think It’s likely Rivian will release Q1 production (1/1/22 to 3/31/22) ”soon”. Also thinking it would be interesting to survey what forum members predict for Q1 Rivian EV...

We received an email from Rivian today," Drive Modes and Home Charging Hints" It advises, among other things: 3. Plan In Advance There’s high demand for charger installation, and many electricians are booked in advance. Plan ahead to make sure you’re all set when your charger arrives; our...

W/ apologies for being a little annoying, the stock > 53 as I type this. 50% run up from two weeks ago when RIVN dropped below 35. I somehow picked that day to add 180 @ 35.2, adds to the 125 shares purchased from the IPO. My average cost ~52.75. (Hopefully I was lucky to pick a...

Surveying Rivian deliveries for tire/wheel combinations. (Copying RVXIA's poll for interior options) Trying to document what Rivian is actually delivering right now. Thanks for any inputs provided, comments from Guides or other RIvian contacts on wheel and tire choices!

Trying to compare charging and gas costs for a R1T. My utility offers an interesting experimental EV rate (4.2 cents/kwhr), but only if I charge after 10pm, w high penalties for other times. Looking for input/corrects/comments on my estimates and answers to a couple of questions. Would...

On a recent consumer reports podcast (Talking Cars, 3/7/22), they mentioned the additonal drag caused by even empty cargo crossbars was significant, causing a 5mpg loss on Nissan Altima, and a 2 MPG loss on a Toyota RAV4. Has anyone seen similar data for EV's? I guess we'd expect a few %...

Have seen a few posts related to Homelink, MyQ, garage door openers. Wanted to mention Tailwind as an option. I added a MyQ sensor to my garage 3-4 years ago, then replaced with a Tailwind (gotailwind.com) sensor ~a year ago. MyQ was ok, but not as reliable as I'd like using my iphone to...

I’m surprised that the delivery window email made no mention of guide contacts. I wonder if Rivian is rethinking that part of the order process.

BI just posted an article recommending against investing at the target price implying at $50-60 billion valuation. Its really light reading, like most BI articles, but most of the points make good sense. Don't Buy Rivian Stock After Its IPO, a Report Says (businessinsider.com) It hasn't...

27 months and counting on my FG R1T order. Made a keytag recently on my 3d printer to help bide the time. A little rough, thinking about some alternative designs. Rivian Key Tag by nealc10 - Thingiverse
