I happened to be in Bellevue, and there were at least 2 R1S's in the lot yesterday. They could be employee deliveries, since Rivian has an office in Seattle, but it's a good sign! Looked to be RB w/ 20' AT's (non-bright) and LG but I couldn't see the wheels.
FWIW, I have had that feature for a while (FSD Beta) and I really hated it. Perhaps I should try it again, I'm pretty sure in the initial implementation there was no delay so it chimed even if you took off pretty much right away.
I am an R1S pre-order customer from 11/27/2018 and my wife and I have both had First Mile drives. Mine happened in December of 2021 when they first opened First Mile drives in Seattle, my wife had hers a few months ago when my Guide was first assigned. As is probably obvious, the drives were in...
People keep saying this but I really don't think there is any evidence this is true. Alexa doesn't prevent using Car Play or Android Auto. Alexa exists side by side with these systems on other vehicles. Amazon Music and Audible aren't first-party apps. The FireTV experience that is shipping with...
I used Puget Sound Cooperative Credit Union for my Tesla. Not sure if they still do it, but they did extra low-interest loans for EV buyers back in 2018. I'll use them again if they are still doing that when Rivian finally gets me my R1S.
I asked on a thread on here months ago and I swear another owner said they got it to work... Really huge bummer if it doesn't considering it's been in the owner's manual for months...
It was definitely a gamble. I was expecting them to announce the longer-range R1S at the launch of the production R1S (because the website said for like a year they would do exactly that) and I figured ordering the LE would give me the most flexibility... and then they went and killed the...
I ordered the Launch Edition because I wanted one asap. I don't need the 7 seats and if it didn't require delays, I'd choose a longer range 5-seater no question.
I was doing some trip planning for a potential epic road trip from Seattle -> Maine and back and some of those gaps are really big for sure.....Some of those chargers in places like Dickinson, ND are only 50kW too.
In case it helps you feel better... I've covered the PacNW pretty thoroughly in my 2018 Model 3 LR RWD (~310 miles of quote range) and it's pretty doable with short or no stops most of the time. The NW corner of the Olympic Peninsula and the Winthrop/Thorp areas are probably the hairiest.
100%. Since they never offered it, it won’t have a legacy price. My random ass guess is we won’t see a longer range R1S until we see Rivian produced motors in quad motor as well, producing close to 1000 hp total.
Machines in this case, most likely... and the bracelet is definitely not expensive unless they made really strange material choices. Apple (who notoriously gets high margins from things like this) charges $50 for their silicon watch bands. Hell, you can buy a whole Fitbit with much more...
