  1. ? Official EPA Range and MPGe Numbers for R1T & R1S

    Yeah - This pretty much firms up my resolve to wait for the larger pack for the R1S... Whatever that ends up being.... If I go conservative and say a loss of 15% that's 268.6 miles..... and that's not counting battery degradation nor straight highway miles.... I could see a full charge on the...
  2. ? Official EPA Range and MPGe Numbers for R1T & R1S

    Quote from Rivian's website: "our battery system was built to explore, delivering an EPA estimated 316 miles of range when paired with 21" wheels. For 20" wheels, our estimates show a range reduction of 10-15%, with a 5-10% reduction for 22" wheels."
  3. Offroading an EV

    Welcome to the forums Stuart! I think the R1S will be perfect for your needs and I am also very hopeful that at least one of the off road modes has a more subdued throttle response for those more technical off road environments..... and while we haven't yet seen video of all the modes in action...
  4. Off-Road Upgrade or Not?

    Well we have to be a little careful here…. Until a few months ago (I don’t remember the exact date because I never considered dropping it). The off road full coverage protection was a standard item. They dropped the full under body coverage (they also dropped the price by $2000) and then added...
  5. Doug Demuro Review (eventual placeholder) - predictions (as of 9/2/21)

    There is a good chance one of his viewers will offer theirs up for review... May not have to wait for a media vehicle.
  6. Official Email: Our First Mile Event Tour is hitting the road

    I guess I'll be moving soon.... Hmmm Chicago/New York or California.....
  7. What would you do? Get LE version (300+) or wait for MaxPack (400+)?

    Here's a question for you BEV owners out there.... How far do you think you'd have to drive to get a decent sense of range? For my test drive I am hoping to get up to highway speed for 20 miles or so and then attempt to calculate for myself how far I could reasonably go in similar conditions...
  8. Is anyone else concerned due to lack of Guide Contact?!?!

    In my opinion there is absolutely no way Rivian delays the R1T past September. I could see them running the line slowly and the deliveries to trickle out over the coming months but a straight up push to January can't happen. RJ has confirmed September deliveries are on track and in my opinion...
  9. Rivian Files For IPO Valued at $80 Billion! UPDATE: S-1 Filed

    “Delayed Indefinitely” is more like what GM did with Nikola!
  10. What would you do? Get LE version (300+) or wait for MaxPack (400+)?

    This question has been the bane of my existence…. I am currently lucky enough to have a Launch Edition R1S configured, however, for my use case the 400 mile pack is what I’ve always planned to get. Of course with the R1S there is no guarantee when or if that will happen…. Right now just...
  11. Rivian Files For IPO Valued at $80 Billion! UPDATE: S-1 Filed

    bold is mine…. Pretty sure this is not true but is lousy reporting or attempting to keep the value down..lol of course if true that would be a very bad day for those of us waiting for the R1S. Edit: to be clear I was not blaming you @DocAdvocate - that Info is straight from the Bloomberg article.

    I really am hoping I've stepped into a traditional dealership for the last time....
  13. RJ Interview from 2018 - Pre-Reveal

    Found this video from an event in Normal back in October(ish) of 2018. I found it really interesting to see his perspective on where they were headed vs where we know them to be now. Granted Covid got in the way of some of their milestones but still a fascinating interview. Since Rivian is...
  14. What Will you do when you Take Delivery?

    Here's my plan for getting from Normal back to Austin if I'm allowed factory delivery..... :p
  15. New video "Let's Just Drive" & official letter from RJ provides huge update!

    I felt like RJ glossed over this a little bit. He talked about the tie in to Insurance but I wanted a little bit more firm answer about being able to view and download videos from the system. Maybe not from an accident.... Say I drive a cool trail and want to grab some footage.... or more of a...
  16. Real Rivian Photos & Videos

    Finally home after a night out and getting a chance to check out Rivian's story from earlier. One thing I noticed are that the spot lights in the side mirrors that I pointed out back in April are still on the most recent builds they had on display during the round table discussion. It makes me...
  17. New video "Let's Just Drive" & official letter from RJ provides huge update!

    Agreed! Makes me feel like I was there!….. ok not really! ?

    I'd pay money to see them invite @skyote to the factory and then hand him the "key" to a Canyon Red saying "sorry this is all we have for you to test drive!"

    You and I could be twins.... lol -I've been through almost the exact same rollercoaster..... Forest Green, El Cap, and Rivian Blue...... Although Limestone has not been on my short list..... Right now I'm El Cap or Rivian Blue...... R1S LOL - Don't shoot the messenger.... That was from the...

    That’s it I think I have to go with the Burnt Orange also known as Canyon Red! Just so @skyote has to see it every time we have a meet up in Austin! :rock::cool:
