Given the March 2023 extension, do you physically have to take delivery of the vehicle by this time to still get the $7,500 EV credit (I'm under the income limit and my R1S is just under $80,000) or does completing most or all of 8 steps process count?
I ask because my account page says...
Add me to this group that received the configuration email tonight! I was also assigned a guide which was not available previously so that part feels different. At first I thought it was just for Rivian to get better info in preparation for their January update but being assigned a guide has me...
Thanks for sharing and very helpful feedback. My R1S is scheduled for an April-June 2023 delivery and I have the 20 AT tires selected because I was hoping to have it during the winter months.
I'm wondering if I should switch to the 21" tires now (especially given the delivery estimate) and...
Another concern I have is if adding the XPEL PPF now on my configuration will disqualify me for the new tax incentive for electric cars. I am under the $80,000 price point with my R1S Adventure but adding this will put me at $80,300 (I believe). Would adding the PPF be counted towards the sale...
I haven't been there in a while but I did get an invite to do a first mile demo drive on an R1S. I am scheduled to do my drive next Saturday. You might give them a call and see.
Just decided to randomly check my Rivian account and got invited to a First Mile demo drive for R1S. They had a new little calendar icon on my account page which invited me for a test drive.
For those who got invited to a test drive recently, did you get your new R1S/T shortly thereafter...
Congratulations! That is so exciting for you. I have been going back and forth with the interior. Currently settled on BM but originally had OC and I'm pre-March order so no extra change for OC. I like BM because it'll show less dirt and stains (have kids and puppy) but worried about how hot it...
I live in Denver so not sure if my electrician works up in your area or not but worth a try. Adam Grimes has done a couple electrical projects and he's great. I had him set up the hardwire to our detached garage and got everything thing set up. He'll come back to finish the job once I get my R1S...
We did get a chance to make it to the Rivian Hub and it was great to see them in person and actually get to sit in them and test out the various features. I forgot to do this but you can make an appointment if you know what date and time you plan to go. We were able to walk in without an...
I'm visiting my parents in Orange County (grew up here) and planning on going to the Venice Showroom later today to see the R1S in person. Really looking forward to finally seeing it in person but sadly my timeline pushed from Oct-Dec delivery to 1st half of 2023. This will have to tide me over...
What is a little ambiguous for us R1S holders with this latest email is this part:
This includes much anticipated updates to many of our R1S preorder holders. For those who’d previously received an estimated window in 2022 but will now be later than that, we want you to have this update so that...
I got the email (R1S Adventure Oct-Dec 22 delivery estimate) but nothing in my account or guide contact. Do I dare hope that this means I should get ready for a very early delivery because not everyone received this email? Live in Denver (lots of R1Ts at Service Center) and configured to...
Thanks for sharing those great pics and glad you got a test drive scheduled. I was wondering how the CS folks reacted to you dropping by and checking out the cars? I live a few miles from there and drove by when they first completed the building and started operating. Wasn't sure if they were...
I wanted to see what other Coloradans do in terms of seasonal tire swap outs. We've been in Denver for 9 years now and swap out our regular "summer" tires with winter tires (Blizzaks that aren't AT) for Oct-April for both of our SUVs. We know it helps with traction not only when we drive to the...
Their Chief Growth Officer needs to go. Of course I don't know all the parties involved in these decisions but it seems like a lot of the mistakes are coming from his watch/leadership.
Glad Rivian and RJ got better feedback to make this right. I was really torn with supporting their mission...
I checked my account and didn't see anything either about signing up. I reserved an R1S and not expected to get it until Oct-Dec. 2022 so not sure if they are prioritizing R1Ts and early delivery folks or not.
It's a light duty truck because the weight is less than 10,000 lbs. Here is a link to the CO Energy Office that has some details (and a nice pic of R1T):

Here is a link to the $500 home wiring rebate but it looks like you still need to enroll in the "Save Plus Optimize Your Charge Program" to qualify.

In the FAQ section it says that it will cover the installation as well as the 2 chargers...
