First we saw the R2-D2-inspired R2. Then we saw a similar droid-inspired paint job using orange as the accent color. I was thinking about all of this and then tate16t posted the following image (see below). Could we be seeing hints of upcoming R2 launch colors through these paint jobs? We know...

I thought this was a very well put together recap of all the changes the R2 has gone through since it was revealed in March of 2024. Mike’s channel is growing and this video is worth a watch.

Toyota seems to be developing more EVs these days, like the refreshed Bz, the CH-R, and the Woodland. Could this teaser be the Highlander EV? https://www.thedrive.com/news/the-toyota-highlander-ev-is-coming-and-this-might-be-it

I just watched the YouTuber The Duke of Middleville and he has some very interesting points about the upcoming R2 Launch. Mostly speculation, but interesting nonetheless. He’s a Rivian owner and fan. Some topics for discussion: • Launching two R2s (within 6 months of each other) • R2 Gen 2 vs...

How are you guys prepping your Rivian and/or other EV for this major winter storm (charging to 100% in case the power goes out, etc)? Here’s what’s going down in my neck of the woods (Central Ohio) tonight into tomorrow according to NOAA: * WHAT...Heavy snow expected. Total snow accumulations...

Does anyone have any new information about Rivian’s R2 Roadtrip on Route 66 (social media posts, etc)? I don’t do social media, so I was hoping there would be more news. Also are they anywhere near the impending snow and/or ice storm?

Here’s an article on what Rivian plans on doing in Georgia. Also a great shot of an R2, R3, and the R3X. https://www.wsbtv.com/news/local/atlanta/rivian-work-with-3-georgia-colleges-universities-develop-ev-plant-workforce/3GAVNUFIEJCQZLFQUU5I4UYJWQ/

Here’s some new info on the Rivian Georgia Plant. Looks like things are moving forward with an event scheduled on September 14th, 2025. The loan is secure if ground is broken. https://www.theoaklandpress.com/2025/08/18/rivian-to-hold-groundbreaking-events-next-month-for-5b-georgia-factory/

Now this is what I’m talking about. Now just make it 30 seconds long and put it on TikTok. Also show the interior, the back seats going down, camping, etc. Either that or make 5 separate small ads with the different subjects listed above.

Rivian posted this to LinkedIn. Rivian Commons sounds cool, but it’s the R3 that I want to see. Atlanta here I come! Are they going to let me in if I don’t have a Rivian yet? I can test drive the R3 for you. Hello, anybody out there? 😜

Disclaimer: I’m not a financial advisor. Purchase stock at your own risk. Rivian stock is at $14 a share as of after hours on 6/6/25. Anyone think this is a good time to load up? Still gotta get to R2’s release in 2026, but it has to be uphill from there, right? They’ve got Amazon money...

What do you think Rivian’s new color palette will be going forward (2026~)? We already know that they’re discontinuing Compass Yellow (booooo), Launch Green may be making a comeback with the R2 (yaaaaay), and the R3 and R3X are sporting Permafrost (a grayish-green) and Laguna Blue (a deep teal)...

Kyle felt bad for slamming Rivian recently, so he wanted to make a counter video to talk about some of the positives. TL;DR: He’s recommending leasing a Gen2 R1T or R1S base model. I think the cheapest one right now is $599 a month! Thoughts?

What do you think of the Kia EV3? It’s also coming to the US in 2026 (soon to be available in Korea and Europe). It’s a subcompact crossover just like the R2, but it starts at $10K less ($35K). With the $7,500 tax credit going away we need cheaper EVs ASAP. This could be one to watch. Rivian...

I thought everyone might like to see this video from Out of Spec Detailing. They focus a little too much on panel gaps in my opinion, but the overall message is that Rivian has come a long way and is getting better all the time. What do you think?

I know my title is a little clickbaity, but too bad. Now that Tesla is supposedly not building a more affordable $25K vehicle, I feel like this puts more pressure on Rivian to succeed and be able to develop a diverse lineup of vehicles including the R3. I don’t care if the R3 ends up costing...

How do you think MotorTrend ranked these three EV trucks?
