  4. Why is the R1S so cramped?

    Definitely sounds like the R1S is not for you, dodged that bullet! Perhaps have a look at the R2 when you get a chance, everyone is saying it's very spacious inside if you don't need a three row.

    Rivian said later this year for LiDAR on R2, so they have a supplier already. Them potentially making their own is for long term plans, if they even do it.

  14. Story: Rivian Adventure Network (RAN) Scaling for R2 and Beyond

    I forgot, the NEVI funds are still a go so there is some support for infrastructure. But when the current administration deactivates thousands of chargers at Fed buildings nation wide, it sure sends a message.

  18. Georgia Plant Changes Impact R3 Production (2029-2030)?
