With the advent of R1S deliveries, I was wondering if anyone has had the opportunity (or heard of upcoming possibilities) to drive an R1S. Even though I'm sure I'm down the line for fulfillment, both my wife and I would like to be able to check one out before committing to our largest...
Fellow cheapskate/Explore-preorderer here - with the added multiplier of OC interior. I was cautiously optimistic for an end of 2023 arrival, but I'll admit I hadn't given much thought to Rivian canceling the Explore trim entirely. Maybe it's time to raid the sofa cushions and switch to an...
Admittedly, my question/comment was a little tongue in cheek, but I am still curious how the mechanics of the purchase would happen. Has there been/are there any other rebates that depend on AGI out there?
If it's a point of sale price reduction - how will the AGI limits be imposed? Hypothetically, it's apparently quite easy to make a PDF of the front page of a 1040 and alter/amend numbers....
Congratulations on your Rivainniversary! I'm also a 6/19 pre-order, albeit for an Explore R1S, so I'm guessing I'll be celebrating 4+ years before actually getting to purchase - talk about delayed gratification!
Wow - looking at the poll results - that's a rather large spread of anticipated dates! Not sure what that says about the current state of hopes and expectations.... :)
So I have a fiscally responsible (aka cheapskate) R1S Explore edition preordered (6/19), for which the delivery window is 1st half of 2023. Given all that's going on, when do you think first deliveries will actually occur? Optimistically, I could see some of the current issues (supply chain etc)...
Congratulations to all the owners currently enjoying their new rides! I'm curious what percentage had a test drive before purchasing. So here's a quick poll for you lucky people!
Thanks!
Count me in as an R1S Explore cheapskate. Keeping the total price to < $75K makes it a whole lot more palatable, and gives me some breathing room to compare/contrast with the Lyric, Buzz, and other SUV, people movers in the next year...
I changed my config to the dual motor R1S and the long range pack to get to a price of ~$82k, albeit with a delivery date of 2024.
So in the meantime, I'll be taking long hard looks at the BMW iX, Genesis GV80, VW Buzz, and any other SUV/minibus/people carrier with a 300mile plus range that...
It may not be an SUV, but the VW Buzz will be appearing in 2023, so as an Explore pre-order, I'll be comparing and contrasting these two in a year's time...
Come 2022/early 2023, and my R1S isn't with me, then if the VW Buzz has a 300mi + range, I might have some long thoughts about which vehicle to go with...
