    ?Pennsylvania Rust? ?Truss Brown? ?Turnpike Tan? ?Winter Salt Mist? ?Tunnel Lights Yellow? Seriously, Great news about PA at #5. Didn't know that.
  2. Does Rivian have what it takes to survive?

    Don, You don't have to take every CP/AA reference as click-bait to fight , do you? It is obvious how you feel. Let others just live a little before needing to squash them, eh?
  3. 2026 Rivian R1S - when will they have more info on this?

    The Stay Tuned steering wheel for the R2 New exterior body color, limited edition NACS port changeover from CCS Glove box(es) ->outside chance. FSD/Eyes-On 1st release -> maybe R1S-Quad
  4. [LOCKED DUE TO INACCURATE FIGURES] Rivian U.S. Sales January 2025

    They also have a +10,000/yr EDV sales base-load from Amazon that can expand beyond Amazon to other businesses. Last week there were thousands of EDVs in Normal that count as sold awaiting pickup, yet won’t have any vehicle registration data to track. To me it’s a sales lever Rivian can use to...
  5. [LOCKED DUE TO INACCURATE FIGURES] Rivian U.S. Sales January 2025

    As always, I wonder if EDVs are including in these numbers. Knowing that they have a large number in their delivery lots and a previous post showing that Amazon takes delivery as each EDV exists the plant.
  6. No More Rivian Plant Factory Tours

    It does feel right. My line of work too has tours and we shut them down during changeovers and times when new features are coming on-line. Although, this is not the R2, it may be another EDV vendor or the R1SQM or some other feature that they have asked us to 'stay tuned' for. . .
  7. No More Rivian Plant Factory Tours

    For BMWs, there is the Spartanburg, SC pickup option. If you take it for your delivery location, BMW puts you up in a hotel for a night, feeds you dinner, breakfast and lunch the next day, you get a few hours on their test track with pro drivers in your 'model' vehicle doing fast lane changes...
  8. Electric Vehicle Sales Jump Higher in Q4, Pushing U.S. Sales to a Record 1.3 Million

    Old wound opening up here so be warned …. Heard on a podcast, InsideEVs, I think where they commented that Honda Prologue EV is really a Chevy Blazer EV but with CarPlay/AA. That and many buyers are Honda loyalists. West coast buyers have been treated well by Honda while also be starved by...
  9. Q1 2025: New All-Electric Upgrade Offer. Up to $6K USD off

    Not unexpected. However, it may be a mini-HALO desired vehicle in the used market a few years from now. I'd expect it to be as fast or a bit faster than the R2/Tri and R3X if 2x heavier. Also, I've said this in other threads. No reason Rivian can't top the yet-to-be-released Gen2/QM with a...
  10. Q1 2025: New All-Electric Upgrade Offer. Up to $6K USD off

    Because the $6k expires end of March'25 & no mention of Gen2/QM, it signals when the Gen2/QM will be available. April 1st or later. It also makes a bit of sense that if Rivian is looking at the $3k deposit backlog holders and Gen2/QM production capacity, pulling any $3k Gen2/QM deposit holders...
  11. Battery freeze up

    Working from home this week in the cold weather I've noticed that the Amazon delivery teams are driving ICE vans instead of our usual Rivian/Amazon EDVs. Wonder if Amazon has curtailed them due to range loss/cold soaking?
  12. Calif Front Plate Requirements for Visitors

    Not sure how someone from a non-front-license plate state would acquire and mount a plate if their state doesn't issue it anymore.
  13. Does Rivian have what it takes to survive?

    Local Sales Reps unresponsive - If you don’t like your sales representation, get someone else. - I’ve had several interactions with online & Spaces team members where going on a year later, they still remember me without looking at their notes. They are positive and knowledgeable...
  14. When will Rivian get CarPlay? Need better Nav and hands free text

    In the interest of keeping this thread alive for a few more pages, what will the helpful team here in this thread do if: 1) VW deploys AA/CP in their vehicles using the JV software stack used in VW/Porsche/Audi/Scout/Rivian? We know VW plans to use the JV software in all their VW family of...
  15. When will Rivian get CarPlay? Need better Nav and hands free text

    Happy to have you here. This topic rehashes almost weekly so you’re just the flame recipient of the last day of ā€˜24. More than a few here will agree that CP/AA could be good yet the company direction is to continually build out the software ecosystem bringing targeted content built closely into...
  16. CA insurance renewal skyrocketed

    Insurance rates have been on the rise for a few years. Insurance rate actuary teams use accident and insurance data two years lagging. SO, coming out of COVID, we're now paying for State Insurance Commissioners demanding insurance companies refund policy owners for not driving during COVID...
  17. New 2025 R1S Tri Motor -- Storm Blue with Slate Sky Interior

    Tri motor. Great looking vehicle.
  18. Wish the speed limiter could be increased

    There are vehicles for all peoples. Some are right laners and some are left laners. Nothing wrong with staying in ACC mode. There are places and times where more performance can come in handy, for those that desire more, it is nice there are vehicles made to carry that dream forward.
  19. Wish the speed limiter could be increased

    Just in case folks wonder about tire capabilities on the G2 Quad/Max, Rivian is supposed to put these wheels on 22-inch Michelin Pilot Sport 5s, with a staggered position of 275mm width in the front and 305mm in the rear. These will carry speed rating in the W and Y class above the 130mph top...
  20. Wish the speed limiter could be increased

    Goes both ways. Seen too many crazy attempts at street cars trying to be off-road or dune trucks.
