Long question. R1S looks cool, sits up higher than crossovers, is fast. New burb, expedition, jeep thing all look bloated and dated already. Hopefully it's nice for the price. Wife doesn't do much offroading.
There are plenty of praise posts here. Nothing wrong with pointing out some issues. Cupholders......Plus, Rivian pays attention to this forum, so some of our complaints may be addressed. RWDmode......Most people have been waiting a very long time for these trucks and most of have not seen one in...
2wd mode is front wheel drive? Why on earth would they do that? For a vehicle that is supposed to tow things, this makes no sense whatsoever. And no donuts. SMH
The preorders are a large enough pool for rivian to have a good idea of what percentage of each configuration buyers will be looking for. So if you change your mind, they know about how many others will be in line to snatch it up. If you have yellow with green interior, they may be a little...
I am not, but it will be great to see customers personalize these in different ways. While too heavy for real track use, these should make great street performers. Wheel size won't be the issue, it's the tires. Weather you have 20s (lighter) or 22s, getting the right tires on there will make a...
I believe as soon as they get Government approval, a truck will be headed to Duck. He has shown to be a fantastic person to deal with what comes with being 1st. I remember reading that employees and investors won't be 1st and they have preproduction units to play with. My money is Duck having...
In my back yard as soon as I can!
RJ acts like they need to make sure people don't do it in areas like parks, but it's definitely a matter of them advertising a feature and having to honor the warranty. If you really wanted to keep people from doing things they shouldn't, why give it so much...
X7 would be the alternative. There is no other EV that is remotely appealing to my family and that is what has us so excited for the R1S. At this time, Rivian has the attention of buyers that are not "must have ev" crowd. We are a little scared that Rivian will be too techy, but are happy to...
Tank turn looks cool, but I really really really want to be able to turn off all traction and stability control, and put it in 2wd. Will be a huge disappointment if I can't, not going to cancel my order.....but still. Is there anything more fun than doing a burnout into donuts? Maybe I'm just a...
I agree with everything he/she said. Why does everyone get their feelings hurt when someone complains about something? That's worse than the complaint itself, which I found pretty funny. The table was pretty lame, but I'm not taking my ball home or canceling my order.
I agree and was using LR as an example due to the reputation. LR may not be Toyota, and that's ok, but definitely not what they used to be. I would have no problem getting a LR and if the R1S doesn't work out, I would probably be getting an X7 or defender extended length when they come out...
Yeah, that's why I used Land Rover as an example, they have issues to put it lightly. My point is I do expect the early vehicles from a new manufacturer to have some teething issues and I'm ok with that reality. Hopefully we are all pleasantly surprised. I also think both vehicles are expensive...
There is a lot of questioning and complaining about lack of features or what is not included in general on this forum. For the record, I enjoy the complaining and do not understand why people get upset when people do complain. Isn't that why we are here? It would be really uninteresting to read...
So the table of colors seems to show the interiors below it. Is ocean coast really a light blue with white wood? Not at all what the configurator shows and it's scaring me. Seems as all the pics posted show it to be white with a natural colored wood, which looks really good.
A friend of mine has a TRX and it is everything you hope it to be. It is for sale if interested at $95ish. He has had it for 6mo, and it's really just a toy for him. After driving the TRX, you can't go back to a Raptor, it really is that much more fun, and I'm a Ford guy.
