Like others mentioned, shop exploded today with R1S'. They didn't show up as early in the day as past weeks but think they all showed up around 10:30am PT or so.
Not confirmed, but speculating that I was seeing the same inventory out of the Costa Mesa SC as the factory. I changed my address two...
For anyone that wants to see the goodies coming out of the factory, just change your delivery address to the Normal factory and you'll see them.
Zero R1S' in the shop out of the Costa Mesa SC since Thursday morning. But tons at the factory. Warning though, I keep looking at them and...
Thanks Tim! Giving me hope. I've been refreshing throughout the day, no new inventory. I've gotten pretty well acquainted to the R1T inventory as well. I had resigned myself to just waiting until the end of quarter push to start seeing new units pop up in the shop.
I even just installed a...
For SoCal to be delivered to Costa Mesa, I was granted access on Thursday night. Saw four R1S' when I first logged in. They slowly disappeared over the following day. Been checking all weekend and today. No new units in the shop.
Aug 2021 Preorder
8/21 preorder, originally in WA was pushed to Q3 2023, moved to CA in April and got pushed to Q4 2023. But, finally got a demo drive (never got offered one in WA due to the dealership laws) after moving to CA.
Anyway, after having to reschedule a few times due to work, got my demo drive in last...
I noticed the steering wheel on our demo drive R1S also had the same issue. Off to the left/counterclockwise by a few degrees in order for the car to drive straight. I just attributed it to the fact that the demo cars must've taken a beating.
Oddly enough, my in-law's new RX350h also has an...
To be fair, your preorder date was in early 2021 so I think they've been making headway there. Seen plenty of preorders around your preorder date already getting their S. In addition, I think the Bellevue Center has been catching up, the Portland SC is live and operational from what I've read...
That's true, delivery should take nowhere as long as service. But the hour you quoted is just the interaction time when the customer is there.
Seeing the condition of some of the trucks that came off the auto-carriers, they def. spend a lot of time cleaning them up (absolutely filthy, looked...
Surprised to see the call for an R2-based minivan? I would've assumed for proper size, range, and performance, we'd want it built on the R1 platform. Assuming it'd be between the R1S and R1T in length.
But 100% agree. At every conference I go to, I tend to rent minivans whether for hauling...
I went to Costa Mesa last week for my First Mile and it was packed! Great folks, the host of our demo drive was an enthusiast. Had a great time just chatting about his background and car history.
Given some of the deliveries recently and their associated preorder dates, I'm inclined to also...
Probably right. I was mid-year 23, pushed to end of 23. 8/21 Seattle R1S order. Could be that Rivian is just setting expectations low. But if I'm coming up anywhere near late 23, will just push delivery to 2024 for tax credit, see how it shakes out after March.
