Pre-Price Hike
Ordered in mid 2021 .. increased to more $$ package in Jan 2022 "supposedly to expedite delivery" .. lived thru the increase then reset pricing fiasco .. was told in Apr 2022 that my R1S would be delivered in 1st half of 2023 .. a few months ago I was sent the "not sure if its...
Got the email this morning, but it's like receiving a swimsuit in the North Pole ...
My R1S is still in "Processing Estimate" coma and w/ no planned service centers or locations in the Carolinas anytime soon, I'm guessing I'll be in there for a while ..
At this pace, my "Confirmed" order will...
I've been wondering the same thing.
Just added a Volvo EX90 reservation to my Hummer EV SUV reservation .. at this point, whichever comes in first is what we'll get. If Rivian deliveries are halted and fail to materialize in NC/SC, then one of the others it will be. .. frustrating!
Thanks, but I assure you that there are no rose colored glasses here.
That's why I pointed out that the fact that Lucid was able to deliver a car to me (and supposedly be able to Service it) despite having a SC farther away than 2 Rivian SC's should not be used to infer that the Lucid model is...
Not sure which email that is from .. btw, don't disagree w/ changes negatively impacting a delivery
but the email I received (attached) made it clear that proximity to Service Centers was a determining factor for delivery schedule .. and, in my email, "Processing Estimate" is basically letting...
I hear you (about possible legislation in place to prevent sales/service by direct-to-consumer companies).
However, the Rivian decision (to select Georgia instead of NC) was made in Feb/Mar. So, when they sent me the April email with a scheduled delivery of 1st half 2023, they already knew...
Not sure what "protectionist" laws are still in place in NC.
Tesla fought that battle 7 years ago and I've had no problem purchasing a Tesla direct from Tesla.
More recently (May 2022) I ordered a Lucid Air GT and it was delivered in Sept. 2022 with no problems whatsoever.
I've also seen a...
This will be the last time I dwell on this, but my status "Processing Estimate", is beyond irritating and disappointing. After all the hoops (more detail in previous post: FrustrationPost ), and a delivery schedule notification in April 2022 (attached), I received this "indefinite" status with...
The last time I changed my configuration was in January (2022) when I was told that if I added the more expensive package (Adventure) and didn't ask for Ocean Coast interior (I have black mountain) I'd be given an earlier delivery date. In April I was told my delivery was scheduled for the...
Attaching the email I received... this is how I found out that proximity to SC overrides order date, price/packages, etc. .. even though R1Ts have been delivered in and around my city ... ?
All I can say is that after 1+yrs of routing for Rivian and the R1S .. I/we Feel betrayed.
"My...
Placed my Order for an R1S in July 2021. Went through the same circus as others, i.e.
"upgrade package to get earlier delivery date",
"delivery date expected any day now",
"fiasco w/ price increase scare then decrease based on blowback",
"confirm order & sign purchase agreement" to secure...
