I emailed them and was told I would be able to roll my $1k pre hike deposit into the $3k R1T gen 2 deposit for the Tri. Obviously losing my voucher, but I’m still glad I didn’t buy or lease a gen1.
Look at it this way. They want us off the pot because we’re still shitting, and the diarrhea just landed all over the value and aesthetic of their gen 1 vehicles. It’s a gaslighting expression that we want the “latest and greatest thing” when they’re the ones that had already jumped on the...
My recommendation also. You’re 3 mile old R1T already took a large value smack last week, now it already has drivetrain replacement stained on record.
July 2021 pre price hike reservation. I almost leased a few months back, but after no communication for about 4 weeks after my config was confirmed I lost interest. Then Rivian contacted me about a vehicle ready, only to tell me weeks later it was actually missing several things listed on the...
Upset at the thought of someone getting a newer year vehicle with higher value for the same price or less they paid 2-3 years ago. There’s always some snarky comment about it. But hey, they’re so happy with their vehicle right?…Right? This is one case I’m actually glad my frugality stopped me...
I keep seeing folks compare the refresh to cell phones. So if we’re going to use that analogy, then this is equivalent to Mac ditching Intel and moving forward with M1 processors.
These are pretty big changes. I’d call them massive. I’m honestly glad I didn’t cave pre-refresh and accept delivery because this is exactly what I was wary of. Even with my nearly expired preorder. The price is steep but looks totally worth it. Unfortunately, I think Gen1 vehicles are going to...
This^. These forums are filled with toxic people. That includes future, current, and former owners. Sorting through useful vs useless information is exhausting. Minus the influencer videos you posted, I don’t see why it wouldn’t be legitimate concern. I doubt anything would ever happen. As a...
Yes, same thing for me except its been 2wks (3/22). They said I haven’t been assigned a vin yet. I also have access to the shop again as of 2 days ago for some reason.
I confirmed a shop truck 2 weeks ago. After never hearing anything, I reached out and was basically told the truck didn’t exist. Still in a holding pattern. So, that’s also something to consider. Just bc it’s in the shop doesn’t always mean that it exists either.
It’s in the disclaimer when you confirm configuration that there is no guarantee the PTC will come with the truck at delivery. And may need to be placed at the SC when available.
Oh please. I had plenty of good reasons not to accept delivery. Are you really that miserable dude? Are you drooling at the fact that maybe…just maybe this guy won’t get a cheaper, newer R1 than you? My shit is locked in. If they don’t want to honor it, they’ll simply need to give my deposit...
This is true. I’ve been dragging my feet as with my pre-hike order for about a year, reading a bunch of horror stories on this forum. They’ve been pestering me with calls and emails nonstop for 12 months. I finally confirm a shop truck last week, they tell me I’m not assigned to a vin earlier...
Exact same thing just happened to me. Confirmed configuration on a shop R1 Friday evening. Figured I’d hear something almost immediately which did not happen, so I emailed to inquire. Got a response this morning from CS saying I haven’t been matched with a VIN. Super odd they advertise shop...
