  1. R1S from R1 Shop Delivered - Details and Thoughts

    Here you go - am I missing something important? Again, I am not particularly sensitive to this issue. Thank you for perfectly illustrating my point! ?
  2. R1S from R1 Shop Delivered - Details and Thoughts

    After Rivian decided to not make the RC/FE that I confirmed in September my guide briefly had an opportunity to match me with something with BM, but my wife was against it so we went into "processing", lost the $7500 tax credit, and selected a FG/FG from the Shop when we were given access in...
  3. Service Center Cautionary Tale (or perhaps my mistake)

    Similar situation with Lexus - they turn off the headlights and parking sensors when you go in for service, don't tell you, and don't turn then back on. My wife nailed a parking bollard after picking up her car because of that and the autobody repair place said "you must have just had it...
  4. Has any R1S Ocean Coast made it into production line?

    I'm pretty sure I saw someone with a R1S OC reservation and expected delivery in March/April saying they had been given shop access and found their "exact configuration". None of the shop vehicles shared in screen snaps have had OC though.
  5. Radar Detector hardwire, who has done it?

    Not quite: Washington State Legislature Section 46.37. 410 states that no person can operate a motor vehicle with any nontransparent material (including signs and posters) on the front windshield that obstructs the driver's clear view of the road In fact "Good to Go!" passes for HOV and HOT...
  6. 2018 & 2019 R1S Pre-orders still waiting for delivery

    Ooh - not so fast - there are multiple levels of sOOn (think Dante). I selected a R1S from the Shop last week, completed 7 of the steps (money's gone from my account - man THAT was fast) and I'm now at the next sOOn:
  7. R1S Shop invite received ? Get yours?

    Well...my guide actually tried to match me to a vehicle back in September but Tony ChatGPT said on the AMA they were going to produce FE in 4th Q so I stayed with that and...they decided not to make it...then "processing". So I told him I'd take anything to get it in 2022 (tax incentive) and he...
  8. R1S Shop invite received ? Get yours?

    Got my invite yesterday - selected FG/FE with 20" Darks (no shield). This is close enough to my (originally) preferred RC/FE which they decided not to produce and my wife likes the green.
  9. R1S Shop invite received ? Get yours?

    Yes - just got the same and confirmed!
  10. Another tough month

    Interesting article - I generally feel that Seeking Alpha is fair - but I think the writer totally whiffed on why Tesla is off so much - it doesn't really have to do with the "EV" market.
  11. Munro R1S interior review: "Closing Gaps and Crushing Knees."

    That was quite a nothingburger - a bit surprised that Munro would dilute their competency with that.
  12. R1S : Oct-Dec Delivery (Now Jan-Feb or Feb-Mar 2023)

    There was a change back in September and Guides no longer have visibility into assignments, nevermind influence. As least that's what MY Guide is telling me :)
  13. R1S big butt - is it an issue for owners

    I strongly prefer the squared design - my primary use of the back is for transporting a dog and I hate with a passion the sloped roof designs.
  14. Got a new fun EV! (Not a Rivian)

    We only recently watched "Long Way Up" but it sure made the Livewire look like fun!
  15. My taste is not popular

    The Tableu-powered dashboard is super helpful at surfacing what Rivian is actually building and when. Something that - staggering as it may seem - they are unable to communicate themselves to their customers.
  16. My taste is not popular

    Agreed. The worst part is, they asked me to "confirm" my configuration - arrange financing - they were building it! Which I did. Then they decided not to build it and told me I have to wait until next year to maybe - if I guess right - pick something they want to build.
  17. No winch (yet?) what is the alternative

    All of the usual suggestions are above - receiver mount, kinetic strap (and travel with a friend or expect someone to come along), manual come along. You'll need more...shackles, tree saver, perhaps a pull pal / anchor depending on where you go. Also, you might consider whether you will want to...
  18. R1S Adventure delivering soon? Just received email: "Prepare for the Digital Purchasing Process"

    Ah - well at that time (last month) it meant that he tried to get me matched to an R1S that they were actually producing. We went around and around...I was able to accept almost any configuration as long as it didn't have BM. And...he could only do BM. I think it was kind of like they had an...
