My test drive got cancelled as well yesterday. Now I understand why :-(. Thanks for starting this thread. Dealers and politics always frustrating ?.

@sevengroove - Thanks for the pictures. I reached the Bellevue Service Center a couple hours after you. They did not let me into the premise but one of the employees was kind enough to get a LA Silver R1T to the customer parking lot and let me take pictures, get in to get the look and feel. I...

Checked my email this evening and was surprised to see an email asking me to confirm the configuration. Scheduled a call with my guide to just find out if the XPEL wrap is an option for me at the factory. If not, no worries will follow what @Tim@XPEL has suggested and get it done with a local...

I'd suggest that you let the service center know about it and tell them to reimburse it. That will make them let them technicians not do that route. I have seen so many R1Ts and EDVs roam around in that area in Bellevue and I always assumed it was the SC folks doing a validation drive after a...

Probably they can deliver some non-LEs as well it looks like.

Got the email with updated delivery timing. Aug to Sept 2022. Pre order was placed in Sept 2019. R1S LE with Launch Green + Black interior as the current configuration. Will check with the guide (when assigned) about the other color options and the potential corresponding delays associated...

I started reading the email with no expectations. Surely I wasn't disappointed ??. Glad that they are transparent about the early builds going to their employees. That way, in the quarterly results we don't get shocked looking at each other and wondering 'who is getting all the R1Ss?'.

On my Model X, the factory provided mesh cloth wasn't holding back the heat to the extent I would like so I ordered this from Amazon and cut it to size to use along with the factory mesh to hold it. Blocks all the heat and pretty cool inside. Used some spread-out binder clips to hold it in...

The truck looks awesome. Have a great time with it and enjoy !! Cheers !! I did full body PPF for my Model S primarily because I was using it on the freeway and wanted to safe it from little rocks on the freeway. Till the day I sold it, it looked like new even after 44K miles and 3.5 years...

A neighbor of mine just got an R1T Truck in Launch Green. It's so beautiful. Immediately went to the configurator and changed my R1S LE to Launch Green :-). The color looks good in person IMHO.

I hadn't finalized my selection especially when there was no deadline to finish the final configuration given that I have a R1S order with no ETA yet. An artificial deadline has been cooked up by Rivian due to the price bomb last week. It's not fair for only my selected draft options to be...

My take. They have their quarterly financial reporting on March 10th. Possibly their top priority is to reinstate all the cancelled reservations as that will be something they have to address in the call. There will be questions on this and they would prefer that count to be low especially with...

Last night before I went to bed thinking if RJ and team are just like Trevor Milton's (Nikkola trucks). I had this intuition that Rivian probably wants to focus on commercial vehicles like the Amazon van and cutoff the consumer market offerings. Was thinking what was their long term plan...

Very true. Their ACTIONS spoke louder than words !!! Thank you Folks !

I wanna give a shoutout to EVERYONE in this forum who spoke out, voiced your displeasure to customer support, Twitter, Reddit, FB and every other forum out there. I am glad that Rivian heard us loud and clear and reversed the decision. On twitter, I had asked RJ 'You said it was all about the...

How I wish the BMW X7 was an EV :) !

No one wants to sell a product below cost unless you are like AMZN or Samsung you do that to capture the market share. They did that with the Kindle and Samsung TVs about 6 or 7 years ago. Certainly Rivian is not gonna do that to capture market share. I have ready Elon's biography and when...

Absolutely right. It's emotional coz many folks in this forum have invested their time over the last three years based on a promise of delivery. We invested money early on and placed a preorder. Dreamt about these vehicles. Cheered on for Rivian. We were excited when the colors were announced...

Rivian got the reservations with an attractive pricing. In my case, the initially quoted $70K was less than the Model X at that time ($79K base model). Went ahead and placed the pre-order in 9/2019. About a year later, they announced the Launch edition at $77K and I still thought that it was...

Holding on to the IPO shares and twice bought more shares once in the $ 90s and another in the $ 60s. In it for the long haul.
