Congrats on your new R1S! I also have it in Forest Green with the 21 inch wheels; you'll love it. Quick question for you (not to hijack your thread): I'm driving from Marin County to Portland next month. How did you find the I-5 charging infrastructure on your trip?

I like the rear screen improvements! Perfect for my 15 and 13 year olds.

I haven't read this entire thread to see if anyone else has the same thoughts as me, but I may stick with EAs and RANs for a while to let the dust settle. If anything, maybe the non-Tesla charging centers will be a little less busy as Rivian and Ford owners flock to the Tesla SCs. I'll be...

I think it’s very unlikely that Apple would buy Rivian. As a mature, publicly-traded company, Apple’s stock price is a function of the market‘s perception of Apple’s future earnings. If Rivian were to become a wholly-owned subsidiary of Apple, that perception would take a hit over the short to...

I know I'm stating the obvious here, but with all of the euphoria over the R2, R3 and R3X over the past week, let's not forget that Rivian needs to sell a whole lot of R1's over the next couple of years! Rivian is having to walk such a fine line here. I know of one friend who is really excited...

They would have my $100 if they did that!

I'm in the same boat. I've got SO much work I actually have to get done today, and it's just not getting done.

So essentially, the base model R2 is going to be a single-motor, non all-wheel drive SUV with a published range of less than 270 miles. There certainly will be a market for this, though, but I wonder if they'll sell more of that model or a two-motor all-wheel drive with 300 miles.

If you own a R1S like I do and are like me, you watched the announcement today more out of curiosity and hopefulness for Rivian's future, as I don't need an R2 - the R1S fills that need for my family. But then, here comes the R3 and the R3X out of left field. Our other car is a 10-year old BMW...

I agree. I'm surprised at the people who have no idea what Rivian is. I wouldn't be surprised if Rivian is planning on revamping its advertising strategy with the release of the R2. I suspect the R2 will be a little less "adventurous" and a bit more mass market, targeting a slightly different...

I live in the SF Bay Area, where there are a lot of Rivians and a lot of people who know of Rivian and express interest in Rivian. I was as my 13-year old son's flag football game this afternoon, and as I turned into the parking lot, I realized that I was one of four Rivians (one T and 3 S's)...

To the point that all car manufacturers, not just Rivian, are experiencing headwinds, a closely-monitored industry metric is the seasonally-adjusted annual rate (SAAR) of new vehicle sales. Traditionally, a level of 17 million was considered a healthy market. That took a dive during the...

Excellent point and a great reminder!

I want to start my post by saying that over the last week, I've fallen back in love with my R1S all over again (and, I had probably fallen out of love with it). I love the new suspension tweaks - All Purpose - Moderate seems to be what I've been looking for. Additionally, as I write this, my...

Unfortunately (as I imagine you know), the recent CPI and PPI prints were higher than anticipated. Inflation can be crazy difficult to kill, and I don't think the Fed is going to aggressively cut rates until it's confident that its 2% target is close.

I don't know if it's just me, but I was shocked after installing the widget (iOS 17 / iPhone 13) yesterday at how responsive - bordering on instantaneous - my R1S locked and unlocked when tapping the appropriate button on the widget. I woke up this morning and tested out again - instantaneous...

This. There are a lot of Subaru folks who are just itching to buy the right EV. The Model Y isn't it, yet. It just needs to be a bit more rugged and outdoorsy.

I took possession of my R1S on 9/16/23. On the Vehicle tab in the Rivian iOS app, when I tap on Energy>History to view all of my past charging sessions, it shows that I had 8 separate charging sessions at home in the month of August, beginning on August 21st. That’s not possible, of course...

I for one have always loved the headlights and the entire front end. So many trucks and SUVs and even some cars have such menacing, aggressive-looking fronts, and I think the Rivian's front end is a breathe of fresh air. It's like the front is smiling at me, and the headlights are a big part...

I bet it's simply or primarily the R2 launch. If the primary purpose of the event was to begin selling the R1 in the rest of the world, with a focus on Europe, they would likely have chosen a place other than Laguna Beach.
