  1. Finance vs. Lease the R2 -- the math

    How much do we think R2X will be? $70k? Very pricey. R1 territory.
  2. R2 Orders / VIN / Deliveries List Tracker + Stats 📊

    What this shows is the vast majority of people ordered on the first day they could, with very few others sprinkled in.
  3. R2 Roof Sun Shade

    I would just like to point out the R2 roof does have an aluminum coating that reflects UV and IR. I would not tint the roof knowing that fact. Ceramic absorbs heat, not good with the laminated aluminum roof already. 19:05 minute mark
  4. Interior Color Question for any Rivian Owners

    Coastal Cloud is available in August per the R2 configurator. No reason to jump for black interior right this moment, assuming (proverbial) you even have an order invite to place today. August is only 45 days away. I also think the black interior with black headliner will make it feel cramped...
  5. Finance vs. Lease the R2 -- the math

    It actually does. It has aluminum coating in it to reflect UV and IR, per Max Koff Chief Engineer. 19:05 minute mark
  6. Finance vs. Lease the R2 -- the math

    I explained it already in the below (above) post. Gas prices lag crude oil prices; crude prices are the best indicator obviously of future gas prices. Your graph also is only the last year when gas prices were low. Expand the graph out to 5 years: www.oilprice.com Brent and WTI have...

    The photo with 38" - where did you measure that too? Must be short bc a set of golf clubs with bag is minimum 50"

    The R1 is probably the biggest frunk I've ever seen and rightfully so as it is a huge vehicle. So R1 owners are a little bit spoiled in that regard, so it depends on what your frame of reference is. The Model 3/Y have great frunk space especially for the size of the vehicle, but they're no R2...
  9. Finance vs. Lease the R2 -- the math

    www.oilprice.com Brent and WTI have retreated heavily over the last few weeks from their highs of $110ish down to $80ish today. Pre-war they were in the $65ish range and that was when gas was cheap. They hit $110 in 2022 also, and then were in the $80s and $90s in 2023 and 2024. Only started...
  10. Borealis & Coastal Cloud Coming Sooner Than Expected!!! (September & August)

    Where did they say late 2027 now? I've seen late 2026 and early 2027.
  11. Finance vs. Lease the R2 -- the math

    Gas prices are tanking and will continue to tank though over the next few months.
  12. R2 Launch Edition expectations

    I see this the other way around. The performance trim is and will be $57,990 even after the LE is gone. The LE gives you extra benefits you won't get once it just the normal performance trim, hence the point of it - it's a "good deal". Matches up perfectly with the Model Y performance price too.

    No idea how old everyone is on this forum but it is likely a generational gap thing. People from age 25 to 75 could be buying this car likely.

    Negative. Full set of golf clubs so it must be 50" wide or so. This is a big deal for me personally as it takes a set of golf clubs out of the trunk space (my wife and I both play)...
  15. R2 outside financing

    Never experienced this in any auto or house loan I've ever had in my life personally. But good to know!
  16. Interior Color Question for any Rivian Owners

    I'm so over black interiors as a Tesla owner for 5+ years now. My wife's sunscreen shows like crazy in it and it's insane to keep clean and also hot af. I'd rather wipe it down and have a little "ignorance is bliss" vs. having it stare at me the entire time bc it's white sunscreen on black...
  17. Self drive and current R2

    Yeah I said eff it and am getting the LE. If the current hardware can do what Tesla is doing now, which they said it can, then that's all I need. I'll call it L2+. I am also VERY skeptical of any OEM promising L3 or L4 on any hardware at any time until someone actually does it. And if they...
  18. Active/ adaptive headlights

    Matrix on premium and performance (and thus LE too), not on standard trim.
  19. Finished R2 demo test drive? Share your review / impressions

    My biggest concern is I have Tesla solar panels and Powerwalls already. I hope the R2 can one day interface with the Tesla equipment to give me another 88 kWh of backup...that would be huge. Tesla doesn't even offer it though except on Cybertruck so who knows.
  20. R2 outside financing

    The term of the loan doesn't really matter. You can pay ahead any time you please. To each his own though.
