  1. Let's remove the Conserve Mode stigma

    Something to consider is battery cycles. If you do a large number of long trips, you are accumulating additional battery wear and additional charging costs, which cumulatively does add up
  2. Let's remove the Conserve Mode stigma

    Rivian said that the dual motor will switch to one motor automatically on highway. From testing others have done on this forum is a large part of the difference between dual and quad EPA numbers. Therefore for everybody who is avoiding use of conserve because of tire wear, I don't see why...
  3. Thank You to All R1S Owners Before Me!

    Second, or third that!
  4. Rivian executive acknowledges R1S AC noise problem

    Any idea when this was resolved in production? Would be a good reference point, it if we knew what vins are seeing the issue
  5. Bent Hood Hinges?

    Is there any way to visibly tell if they are bent? would add that to my pre-delivery inspection
  6. requiring payment more than 24 hours before pickup

    Update - Spoke with my guide and apparently it's due to Rivian not having a license to sell vehicles in Pennsylvania. In the event delivery is rejected, they'll just match to a new vin on the lot or to a new vin at the factory.
  7. requiring payment more than 24 hours before pickup

    Despite the 8 steps saying I can upload a picture of a cashiers check (which is what I've been planning for) my guide just told me that I have to either overnight a cashier check to arrive before the 29th, or pay through the entire amount for the car online by the 29th or they will cancel...
  8. R1S Shop access live with lots of inventory!

    Had the exact same issue. Ordered from the shop on 7/7 and through the system said I could schedule delivery, but a day later the service center messaged and said that it was still at the factory. Arrived in NY today and picking up on the 31st.
  9. Shipping time estimates from Normal?

    How have the communications gone for you? Got a 145xx from the shop on 7/7 and didn't get any dates from guide or an email that it was leaving the factory, then got a text from the delivery center on Friday to schedule pickup anytime after the 28th (Brooklyn). Seemed odd to not get the email and...
  10. R1S Shop access live with lots of inventory!

    Got a text this afternoon from the Brooklyn center that the car should arrive mid next week, so looks like I'll be getting it in a little over a week
  11. R1S Shop access live with lots of inventory!

    that's interesting - might ping my guide and see if they have any insights.
  12. R1S Shop access live with lots of inventory!

    What the?? We picked up a shop vehicle with 145xx vin 2 weeks ago and afaik it's still at the factory. Has me a little concerned that there's an issue or something holding it up
  13. Anyone regret not getting underbody shield

    Good question! Would be good to hear if any damage was sustained by the riv.
  14. Anyone regret not getting underbody shield

    Really appreciate the responses everybody! Going to keep the current configuration and looking forward to hearing when it arrives in the Brooklyn service center to pick up.
  15. Anyone regret not getting underbody shield

    That's the other thing I'm considering. I picked up an AP which means it didn't include the wheel upgrades, and hearing people recently getting LEs from the shop, wondering if I pulled the trigger too quickly
  16. Anyone regret not getting underbody shield

    We are locked in for a shop R1S with everything we were looking for EXCEPT the underbody shield - Limestone, OC, 20. Waffling a little bit on the decision - we live in the northeast so corrosion is always a thing - the most offroad we do thus far is campgrounds and some service trails, but...
  17. Latest VIN check R1S. What is the real production rate...

    have almost the exact same build except the standard 20's. I haven't heard from my guide yet, I see them assigned in the site but they haven't reached out to me. Oddly enough I got a text from the lead at the brooklyn center that said they're waiting for the car to arrive so have no clue when to...
