That's great for your sister's partner! I'm glad they are in the family now. My only point is don't confuse a Rivian used vehicle with a CPO from one of the other big manufacturers. Almost all other CPO cars come with some sort of extended warranty, like BMW for example adds a year to the...
There's no real CPO program (no extended warranty). As I am in the same boat as you, I'm watching all this closely. And from what I've read, there is no difference buying from Rivian than any other source other than inflated pricing . Some have been very disappointed in the quality of the Rivian...
Wow, that's a great job!
I thought I read somewhere that the tailgate has a lot of plastic reinforcement inside, and makes it tough for PDR, but that is perfect.
I cancelled my preorder. Yes, it was only $100, but I have lost interest. My R1S is fantastic, and hopefully I can get the R2 in my hands before the lease extension ends.
The R2 would be a perfect platform to introduce a nice cloth seating material, the shots of the new seats look kinda cheap. I'm also not a fan of today's pleather. I'd prefer real leather, or cloth. Some manufacturers are doing a real nice wool material. To me, a nice cloth could also eliminate...

I have Limestone now, and am hoping to find a Launch Green with low miles. I actually have a Launch Green R1S with 19,000 miles being shipped to my local Carmax. But with the East Coast storms, that still may be a couple weeks out. I have until the end of March to secure a replacement.
I have about $200 of negative equity tacked on to my lease each month from trading my Tesla. I don’t have any desire to hand chase an extra $200 each month for nothing. I asked about removing that since it will be paid off, and they don’t adjust lease payments in the extension. That’s why I’ll...
That’s my guess too.
I have a day 1 R2 preorder, but I’m figuring that it is a year out at least. Just want to ridge the gap with a used R1, and I might as well get a color I want. Heck I might not even like the R2 once I get to see it in person.
