I will be there tomorrow with my expected delivery/Pickup of my R1S. <I'm still in utter shock it's finally happening> I will most certainly ask if and when they anticipate First Mile Drives for the S...my thought is, not anytime soon because there just aren't that many of them. But hopefully...
And.....less than a week since I got the email stating that I had a VIN, I just got this (about an hour ago):
Picking up on Friday at the Service Center. I'm still in shock...no more words right now.
So your 8 steps have been completed at this point, and you have a delivery date?
I was told that once there is a VIN assigned (which I have)...the vehicle is built and now being shipped to CO for final QA steps. Once completed, I will get a delivery date. Once I have an official delivery date...
Thanks again, I'll see how it goes. Do you know if they do refi's?
I know the process (so I've heard is made that much easier when first going thru Rivian Finance and then just doing a refi).
I know I still have time....right now it's the waiting game on my delivery date.
Very nice! Was there last year for the Black Crowes (Rivian-less)...however, our next trip to Red Rocks will be Rivian-full!
Thanks for ur post. Hope ur enjoying the Truck.
Will definitely keep everyone posted. I am not on FB... ;-).
I'm just hammering thru the 8 steps: prob going to go w/ Rivian Insurance (Nationwide). The rate was not only better than State Farm that I've had for years, but it also has more coverage. I got quotes for everything I have...
I will most definitely be giving back to the forum and post first impressions, answer questions, etc. I've gotten so much from what people post it's been great. I plan to pay it forward!
On a side note...my wife got an electric Mini Cooper (fall of 2020) - the interior is identical to OC...
I originally had OC, but as soon as they said that was delayed and would affect dev windows, I switched to BM (I like them both almost equally so didn't mind switching).
I have to assume you got a first half of 2023 delivery window because of OC. But hopefully ur date will be VERY early 2023!
Colorado is in the house now too! Received the below earlier today and I nearly choked on my lunch.....yeah - what a damn great Friday!
So far so good on the 8 step process. Was certainly nice to see a VIN. Wow.
It's happening....it's happening....it's happening. I still can't believe it. I got the below email during lunch today and haven't really been able to focus on anything else since.
VIN assigned, 8 step in progress! It's on......and Happy F'ing Friday.
So....while I broke away from 'work' for a few minutes to grab lunch, I nearly chocked when I got the below email. Needless to say, I cancelled my next meeting and couldn't click the 'Let's Go' button fast enough.
More than 3.5 years of waiting, it's finally happening! I'm still kinda in...
