  1. My observations from Sonoma Rivian test drive event

    Not to hijack the discussion, but have to agree the wiper controls in the 3/Y are not friendly. (all Teslas to varying degrees) The real trick to them is the wiper button on the stalk. Pressing it to get a wipe or fluid also pops up the wiper setting on the screen so a speed setting or off/auto...
  2. Colin Gatta?

    This is probably legit, since it looks like you're in Puerto Rico. Their hasty deadline passed a few minutes ago and it's outside normal business hours now. You should contact the DSP/ Morgan Stanley people directly and resolve it or send in what they need.
  3. DSP (Directed Share Program) to purchase Rivian IPO shares - now live via web portal

    Tomorrow seems to be the day to confirm the order for shares. Actual IPO date is still not finalized, nor have they released their final prospectus for the IPO. I'm going to guess the IPO will go live Friday or possibly early next week. Your account will need to be funded on the same day of...
  4. Patience

    Hmm…. That could take another 100 years.
  5. Denver service and delivery center update

    Yeah, showrooms are not happening for now. Just service centers and they will have some sales tools at the service centers. We’ll be able to see the paint and interior color samples. Service centers will eventually have a couple vehicles for loaner and test drive purposes. But that’s a long...
  6. Tailgate Capacity Concern

    I’ve been talking to a friend who has been in contact with a guide. Two guides actually as one seems to have taken over for the other. He’s frustrated, the guides know nothing, maybe less than nothing. They are people taking a job who know little about cars or EVs in general and seem to not...
  7. Deposit Envy

    A friend of mine has an early '18 R1T reservation and has already been contacted about delivery and then contacted again this week about delivery getting pushed back -- now saying January, possibly Feb. I never really had envy of his date. I've been on the bleeding edge before. But the wait...
  8. Crate EV Systems announced by ford

    I have a ā€˜67 F100 I want to do an EV restoration of. I’ve looked off and on at picking up a used Model S. Can’t do a salvaged one for several reasons. It just never made sense to go for it. This is exactly what I’ve been waiting for. The F100 concept build at SEMA being used to promote this...
  9. DSP (Directed Share Program) to purchase Rivian IPO shares - now live via web portal

    For those complaining about the 175 share limit, this isn’t unusual. Remember, this is a pre-buy for the IPO that is extended to reservation holders as a perk. When the IPO goes live, we can all buy all the shares we can get ahold of. I think the pre-buy allotment for reservation holders is...
  10. DSP (Directed Share Program) to purchase Rivian IPO shares - now live via web portal

    You have to wait for them to approve your account. Then you can link bank info and finish up to be ready.
  11. Tesla launches a new home charger that works with all electric cars

    I have not looked at the specs on this new unit. If this is a Gen 2 Tesla charger, as others are saying, it should allow installation on up to a 100A circuit for charging up to 80A. That is one benefit of the 1st and 2nd generation Tesla chargers vs. the current Gen 3. Gen 2 also allows for...
  12. 180 R1T produced / 156 R1T delivered as of Oct 31 -- per Updated Rivian S1 [11/1]

    Under promise, over deliver... They will not survive and their stock won't hold any tangible value if it takes them another 2 years to deliver the 55,000 vehicles currently on order. They only need to ramp the R1 line to 40% capacity within the next 6 months in order to fulfill 50K+ R1T/R1S...
  13. Rivian IPO potentially next week. Morgan Stanley is the DSP (IPO) Partner

    Rivian just sent me an email saying to expect IPO info soon. ...From Morgan Stanley, their DSP plan administrator.
  14. Rivian R1T LE Windows Sticker - VIN#102

    There is no MSRP because the price is just the price. That’s what you get when you don’t have a middle-man dealership that can set pricing. Same when you buy a Tesla, just the price. Crash test ratings will be forthcoming. Most new vehicles will not have this info available until the NHTSA...
  15. Rivian tent.

    Not sure if there’s an advantage to ordering the RTT with the truck. Other than the Rivian name printed on it, I don’t think there’s anything different or special about it vs. the same model bought elsewhere. Not planning on one myself as it doesn’t fit my needs. But the wife and I are...
  16. DSP (Directed Share Program) to purchase Rivian IPO shares - now live via web portal

    Once the IPO is approved and info finalized, they will have a prospectus and information on how this will all work. That info should pop up in Rivian accounts for everyone who is eligible.

    Oh, I know all about it. Have been using WeatherTech and Husky liners for years. Have bought many sets for both work and personal vehicles. Have not bought Husky in probably 7+ years, but may consider them if they have any available for the R1T and if reviews are good. I quit buying Husky...

    As for Chilewich mats. Never had any. They look interesting and people seem to like them. I think they compliment the R1T/S very well. I'm undecided on adding Rivian's all weather mats to the order.
  19. Chilewhich

    WeatherTech has been slipping, not sure what's up with them. I have older WT liners that are still as functional and fit as good as the day I bought them, aside from scuffs and ground in dirt. I have newer WT liners that all curl and distort on the edges, don't fit quite right, they're...
  20. Rivian swag received

    I should make a coffee tumbler and carry it around with me just to see if anyone says anything... There's Rivian coffee mugs, HydroFlasks, hoodies, anything you want if you go slumming on Etsy. Just sayin'. It's like the epicenter of trademark violation and abuse Anyway, hope Rivian opens the...
