My one year anniversary was 12/30. No significant issues but do need to get it in to the Chicago Service Center for a loose window trim piece and a clunky sounding charge port door. It has been a pleasure to drive (longest trip was a round tripper from Chicago to FOCO with no charging issues)...
Received a vmm from JR at Rivian CS. As an R1T Max/Adventure preorder holder (12/19), I can make a āsmallā, yes he said āsmallā, change to my order and switch to the large pack. This would ensure delivery in 2022. Interestingly, JR said I needed to call CS by the end of this week.
I have not...
Dealer mark-up? What is this āvalue addā you speak of? If I recall correctly, one of the underlying premises in the IL Dealer v Direct To Consumer litigation was that dealers protected the consumer from unsavory manufacturers. ;)
Am I the only one fascinated by the fact that they tell the LE preorder holders that non-LE preorder holders will get an email in December. However, they havenāt taken the time to tell non-LE preorder holders that they can expect an email in December. Hopefully they take some of the IPO dollars...
For a $100k preorder, why do I need to ping CS? They know my credit card number, day I prepaid a deposit, my zip code (Chicago area), blah blah blah. Not happy I need to be an advocate for why I should close the deal.
Thanks. Did you need to sign up or did you get an email/other communication from Rivian directly? The reason I ask is that I have nothing from Rivian, preordered 12/19, configured an R1T with Max Pack (so not LE), and live in west suburban Chicago. Just trying to see if the First Mile is for...
Wouldnāt it be great if preorder holders who actually purchased could somehow be classified as an initial investor such that your $1000 deposit is converted into an equivalent/proportional amount of IPO shares. After all, the $80b+/- valuation has a lot to do with our unwavering commitment to...
Same here, Craigins. I am an R1T preorder holder (12/19), but not LE as I want the Max Pack. The configurator shows deliveries beginning Jan ā22. I will let everyone know if I get an invitation to a First Mile Event Tour in Normal, whether it be this month or soon.
You donāt do auto shows for reservation holders, you do it for future buyers so you can thrive. Seems short-sighted not to throw a couple prototypes in the mix. Ford did it in 2019 with the Mach-e. You couldnāt get close to it, but could see it and read about it and ask the rep some questions.
