  1. No real AM or FM radio in the R2

    I’ll take the under on that one
  2. Anyone have R2 highway driving range to share? (I'm sure the color you picked looks great)

    Chinese based sodium ion I believe are now going into production CELLS at least that report 330-350wg/kg. That will be quite the step change
  3. Anyone have R2 highway driving range to share? (I'm sure the color you picked looks great)

    If you make the vehicle and driving style adjustments with ABRP, additional weight, driving style, driving speed delta to other drivers, max speed, real true battery degradation inputs it can be VERY accurate. I’ve been using it >5 years now and find it lands within 1-2% accuracy and nearly...
  4. R2 production at nearly 2,000 (VIN) units already

    Ramping production while maintaining quality is normally a smooth curve with limited step function. You just proved out the Maths with your data points.. 400-600 now (my esimtate) Six months to EOY ~ 100 per month increase / 25/week increase ba dah bing ba dah boom - 1000 / week by end of year.
  5. Cancelling my Pre-order, thoughts inside from test drive

    I actually do think that google purposely doesn’t enable all these elements into google maps for reasons that aren’t specifically technical. But police reporting even in google maps Vs. Waze is quite a bit different, deprecated and less useful. For example, it’s just a pin on the map (if it’s...
  6. Cancelling my Pre-order, thoughts inside from test drive

    But it’s actually really not.. there are so many features inherent in Waze that are not ported or in the API from google maps. but it would never be a deal breaker for me.
  7. R2 production at nearly 2,000 (VIN) units already

    Not to split hairs, but I had projections closer to 2700-3000 by now.. and they may actually be? Ppl are getting assigned VIN, but we don’t know the BUILD date yet? Do we? My estimate/guestimate was ~ 1500-1700 to employees and ā€œothersā€, and weā€˜re through that and seeing pretty limited still...
  8. Who HASN'T been invited to order with an early reservation?

    Day 1 minute 13 no Rivian no email to order. I’m SORT of ok with it as I’d like to see some more detailed reviews and testing from the usual suspects before actually ordering. There are still a few things to be ironed out.
  9. TOP WINDOW SOLAR SHADE

    Nice! you know this im sure, but technically one usually uses the windscreen visors flipped down to hold the sun Shield in place? That might certainly help with the first, black version. White out is always best of course.
  10. R2 Orders / VIN / Deliveries List Tracker + Stats šŸ“Š

    YOU WIN.. that is the fastest delivery turn around date mentioned!
  11. Anyone have R2 highway driving range to share? (I'm sure the color you picked looks great)

    I want to put together the proper reply here, but I just have to say THIS IS AN AWESOME THREAD!… it has literally EVERYTHING. We’ve got EV efficiency, we’ve got EV ECONOMY, we’ve got EV logistics, we’ve got CHARGING logistics & dynamics, and TRAVELING logistics. Weā€˜ve got VEHICLE variances...
  12. Esker Silver R2 finally marketed by Rivian! Hi-res official images (Updated With More)

    the history of the Silver car color is a fun and interesting one. In the gentleman era of auto racing, early 1900’s, colors were assigned BY COUNTRY. France was blue, think Bugatti blue or Alpine, Italy was RED (Rosso Corsa or Racing Red), UK was Forest Green, think Jaguar green and Aston...
  13. R2 Orders / VIN / Deliveries List Tracker + Stats šŸ“Š

    It seems a bit odd, that as of now there are so few actual delivery DATES, a the majority are >7/15/26? Or later? I would have thought some of these early order recipients would have really been getting R2 buy at latest end of the month of June, assuming they had banked some production.. Maybe...
  14. R2 Orders / VIN / Deliveries List Tracker + Stats šŸ“Š

    Or it could be the charger and adaptors if you are in a state where they are required to be delivered.. which well TX, not sure.
  15. LUCID cutting 18 percent of staff

    In my own little way I helped get these guys during the ramp of the transition from Atieva to Lucid, when they shifted from making batteries to designing their first car When they were in Menlo ParK.. and there was some nice $$ to be made during the pandemic for sure After they were public. Can...
  16. Finance vs. Lease the R2 -- the math

    Its still JUST a DEDUCTION, not a CREDIT.. so you will only save on taxes to the extent of your EFFECTIVE tax rate.. so will be certainly less than ones MARGINAL tax rate. If you have a larger loan with more interest expense, you're only getting ~ 10-20% of the finance amount in taxes saved...
  17. Did something change in the Halo (scroll) wheels?

    True. And since they are haptics, they can be adjusted specifically for whatever situation they want. So, I would imagine at rest, in Park they might be more responsive and while driving with wheel turn occurring, etc, they are down regulated someone to reduce unintentional inputs, or to...
  18. Home Wall Charger

    That’s interesting. I have Heard and read that both gen 1 and gen 2 with current NACS Rivian do not work but maybe Rivian has figured out the communication path to sync with those 5 to 8-year-old Mobile chargers. Once I get an R2 or my local neighbor in the next couple weeks I’ll give it a try.
  19. Finished R2 demo test drive? Share your review / impressions

    There is almost certainly a loaded maps database that is frequently updated with SW updates, but the real time data, traffic of course, street closures, construction etc. are real time and require some connection.
  20. Home Wall Charger

    Either tesla wall charger, or only GEN 3 Mobile charger will work.
