  1. Finished R2 demo test drive? Share your review / impressions

    Wish upstate had one to check out. Alpharetta is just a little too far out of my way.
  2. Finished R2 demo test drive? Share your review / impressions

    This is the only review I’ve read (or watched) that was very negative aside from the common criticisms of the sound system and AC. As someone who has only owned Teslas for the past 8 years I’m actually surprised at some of these comments.

    R2 vs Y Standard RWD $44,990 vs $39,990 Premium AWD $53,990 vs $49,990 Performance $57,990 vs $57,990

    Range not really. Price will hold some people back but I have seen exactly one of the Standard Y in real life. I don’t think it will ever sell well. Difference in premium AWD and R2 AWD isn’t that great and Performance is the same price. Also FSD doesn’t actually matter that much. As good as...

    Old or new Model Y?
  6. R2 Demo Drive Scheduling is LIVE! Anyone book test drive yet?

    It’s actually a freaking amazing vehicle, tainted by politics. Anyone who says it sucks hasn’t driven one or is blinded by hate. I’m tired of middle fingers, I’ve had my fun with it and gotten the big projects I needed a truck for out of the way. Also it’s expensive and right now the resale and...
  7. R2 Demo Drive Scheduling is LIVE! Anyone book test drive yet?

    The've got about 6 months to be sure this doesn't happen again. If it's not an issue, I'm 100% sold on R2. If it is an issue, I'll go back to driving a reliable fun Model 3 Performance. I'm prepping for visit 3 to my service center (2.5 hours away) on my Cybertruck, and I don't want to deal with...
  8. R2 Demo Drive Scheduling is LIVE! Anyone book test drive yet?

    from that reddit post of the dead R2 on the side of the road: "The audio system is FANTASTIC, coming from a 2024 Model Y Premium. MILES ahead of the R1S I once rented."
  9. R2 Demo Drive Scheduling is LIVE! Anyone book test drive yet?

    Unfortunately Duncan SC isn’t a demo location for R2 yet
  10. Finished R2 demo test drive? Share your review / impressions

    I’ll be coming from a Cybertruck which has one heck of a sound system especially after the latest update (wife has a new Y so I also know how good that is) That and FSD will be the hardest parts. I’ll also miss steer by wire specifically from Cybertruck. It’s so nice. Someday I hope it’s...
  11. Rivian Communication RAP1+Lidar

    The order page may not have said so but the Tesla blog post (which they’ve since deleted) did. The website also said “The system is designed to be able to conduct short and long-distance trips with no action required by the person in the driver’s seat.” That line is specifically called out by...
  12. Rivian Communication RAP1+Lidar

    In Kim Java’s R2 video she released today (23:36), she interviewed RJ and he said next gen hardware would “come to the launch R2 by the end of the year”

    Coming in August but those won't be launch editions anymore? I wonder how many launch editions they plan on selling then?
  14. Question about using cruise control while towing

    Was just going to say Kyle showed this in Out of Spec Bits video
  15. Anyone wrapping their R2?

    I know wraps aren't quite as popular on Rivian as on Tesla, especially Cybertruck (probably because Rivian has some cool colors), but is anyone planning to wrap their R2? I'm probably 6 months from buying mine, but I almost have a wrap design done already. Way different from the style I used on...
  16. Coastal Cloud Interior + Additional Exterior Colors Available Aug 2026

    Coastal Cloud being two months away makes it harder to wait for updated autonomy hardware next year
  17. June 9 - R2 order invites, first customer deliveries and demo drives begin!

    I’m in a way glad wife and I both prefer coastal cloud interior because I don’t think I could hold off ordering until new autonomy hardware if CC was available at launch.
  18. June 9 - R2 order invites, first customer deliveries and demo drives begin!

    Can’t wait for Duncan SC to have them for demo drives
  19. R2 non-powered frunk is a mistake?

    When I got my Model 3, I almost never used the frunk. Then I installed a power frunk kit and used the frunk every time I got takeout or went to the store for the next 3 years. Power frunk makes all the difference in how useful it is. Wish R2 (and Model 3/Y) at least offered as a paid upgrade.
  20. AT&T brings 5G connectivity to Rivian R2

    Actually, even without the starlink plan, on newer phones you can still get emergency texts out on other higher satellites, though you have to wait for one to be overhead. It was the only way I was able to text when Hurricane Helene hit here, but my son was the only person I knew who had just...
