    Worried about buying a Rivian if the company fails

    I find it amazing we empower and embrace people we don’t know, and take stated facts as real. Influencers, politicians( influencers with zero talents). YouTube or your preferred sell you out for profit platform, is just entertainment and should be viewed as a mind numbing escape from your day...

    It's April 2nd and I'm still waiting for my NACS adapter email!!!

    I ordered a worm hole generator, radar deflecting paint, and Octa motor config and guide has my order in pending status. I did confirm my parts for the time slip package were back in stock so we are making progress. Just got my home cold fusion reactor installed, but damn adapter is still...

    Tesla refusing to buy back Cybertruck or allowing buyer to sell elsewhere

    Rivian did a smart thing by giving existing owners priority for R2. Not previous purchasers, current owners to stop profiteering by creating artificial demand. In any situation as an early adopter, you run risks by not being able to fully vet a product before purchase. I personally agree some...

    Ceramic tint the windshield?

    You thought Rivian windshields were fragile? Picked up a 24 Tundra yesterday, got 63 miles on it before a rock tapped the windshield this morning. Didn't see anything when it happened, parked truck for 30 min only to come back to a 6" crack and growing. My Monday tint appointment turned into a...

    Ceramic tint the windshield?

    Had it done to both Rivian’s, huge difference. Did all windows in vehicle to take load off the AC, was told doing roof could be hit or miss if panel would crack. Not from heat, but quick changes like a rain shower in afternoon, or car wash so didn’t do it. Well worth the money for the comfort...

    would you buy R1T again as of 3/25/2024?

    We personally prefer the T of the S, so much so we are selling our S and have another T on order. I have debated getting another Ram 1500, but as nice as they are even with Rambox option, I just can't give up the secured storage an R1T has, That and some tool in a Ram was being stupid Sat night...

    Rivian for Sale — advice

    If it helps I have a buddy sending my 23 R1S to the Mannheim auction, think it goes on the block next Wednesday. He shows they are going around 80k at auction. We have a QM white/FE 20” wheels 4800 miles. Rivian told me use KBB for trade value which was 80-81k but guide took so long to respond...

    Seventh R2 teaser photo!

    Well everyone, I am signing off from the forum. Sent both my R1's off to auction today, customer support is just not there for me. Congrats to all those who get one in the future, hopefully the internal process match the quality of the vehicles they make by then. Going back to ICE and...

    R2 Price, Specs, Dimensions leaked!! $47500, 0-60 3 sec, 330 miles range

    Trade range estimate, what additional fees beyond taxes and items I can see. Several threads have shown there to be a bigger jump in payment than traditional leases, as I was in the industry and have leased over 15 vehicles, needed this answered. $1000 non refundable before you can ask normal...

    R2 Price, Specs, Dimensions leaked!! $47500, 0-60 3 sec, 330 miles range

    Granted a reveal is a big thing, but I can't even get them to respond to purchasing a shop vehicle. Have tried since the weekend to get two questions answered before I put down a non refundable deposit. I have (2) R1's, trying to lease a T but radio silence on email, text, phone calls. We all...

    R2 Price, Specs, Dimensions leaked!! $47500, 0-60 3 sec, 330 miles range

    Jeep sold 2WD vehicles for a period of time in 2007-2010. CA does not need AWD for most people so I think it is a great option to lower price for those groups in always warm climates.

    Subaru buying Rivian?

    Interesting as Subaru uses Chase for leases as I currently have one.

    Does the R2 actually kill Rivian?

    Capitalism, build it and they will come. If most existing owners were are concerned about Rivian surviving and not burning cash, we should have accepted the March price increase as a necessary evil to ensure a companies success. Every auto mfg has been on the edge of bankruptcy at one point...

    Used Rivian Postings

    We are cutting loose our R1S for another R1T. My buddy says Mannheim MMR is about $80,100 for something like ours with 4600mi on the clock. I expect/hope to see high 70's on a trade from Rivian, glad this one was pre-order pricing.

    New R2 photo (fifth teaser)

    Given there in a new trim level coming out for the R1's, I would think some cost savings will be had with a rugged cloth interior, maybe a washable vinyl floor covering? I am sure the wood and trick layered door panels will be gone, accent lighting part of a package. No speaker optional...

    New Converted Rivian Owner (Previously Owned Every Tesla Model)

    I think it has more to do with the roads than the vehicles. When in Denver you are hard pressed to tell the difference in the ride, but larger cracks just feel different. I think part of it is wife is short and she struggles to put stuff in the back of the SUV, but gear tunnel works great for...

    New Converted Rivian Owner (Previously Owned Every Tesla Model)

    Glad you are enjoying the new R1S. We are going the opposite way as soon as guide gets back to me. Wife has the S and she feels the ride is harsher than in my T, daughter has driven both and agrees as do I. I run same tires, same air pressure, and same suspension settings and it is noticeable...
