This is/was my biggest concern (maybe #2 next to the out of pocket cost of repairs) and the reason I recently gave in and bought a tesla. You want me to go to the service center and wait for them to open so I can ask a question? Really? - that's easier said than done. I don't know about the...
I'm so glad I can get that feature rather than Captain's chairs or an easily maneuverable second row bench or a retractable sun shade that actually blocks the light or, I don't know useful stuff for real people
I think your disappointed that the price is going up is that correct? If so then I would agree. I feel like this makes the vehicle feel more out of reach when the top of the line tri motor starts STARTS at $105k. I personally don't need 800hp but I would like access to the premium trim. But...
If you're comparing gas to electric with home charging, don't forget to factor in the 10, 20, or even 30 minutes it takes to drive to a gas station and fill up the car vs two minutes to plug in after I park at home. Or at work if you have that option.
So the reason to buy the current R1 is that they are offering discounts but honestly, I'm not seeing that. Am I missing something? Or is it just the 3% discount that I get for being a pre-order customer? I guess that's better than nothing but certainly not incentivizing me to jump on a...
I've been on the fence on closing the deal with my reservation for a while now and have it stuck in my head that I don't want an EV that DOESN'T have the NACS charging port built in. As folks are finally receiving their adapters (has anyone received an adapter?), I'm curious - am I overvaluing...
Did that say 2004 4runner or 2018? shucks. still on the fence. Probably not moving until something has a built in NACS. And affordable repairs . . . so maybe never.
Rivian fa
Completly agree, this is silly and there's plenty of time to fix it. When I saw it, I thought I was looking at a mirror image or maybe a European model and the drier was on the right. Feels like a big whiff on the part of Rivian. Forget about tesla, it's just an inconvenient...
Forget the wheelbase, who wants to bet that starting price is a typo as well . . . Or at the very least, starting price coupled with top end specs.
There are no accidents.
I'm sure I'll get pummeled for this but, honestly, how many people are off roading? Be honest. Probably a outsized number of folks on this forum, sure. But I'd bet that Rivian pretty thoroughly tapped that market of people who go off roading and can also afford a $80K car. I''d bet that a...
Sorry, @SANZC02 I wasn't speaking to you directly but maybe more to the folks on some of the "Cross Shopping" posts. I did try to explain my use case which I think is a fair cross shop. Three car seats in a car without second row captains chairs (Model X) appears to be best handled by putting...
Certainly fair assessment, $80K is a lot, not out of reach but more than I had thought I would be paying for my next car . I think this comes down to more my attitude towards cars and really any purchase. I've driven my last vehicle for almost 15 years and I'd like to do the same with my next...
So this is another topic I love on this forum - people telling me that I have no business shopping for a Rivian because I'm not using it for off roading. I think that its reasonable to cross shop a tank and a bicycle if the job to be done is getting from point A to point B. You then break down...
I completely agree with everything OP has said. I rented an R1S on Turo and had the same disappointment with the manual setas and how difficult theya re to use. Lets all stop rpetending that the third row of any vehicle is comfortable for adults other than a full size suburban or similar or a...
