Can we start waving???

[DrBad]

Second this!

Long time Jeep owner and I always used the peace sign rather than a wave, which is what I still do occasionally with my Rivian. How about ?, haha. I don't think it matters, any acknowledgment is cool.

i usually honk, but it being Rivian nobody can hear me.

seriously though, too many Rivians in colorado. I try to wave to all but may need to adopt a policy of only waving to fellow yellows. Sorry to the rest of the plebes

i would wave at a “fellow yello” too…endangered species! Haha

Sure, but then we wouldn't have had the opportunity to discuss pragmatics on the Rivian forums.

Haha, yes!

Fellow Rivian drivers ... can we please start waving to each other when we pass on the road? =)

Since we have no Carplay.... let's just start being nice to each other and wave as we pass =)

We Airstreamers wave to each other whenever we cross roads… ?

Maybe one day, each rivian will be aware of each other and automatically 'wink' to each other by blinking one of the headlight led rings when passing by ??

Up in the Vail Valley I've had my R1T for three years this month, and now - finally - there are two more that I see on a regular basis, and each of us waves every single time. My wife says Beaver Creek has one in their maintenance department, but I've never seen it, and since it's part of Vail Resorts I'm not sure if I could force myself to wave anyway...

It’s the dumbest part of owning a Jeep…with the ducks a close 2nd. I won’t be waving (unless I know you)

I always wave at any Rivian I see. I get a wave back 50% of the time. Its just nice

One lady at a area stop & shop (grocery store) parking lot, I shouted...."Hey! Love your truck!" and she shouted back the same ?
TBH it made my afternoon

I think Rivian should create a way that one headlight could "wink" as a greeting

 

[T_Bond@Hawaii]

I think a ? would be cooler…and at least more original.

I’m advocating for the Rivian “wink”. 2 flickers of your highbeams. Also if you drive an R1S step your game up. 90% don’t wink back and I just look like some crazed maniac trying to say hi! lol

I wound up behind an R1S the other day. Rivians are uncommon in my town (despite being not terribly far from the mothership in Normal). I flashed my brights but didn't get a response. No offense taken--it's easier to see a wave when passing than when waiting at a light. But, yeah, I always try to greet other Rivians--there are still few enough of us that the camaraderie is appreciated. I look forward to the day that our vehicles are a yawn--my RIVN will be way more valuable!

Me too! I can go more than a week without seeing another Rivian on my central Oregon coast town. I always wave when I see another Rivian but the responses now are not the same when I first got my R1S 2 years ago. I agree it is fun and friendly and feels like we're in a club lol. Keep up the waves for those of us rural Rivian folk who don't see like kind as often
