Rivian needs to have a "Donate Button" on their home page :)
If they did that, imagine how many hysterical posts speculating dire financials. If they do, they should do it on 4/1/2025.

So I’m pissed at Rivian. I received a shipment notification about my NACS adapter arriving next Tuesday. Why am I upset?
  • It’s not because the adapter doesn’t come in a robust choice of colors.
  • It’s not because the adapter doesn’t double as a hand vac.
  • It’s not because the adapter makes my ass look big.
  • It’s not even because the adapter effing doesn’t have CarPlay.
I am upset because they are sending this free of charge with free shipping. I am upset at Rivian for sending these to us free of charge when they are at a pivotal point in the evolution of their business for which cash flow is of paramount importance.

Yeah, one can take the short sighted stance that it’s good because it’s free. I personally think that is a 14er-sized pile of bullshit (Google “14er” in relation to mountains in Colorado, and no, no other place has 14ers, right COdogman?).

I am going to call Rivian and ask them to charge me. So now is the time to tag this post with spurious, caustic little laugh emojis, the kind that I use too often!!

Damn, I feel better!! ❤‍? Got to get back to my Kevlar macramé YouTube tutorials.

Nah, just donate some cash to Rivian and be happy. Or you can simply buy their stock, which is effectively the same thing.

LOL

I seem to recall that when I purchased the Rivian there was a commitment by Rivian to provide access to the Tesla Superchargers by way of an adapter. I understood that it was part of the purchase of the vehicle.
As I was making a long trip where there were very few chargers (to Canada and not staying on the TransCanada highway) so purchased an adapter when it was obvious my promised adapter would not arrive on time. I have been advised that my adapter from Rivian should be arriving soon so if anyone wants a perfectly good adapter, just let me know.

Oh, I am quite serious about calling them to ask them to charge me.
You are going to waste their time? You know that's valuable resource, too, don't you?
