Surferdude, are you on Oahu? I feel like reservations there will be the first to take official deliveries. Mine still says June/July 2024 (reserved in 2019) but I’m on Kauai and just patiently waiting for Rivian to work out the design flaws and QC issues. Who knows, the longer we wait, we may find some revised federal tax incentives.
If a hybrid or fully electric Tacoma becomes available before my R1T I’m all over it. Serviceability at an on island dealership would be my tipping point.
Yes I'm on Oahu. I've seen a few R1Ts puttin around town but yet to see an R1S. Some have mainland plates, a couple have local plates. Either these people have some unknown secret access to service or they have been lucky and have not had any issues with their vehicles that require service.
I have the same setup. Without solar and batteries (or solar and grandfathered NEM) you will be paying about the same cost to drive a similar gas vehicle as you would the Rivian. Maybe even more.
If this is true and fully sanctioned by Rivian that would be great. But Rivian support told me otherwise.
I’m the El Cap R1T. Also saw a Limestone last week outside of Hanalei heading east, so think there are 2 of us now.
Met a fella, Mark, at Wilcox Hx a few days ago with a Forrest Green R1T. I’ve seen him a few times since in the Lihu’e and Southside areas. I invited him to the forum and Kamaaina Rivian Ohana Club.
