So we encourage you to join (or start) special-interest and regional-based Rivian clubs at: https://www.rivianforums.com/forum/group-categories/clubs-groups.1/
That plan is supposed to be made "public" sometime in January. At least they've started deliveries in the more interesting part of CanadaWith the forum? Itās a nice forum. one of the least worst vehicle specific forums Iāve been on. and I have too much free time
Iāve driven an R1T. Itās a very good product. Iāve met and talked to various people from Rivian all of them great and enthusiastic.
however, whoever is driving mid-high level decisions there is not doing a good job.
And they really seem to have no plan for my region.
The whole indefinite timeline thing doesnāt cut it. I was good with 2023 delivery. But now my comfiguration has no timeframe at all. And it went from āservice? Donāt worry! Weāll come to you!ā To āweāre working on a plan for when weāll have a plan to plan a service centre in your region.ā
So, I still want one, but Iām not giving them any money unless they figure out how to not just kick the can down the road
I got this email as well. Am waffling on it. On one hand, not sure how much longer my current truck will keep running. On the other, do I really want it if it's a stripped down version of what I actually wanted? Choices... lol. Wish they would just give a delivery estimate. I.e., if "committing" now doesn't mean it will actually get the truck here any faster, what's the point? #shrugSo it looks like changing to the large pack worked. I just got an e-mail to confirm my configuration. What's the typical timeline once the config is confirmed?
If you confirm your config and start the 8 steps you will get your truck much much sooner than the max pack.I got this email as well. Am waffling on it.

In my BIG END OF OCTOBER UPDATE email they said āyour update will come in Januaryā but didnāt specify WHICH JanuaryThat plan is supposed to be made "public" sometime in January. At least they've started deliveries in the more interesting part of Canada
If you're a pessimist, they're just stringing us along as long as possible so we don't cancel. And/or trying to get us to change to a large pack.I believe that in an on-line interview in October, Tony C stated that more information would be coming in "weeks". It appears though that Rivian weeks are to actual calendar weeks as dog years are to calendar years.

From a financial standpoint, I'm sure they are juggling a blend of both preorder types at this stage. There are many here in Canada with similar order dates and no idea as to when or even if Rivian will be able to deliver to their area in any sort of reasonable time frame due to service centre rollout.THIS WILL MAKE SOME OF US VERY UNHAPPY PRE ORDER HOLDERS LIKE MYSELF ..... 2018.

I understand why that is annoying, but Rivian never promised anyone that vehicles would be delivered in the order they were placed. This is honestly the smartest thing they could do for their financial situation - deliver a mix of early pricing and later pricing. We are all lucky they are even giving us the early pricing at all. Ford has raised prices on the Lightning 4 times already.THIS WILL MAKE SOME OF US VERY UNHAPPY PRE ORDER HOLDERS LIKE MYSELF ..... 2018.
