May/June Deliveries Thread

[SeaGeo]

I am compelled to point out the closest service centre to Sioux Falls is in a suburb of Minneapolis, that’s like 3.5 hours driving. A leisurely jaunt by prairie standards ??

Suspect the Minneapolis service centre has lots of capacity to make deliveries to more faraway places compared to facilities in more densely populated areas.

I actually think he picked it up in KC IIRC. But the point remains. ?

Actually I think 3.5 hours is "ok" - they have delivered multiple trucks to Bend out of Portland and that's roughly 3.5 hours.

you can make that round trip in a day if you need too without too much stress.

i had my test drive today and I mentioned adventure trim deliveries to the Rivian employee. He said basically it mostly comes down to how ready areas are to service the vehicles - and that we're lucky in Oregon / Washington and that they weren't going to deliver a truck to someone in BFE who is nowhere near a center.

Not surprised at all by this. Going to suck for some LE holders, but they need to pump out trucks and deliver them as fast as they can.

I was originally in the May/June group. Just noticed I got my first guide contact on the 7th. Am I likely delayed or no? I'm in Chicago. Ordered Feb 2021. EDIT: 2020, sorry. Not 2021. Brainfart. It's an LE. Last config change appears to be late May 2021.

Most of us May-June people have not even been assigned a guide yet. So, no, I don’t think you are delayed.

So you ordered 6+ months after most of the folks in this group, but got the email in nov/dec that said you had a may/june delivery for what one has to assume is an adventure trim R1T - and now your'e saying you got a guide assigned at the end of last week.

I officially have no idea what they hell they are doing in Normal.

ETA: Standard disclaimer not accusing you of doing anything wrong and am happy for anyone who gets a truck, I just am confused. And, honestly, if I see someone cut in line in my day-to-day life, I lose my freakin' mind. So this is just feeding into all that - but you're not cutting, you're being called to the front which is 100% not anything you asked for.

Amen brother!

I ordered Jan 2019 and have June/July delivery. Sheesh!

It’s incredibly frustrating.

6 months before??? Add another year. Then another 6 months. Now you’re getting close…

I’m convinced that geographic areas and distance to a service center are a big factor in delivery windows.

 

[Inkedsphynx]

I'm sorry Rivian, but your delivery schedule process is fucking bullshit.

:headdesk:

I'm 15 freaking miles from the service center that has probably delivered the second most. It's got nothing to do with that in some cases.

I ordered August 2020 and have May / June - so that's where 6 months came from.

I mean yours is def something with FE. The BM offers are definitely from cancelled orders or something.

Oh crap. Feb 2020, not 2021. It's an LE. Ironically, I could actually use a delay. All my savings are in GME, it has likely 100% more shares than are supposed to exist and stock split hits in June/July at the earliest.
