Hi All,
I figured I would try and start a "Master thread" for new owners with their reservations, custom shop orders. I have some info that might be helpful, when your getting the where is my truck/SUV bug in the shipping process. I'll post my experience so far while waiting for delivery, hopefully it cam help some.
First off, I placed a shop/available inventory order on March 8th 2024, the truck is in route to be delivered this Friday March 29th 2024. If that helps with timeline. The info I have is hard to place in order, so I'll try to organize it.
Some detailed info below:
I'll continue to update this thread with more info as it's flooding out of my head. Please feel free to ask me anything, I am happy to help, I know what's its like with the waiting game. I planned on purchasing since 2018.

Some detailed info below:
- Order Area code: 92082 (San Diego)
- Ordered on PC
- Shipped from IL Factory
- Stopped at Salt Lake City Service Center (sometime around March 26th) SD Service center text message after inquiry
- "Hi shayne! Your vehicle is shipping from our service center in Salt Lake City. We're working with our logistics team to get it here in time for your appointment, but will keep you posted if it arrives sooner or if there are any delays."
- I inquired to see if the vehicle left Salt Lake City, UT today at 8:30AM (I been without a vehicle and two kids so I need to plan)
- For my order, it was shipped flat bed
- It appears they use different shippers and perform trade off stops through different states. They stopped/checkpointed from IL at the UT service center
- If you receive a delivery text message, that is for your delivery location/service center. Like Tesla, if I called or reached out they were actually able to provide info my guide either did not know or wouldn't provide. My guide was adamant on just saying the vehicle is in route and we can't delivery any sooner than the March 29th date.
- I found out texting this number with any question regarding your vehicle shipping/delivery, they should be able to provide you updates same day +- a few hours later.
- I've hd multiple questions regarding delivery and tracking that have all been answered by this service center number via text. I was surprised it was this easy.

Leasing/finance Agreements:
- It appears these are sent via email about 1-2 days before delivery. They will need to be signed the day before unless your guide gets permission on same day of delivery or you will be rescheduled
Insurance:
- For some states Rivian requires the vehicles vin to be displayed on the policy and the ID card has to be valid for 90 days and provided a few days before delivery. (California does not require this)
Deliveries:
- There is weekend scheduling (especially during end of quarter pushes). The service centers will do both Saturday and Sundays.
- Try to lock in the earliest time possible for delivery because you can only move it back after delivery date is set, unless you get lucky with a Guide that will help you out by watching for cancelations.
