Wife is going nuts over this.

I went with a Model Y Performance. I estimate I will receive my R1S in Q2-Q3 2024. So I have a while to use the Model Y Performance

Well, for those hoping for the F150 Lightning... unless you are going for a Platinum or Lariat... you won't be getting it until 2023 according to a just leaked dealer doc.

XLT and Pro are 2023, fleet orders are in a separate queue it sounds like.

Anyone considering Cadillac Lyriq, Nissan Ariya, toyota bz4x, Lexus RZ450e, Kia EV6, GV60, BMW IX, porsche macan ev, audi q6 e tron, ……..?

I have a Lyriq order in place. Should get it springtime. I don’t expect that it will be “enough” to cancel my R1S first half 2023 reservation. But it might replace my 2018 Model S which will be out of bumper to bumper warranty in April.

My wife really wants another 3-row SUV. The Lucid Gravity is the only EV on the radar that could pull us away from the R1S. We had a Model X originally, but weren't very happy with it. I would consider the new Model X refresh but it starts at $105k and has the stupid yoke steering wheel. So it's not even a consideration. The R1S is such a better vehicle for the price.

We like the R1S but it's way more off-road capable than we need. We would prefer a luxury SUV with longer range over the off-road performance of the R1S. So if Lucid can delivery an ultra-efficient luxury 3-row SUV that looks decent, it will be on our short list. A lot will depend on how Rivian delivers over 2022. So far the reviews of the R1T have been spectacular, but the delays are less than encouraging. The Lucid Air has been getting spectacular reviews as well, so I'm assuming their SUV could be very appealing.

F-150 Lightning and Hummer - since we are being hypothetical.

This is pretty much the same for us although in our case 3 row is a requirement and not an option.
We don't need crazy horsepower or incredible off-road capability, those are just cool features/bonuses of the R1S for us.

Most interested in learning more about the Gravity and Buzz.
The Ford Explorer and Lincoln Aviator could be a possibility but those are in 2024 at the earliest.

We're looking to add a second car in 2022 and definitely want to go the EV route, but the market right now is just not good. I'm holding out that Rivian can actually deliver my R1T on the July-October timeframe I was given. Otherwise, very interested in the Polestar 3 or even the Ioniq 5. Sadly, still slim pickings in the EV market. Hoping that changes by time we're ready to replace our current car in the next 1-2 years and decide if we're a two EV household or just one.

Lucid Gravity is high on my list of interests. I don’t need all of the off road capability and would much prefer a luxury SUV.

1/100th hp 1/10 price. Why can’t we buy this:

VW will launch the ID.Buzz March 9th as a 2024 model year with deliveries starting in 2023. Single and dual motor varients available with 300 mile expected range.

I plan on putting in a day 1 order for whatever launch/special edition they offer.

I am loosing track of all my reservations. Before I know it, it will be a car worth of money on $100 reservations but It does sound tempting.

At the moment I'm expecting to get both the R1S and Buzz in 1H 2023, which is also around the time we will likely need some extra seating capacity in the family. I'm willing to shell out a few extra $$ on the Buzz to get to the front of the line.

On the R1S I'd actually take the smaller battery option when it gets announced as long as it doesn't push back delivery significantly.
