Pay ahead of time..?

[Count Orlok]

My wire was sent the day before delivery.

Paying for the vehicle is not the same process as accepting delivery. You can still refuse delivery after your joy ride.

Don't stress it, after all, it is only money.

I wired the day before delivery to my house.

Also make sure your insurance ID card has at least 90 days expiration date ahead your pickup day. Rivian has kicked back ID cards (and halted deliveries) if the ID cards expire in under 90 days. Usually the temp ID cards expire in 30-45 days, that is insufficient.

How long does it take to get the money back that you wired them if you refuse delivery?

Spoke with my guide who is great so far! Anyways the truck is done and sitting at Normal waiting rail over to ATL SC. He says 4-6wks, but thinks it will be quicker and he should know movement by next week.

The interesting thing he said since I have all my steps done except Payment/Insurance is that I should start the wire transfer now..... I do not feel like I should have to wire anything until I have a schedule date for pickup. I have a loan for half the amount, and pre-approved with locked in rate for 30 days with BofA. The rest I am paying out of pocket for (Selling Mach-E) and will do a wire transfer as well via BofA.

My question is did anyone else wire money before they received a pickup date? I don't want to especially for the loan amount as I would have to start paying interest on that loan with no truck.

Insurance will be easy and can get added same day, so I have that part covered.

Getting excited and nervous all at the same time!

I didn't know they were still railing vehicles, my local SC mentioned it caused too many problems so they pivoted away from it earlier this year.

Regardless, no need to pay and bind insurance until the day before; or if you like causing extra stress by 2pm the day of if you have a late pickup time!

Congrats and be sure to post an update when you get it.

Well you could be like me and get a note from bank that check hasn’t been cashed for 3 months. I assume I’m not getting a free truck Lol.
