Interesting results. Towards the beginning of the poll the numbers were very favorable that Rivian would send out the comm's on time. Towards the end of the Poll people are more skeptical. Well, today through Monday is the crunch time to see who will be right!

Cautiously optimistic is the Rivian way

Remember all it is is a delivery window....that may be extended for certain circumstances at anytime.

We are waiting with bated breath. We have never had a delivery window. With an 11/18 preorder, they must still be serving those ahead of us in line.

I think there is a distinct difference between "adding a delivery date" to your account/web page and actually having that date be "accurate"
I believe it's quite likely and not very much work to add a UI element to a website that displays a field from a database by the end of this month.
My point being - They can add the element now - easily - and should display what they feel is their current best guess. Meanwhile in the background they can optimize their delivery algorithm to try and get more and more realistic dates going forward. So while I think they'll update their website and add a new element to it "on time", I think anyone believing that the delivery of that UI component (seeing a date or number on the screen) implies ANY sort of hard/magical/set in stone delivery date breakthrough in conjunction with simply updating some HTML and JavaScript is likely to be disappointed.
So yeah, I'm optimistic we'll get a web UI update by end of month. I don't expect much more than that.
