R1 Bunnies

[Ohm Boy]

R1Ss are all over the place in the East Bay of CA. Not nearly as ubiquitous as Teslas (obviously), but gaining traction.

While we see every color represented throughout the week, I seem to be the only Compass Yellow rolling around ?

Yay Compass Yellow!! I had a 2002 XTerra that was bright yellow. My then 10 year old daughter chose the color and named the car Sponge Bob Square Fenders.

The Compass Yellow is an awesome color!!

On our trip to Winter Park, CO last week, I saw 2 in the first 4 days. But on our drive out on Saturday, I saw five, including 4 in areas where people were parked for back-country skiing. I think that speaks to their current market placement -- they seem to be doing quite well in the full-on adventure market, with less penetration in the family who likes active sports segment as yet.

LOVE the drive up and over Loveland Pass. Just at the major bend in the road going up from the south is the wonderful Henderson Mine snow show / cross country ski trail head.

Great that you saw that many!!

I see at least a couple a day here in OC. Mostly R1S’s

My wife and I drove a short distance this afternoon, about 15 minutes each way, and we saw 8 Rivians. 3 of them were R1S’s.

It was great to see, especially for my wife who in our process of de-Musk-ifying has an R1S on order. She had been a bit nervous about getting it because there are not many on the road. That is, there WERE not many on the road. And we’ll be a two Rivian family for which we are very grateful.

Them R1s are starting to be like bunnies.

Congratulations ?. We see quite a few of them. We are a two Rivian household as well. They are truly special vehicles.

Quite a few bunnies, both T and S's here in Colorado... Last night west bound on I 70 near Georgetown at -12 F OAT, I passed a very brave soul in a Green S pulling a 24' airstream..... My T was doing OK with range in the COLD but not sure I would have had the balls to pull a trailer.

Uh, er, um…. I was just looking at a map of Colorado charging stations and realized that I mistakenly wrote “Loveland Pass” when I should have written “Berthoud Pass”. Brain fart!! ? ?

I live in a relatively small ferry access only community in BC and I see 2 or 3 R1T's each week. Most everyone waves. Granted they are some of the 6 or 7 T's here on the Sunshine Coast but hey - we have a pop of about 30k people. I know the mayor of Sechelt has an S AND 2 T'S! Guy is interesting. Still, we have one of the largest per capita number of EV's in Canada.

I live in the midwest and rarely see another in a month. I also live in a small town so that may make it less likely to see more.
