- 2026 R1T
Yeah, so I originally spec'd out an LA silver R1T last July, but, but, but -- it was going to be a 9-12 week estimated delivery, which risked loosing out on the $7500 incentive. Not only does silver do the best job of hiding dirt, it was "free"If they follow the model of the R1's, they will charge extra for anything other than White or Silver. I think we paid $2,500 extra for our Rivian Blue.
So, Rivian calls and says like, we do have an R1T that has all your options EXCEPT it's in Forest Green, do you like Green?
Now, I happen to love green, it's my favorite color, I just don't like it $2500 MORE than silver! But at the time, I feared missing out on the $7500 incentive, so I agreed to get the green, spending $2500 to save $7500.
Then, a few weeks later, after I took delivery, the guv'ment says, okay, so long as you order by Sept, you still get the $7500!
And yes, the Forest Green looks great, when it's clean -- a drive or two later, you can absolutely see every spec of dirt. Ah, well, drats!
