R2 order timeline data point: VIN assigned in "Steps" stage

[Hodags]

Question about the invite:

We were also a "first few minutes" reservation holder. I watched the full 2+ hours of the reveal. We immediately put our $100 down. We currently have a R1T, Quad, Large battery we have had for 3 years and love it.

Did the invite come in a text message, email or within the app?

email only for the "invitation to order" notification, I didn't get a text message until the next evening after I did the initial driver's license, address, etc. steps.

Seems odd thst the mostly very predictable stock and highest volume configuration for a day one purchaser is still 20 days out for delivery?

Agreed, seems like a pretty common config but maybe they're doing in batches or something, plus freight shipping time.. so, who knows.

I was debating Catalina or Launch Green, Tire/wheel type (21/AS vs 20/AT) and location (Denver or Colorado Springs, as they're about the same driving time for me) - and how it might effect delivery, but ultimately decided that they probably are all pretty popular so went with my top choice... then I see someone got their Catalina+20/AT in Colorado Springs already and was a little disappointed that it maybe could have been me ..

It’s interesting. I put in my reservation within the first couple minutes or so as well. I’ve owned three Rivians, live close to the Louisville, CO service center but still haven’t gotten an invite. I wonder if the fact that I leased an R1S last year, plays into the equation. Do they think that someone that leased a Rivian last year would be less likely to buy this year? Now, in my situation, this is exactly the case. So it isn’t a big deal at all. I’m just curious.
