I placed my order for an In Shop R1S first week in November. Two weeks later I recieved the invite to start the purchase task (my R1S was still at the factory). I upload everything I could and when I got to lease financing, it said our team is calculating local taxes and fees check back in 1-2 days. Two weeks later it says the same thing. My delivery date is December 18. When I checked with sales rep he said be patient. It seems like calculating the taxes and fees should be easy. Anyone else experiencing this delay in completing the purchase/lease task?

When I ordered my R1S off the shop it took like 30 seconds to calculate my lease numbers.

Maybe it was different for me because I took delivery of an in-stock vehicle. I put deposit in on Tuesday, got a call 15 minutes later to come pick up, got the lease info on Wednesday, picked up on Friday. I actually had them change the terms (mileage) on Thursday. Picked up on Friday. Do you have a ranger? Mine was very pretty helpful and responsive with this stuff.

I just signed an order for an R1s that was in stock and was going to trade in a 7 year old Toyota hybrid but ended up selling it to CarMax for $5k more than Rivian’s offer. Each step of the process was easy and fast with great communication from Rivian and Chase, including the change on the trade-in. The car was ready for pickup in 10 days and the whole automated process through the Rivian app was impressive.

I had a lease AND a financing offer ready to sign in an hour. First, I went through the lease, didn't like the MF, and had to contact Rivian to reset it. They then did, I filled out the financing and was approved with an offer within that previously mentioned hour timeframe. I'm not sure what's up with your case, but mine was very quick.
